Sneaking Sweets When I Was Told Not To

Anonymous Velvet Doll #324 · General Confessions

So, yeah, this is a little embarrassing. You know how when you’re told not to do something it makes you want to do it even more? That happened to me the other day. My partner was pretty clear that she wanted me to avoid all those delicious cookies she just bought for herself. But...well, let's say my self-control wasn't at its best. Before I knew it, I had a couple of bites and felt pretty guilty about it. She caught me with crumbs on my face later and gave me a little lecture, which is part of our dynamic. We laughed it off eventually, but honestly, the guilt of breaking her trust stuck with me for a while. Now I’m left thinking more about discipline in general, not just the literal stuff but also how we handle these small, sneaky moments when we let ourselves slip up.
