I've been doing a lot of reflection recently and wanted to share some thoughts. For me, a mother's love is the ultimate expression of love in its purest form. So when I call a significant other Mommy, it means everything to me. They mean everything to me. I love mommy dom and want to find someone who's genuinely into it someday, but I couldn't start calling them Mommy right away. It's like saying, "I love you". You wouldn't say that right off the bat. It needs to be earned. I feel the same way about the title Mommy. If I feel safe enough to let go completely because my SO loves me for who I am then I see them as my Mommy.

I know not everyone has had a great relationship with their real mom. Mine was far from perfect, did a lot of things wrong, but everything was done out of a place of love. And I think it plays into how I select romantic partners. I completely believe people subconsciously seek out partners similar to their parents. I guess I take it a bit more literal.

I wonder if anyone else sees the title of Mommy as something similar to saying, "I love you". I know some people like to call someone Mommy after just talking for a little, but it would feel weird to me.
