So am I your slave or am I giving up my submission to you?

I went out last night and had a real good conversation about the difference between being submissive and being a slave, we both kind of looked at being a slave as a hard thing to see our self's as. Both of us being of mixed race I think is why we had such a hard time with the words but then as we were talking about being submissive and finding out what that meant to us. I realize I give up my submission to my husband he is who I have choose to spend the rest of my life with, now I don't know how that will look and I know it might have many struggles but I married my best friend and I would never change that be a lesbian or not I married my best friend. I will talk more on all the struggles of being a lesbian married to a man. Wow I almost can't wait to read about it LoL
