Expert: Master Shadow - 2/26/2009

Question
I've been with my Master for 3 1/2 years now and during that time we've had no disipline problems at all.  I obey him completely and do everything for him.  We are not married but we're as close as we can possibly be and are together quite often.  Saturday, he told me not to drive due to a slight eye problem so someone else was driving me to an appointment.  At the last minute after I was already in the car, the person who was going to drive me decided not to take me.  It was too late to cancel the appointment so I drove myself.  When Master asked me later about my appointment, with no hesitation, I told him the truth that I had driven myself.  He is extremely upset with me, told me that I'm not worthy to be his slave any longer and that he is thinking that he is going to release me.  He also told me that he already knew the person didn't take me because he had called my house and the person answsered the phone.  That was a lie because I scrolled through all the numbers on my phone for that day, there was only one and that was my son.  I'm not sure why he felt the need to lie to me, but my question is, isn't releasing me over one disobedience a severe penalty for a Master/slave couple who have been together for 3 1/2 years with no other disobediences?  Please help me.

Answer
I would agree that release for such an infraction sounds extreme to say the least. Perhaps there is more here than meets the eye, and He seeks to release you for any reason possible, or perhaps He was expecting an apology, and a promise that you would never do it again, but would call Him for advice immediately. Only you can decide this.

In your defense, I would point out the flawless record up to this point, and once again apologize, with the promise to never disobey again. As to why He lied, only He can know that answer, and I would not hazard to guess. In either case, I wish you, and He well in Y/your Journey in the Lifestyle, and hope for a speedy resolve of your problem.
