@CordeliSystem Imagine reaching the state where you can't do anything without your partner telling you so. You wanna leave this room? No you don't, your partner didn't say you could. Want a snack. Not yet, your partner scheduled that 40 minutes from now. Wanna play a game? Too late, bedtime
having your partner hypnotize you each day
more and more
starting to put drugs into your food so you give in even easier
so you are under their control more often
being slightly aware that your freedom slowly shrinks and shrinks
yet still giving in with no worry, pure bliss
