Why are you a little/what do you like most about it?

[curlyheadspace]

Hi

I guess it's now very wise question but yeah... why are you a little or what do you like most about it?

 

I personally have no reason to be a baby/little, it's just the way I am. Some people like to feel the lack of responsibility that being a baby/little brings. But that's not what I like at all. I love to take care of many things and I want to be that little helper in everything to my Daddy. But he seems to think I am and wants me to be completely helpless (e.g. wash me, feed me, dress me up). So that gives us another question... what are your Daddies like and how do they like to take care of you?

I can't explain why I'm little. It had just become apparent to me when I started to deviate from my friends in likes, dislikes, and romantic partners. I was thrilled to find that other people felt like me though.

My Daddy takes on more of a CG role, and cares for me by meeting almost every need. He's so sweet, tender, understanding, and gentle. His personality really shines through whether he takes me shopping, cooks meals, helps me bathe etc.

Ditto it's just a part of who I am. It's kinda fascinating to think about. I'm also a very independent and don't feel the need for someone to take care of me all the time. I'm also a middle so I'm older which generally wouldn't include stuff like giving me a bath but for some people it might.

 

It doesn't say anywhere that a little has to need every tiny need met by their big/cg. If that's not you it doesn't change that you're just as legitimate of a little than anyone else. It sounds like your daddy isn't totally understanding what you want and need. Have you talked to him about expecting / wanting something from you that doesn't fit who you are?

I've always been a little without knowing it, it's just how I am naturally! I too don't necessarily enjoy the lack of responsibility to the point where I make my daddy cook for me or for daddy to clean up for me... those are still my duties as a sub but I like the environment around me when I feel little with my daddy around. It makes me feel safe, loved and cared for in a way that is very comforting! Whilst the idea of being taken of completely (being fed and washed) is appealing and nice every now and then, I don't think that's an integral part of feeling little for me, it's more just a headspace in which I can be safe to be myself. I'd be happy just being cuddled and pet in little space so long as I could take the time to be like that in a place and with a person who will not judge me for my actions. 

 

My daddy is extremely caring!! He is not much different when I am in little space... apart from being more soft spoken, different topics of conversation and more willing to encourage my silly conversations on a whim. We aren't in the dynamic where I am little to the extent that I need to be looked after in every way since I don't think that's something we've ever spoken about wanting, but he watches me play with my stuffies and make a tremendous amount of mistakes when I'm talking.   He takes care of me in many ways.. some less noticeable than others which I am entirely grateful for.. I think you need to talk to your daddy about you want out of feeling little since it has to be making both sides happy!

I became a little to cope with anxiety, and depression. I've always come off as this very sensitive, child=like, girl. and loved to be nurtured, and cared for by my fiance(Daddy) even before either of us knew what being little, or DD/lg even was. When we found out about it it just seemed like a natural fit for us,

 

Being little makes me feel safe and cared for. It's not so much the lack of responsibility for me it's more the care-free aspect that I like. Some nice warm milk in my cuppy, surrounded by stuffies, cuddled with Daddy, and watching My Little Pony is basically my happy place. It reduces my anxiety, and can even stop an attack in it's tracks (:

I actually didn't realize lots of my actions and responses were little. I thought I was weird and tried to suppress it in order to be a good sub and less of a crazy person. But I have the most amazing mentor and she suggested I attend the littles ROMP at Beyond Leather. Suddenly adult me was in the backseat and I was childlike. It was amazing, didn't even try to regress it just happened and when I realized how right it felt I started doing my research and realizing all the things I was trying to suppress is what makes me little and it's part of who I am. So long story short I didn't become little, it was always a part of me and I just never knew it.

 

I don't have a Daddy but I am in service to my Sir which helps feed my submissive side and he does little things to support little me. Suggesting I get coloring pages when we go to restaurants, using a baby voice with me when he's being silly and some other things. But he knows he can't be a Daddy and he keeps me safe and offers advice while I am looking.

I didn't realize that I was a little until recently. I always felt a part of me was trying to stay a kid. My Daddy has guided me and helped me to see how much I would benefit from going into my little space. I didn't have a good childhood at all and never got to experience being a kid. I have severe anxiety and depression and I feel so much better giving into my little self. I'm more calm and comfortable and I love that my Daddy takes care of me and supports me no matter what. He is so patient and loving. We have kids and that has also helped me to discover that I am a little. They are so happy and carefree and I love being in that place with them.

I just thought I was a quirky weirdo until I discovered ddlg. 

 

My Daddy is demanding. I mostly take care of myself (basic needs) and dote on him but that's how we like it.

It sounds like your daddy isn't totally understanding what you want and need. Have you talked to him about expecting / wanting something from you that doesn't fit who you are?

I did recently and we've reached a compromise.

That's awesome! Glad to hear it.

I need guidance, structure, and discipline. Like a lot of littles, it also helps me deal with anxiety&depression issues. It alsobjust feels right & super natural to me.

[daddys.princess]

I'm a little because it's naturally in my personality (I was always childish and very little-like even before I found out what DD/lg was.) However, I also like to think I'm little because as said above, I need guidance, structure, discipline and someone to take care of me. Due to past trauma I haven't really had someone protect me and take care/care about me the way a CG would, so maybe that's another reason why. My favorite thing about little space is probably.. just being a little in general, and also having someone to look after me.
