Candid admissions..

What makes it so difficult to make candid admissions, when folks make a mistake?

Why do people have a problem talking about mistakes, in general, try to hide or cover them up, or pretend they do not happen, or blame something or someone else?

Moreover, why is it so much easier to do finger-pointing, then indicating he or she was wrong?

I feel that as a society, we are more geared at assigning blame, than actually solving problems and basically all relationship dynamics, across the board, can get rather ugly when the individuals involved just want to focus on who's fault it is, instead of focusing on the problem not happening again.

However, in the lifestyle, community, subculture, or whichever us folks deem to refer to it, this is highly magnified.

In a power-exchange relationship, what is the "Domly" thing to do?

Should we admit a mistake, to make corrections, or point the finger at the submissive and make him or her find the solution?

Or, deal with the lack of a solution, that state of error, in fact, becomes the new normal?

At what critical juncture, is it okay to say: No, this is not working at all?

I would like to hear the viewpoints and wisdom of people in ALL relationship dynamics, and if this happened to you:

What were the circumstances surrounding the issue(s), and what was the resolution?
