ORIGINAL: DiurnalVampire Nick, this isnt your personal mision to bash dommes. It tends to be all about us, becasue WE are the ones that the submissives want to serve. Not vice versa. However, mentioning what you want is NOT a bad thing. If it sounds like an actual request for punishment, and not a corney line out of a bad porno. When a submissive talks about enjoys a Domme that will punish them, and a Domme that enjoys punishing is looking, then theres a match made in heaven. When a sub puts something like "Ive been bad" then it sounds like they are looking for nothing more than wank fodder and we move along. Talk more about yourself, what you want and what you are offering. Set yourself apart, why would we want you as opposed to the tons of others that are looking. What makes you a catch? Talk about yourself as much as youd like, not in terms of I need or I want, but I would like and I I would like to share... Put a little more effort into making yourself noticable and you will get noticed. There is too much competition on here to be a minimalist. DV Think about it this way, if a female sub had the exact profile as mine or the OPs, she would get lucky within minutes on this site. But it takes most average looking guys years or they will never get it. It's been 5 years for me. Do you think men are validated to complain about this? The women (sub or domme) seem to complain about getting too much attention while any male is seen as a pathetic whiner for complaining about getting no attention. Who has the bigger problem and why is it validated to complain about the less bothersome problem but not the bigger problem? When a male is getting no attention, everyone automatically puts the blame on him and they over look the fact that the women on these sites are so judgmental and picky it's just about impossible for the average looking guy to get what he wants. No matter how I present myself, my average looking status wont even qualify for the below average looking women on this site. Its not fair. ... Not that I disagree with you all that much, but you're pissing against the wind, my friend. No, it's not fair. It's not fair that you're "average looking" (to who, btw?), and it's not fair that there are 1000 "do-me" Dommes to every one genuine sub/bottom/whatever (or whatever the ratio is this week), and it's not fair that the Ladies (and ladies) here are inundated with mail while our inbox is empty most of the time. Those are the cards we're dealt, dude. And if you think this is some kind of CollarMe or kink-centric problem, you're sorely mistaken. In the mating game -- wherever you choose to play it -- you aren't entitled to anything. If you want a desirable partner, you're gonna have to work for her -- you have to scratch and claw and sweat and suffer and compete, and even then you still don't get any guarantees. You can thank evolutionary biology for that. I wish I had better news, but near as I or anyone else can tell, that's the sitch. Here's my advice to the OP: 1. Forget you are on a kinky dating site or a site dealing with alternative sexuality. Forget it. Just... forget it. You're not seeking a pro, right? (obviously some are, and pro Dommes have a legitimate right to be here and that's ok, but I assume you're not looking for a pro, because if you haven't found one of those after seeking for years, you're in REALLY bad shape) And you're not seeking a "money domme" who's simply trolling to get inside your wallet, right? (I do make a distinction between opportunistic "money dommes" and power exchange thru responsible financial domination, which I do think can be pursued ethically) Well, first off, you want to make yourself as uninteresting to those people as possible, and the best way to do that is to make it clear you are a human being looking to establish a non-pro, non-money-related (or not solely money-related, lol) relationship with another human being. The pros and opportunistic money dommes will avoid you like the plague. To paraphrase Tyler Durden: you are not your obsessive bundle of kinks. 2. Take inventory of your strengths, and yes, what you have to offer. Are you smart? Do you do interesting work? Do you have some kind of skill? Are you good with relationships? Do you have a fascinating hobby? What do you like to talk about? What is interesting about you? Are you rich? Whatever answers you get from all of those questions, focus your profile on those. 3. Get a hot picture, or as hot a picture as can reasonably taken of you. If you don't take good pictures to start with (like most of us), this process will suck and be embarassing and take a long time. Too bad. 4. Reply to EVERYBODY who writes you, even if they are not a good match. At the very least, say something nice and thank them for writing. 5. Participate in the forums. Be mindful that people are always checking you out, but be yourself. 6. Never, ever, under any circumstances are you to LIE about ANYTHING. Ever. Do those things, and you will not be looking for a Mistress in 5 years. I guarantee it.
