fungasm -> RE: Online Mistress? (8/19/2007 8:12:25 AM)

Here's some data on my online construct. About 85% of the people who reply to me (despite my being really specific about this being a virtual construct) actually want a Real Time Mistress. I send them here or to Max Fisch. Of those who begin the challenge, about 1 out of 3 will really get into it. These are the ones who do the challenge everyday, and really look into where it takes them in their head. For some it enhances what they do in the real world. 1 out of three will want to keep getting the challenges as "interesting/fascinating/etc" reading material, but they won't actually be doing them everyday. The last third will either find that the challenges are not what they expected, or that their personal/home life is suffering because they are paying too much attention to The Challenge and not doing anything else., or they met someone in their life to play with and want to focus there. Online doesn't work for those who need real touch and commitment. It also doesn't work for those whose triggers are delicate/personal- if the brush or breath on your back, or a look is what takes you to subspace, online will never be a substitute. Also if you need risk, than online really won't satisfy that for you. And if you want a real relationship with more to it than just sexual exploring, you have to find a real time partner. It does work for those who have the imagination, dedication and the intelligence to to push their buttons. There are some of us- and I'm definitely in this crew, where we spend a lot of time in our own head. Having someone else direct our thoughts and actions in one part of your life can be fun- without risk or harm. Two things I didn't expect when I went from real time to online in my professional life: a deeper emotional commitment and that it would help people find more of what they really wanted. It makes sense though. On average, my toys and I write back and forth about 6 times a day. We share a lot more together than any hour/three hours I ever spent with someone. As for helping people, I find myself being a virtual wing woman a lot. I'm not the relationship they really want, but I'm there with advice and wicked ideas while they search for their own happily ever after. The fabulous thing is, once they have their brain distracted and they have an emotional backup (so they aren't so bloody desperate), it's easier to find what they want. A number of folks have only lasted a week or two and then they find something promising... I'm crossing my fingers that they stay happy. Alison
