Am I completely insane to go to his home for our first meeting? Shall I ask for information to leave someone? Should I be worried?

you asked the right questions...now take the advice everyone is giving you...never go to a private place for a first meeting

I'm sorry, but to say "if you have any doubts at all, then we won't meet.  Prove to me you trust me by meeting at my house" sounds insane to me.  He is then getting you to prove you are trusting by going along with his false dichotomy.  He is basically saying "my way or the highway."  And it is dangerous.

You live in NYC--if you really want to play the first time, go to Paddles.  I'd never do it because of my job, but, you'd be safe there--they have monitors there.  You won't be dead and you will be able to stop it.

If you go ahead with this (which I really hope you don't ), make sure also that you aren't tied up the first time.  If he wants to restrain you, let him use thread and punish you if you break the thread.  Or hold nickels against the wall, or whatever.  But, in my opinion, going to his home isn't safe, but it is even more dangerous to be helpless.

This is a nice sentiment and there is a lot of wisdom here, but nothing can replace your perspective, which we really are only catching a brief, fuzzy glimpse of, and your relationship, which is revealed to us even less. It's good to lurk and read. I think probably most of us learn something most of the time; but putting all of your faith in what is posted here? I wouldn't recommend that to anyone. I wish you well.

Uh...I would not really consider the forums to be your bible. They are fun, informative, entertaining, hot, etc. but nothing replaces good old common sense and obeying that inner voice, that is first thing to obey, not some dude.

Kali, although I really do appreciate your concern, please understand He is not pushing me into anything. We've been doing the onine thing for a while now. I think it's time for us to meet, just the fact that it's in his "turf" makes me nervous.


why can't he come to NYC and meet you on your turf... not your home... in a public place...

Lilred, read the above by Blackwolf.  There are posters on this forum who would accept that as part of their relationship, whether they gave consent or not, you should never ever consider these forums your bible.  Think of it as a big family reunion.  Lots of noise and yelling over the top of other people to get heard, lots of laughter, some people are going to really get on your nerves, but you will hear tonnes of great stories, and if you stick around long enough someone will get drunk enough to dance on the tables.

How could the forums be your bible?  How do you pick who to agree with?  We don't know what's going on with most of these people that ask questions, while I think they are a source of information and exploration, a bible is a stretch really.

I would really consider the public meeting and see how it goes.  Although you've been online for awhile, people lie or turn out to be much different in person when emotion and attraction are added into the mix.

Be careful!

lilred, why are you going to his home for the first meet?  Do lunch or coffee or something that has you in a public place.  The internet is a nice tool, but it doesn't determine the character of a man/woman behind the proverbial curtain.

I'm with windchymes, I like playing doctor with my Sir! Dang, why does He have to be asleep.

On a serious note OP~ there's no reason for you not to meet him in a public place. Although I've only had one Sir (one year on the 29th of December thank you very much!) I feel safe to say if a man that has never met you is asking you to come to his home, and feels that this is "ok" he isn't going along with SS&C, or at least all of them.  Please, listen to that inner voice, if you're having the slightest doubt don't go to his place.

be well

Well, I'm not recommending it or not recommending it, but people should be aware that going to the home of someone you just met in a bar or whatever is hundreds of times more dangerous than going to the home of someone you met on the internet.

While i tend to agree with You LAM, the difference here is if i met a guy in a bar and go to his home and he rapes me and i have to call the police to get me out of there...i can pretty much gurantee (sp) that they will charge him with rape and He'll be outof jail the next day...
However, if i go to his home with someone i met online and he rapes me it means i'm subjected to the whole bullshit mentality of " well You met them online what did You think was going to happen"....So, i see Your point, but i think the reality is on some level it is a little bit more dangerous as there's no accountability.

It's always a personal judgement call, from the other side we would not let a potential sub, slave into our house, there could be hidden agendas there as well. I agreee with those who say if you want a relationship there should be no problem meeting each other in a publica place the first few time. And how many have actually met and found out that the profile pic did not make the representation it was meant to be? And very true as it was said earlier, what if you don't like the body odor? I will even go as far as running a personal backgorund check I - they're only $49 - and for sexual offenders, that search is free.
The way we like to do it is exchange of emails and IMs plus ph conversations, then meetings in public which might include a meeting at a dungeon - we'll meet at the entrance and part on the way out. After this we can move on to the private stuff. Just to protect all of us.
I think you have gotten a lot of great advice from the other posters. I wich you all the best and remember, if this one does not work - ther WILL be another.

Well, unless you have real experience with cases this, I don't see how you can make such judgments.  Sounds like a pair of preconceived notions to me--and questionable ones at that.  From what I've seen, most law-enforcement agencies are pretty eager to pursue internet-related crime.

Well, if you've learned anything from the forums, then you've learned that there are plenty of conflicting opinions on a range of subjects...
 
Personally, I don't find anything all that psycho about meeting someone in their home. It would, generally, be preferrable to me to meet in a public place but I can certainly imagine circumstances where I would prefer a private evening. Honestly, my advice would be to do what you feel comfortable with.

this is why i'm a firm believer of meeting in a public place with LOTS of other people in the room so i won't be putting myself in a seriously dangerous situation.

being submissive doesn't mean you leave your brains at the door, dear.  and i agree with LA, you sound worried about this meeting perhaps you should rethink and/or reschedule until you feel comfortable about meeting him ...and this time pick a public place.

Trust your instinct.
 
I met my guy 3 years ago at his house.  With all safety measures in place.  No expectations of 'scening' or sex.
 
Keep in mind you might be safer first meeting in a public place.  Also keep in mind he can always rape, mame, beat and murder you on the second or third meeting -- at his house.

You've not said how long the 2 of you have been talking, for me that is a large part of my determing factor.If it has been just a couple of months then I would say go meet him but stay in a nearby hotel and not his home. That gives you the advantage of having your own space, not being reliant upon him for a place to sleep and the marginal safety of the hotel staff. If however you have been talking to him for 6 months and have verified the details of his life and you feel okay with it then I would say meet him, eat a meal in public then decide. See how he acts in person, if there is a connection make sure you have a safety network set up and yes go to his home. But only if you have actually verified his information such as workplace, real name etc. I think that in general it is not a wise idea to spend the first time you meet in an enclosed place of his. That leaves you very vulnerable. When I met R it was in a city of mutual distance and in a hotel. I felt safer knowing his full history because we had been friends and talking for a year.  If you have a cam phone you may have a pic taken of the two of you and tell him you're sending it to a friend. Heh I just thought of that one. Remember to listen to your instincts and try to not get carried away by the excitement of meeting him.

You yourself are questioning your own sanity for doing something. That to me says that you KNOW it's not a great idea.

Personally, I always meet up for coffee first, with the understanding that we COULD go to his house if I am comfortable with that after meeting him.
