RE: How did you meet your partner?

My pet and I met on a yahoo list for a local kink group.I had posted a question about how other Dom/mes help the new comers to the lifestyle(as the party before I had let a scared one flog my backside knowing she could not harm me and it would help ease her fears which it did and by the end of the evening she felt leather kiss her flesh) I guess something made my lovely lil shy one post an intro.Well now to be fair I responded at first due to the fact that I had spent so many years on the board of a group and I was used to helping newbies relax a bit and answer any questions. Well I wish I could remember everything he wrote as with each post via MyDungeonSpace he warmed My soul.Please note I had not had a *boy* in many many years by choice,so it was something that he managed to melt through and get to my heart .We actually spoke via Im/Pms for a few months and every few weeks I would remind him about the upcoming party to which he would come up with one reason or another to not attend .... when he finally promised to attend a party(this group does not offer munches) He was so nervious and to help ease his fears a bit we even came up with a code (which was if he was interested in exploring *more than friendship* relationship with me he would kneel before me at some point during the party)Now please note I knew such an act would not be easy for this shy one but I wanted him to feel he had the ball in his court(and he did)He was so worried ... and when he stepped out of the car ... after introducing ourselves .... we spoke and walked,I lost any since of being *cool*...I couldn't take my eyes off of him and proved this by almost smacking my face into a large suv that I didn't seem to notice in my path.he later confided that such a *goober* moment helped him to relax and see that I too am human,not sure if he thought he was going to meet one of those green chicks captain kirk always messed with or what but none the less my being lost in his appearance and almost causing facial damage proved I was human ~Laughs thinking back ~

Now the party .. oh heavens it was crowded and I was having fun visiting with some I had not seen in a long time,introducing him to everyone I knew and the hours ticked by .. he never knelt .. once he squatted and I got my hopes up but no ...
~Sighs with a grin~
I had resigned myself in we shall be friends,and at the end of the evenin,we were all in the social area chatting and here comes this adorable one standing before me as I sat and visited .he caught my attention by saying something that didn't suit the converstation yet it was soft enough only I could hear .. he said* well now that there is a bit more room* and suddenly knelt with great ease and with this lovely smile over his lips... well folks I am here to tell you I squeeled like a drunken school girl and was drowning in serious GooberDomme ... as those around who knew me only saw me as a playful yet serious Mistress who loved to play in the edgier ways and most certainly did not scream like that ... but I was so taken back and shocked (remember hours before I had resigned to the boy wishes to remain friends and not explore more)So all in the area turned and couldn't help but laugh as they see me giggling my lily white arse off .. some even came out of the dungeon to see the sight of Mistress Joy blushing due to the case of the squeels and giggles .. this of course made my shy lilone rise and sit as he saw soooooo many curious about what made me react and then blush and giggle.
Little did he or I know that we would be here today .. he accepted my collar and made me the happiest Mistress around. he is my kitten,pet,sub,love ...wrapping it all into one simple term.. he is my joy.
