HouseDV8 -> RE: Googling a prospective Dominant/Play partner (2/29/2008 7:41:26 AM)

OK, so from a person that is completely "googleable"...which i am pretty sure is a word this board just made up...here is my 2 cents... First...there is ALWAYS a point to googling a person...even if you find nothing...if there were something very bad to find then you would find it...finding nothing is a good first sign...if you are looking for that type (low profile) of person...personally i like it when i find out all kinds of things because the person is either an activist or a professional that has had a great deal of success...i prefer the activist myself, but the successful subby is always a nice thing to have around...when you are as successful as we are there are a lot of mooches hanging around all that time...just shook one off last Sept that clung for 2 years and even managed to get herself moved in...for a few months. Second...it is helpful to google the correct info...for instance...if you were to google Danielle DV8 you will find stuff...but if you were to google my professional name (as opposed to my scene name) you would find a lot more...i am still debating if i want to give it to you or not, or if i want to sit back and see who already knows or who is clever enough to take 10 seconds to find out. Then again, clever and motivated are not the same thing, LOL. Third, google is only a start. You had better have some other ways of checking a person out that have nothing to do with what others have said about him/her. i do a clinic on intuition that is fantastic for people that have a history of poor choices...partners, scenes, finances, whatever...it is also great for anyone with insecurities (that is all of us), people new to the scene, and really, even those that are already highly intuitive because it can help them to teach, or explain to others, just how they do it. That clinic is not much help in this venue though...so what i would say for now...if you are one of those people with absolutely abysmal taste in partners...and you know who you are!!!...you really need to find a friend that has WAY BETTER radar than you do...and next time you have a prospective partner in mind...let them approve or disapprove the person first...and then...this is the very hard part...LISTEN TO THEM. Remember this...we all have intuition...is is just a matter of whether we know how to feel it or not, and whether we know how to heed it or not. Probably, on some level, you knew that person was not a good choice for you...but you did not listen. Here is what i have to say to you: BY THE TIME YOU HAVE PROOF THAT YOUR INTUITION WAS RIGHT IT IS TOO LATE!!!!!!! So the next time you have that feeling...that off feeling, that just not right feeling...but the person seems so nice...and people seem to like her/him...go ahead and listen to it...you did not miss out on a thing but heartache.
