a few things. i would advise you to re-work your profile in a few areas. first and foremost i would take out the bit about your being fresh from an abusive relationship. (ducking behind a desk to avoid the flames) the main reason i say this, is it implies you haven't had the time to regroup and work through your issues. and while i'm sure there are pleanty of dommes who wouldn't worry about a healed abuse survivor, the raw wounds are something few are going to want to deal with. but don't hold back from discussing it in either your journal, or after the first e-mail or two. let it be known, just not as the very first thing a person reads about you. second. talk about your interests. and i mean the kind you do with your clothes on. do you have a burning love for french poetry? do you hate frogs? what are your goals and general aspirations? WHO ARE YOU? because lets face it, every sub/slave on this site wants to be the best sub/slave they can be. and every sub/slave wants to be the most pleasing to their master/mistress. but after the scene, if i (and many will agree) don't find you interesting, i'm going to get very bored very quickly. and lastly, write to dommes that catch your interest. comment on something they said in their profile. make an effort to personalize your intro. remember, this is your first impression. talk to them like you would in person. "you are gorgeous and i want to be your slave," rarely gets more than a roll of the eyes from me. now on the other hand, if an aplicant were to tell me they saw i was into pony play, and they have always wondered about it, and asked me about my writing and costuming, and told me an interesting story or set of thoughts that somehow related to what i have to say in my profile...i'd be hooked. best of luck, and try not to jump into something unless you've had time to heal.
