Greetings, All, quote:
ORIGINAL: Evility The point I am trying to make (and it's the same point I make every time this thread or a similar one pops up) is that you can do everything "wrong" on a first meet and have a great time just as you can explicitly follow all of the safety rules you read online and still end up in hot water. I know there are certainly people who have been protected by their pre-meet precautions, too. I think people should put in place whatever measures they feel necessary to give them peace of mind but still be aware that peace of mind is not a safety guarantee. There is nothing wrong with a "better safe than sorry" approach to meeting new people as long as one understands that it is actually more like "better safer than sorry". It's discouraging to watch people get lulled into a false sense of security just because they crossed all the t's and dotted all the i's beforehand. If anyone thinks a dominant with a Ted Bundy fetish is gonna be hampered greatly by a few safe calls they are in for a rude awakening. Master and I talked for 2 weeks online and on the phone. Every day, save maybe 2, as often as we could. We knew we wanted to meet so we did. We decided to meet half way between his house and mine and spend a few days in a motel I chose. A friend drove me out there with full intent on dropping me off as soon as I was "safe". We actually *met* in the parking lot of a Wal-Mart in the middle of the day. He followed the friend and I to the motel where we said good bye to the friend and carried our things into the room. We talked, we ate, we played, had amazing sex, laughed, showered, watched TV... We acted like we'd know each other for years. Within a month we were living together. We still are. We currently work at the same place, same hours, same pay rate. Just not the exact same job. What can I say? God said Yes. <edited because I need to be clear and realize newbies are reading this too> I am not saying this is ideal. I am NOT saying this is safe. I am saying I agree with what Evility said up there ^ and I am telling what I did. I had never met anyone like that before. I certainly had never placed myself, or anyone else, in that much potential danger. In fact I had met women from online before and would not allow such behavior. They were to have daily safe calls, money of their own, a way to get out, the number to the local police and sheriff stations, and were not allowed to sleep with me ( non sexual ) at the first meeting under any circumstances. There was certainly NO SEX. I have done this both ways, I suppose one might say. All meetings, save one, were excellent. Well Wishes, ~Passion~
