There are ways to find time to contact you. No matter how busy someone is you can't tell me that they do not have 2 min to jot an email, make a call, text, etc. If only to tell you that they are busy and will contact you soon. Being busy doesn't make your hands fall off so that you are unable to push buttons on a keyboard or phone or take away your voice. You've been very patient waiting for a month for him to become less busy and if he can't tell you anything specific as to why he's busy...just that he's busy...he just doesn't want to play any more and it's difficult for him to end it. Or he's seeing if the new thing is panning out first before letting you go. In my experience, I've rarely had a guy be up front to break things off with me...they just disappear.

So his non-response IS a response. He's telling you he doesn't want to engage with you or spend time with you anymore. A man will pursue something that he wants, if he doesn't make time for it anymore then he's not wanting it anymore. I'm sorry and I've been on the receiving end of this before and it sucks. All you can do is pick yourself up and move on. The good thing is that you are in the minority here on CM, female s types are in demand. There are a lot of men out there that would and will appreciate having you in their life. Take time to grieve, try to figure out what happened so if at all possible you can avoid being hurt again and then get out there and take an active role in looking around.

I'm sorry for his spinelessness...not very Masterly is it? If he were all he billed himself to be by calling himself a Master he'd own up to things and see that its not in your best interest to be strung along and tell you what was up here. Be grateful that you saw his true colors and left the situation before it went any longer.


QFT--especially the part about being busy doesn't make your hands fall off.

Kaiel has made a good point here, too--3 hours in 3 months?  Not too much to miss, even.  Time to move on, and find something actually worthwhile.

estilore,

I have empathy for what you're going through, and you are not way off base. Communication time is important for any relationship regardless if it's long distance or real time. I wish to express another option you may have, and that's to simply step back and place more focus on your real time life. Stepping back does not mean you have to end things completely with him. However, it gives things some space for you and him to both put things into proper perspective. It's apparent he's stepped back for whatever reason(s).

At times, it's wise to put decisions on hold for a bit, and to step back and distance yourself a little. Give yourself a little more time to reflect, and simply wait and see what happens.

It's rather difficult for any of us to access what's he's become so wrapped up in with his real time life. However, it's apparent his actions are speaking louder and louder with each passing day.

You can step back (detaching yourself from the deeper aspects of D/s, and lowering your own expectations for while) and see what happens in the next month or so. You can simply move on with life and tell him it's over, which also involves detachment.

You can also choose to hang in there with your whole heart and dedication as well. I have a friend of mine which did just this, for a little over 6 months, she held onto things with hope. However, she focused a lot of time and energy upon self-improvement. Going to the Gym and doing things to improve herself. She made a number of significant life changes as well. However, this involved her stepping back and placing the focus upon herself, and less upon him. She waited things out and it turned out exceptionally well for her.

So, it's hard for anybody to fully give you the true advice you need. The only advice I sincerely know is good, is for you to step back. Place less emphasis and focus upon him. You may find yourself stepping back more and more, until things just simply fade. Again, it's rather hard to give good rock solid advice.

I'm just laying out some options that you have, things to think about.

Be Well, and I sincerely wish you luck

Since you are in California and he is in Kansas, I assume this relationship has been completely online? Honestly, it shouldn't be that difficult to get over given you haven't ever met and he has spoken to you for a whole 3 hours in 3 months. That isn't even enough time to get to know someone well enough for them to claim ownership or you to accept it. Add to that he doesn't even have you on his "friends" list and it all seems a little suspect to me. I honestly think that you should let it go. Stop contacting him (it doesn't sound as if he will even notice) and then find someone real to call yours. Someone who will meet you in person and that you can spend some quality time with. Don't you think enough of yourself to believe you deserve that?

OP, I looked at your profile and you have a lot to offer. 'Tain't right that it not be used.

Believe me, you'll find another Dom easily when you're ready.

From a guys point of view on something another guy said let me make this as absolutely clear as I can for you.

Never in my life have I been to busy to make a 5 minute phone call to say good night or good morning.

Never in my life have I not made it a point to contact someone that I cared about.

Never in my life have I been in a relationship that could last for 3 months without there being some form of committed contact.

I would ask you if your Master asks of you anything from sexually explicit e-mails, pictures or web cam. If so and it did not happen I think it is clear why that is.

If you are as far away as you are and the contact is this minimal I would assume that this man has no intention of making it real time, I know from all the LD relationships that DIDN'T work there was no real commitment, and from every one that DID work there are massive ammounts of communication.

What does your relationship have too much of and what does it not have enough of and in the end how long are you willing to give this person who isn't willing to give yo more than an hour a month?

He's a sorry excuse for a Man let alone a Dominant. My thought is you could swing a cat in a barn and hit someone more willing and able to step up and do right by you.

That is unless you want to be treated like shit and in that case I think this catch is a dreamboat.

quickly gathering my 3 cats - chuckles - and agrees with what QSM said. 1 hour pr. month - no mentioning of owning You anywhere - but many other fem friends showing - how you can call him master, is a puzzle to me...but i think you knew a long time ago this was not what you hoped it to be. Chalk it up to experience and move on.

Also a thought - what would be a natural dealbreaker in any other relationship (vanilla - marriage) - seems to be "ok to accept" when one part slaps master in front of his name. Sad...

Thank you QSM for this answer.

I posted earlier but also wanted to add that my partner and I live about 1 1/2 hrs away and don't get to see each other all that often for various reasons- maybe once a week or every other week. He is very busy with work and various family commitments but he always finds the time to contact me several times a day. A quick note on IM, an email, a call, etc. We both know it's important and it's a priority for us to make the contact even if it's just to say hello. We celebrated our one year anniversary of being together this last Sunday, it takes some commitment to make things work even if you live in the same state but like QSM said there is always time for a 5 min phone call.

It's been pointed out several times already that you have a lot to offer someone who will appreciate it and not neglect you. Don't settle for less. If an old woman such as myself can find several good prospects here on this site back when I was looking then so can you

Op,

Ugh. I've gone through something similar and it was HELL.  If you need to message me feel free.  I know how much it can suck, but I was an idiot hard head and stuck with the bastard for near 2 years. The last straw was when he ignored me over Christmas.  Yeeeeah. New year's resolution was to dump his ass. Magically he showed up after being "gone" for 2 weeks to block me on all messengers not an hour after I wrote him a "Dear John" email.

I gave myself -hell- for months afterward for letting myself get pulled into a situation like that where I felt like hell constantly, not good enough, not smart enough, after all everyone else's boyfriend wanted to spend time with them, but mine seemed to only want me when we broke up, or when he was feeling lonely. Then suddenly he loved me and couldn't live without me...then he ignored me for weeks again. I mean -really-, I was the dumbass not him. He gave me all the signals in the world that he was a loser and I ignored them because I loved him. I had to let that self-hatred go though, and let him go with it. It was WORLDS better afterward, and I found a much better man.

So, er.  I'm a little bit bitter still. But the POINT was supposed to be that I've been through it and I empathize entirely. And such. Ahem. I'll shush now.

Somewhere around, oh 10 years ago I ran across a delightful little submissive girl, ok she was 26, but hell, I was 40, so girl fits, who asked me the same question.

Said Dom had initially been quite attentive, seemed very domly and they enjoyed much online time. They finally met. Dom laid down rules, fucked her a few times, and declared himself her trainer. She accepted all of it because, hell, he was a dom and the first to strike those nerves in her. So she gladly consented.

Time goes by. 8, 9 months. Contact drops to a drivel then essentially disappears. He makes an appearance here and there when he wants something, mostly sex. Even then, he didn't want it much. Here and there means like once in three months. In the meantime, she has a set of rules to live by. She has to forego the one about not pissing until she has permission because, well, she can't reach him to get it. At the time she contacted me, she had almost no contact with him in 2-3 months. Maybe an occasional IM, a couple of one-liner responses to the daily emails she wrote.

Now get this, they lived in the same city. He was actively seeking submissives too. She said, I belong to him. I said, so does his dogs. In terms of feeding, they're alive and a part of you is dying. Figure out your place on the totem pole and decide if it is a place you want to inhabit. If not, move. He gave up whatever right and interest he had a long time ago.

3 hours in 3 months? Yeah I would have been gone a looong time ago.

Sorry if he's that busy with his life he's too busy for a relationship. I would walk away and tell him then maybe someday when his life isn't so busy maybe look me up again and we'll see what happens.

Until then I suggest he figures out what's most important in his life right now and that you move on to someone who has time for you.

personally, he seems like a piss poor Dom.

I really have no clue to what your attention level was that you got from him before this.
that info would be useful.

for me, it would be "say la ve!"

you have a beautiful ass and other nice attributes.
Why are you so wrapped up in this man who is very very very far away
and so terrible at communication?

What does he give you that keeps you hanging around?

Cocaine?

lol....just wondering

From where I sit, it looks like either he has lost interest in you, or he is just a piss poor dominant. The excuse that" life" gets in the way it total hogwash. Life with its issues will always be here and if he can't handle both, he needs to release you so that you have the opportunity to find someone who can

Estilore,

The fact of the matter has nothing to do with being a "Master" but about being a gentleman and a gentle man. No good man shows so much carelessness to the woman of his heart, or to any woman for that matter. His behavior is unspeakably disgusting, both callous and cowardly.

Blame his mere existence to the fact that female humans preffered over millenia the mean bastards to the good guys and try to improve the gene pool by looking for a caring nice dominant man (sounds unsexy doesn'it?)

Not being on your continent I can only wish you good luck and not ask you for a date, but I am sure that you mailbox is no overflowing with invitations.

Have fun

Henry
