I've had a few relationships (~6 months to 2 years) that sound pretty much like what you are currently looking for. I met the men in question through vanilla hobbies or mutual friends, rather than at kink events, but let them know about my inclinations around the 3rd date. While I was a Domme for 5 years in my first BDSM-oriented relationship and a submissive for 3 years in my last relationship, and am currently a slave, those others were more "egalitarian kinky." I tended to like being in charge a bit in the bedroom, and leaned a little bit dominant in general, but we didn't have a defined D/s relationship, or any protocol other than being polite. I didn't get involved in the public scene at all until about 5 years ago, after about 10 years of pursuing it privately. I was nervous about going to my first munch, but a straight submissive female friend of mine arranged to meet up and introduce me around to folks, which made it a lot easier. This particular site, especially the forums, tends to lean more toward the D/s rather than physical BDSM side of things, and some people seem to automatically assume that anyone who is a top, bottom, or non-D/s switch is only interested in casual play, or selfish, or of all things, vanilla. Lorenzo, how on earth do you get that she wants to be a Mistress from her posting a vanilla picture of herself?!?
