Greetings Lady Pact,
I joined CollarMe in 2004, I started reading and posting on the message boards somewhere around 2007.
When I first started reading and posting, I was starting threads all over the message boards. I was not only starting threads all over the place, I was answering threads all over the place.
As many new posters tend to be, I was a bit TOO eager to jump in the waters here.
I started posting on CollarMe a few months before I went through a life changing devasting event.
There was a time that I was adddicted to CollarMe and I was on here a great deal as an escape from reality.
During this time that I was dealing with a life changing tragedy I was starting threads in which I felt I was personally being attacked and I found myself arguing way too often trying to"explain my point" and to try to get other people to even, SEE my point, WAY too many times.
In hindsite, I know for a fact I was way TOO sensitive and my emotions were all over the map due to the tragedy in my own personal life.
I really stepped back and looked at my actions, reactions, time spent on CollarMe, time spent on the internet and life in general.
I made the conscious decision to only start and primarily post on a few threads in the Politics and Religion section, because I found it easier to chat, debate and battle down here. I have actually LEARNED more down here in the politics and religion section than I have in other sections of the message boards.
I enjoy the variety of topics and I enjoy reading what most of the posters have to say, regardless of whether I see it their way or not!
Down here, I can chat about issues of the day, and have fun, without telling anyone about my "personal life" and I like that also. I rather be attacked on my political points of view any day, than who and what I am as a person, how I want to live in my personal life and this "lifestyle". Also, to be honest since I don't plan to leave CollarMe, I had to find a place to make my "last stand in". If I can't make it down here I have nowhere else to go!
Like Michael Jackson said, "This is it!"
I also enjoy a much wider variety of topics down here. I can only read so many "I want a Dominant woman to force me bi and fuck me in the ass" threads in my life.
Can you say B O R I N G?
At this stage of the game, I enjoy reading what is said on CollarMe and Fetlife and a few other joints that I frequent online, much more than actually participating.
I am a much stronger person than I was a few years ago, and I wear my big girl panties and I can/could handle myself posting anywhere on CollarMe or on FetLife.
By the way, I am BlackHippyChick on Fetlife.
I still enjoy reading some of the "spirited" discussions in other sections of the message boards, I just rarely feel the need to participate in them.
I like it down here, sometimes we have secret parties and do nasty things, that we don't tell you about.
It is just sad that so many come here, looking for a place to belong or people that will accept them, and many don't find a lot of people here that are the most accepting of people in the world.
I often laugh at how narrow minded, mean, and generally unaccepting many people in the BDSM lifestyle are of individuals that are really "different", and think way out of the box.
Thanks for starting a though provoking discusssion.
This is a big kinky world and there is room for everyone kinky in it, no matter where they enjoy spending their time.
