Actually, the easier way to resolve that is just to ask them if they are me since all know that I'm MrDomlyAlmighty.

I'm not just looking for a sex partner or occasional D/s session. My goal is a long term/permanent relationship. Therefore, I feel it's important to learn as much as possible PRIOR to pursuing any possible relationship.

Am I expecting too much? Is there such a thing as asking too many questions?


Or you can eliminate your goals and simply enjoy his company and see if a spark occurs. You know what you want and it's not necessary to preface all discussions with this. Whether you can accept that something may or may not take place is depending on your outlook. Attempting to arrange things upfront when it's really unwritten only creates expectations that are bound to be unrealized.

One of the key aspects of what you're seeking is relating. I'd gather you'd need to do a lot of that before you could assess if the person you're relating with is capable of leading you. No amount of checklists and brief discussions can reveal that in my opinion. Take your time and enjoy the journey.

What a refreshing change... normally when someone asks if they are being unreasonable they are only looking for some egocentric validation!

No, I don't think you are expecting too much.  But remember if you are only getting one sort of a fish out of the pond, change your fishing tackle, or change ponds.

Your profile is OK, although, there is no need to reference this problem... most people online are aware of what it brings, and boy I'd be rich if I had a penny for every time I was told I wasn't submissive.  It comes with the territory, and is of no use to you when searching for a dominant.

You are quite closed off about some things, your words, your dislikes, your hates and hard limits.  Now please forgive me for volunteering this information, but do you actually know you don't like them, hate them, or is that your perceived reaction to certain actions?  Let me put it this way, go back 40 years and what would your reaction be to you posting an ad on a BDSM site? Pretty negative I bet!

You can't afford to be closed minded in life, let alone when looking for a partner... you will close more doors than you will open.

The same goes to your expectations... no-one wants to think of a conditionalised relationship before it happens.  So often we will compromise because there are other redeeming features.

Try putting more about you, what you like, what you want... in life in general, not solely about BDSM.

When I met Andrew (online) we talked about everything and anything in the two weeks before our meeting... it was only half an hour before I left home that I realised we hadn't discussed anything kink related other than he wanted to be in control and I wanted to submit.

And finally, yes there can be too many questions, but not at the stage that you are talking about. 

Good luck in your journey!

I hope I'm doing this quote thing right, subsfaith.  I read your comments with interest, and they inspired me to go back in a delete a few sentences from my profile statement.  I would be grateful if you would take another look at it for me, and give me your honest observation.  Thanks so very much.




iwant2byourslv -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/12/2010 9:47:20 PM)

No.. I don't think so.. I am new to this life style... and it seems like almost every message I am sent has to do with what I am wearing..Someone wanting to order me to do something... It is very discouraging to say the least.. I had to update my profile to add my feelings.. I just don't think I should of had to do that... I am seriously aggravated....




PlayDocWithMe -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/12/2010 10:15:36 PM)

I'm quoting any shyt I get from the rude ones right on my profile. I don't care anymore if it makes them angry. It makes me feel empowered to expose their crap. I am so done with stupid men. Just because I have a medical fetish doesn't mean I'm interested in becoming some damn online slave. I don't care anymore if someone DOES think I'm unreasonable. I'm sick of their shyt!




macs -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/13/2010 1:03:54 AM)

Hiya Bobbie know your not being unreasonable, there just guys that have got the wrong idea. How can you submitt to someone you don't no, it does not make sence[:)]




DomImus -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/13/2010 6:18:55 AM)

You are not being unreasonable. Set a goal or path for yourself and follow that path. You know best what is right for you.

However, do not be led to believe that you are right and all these doms that do not agree with you are wrong despite all that static and lip service in this thread to the contrary. I realize your question is more of 'getting it off my chest' rant than it is a legitimate question. Let's be honest - it is the same rhetorical question we see posted here in the forums on a weekly basis. You knew the answer already. It's just another opportunity for everyone to pile on the doms in absentia.

People look for different things in relationships for different reasons. Some people can grasp this concept - most cannot.

Yes people do look for very different things in any relationship, so why assume they have a relationship with a woman before they have taken the time to get to know them? I think the biggest mistake on a Dom's part is assuming ownership before consent has been given. Why not step out of the "fantasy" for a moment, avoid getting all caught up in the pretty pictures, and truly get to know the woman, and give her some insight into your personality as well? Instead of discounting women's "rants" look at it as a learning experience of what women really want? A guy not behaving like a total jerk with a woman he barely knows is a good start as well.

Thanks for your response.  I do want to make it clear, this was NOT intended as a rant.  It was a sincere question based on my lack of experience in the lifestyle and messages I've received here.  I initially thought I had to comply with the orders of any Dom I began a chat relationship with. I thought I had to prove I was capable of obeying.   The result was I exposed myself in ways I never should have. I was totally stupid.  I truly needed confirmation that just because I start a chat with a Dom, it doesn't mean I have to comply with their requests.  The responses here have been so helpful, and now I know.  And, again, thank you for your opinion.

Being fairly new to the lifestyle (yes, even at my tender age), am I being unreasonable to expect that we should get to know each other as people first? Almost without exception, every Dom who has contacted me has acted like he's my Dom from the get go. Seems to me we should get to know each other first, get to know our likes and dislikes, our expectations, our hard limits, our interests outside the lifestyle. I feel I should be able to be honest and ask questions of him.

I'm not just looking for a sex partner or occasional D/s session. My goal is a long term/permanent relationship. Therefore, I feel it's important to learn as much as possible PRIOR to pursuing any possible relationship.

Am I expecting too much? Is there such a thing as asking too many questions?

Thanks for your honest responses here


There's not many people like you on CollarMe.  Most people see this shit in movies or read about it in books and than think that tying someone up or throwing someone around is D/s. 

Message me - You sound real :)




Wazz -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/29/2010 2:05:27 AM)

A great question, some very good advise given by posters, if you cannot communicate openly with your Dom - potential or active - then your future is doomed with that Dom.
Thats my experience, hismouse and i have and will continue to talk about every aspect of our relationship, if we didnt we would not be together
goodluck




QuirkyAnne -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/29/2010 4:39:03 PM)

Absolutely not.  Anytime a person, whether kinky or vanilla makes it clear that they don't need to know who I am and what I value in life before they want to play or have sex with me, I immediately drop them.




Abstracts -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (8/31/2010 3:44:50 AM)

It also stands to reason that a Dom would want a sub to know a great deal about them. Their likes, dislikes, etc. If the prospective sub were to begin serving them, this would only enhance their ability to do so. Personally, we encourage the subs we message to tell us what they and to know about us. And we even volunteer information we think might interest them based off of their profile. And we ask them a lot of questions as well. I mean, who wants just any old sub? We want OUR sub, if you can understand my meaning.




VenturaKitten -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (9/2/2010 1:30:16 AM)

I have learned to ignore those who order me to kneel and turn on my cam with their first email, but I am still frustrated by those who begin a normal conversation but after two exchanges seem to assume that because I am replying to them I now belong to them.




Hillwilliam -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (9/2/2010 5:03:35 AM)

As a good sub friend of Mine once said. "I may be a subbie slut, but im not YOUR subbie slut"




D0M1NANT -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (9/2/2010 12:10:16 PM)

Some really good information here for one who wants to see it.. I do agree respect is earned not given. The only thing that can be TAKEN is fear, not respect or trust.. Getting to know the Dom should be a matter of course and should be first and foremost in E/everyones mind.. Why slap a collar on someone only to find 2 days later that they are not right for you or your house..? Its ridiculous, but those coming in do have a tendency to fall for that type of pitfalls.. Glad this one does have the proper outlook on the subject.. Plain and simple, a collar is the equivalent of a wedding ring.. One does not meet a girl and ask her to marry him the same day.. Well, NORMAL people don't, and that should be the clue to beat feet.. But the lure of the coveted collar holds sway and seems to suspend disbelief in the proper order of how things should work..




DaddyDeviance -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (9/13/2010 5:29:27 PM)

Get to know th man. Be slowly introduced to the dominant inside. Explore, open yourself, discover your tastes and limits together. Let short submission sessions slowly evolve into the level of submission that you wish to surrender to him. If you wish a sound LTR, I feel this is critical. In my younger day, I had many a relationship end due to diving into BDSM only to discover the person underneath really wasn't what I was seeking.




SailingBum -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (9/13/2010 11:07:58 PM)

Uh if she ain't putting out after 2 dates SeeYaBye.

tazzygirl -> RE: Am I Being Unreasonable? (9/14/2010 12:00:21 AM)
