Make them convert to Islam and change their real name to a suitable arabic one before messaging you. Given enough time somebody probably will. (btw has anyone else seen that profile on fetlife that requires anyone contacting her to have her name tatooed on themselves before she'll even speak to them?)

Really, I just look for messages that resonate with me. It really helps if the person is writing because xhe's read something that I posted to the boards, or xhe has a question about something in my profile. For now, at least, I dismiss anyone who is outside of the US, and preferentially respond to folks in my own back yard (the closer to where I am the better), unless I'm responding to a comment on something I've written. One other thing about me is that I require a face-to-face meeting relatively quickly -- it's typically in a public place (local restaurant, coffee house, etc.), but I don't do online chat at all, and have a poor follow-up on electronic mail media, so I typically try to get the meeting aspects out of the way promptly, so that I (and the other person) can spend valuable energy in situations where it will be a productive venture for everyone involved.

quote: ORIGINAL: MsApocalypse I'm new here and quite overwhelmed with messages begging for My time. I'm wondering what everyone else requires before they talk to a would-be submissive. At this point, I have decided to require a photo (face and body) as well as a detailed list of their taste in books and music before I even consider giving them any of My time. Some small insight into them through their words that say to me that they are sweet, humble and or a good person. All of that would be great but one's a good start for an interest.

My name is Ginger I really like this answer...thank you for your input. I am new here and am just beginning to read these ..what you have said has really stood out to me. I am always willing to learn something new..(smiles and hugs) quote: ORIGINAL: AlexandraLynch Letter needs to mention something in the profile text, and be properly spelled and punctuated. I have a couple of geek in-jokes in the profile, such as "if you know how to recognize a king..." And a basic level of politeness towards me with signs of self-respect and self-worth referring to hirself.

(Fast Reply) Like a few other posters have mentioned - a lot of what I go by is instinct. For the most part, if they seem to have made an effort and we share some of the same interests I'll send a reply asking a few other things to get to know them better. (One of those things involves asking what some of their larger interests are, as well as what they aren't interested in.) If they've mentioned my profile or inegrated part of it, then thats certainly a plus. I don't have a lot of must haves in general though - I've run into a lot of neat and interesting people that way. A lot of them more compatible then I might have assumed otherwise - so generally if there are a few sticking points and common interests I'll take the next step and go further. At that point IMO I've found out that it either quickly goes up or downhill from there. We might converse and we don't have enough interests to facilitate a decent conversation, or there is some kind of personality flaw that pretty much ends all interests, or it all just goes well and things hit it off. I don't have any specifics mentioned in my profile, I have never really found the need. Either they're making a half assed effort (which is evident in either the 1st or 2nd mail) or they're actually trying. Your milage may certainly vary, but I've found those who make it a point to try generally are not someone I regret making an effort to talk with and get to know. I think if they're actually attaching photos and/or giving you a music/book list then you're already off to a damn good start.

Why they are contacting me, what questions do they have for me. I'll often reply back if there seems to be an interest in me. Questions, show me that they are interested in learning about me, not what I can do for them. Biggest irk is using the word "dominate" inappropriately, second is not using spell check, dictionary. Third is having a profile that is not updated, as in saying they will relocate, but are unable to for 5 years. Appreciate clothed pictures, sweetness, kind words.

re: Op's first posting Generally speaking from experience, most mistresses are seeking a very deep wallet and a very large checking account. Everything else appears secondary. It does not matter how much a person sacrifices, gains skills, pursues education, or betters themselves. None of that matters. At the end of the day the only thing that matters is how much the poor bastard is bringing in and willing to give.

At the end of the day the only thing that matters is how much the poor bastard is bringing in and willing to give. Fella, I just took a look at your profile. It is absolutely blank. Not one single word about you, what you want in a Domme, what you offer her. With that, you have eliminated every single one of the true lifestyle Dommes from considering you. You're 55 years old and have 55 years of experience, desires, discoveries to share. And you didn't. The Dommes will not care what the reasons are for you not saying anything about yourself - they'll simply ignore you. The pro Dommes and scam artists of course will behave exactly like you said. Tell you what. Fill out your profile, and come back and post more on the forums. Come with a genuine attitude of wanting to enjoy yourself and avoid complaining. Get to know some of the posters (which include some damn good women who happen to be Dommes). And see if things start changing for the better. And be patient. It takes months, usually, to find a good match. But as long as you're enjoying it...

I had a previous profile on here for 8 years and so I am well aware of what does and does not belong in a profile. With that being said, this profile is merely a means to a personal end as this website is bullshit and the people on it are full of bullshit as well. Why have a fully completed profile that will serve no purpose beyond drawing out the scam artists and money whores? Months to find a good match, huh? No, even that statement is bullshit and you know it. Years can go by and in some cases even a decade or more to find a good match. So hence, what is the point in bothering to even try unless you are prepared to sacrifice a large portion of your life in doing so?

"Patience is bitter but it bears a sweet fruit" ~Turkish proverb~ I guess it all depends on how much you want the fruit. Back on topic....Before I respond to anyone, I look at their profile to get a view of how they wish to be percieved by others. I like a man (dom or sub) to show he's intelligent, funny, creative and has a strong reality-based footing. I'm more likely to respond to a witty and engaging short email that asks a question or is a comment on a post I made or something in my profile (which is quite sparse at this time) then a "I beg you Mistress...." or "hi, how are you?" bit of nonsense. As it stands, emails from those overseas or over the border go directly to my bulk folder, which I do check on occassion. Generally, I'm not looking to chat back and forth for days (months?) on end so those who are available for a face-to-face coffee date are going to get my attention quicker than someone states away.
