Yep. I've met Doms Who aren't compatible in a "relationship" but are great as friends.

Good luck, Julia. I had a "too good to be true" episode about a month ago. And he was not anything at all that he said he was and he was actually a lying asshole.

He said all the right things, etc.

So, just be careful; you are a smart lady. Just have no expectations.

I've met my "too good to be true".  He's real, he's honest, he's trustworthy.  Not something I'm used to dealing with.  I have a twisted mind that can make mountains out of nothing and he knows this.  He handles it perfectly every time.  He knows my flaws and accepts me for who I am, and that's the best "me" I can be.  He feels the same way.  We started out as friends and c-mailed for about 2 months before I'd even give him my yahoo id.  I thought at first, well this is fun, but he's into skinny bimbettes who have no brains, this from some of the back and forth we had.  No, he wanted a woman, and that woman turns out to be me.

That is great. Sometimes it does work out, from what I hear.

Well, I got this email from a really really handsome guy that lives within an hour of me. He is about my age, gorgeous in his photos, enjoys the same exercise as I do, and when he emailed me he addressed the interests I had listed in my profile.

He sent me a few long emails, and we have an incredible amount in common. He listed interests in his emails that I have newly developed myself, and wrote about elsewhere on the interwebs. In short, I almost felt like he researched me and what I am seeking (not saying he did, but it just seemed that way with how well everything he says fitting what i seek). He gave me his number, and I was going to call, but I had the stomach flu the past couple of days, so I put it off. I am hesitant to call him. The last time someone seemed too good to be true, they were too good to be true, and it turned out that I dodged a bullet with anger management issues.

Maybe I am paranoid now? I probably will call him, but I will block my number when I do. I just feel so jaded after my last experience, and more than a little distrustful. Has anyone else ever had someone too good to be true contact you... did you go for it, or did you dismiss it because it just seemed unrealistic someone could be that good?


I had someone too good to be true contact me almost three years ago.
He's now sleeping about a foot away from me.

Go for it. You have nothing to lose except possibly some time.
You have everything to gain if it works.

I Met my "Too good to be true" right here on CM. She contacted me 4 1/2 years ago.
Long story short...
After 4 1/2 years, my little girl is still "Too good" and still very "True."
Go for it! Good luck!

i hesitated meeting a certain dom because of my skepticisms. i almost missed out on a wonderful Master. if you allow your jaded past to rule you you may miss the chance of a lifetime.

I think that being once bitten twice shy is not the same as being jaded. I am far from jaded.

I made a pact when I was a lot younger to never have regrets in life....I never wanted to ever wonder about the "what if's".
I can only put in one way julie...if you don't meet and find out what this man is like...you will always wonder about the "WHAT IF" scenario.

Don't be frightened....take the plunge and find out...you never know....he might be the "one"...if not....its just another lesson learned in life.

Good luck to whatever you do decide.

hey there,

you wouldnt be asking this if he didnt touch some focus points with you - the fact that he does, even cyberly, you find youreself wondering if he's for real? - isnt that saying that you dont believe you deserve this guy - he's too good for what, - for you? - clearly he doesnt think so or he wouldnt have made the effort to get to know you.

the thing is we all know that there are liars and cheats out there and we've all had our fair share of them, probably, but you cant live by 'what ifs' - what if he's the perfect guy for you and you miss this.

as NV says, dont build youre hopes up, meet him as you would anyone else, with an open mind to whatever the possibles might be.

personally i wouldnt block my number, but thats just me, i know you dont know him, but trust is an unspoken language that speaks volumes and i dont see the harm in sharing a telephone number with a person, its not like youre giving him an address.  obviously thats youre call.  for myself if someone came along that seemed that right id give them my trust, keep myself open and only withdraw and close down if it turned out to be a no-go.  these people dont come along all that often - go for it.

So all I have to do in order to serve him, is to work out exactly how improbable he is, feed that figure into the finite improbability generator, give him a fresh cup of really hot tea ... and turn him on!

I thought my Master was too good to be true, hw lived next town over was very educated has a great voice and his wicked snese of humor perfectly matched mine. I thought this guy seems like the perfect match for me but he is too perfect for me or so i thought. We met we clicked and now close to 5 years later he is still the perfect fit for me.

Go for it julia and good luck with the meeting.

The good ones come when you least expect it... and when you don't really feel like reacting to them. In the past, I wouldn't reply to direct messages of less than a sentence, but someone who did caught my eye and I felt compelled to reply. When I found out more about him, from personality to appearance, I was glad I did reply that day! Almost too good to be true, and all from a one-line direct message.

Just do it, and as my friend Sheila says, "Enjoy the ride."

i had to quote this... lol. 

right now i can barely be bothered to even come on CM these days.  i write back to emails more from politeness than interest.  then today i clicked on and theres this guy who seems to be coming from a direction that actually has me a little bit curious.  but im so fecking weary with all of this now and ive really lost heart.  just a phase i expect (hope)

right now i really just cant be bothered with it all.  a friend of mine is going at it all with so much enthusiasm and energy and im thinking 'meh!'

anyhoo, julia, good luck and i really really hope he is the guy to tick all youre wish list boxes.

I would classify Mr. A whom I mentioned sometimes on the boards like it. We met last year and I still think he is a great guy...nevertheless I don't think that he is seriously dating for different reasons and by now I pretty much stopped being bothered about him...as life is too short to waste energy on someone where there doesn't appear to be any effort from his side apart from empty words.

Nevertheless it was great to meet him, so it was certainly worth it to to get to know him better.
