I found collarme about 6 months ago in my quest to learn more about D/s after having been first introducede to the lifestyle around that time. I realized I have always had submissive tendencies/desires, since a young child, but just didn't have a name for it. I just recently started reading the message boards, and wish I had done so sooner. It would have saved me a lot of frustration. Being naive in this lifestyle, I have fallen for some of the lines from the fakes and @$$holes out there, but thankfully, I'm a quick study. Dating on the vanilla side most of my life, I had learned most of the red flags that exist in that world. In this lifestyle though, it seems there are a whole new set of games, manipulations and untruths. I guess I should have realized that that would be the case. Several times, I doubted that this lifestyle was really for me. I have made the mistake of being untrue to myself in order to "prove" my submissiveness to those that were not worthy. It seems many just want a body, the person inside does not matter. I think I am more grounded and on the right track now, though. I got angry enough with some of these experiences that I vowed I'm going to be who I am from now on instead of putting on a mask to please another. I'm realizing its all about compatibility and have been lucky enough to find a Dom with whom I can really be myself. We have just been talking so far and will meet next week. Even if things don't work out, the experience thus far has been very helpful. And then there are the message boards. The posts I have read so far have really been enlightening. The more I read, the more I realize that this lifestyle is what I crave. I realize I don't have to be a doormat, that I can (and should) be discriminating, and that it is not only normal, but reasonable, to expect to find a Dom who's desires encompass more than giving orders and having sex. It has given me hope that it is possible to find One to whom I could truly submit, One who wishes to completely know my heart, my mind, and my body, and I his. Thats probably enough rambling for now. lady
