Go to munches. Who cares if everyone is partnered? Get to know them. If you're not a complete fuckwad, they might introduce to to friends - who may or may not be single, but if you're not an absolute douchecanoe, they might introduce you to THEIR friends. It's all about networking.

Michigandude~ It's all about the attitude.




stellauk -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 6:19:58 AM)

Searching isn't enough, you also have to get involved.

The problem here of course is that a lot of people are stingy with their time, attention and resources and if things aren't going like an express train towards meeting their expectations they will lose interest or back off.

But why does it always have to be Route One without any deviations? This is something I can't work out with most people. Most attempts at getting to know someone fails, but people just move on and go to the next person and adopt the same strategy time after time after time.

The thing is, most of the big stuff starts with the little stuff, the minor details. Something like fifteen minutes of your undivided attention in conversation, offering help with a problem, and if you're a guy looking for a domme, I'm pretty sure that an afternoon spent gardening or doing odd jobs isn't going to hurt.

Relationships aren't just about play, and sex, and kinks. Any form of interaction, even a five minute conversation about the weather - this is a relationship.

Therefore I'll say it again, start with the person and with the interaction and leave them with the opportunity of continuing that interaction. It's more effort, no guarantees of course, but this isn't a race or a competition.




MistrixMsE -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 12:16:20 PM)

Simple illustration of much of the advice you are being given:
I met one of my closest friends in the scene at a kink con a couple years ago... what did we bond over? Use & mutual comprehension of the word bibliophile in a casual 5 minute conversation in the lobby. No, we aren't dating.. but it's still a RELATIONSHIP.

See women are funny like that, you never know what quirky little commonality or shared interest will create that little spark that says 'i want to have this person in my life' be it as a friend or more. The only way to find out is to have a conversation, get to know each other as people, and see what happens. If that little spring pops out and you find out you went to college in the same city, or you're both Jets fans, or she thinks its really funny that you do rocky horror dressed as columbia.... who knows where it might lead? You wont know without trying.. but one thing is for certain, if you just go out and make it all about the kink, you being sub, her being domme, you'll be like 95% of the guys she talks to.. and you wont likely stand out much..

met someone over the holidays over an extended lunch (5hrs) we didn't talk BDSM just good getting to know each other shizzle. Awesome dinner date. Dammit it was perfect.




MistressDarkArt -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 2:46:56 PM)

Way to go, Niney! Rock on with your bad self!




Ninebelowzero -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 3:27:34 PM)

Well now I feel like a right cunt lmao just had the incompatability mail.




mnottertail -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 3:28:23 PM)

even male subs have to kiss alotta frogettes.




xxblushesxx -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 3:31:53 PM)

Awww. It happens to all of us, Nine. Don't let it get you down too much. At least you had a wonderful dinner, and made (hopefully) a nice friend.




LadyHibiscus -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 3:45:33 PM)

Honestly it baffles me when I spend a few hour with a person and they decide I'm a no at the end. Why not just cut the evening short?

Dinner: you always get another chance tomorrow!




hausboy -> RE: Searching. (1/1/2012 5:57:30 PM)

Michigandude:  that has not been my experience at munches or local play parties.  what I DID find however....was the more idiot men that attend....the better off I looked!  I haven't been able to attend the local parties because of my work schedule, and I've been asked "when are you coming back?" by at least two of the Dommes.  If you are a sub/servant/slave of quality, the Dommes of quality will appreciate what you have to offer.  If you walk in with a negative attitude, everyone can pick up on that pretty quickly....and it doesn't make you attractive.




Ninebelowzero -> RE: Searching. (1/2/2012 2:43:30 AM)

Thanks guys, at my age I'm too old to get bugged by a crash & burn.

I've "Read the FAQ's in here", and nowhere does it say I cannot ask for advice on meeting a domme or mistress.



I'm almost certain you're correct.

That wasn't her point.

Pick yourself up and shake it off. That was always my motto while I was searching. I absolutely hated the waiting and having to be patient, but it certainly worked out in the end and was definitely worth the wait, and boy did I wait... [8D]

Awww fanx Miss Gothy xxx I'm in no hurry tbh, if I'm doing this then I'm doing it the right way built for the long run. Casual flings/disposable relationships aren't my thing any more.




bighappygoth39 -> RE: Searching. (1/2/2012 8:51:05 AM)

Yep, that was my way of thinking at the time. I was perfectly happy being single and was in no rush. I also felt no guilt in being pretty picky about the people I chatted to online. It'll definitely be worth the wait, though, and it sounds like you've definitely got the right attitude about it, so keep it up. [:D]




Ninebelowzero -> RE: Searching. (1/2/2012 8:53:32 AM)

Jeeze am I turning into a chick? :-)




bighappygoth39 -> RE: Searching. (1/2/2012 9:00:20 AM)

I doubt it, unless there's something you're not telling us? [8D]




Ninebelowzero -> RE: Searching. (1/2/2012 9:02:54 AM)

Well these heels are killing me.
