ORIGINAL: subbiedude Only she can clear this once & for all, which is exactly not happening & the crux of the problem. Hi subbie :) I want to address "the crux." First of all, the one experiencing a problem, is you, not "her." THAT's the crux. "Her" meaning, the online Domme persona who is experiencing exactly what they want, how they want it and when they want it. That persona, has no problem to clear. That persona has a block option and they taught you that they know how to use it and have no problem using it. THEY have no problem. I'm not judging you for falling into this common, online trap. We all make mistakes, have our vulnerabilities, etc... you get to make, and have, yours. I'm also not judging "her." I think if she's getting what, who, how, when and where met to her preferences, good on her! I can't help but notice that she's getting free erotica. Maybe she's selling it and in that way, IS a findomme. Again, I have no qualms with that, either. She's dealing with an adult who has given her these gifts. She is free to do with them as she wishes. Even if you choose to move on now, you needn't turn it into a great loss or drama. You've had 18 months of experience in writing erotica. You have gotten encouragement and kind words. Perhaps she supported you or gave you good advice as you faced some sort of obstacle during your time communicating online. You've gained close-up experience with an online role model, of sorts, in how to choose for yourself, what works for you and what doesn't and act in ways which align with that. I think you should watch a lot of episodes of Catfish if only to learn how others deal with the aftermath... the insights they gain about themselves, their thoughts on what it all meant and even how to spot a catfish in the future. Get educated on the topic. Most of all, it may help to do some thinking and be clear about your values. If you want a real life relationship, you are going to have to act in ways that lead you in that direction. For example, limit how long you will communicate online before meeting. Make a decision about that... pick YOUR time frame and state it in your profile. Then stick to it. From what you've described, you were aiming for one outcome and acted in ways that aimed towards another. ANY relationship begins with each person knowing what they want. Start there. :)
