ORIGINAL: crumpets If you have a second home, or if you travel or vacation a lot in the areas of concern, that would, to me, be a special case where distance is of no merit (at least, distance to THOSE preferred locations). But, for me, even 100 miles isn't gonna happen, let along ten times that. Nonetheless, #8 was written specific to a specific keyword on the profile itself. You see, when we edit our profiles, at least for USA profiles, we put in a zip code (I'm not sure if it's mandatory or not). That zip code is, apparently, what Collarme uses for the distance calculation. I have surmised that the fakes put in any zip code they like, as they almost certainly generate hundreds of these fake profiles, and they need to change things up a bit, and, as such, the zip code doesn't match the location in the profile. Of course, it could be an honest mistake, or someone moved, or whatever, but, as I had said, these were just off-hand clues I use to decide whether or not to spend any time on a profile. My other technique is to HIDE the profile the moment anything is fishy. If an 18-year old bombshell contacts me, more often than not, I'd just HIDE and then BLOCK the profile, so as not to waste my time any further. Too good to be true, is too good to be true. In fact, even if I search within 100 miles of my current location in Silicon Valley, there are only about a dozen (at most) profiles which seem both true, and realistic. That's said, but that's my assessment. Of those dozen, what's the likelihood of being in the same time and place and role in life as that other person, and then having the right chemistry, and, then beating out the competition at the same time? Probably 1 in 10, so, for any of we males, the REAL prospects are about 1 out of the 100 miles surrounding us, while, for females, I would have to say it's 100 to 1 or more. I could be wrong though ... My thought is you make sense for the most part. I think it would take a lot for a sub to start flying himself all over the country for the pursuit of a relationship unless he can afford to do so or can even realistically relocate. In that case going offline to munches is the best alternative in my mind's eye. In my case, I have always worked for myself for the past...8 years or so. If someone is going to pursue something long distance then skype should be on the table unless you have money to burn or have a conference in the area where you and prospective Domme can meet for coffee. Talking on the phone isn't enough. People look very different irl than in photos sometimes. And not for the better and then chemistry plummets because of expectation. It really depends on someone's comfort zone but having too many requirements at the starting gate limits your options so much I'd say get offline and meet people in that case and network on kink friendly vanilla sites as well. Making yourself available to serve at parties for friends or whoever to network sounds like the quickest option to meeting someone local as a male sub. ETA; reading what DesFIP said, I am a bit guilty about embellishing not so much my age than date of birth. It is really hard for me to put my personal information all over the internet. My age is usually no more than 2 years younger on these sites. Currently my age on this profile is accurate. I never really think of it because it's such a tiny difference and I always tell people my real birthday if we meet offline or I have interest and they ask. It's really a process getting to know me I'm afraid. So many layers like Shrek, LOL.
