Telling the truth has never been a problem for me. If I was trying to hide, I certainly wouldn't have said what I just said. I am already confused seeing how I feel that I am both dominant and submissive at the same time, go figure. Dominant about some things, yet submissive about others. With that being said, you are telling me what to do, when I usually don't respond well to "being told what to do" I know that statement is counterintuitive when it comes to feeling dom and submissive at the same time. What can I say, I'm complicated. BTW) I am no longer newatdis..I am now an apprentice.

As Greta75 mentioned, it would be more accurate for you to classify yourself as a switch than as dominant again. There are all kinds of switches, and many different levels (ratios/proportions) of switching. This site in particular is limited in its categories, but that would be the closest.

You should also be aware that many (non-newbie) female submissives are especially wary of the bait & switch tactics that some maleDoms will attempt further on down the line, and it is not uncommon for a man to maintain BOTH Dominant AND submissive profiles (meaning, he's a switch), but try to hide this fact, so this is viewed as deceitful. Please try to understand this without feeling unfairly judged, and if you do follow suit, then disclose it up front to any kinky women you come in contact with because without full disclosure, you cannot have fully informed consent.

Now, what you should understand is that much of what other forum posters here may say shouldn't be taken personally by you, and yet you seem to get combatively defensive at every turn.

Face it, you're the new kid on the block, so try to just take things in stride. A lot of times, I'll post things that I feel others might need to be aware of, not necessarily directed at the OP, or I may respond to something tangential that someone else has posted. Btw, once you start a thread, it leaves your hands. It doesn't belong to you.

I can tell you right now that LadyPact has started threads, and I have never read one where she has exhibited control-freakish tendencies or tried to herd other posters. (So that's how I know that you are jumping to baseless conclusions.) And yet, this is at least the third thread you have started, and you have acted like a control freak on each occasion.

Please take note of what Dvr22999874 stated:
"when I did my apprenticeship, I was told to look, listen and learn. Nothing was said about trying to take charge/control or bad mouthing those around me. If I tried, I would get my ass kicked by somebody in that kitchen. So I looked, I listened and I learned and all these years later , I am STILL learning."

There's a saying as we get older that rings true, which goes something like this. The more we learn, the more we realize how much more there is to learn. I've also heard it expressed as, The more we learn in life, the more we realize that we don't really know half the shit we thought we did.

I rarely give advice (it is usually well meant but ill taken when people do) but in this instance I will make an exception. Whether you take it or not, is entirely up to you. I really don't care as it can't affect me in any way.
Don't allow anybody to insult you. By this, I don't mean take umbrage at something somebody says to you and start lashing out like a demented snake. What I mean is........hear them out; study what they said and decide if it is true or a lie. If it is a lie, then just tell them they lied but DON'T follow up any further. Don't get into a slanging match about it. You know it's a lie and anybody who knows and trusts you knows it's a lie too and there is no need to keep justifying yourself, so no problem'
If it's the truth, just accept it and say, "Well, you could be right", and again, look at what they said carefully and figure out how to fix that problem rather than start blustering and lashing out like a spoiled kid. Never say anything more than, "Well, you could be right," and just keep repeating that. You will need nothing more I promise you, and again, no problem. Be sure of your ground before you use this advice though or it could easily backfire and make you look an even bigger fool or liar.

Lol, shouldn't I be blocked? You will never be more dominant than me. Maybe you can act like, and think that with a willing man that is into S/M. But, I have the one thing that you don't "a dick"...and regarding what you said earlier. I bet I could even buy a bigger one than you.

OK, you obviously don't know how the system works.

Mail is different than the forums. Two different set ups. So, even if I blocked you on the mail side (which I didn't - just deleted whatever thing you sent last unread) I'd still see the forum posts. If I were to block you on the forum side (you'll see that nice "hide" button on the lower left of every post) it wouldn't change anything about mail.

Next, I'll tell you something that isn't about the site at all. I don't wish I had a dick. Not in the slightest. Female tops, even brand new ones, have leaps and bounds of an advantage over men. I don't have to be young. I don't have to be pretty. I don't even have to be good at it. (I happen to be, but that's besides the point.) All I have to do is show up. I don't deny female privilege in the BDSM game at all.

Pot, meet kettle. What did you want but everybody to conform after you showed your worst side? Oh, name change, I'm a new guy now. Best of luck with that.

Thanks for NOT jumping on the bandwagon, and having something positive to say.


Really, no thanks necessary.

The negativity and territory marking that pervades these boards is one of the reasons why few new people stay.

I am a member of several discussion boards (with a wide-range of foci) and this is the only place where I have ever seen newbies ... I was going to say "advised" but a more proper assessment would be ... admonished to "just read the boards for a few weeks" until they "get the hang of" the "right way to post". It's complete and undiluted bullshit, but the folks that are really in charge need to flex their muscle to make themselves feel important.

I strongly recommend using the "hide" button, located under each poster's avatar to just remove the negativity entirely from your experience and just enjoy the people that seem to want to bring some beneficial thoughts to the topic at hand.

Good luck and ...

Peace,



Michael

Hello my friend.
I would like to remind you, which I don't think you understand yet, is you are participating on a board that contains a certain degree of sadists. They absolutely love to stir you up and distress you. It is sport and it gives them much pleasure. there are also sadists that that do not practice that ridiculous game with new people, and will actually give you advice which is very helpful.
There are a lot of people who call themselves masters, but it's just a word. They aren't Masters.
Masters are very controlled people. It's not a bedroom thing only. They study and excel at everything they do. They set examples by actions not just words. A lot of people would love to be a master, but some will never conquer it. It's like me trying to do brain surgery without the education. Ha!
And submission, I have only been submissive one time in my life, and it was inspired by someone stronger then myself.
You will get all kinds of opinions on here, and sometimes frankly it just doesn't help. It just confuses you.
Just be yourself and don't try to figure out why people do what they do, say what they say.
There are some people on here that think they own this forum, well they don't.
No matter what anyone else says, I celebrate your new name. I made one myself recently after being gone from here several years. For those who don't like it TOUGH. I did it for my own reasons, and this thread is a perfect example of why. I didn't have to tell anyone either but I have.
It's true new people get attacked here all the time. But I promise you there are some really nice people here, they are just quiet and don't involve themselves in nonsense, which is pretty smart.
I on the other hand am a big mouth, which can go from sweet to crazy in 2 seconds. (If I decide too)
Have patience, learn, read and most of all peace!

I read this whole thread and you done nothing but call people names and and make false accusations. You don't act like an adult at all. and honestly as a submissive I would never pick you to be my Dominant partner, if you are acting like a child and calling people names that tells me you aren't Dominant at all, just bossy and couldn't control anyone including yourself.

Some of you are something else, I have not said anything unkind to anyone that has been remotely nice, or offered advice in a non attacking way. Whether I like the advice or not. If, the advice is a bunch of bullshit, based on what you think you know, I am going to say what I think. And its not my fault a lot of you jump to your own conclusions and think you know me so well.

Since comparisons like to made, an analogy; when I typed "get this through your THICK SKULL".... how did people perceive my emotional state at that time? Did you envision me angry, screaming, kicking my dog and gritting my teeth, or did you envision that I was actually laughing, thinking how funny it is. Is it really my problem with whatever people think or come up with? Some of you seem to think that I am mad, angry, being defensive, whatever. I can only say for like the umpteenth time that I am not, I think it is funny as fuck that we have been arguing mostly about my life, myself and none of you know me at all. Just your twisted idea of who I am.

Someone asked me what I want in a relationship. I responded with something like "I want a woman that will fuck me all the time" ...that statement is true, but does it really describe everything? Not at all, and how someone perceives that statement is not my problem. They can perceive it anyway they want, and attack me on their own perceptions (they could have asked me to elaborate, to gather more information before jumping to their own conclusion and attacking) BTW) a more accurate statement would be, I want a woman that I can't resist, when I look at her I just want to fuck her, and have her feel exactly the same way.

Again, some of you are really something else.

I am glad you are not mad or upset. I am just stating how I reacted at one time to what I felt were unfair attacks. Laughing at these things is the best medicine

That is some funny shit Greta. People are still trying to tell me what to do. Let me ask you this? Do you see me jumping around on other threads saying anything unkind, being an ass, whatever? No, I wouldn't. But, when a bunch of jackass's that don't even know me come onto the thread I started telling me what to do, believing their own perception of who I am, I am going to respond. And again, I think it is funny as fuck.

I did not specify BDSM (as the people society looks down on) you choose to put it that way. And to answer your question, I don't gaf what society thinks.

If you consider people into bdsm that are folks that society look down on, why would you want to be part of the crew that society look down on? Seriously...

BTW) I started this thread being positive. Even let my nemesis know that I actually did get something out of her. But, you come along and fucked that all up with your know it all attitude and demand for conformity. I bet you don't have many actual real life friends. I have many, and for a very long time.

Not taking any responsibility for your own actions. You are blaming LP for your childish outburst again right now? Seriously?

LP can say whatever she wants, and so can many people online, but how you react to it, shows the kind of person you are. I actually have no beef with you, but I just don't believe you have the temperament suitable for a Master or a dominant.

People can be different online and in real life. I just hope in real life, you are different and have a better grip of your temper.

I am not friends with anybody on here, I am on my own Island, and together with LP and almost everybody who replied you, I have had heated disagreements with at one point of time or another. But still most of the time, I felt like it was adult to adult.

With you, so far, it's like dealing with a juvenile.

Also, if your first reply to LP was simply saying, "I change my user name because "Newatdis" seem to be like a bad username when I am trying to befriend people." That would have been the end of it. Just calmly explain the real reason you changed it. Nothing to get mad about.

Seriously dude, you weren't exactly pleasant when you came to the boards.
You took umbrage and became very defensive because you thought that some were personally attacking you.
I didn't see anyone doing that.
They were sharp, even snarky, but they didn't attack you personally.
The fact that you started chomping at the bit is entirely on you.

I know cinnamon changed her name and I accept she did that because she'd been away for a while.
And I agree that 'newatdis' wasn't a great name to begin with.
But, even with your new name and supposedly starting over again, you aren't exactly doing a stellar job.

Whenever you join a new community, there will always be those that embrace new people and those that snark. But, you have to look and learn rather than snap back at those you consider to be attacking you.
It seems that you had (and still have) a hard time distinguishing between what was said and how it was said by taking criticism as a personal attack rather than a constructive comment or advice.

Personally, I think your original name is more apt at this point in time IMHO.
At least try to see what people are saying instead of getting your panties in a bunch and going on the defensive like Tarzan doing his chest-thumping thing and declaring you are somehow "better" than those that have been here for many years.
I'm not saying you need to conform to the lifestyle but you certainly need to adjust your way of thinking and your reactions if you want to fit in to this quirky community.
A bit like playing golf; judge the lie of the land before you start swinging at the ball.

I wanted to come back to you, seeing how you are being real. I completely get what you are saying, if a person is easily intimidated, has a weak personality, unsure of who they really are, and made a comment on the boards and was attacked they would surely go away...and quickly. And I'm sure some of the people here would revel in that.

"I would like to remind you, which I don't think you understand yet, is you are participating on a board that contains a certain degree of sadists. They absolutely love to stir you up and distress you"

I have not looked at it in this perspective, makes sense. But, I can only assure you that there is NOTHING anyone can say (that doesn't know me personally) that can effect me in a negative way. I am obviously getting something out of this or I wouldn't respond, right? And its not my problem what anyone thinks I am getting out of it, or my demeanor at any given time. I can only tell you I have been enjoying the jackass's.

I like you cinn, from your first comment on my first thread "don't even get me started" that was something I would have said and I am laughing typing this thinking about it. I came back with something (can't remember, I have never reread that first thread) and you took me the wrong way...and said s'thing like (OP, I was just having fun) And I told you, me too. And I actually liked you from the first comment. Not that you care whether I like you or not, just saying.

I think you made an earlier comment? I am hungover, and haven't even read most of what has been written here (I'm getting to it) the first thing you said that I GET is this "I really don't care as it can't affect me in any way." Some people cannot understand no matter how hard they try, some wont conform and nothing you say is really having any effect.

How can someone "lie" about something that pertains to me, when they don't even know me? Again, funny to me. I am sitting here lmao because some people don't get it that not everyone feels the need to conform to please 'certain people' I will repeat this for the last time; "I am obviously getting something out of this or I would not reply, right? And it is not my problem what people think I am getting or my demeanor at any given time. I am enjoying the jackass's" think about that for a minute, don't you think I know it takes two to argue? I don't need ANYONES acceptance on here (or, anywhere else) if I have to act and think their way. And just to let you know, a few things have been said that I did find usefull. It is also funny that I get along with almost anyone (in person) Blacks, Spanish (really get along with all spanish extremely well, I speak fluent Spanish from living in South America) gays, different nationalities, cops, whatever and whoever. Last night I was with a group of people mostly in their 20's, earrings/spikes in their noses, ears stretched out with big rings, tattoo's top to bottom, what many would consider societies rejects. And I had a great time, the drummer for "FamZ" is my neighbor. 23 years old, pregnant wife, she is 19 (I am 53 and look like Anderson Cooper, sick of hearing that shit) anyway, they are my friends, I'm also friends with a lot of their friends. That's real life, I get along with anyone, if some people, even if EVERYONE doesn't like me (online, in a certain forum) that's not my problem and again, I dgaf. With that being, said even if I made just ONE friend on here, a person that is REAL, that would be awesome, but it is hardly a requirement.

I am actually curious about a couple things, it would be a question for baby boomers, but I am not even going to bother at this point in time.

There have been a few posters that changed their name for one reason or another, myself included. I hadn't anticipated I was going to stick around, let alone participate, so I hadn't put much thought into the nick. I used the old one much longer than you, and divulged that information solely because of that. Most probably don't even remember my prior nick, and may never have seen where I mentioned it.
I don't see the big deal here. I have a problem with the argument to let people 'know who you really are' because such a small time under the prior name hardly tells us who you really are.

I did the exact samething "I hadn't anticipated I was going to stick around" I can appreciate your message. What some might not get is that I am not trying to convince anyone of anything (and hardly care what they think, if they are being a jackass) somehow I believe you think I am trying to convince people to like me, accept me, whatever. My dear, not my reasons at all. It is funny to me that I can say truths about myself, and that just irritates people.
