ORIGINAL: dicipline2 I agree. I felt just as this guy does because all my emails requesting a chat or something just to get to know someone better went unanswered and I am also younger than most dommes would like. However, I am not going to give up just because a bunch of guy who are only half serious and just want something to do. I refuse to let these little wimps win that easily. There are too many true, deserving, and wonderful dommes out there who truly want a sub/slave that is real. I have been on collar me since 2004 with little succes either, but as it was mentioned before, it can take many years to find what you are looking for in BDSM. I don't mean to get off topic here...but it is kind of on topic as this addresses why it can be discouraging to a FemDom to receive so many emails and immediately dismiss them. And the boys, in their turn, get discouraged and think they should just quit. I can't even begin to tell you how many emails I get that are only one or two lines...bad grammar, full of misspellings and an extreme lack of punctuation. The one thing that is fairly consistent is a phone number or a chat ID. Since I specifically state I do not and will not chat, it amazes Me how many boys think they might be the exception to this rule. I got one the other day that was 2 lines, and I did reply. I told the boy that his impeccable references would be of interest to Me as soon as he wrote a proper letter of introduction. I got a reply the next day stating that he was well known (somehow or the other) and could not send Me a picture, but he sent his phone number. I did not even recognize this person on the second email. It was so careless, and he was so forgettable, that there was not even a point of reference. I questioned who he was. He wrote again stating that I had replied showing great interest and had requested a photo. I checked My sent email at that point, and, of course, I had never requested any such thing. I told him so, and copied and pasted My polite 2 line reply to him as a reminder of what I had actually written. *Shrug* End of story. But certainly a waste of My time! I appreciate the fact, discipline2, that you may be very sincere. But to request a chat immediately, to Me (remember this is My thing) is taking the lazy way out. It might be convenient for some, and you may even find some bona fide Ladies who are willing to move to IM chat after a few emails. I more or less look at it as the fact that I am not here for your convenience. A few chats on IM, and maybe you will show up for the appointment or maybe you won't. Maybe you will be chatting with a few others, so I am sitting on My end, waiting endlessly for a reply to a question, and then I finally get a simple "Yes, Ma'am", or "No, Ma'am", or "I am not sure, Ma'am". I have to take the road that an immediate request for chat, offer of webcam, or provision of a phone number, means the boy is in a hurry to get off. No more, no less, and not worth My time. There is a discipline to writing a decent letter and exhibiting the ability to follow through. It is not meant to be easy. We are not in a bar looking for a partner for that night. A little effort goes a long way. I don't know what you write, but you did mention emails with a request for a chat, to get to know someone better. I can do that just as well, through email. That is My requirement and I make that abundantly clear in My profile. After those hurdles have been met, I will consider moving to the telephone. For the boys who just want instant chat, I always say no. IMO, that is taking the easy way out. I always think that if a boy is claiming to be submissive, and writes two lines to Me, completely ignoring My requests, yet in those two lines, he is proclaiming his undying readiness to serve me forever, I will already be able to make a reasonable judgement that he is not ready to serve Me as he is already taking shortcuts. I am sure I missed a few good ones along the way, but there is really no other way to weed. Just some food for thought.
