I started in this LS a very long time ago. When I started it wasn't as out there as it is today. Today it is so hard to find a Dom or Master, there are just to many fakes and wanna be.
When you try to vet a Dom/Master you get answers like " your not ready", "you just want vanilla" or "do what you want". When you ask if they want monogamous or poly it's either crickets or monogamous until you find out about the others. When you question then they avoid answering. Red flag when you chat on messenger, Skype, etc and within 10 minutes they tell you they want you to be their submissive slave or you need to be confident and obedient. I am not your submissive do not order me around.
When you start a relationship and think everything is going well, your both on the same page and bam you get ghosted.
Read the profiles, know what that person is looking for and what they want.
