I find myself in the position of blocking individuals more often than I'd like to admit, primarily because many people fail to adhere to basic social etiquette. I enjoy connecting with others, but please don't mistake that for being closed off or unfriendly. There are certain standards I believe should be upheld, especially when it comes to respect and boundaries.
For instance, I don't believe it is appropriate for a Dom (regardless of their gender) to reach out to a slave already in a committed relationship. They should respect those boundaries. If a Dom wants to befriend a slave, they should first approach the slave's Master for permission. I personally never add or converse with another Dom without my Masters' consent.
While my Masters trust me implicitly, they do step in if there’s any form of emotional manipulation or abuse. I value their guidance deeply. However, what really unsettles me is when a Dominant reaches out to me without respecting my relationship. To me it feels like a direct disregard for my Masters and our boundaries, and that’s a huge red flag. Why would I want to engage with someone who cannot show respect for my relationship?
Perhaps others have a different perspective, as it was a topic raised in a recent discussion. Some disagree with my views, but I suppose I’m simply more traditional in this regard. I love my Masters deeply and, while it is natural for people to be attracted to others, I have no interest in entertaining that temptation or allowing anyone to try and encroach upon what we’ve built.
In the past I have had people I considered friends attempt to blur these lines, and I make it clear where I stand. I refuse to tolerate any disrespect. If someone oversteps, I block them without hesitation. I don't play the second chance game or entertain apologies because I can see through those attempts. Respect for my partners and me isn’t negotiable. It is simple: either show us that respect, or don’t contact me at all.
