Email reply from Sir to kitten - January 30, 2019
This part of your letter has been on my mind all day
“Our connection is strange and backwards to anything else I’ve ever experienced. Usually I meet someone and within an hour (usually much less) I can tell if there’s a surface level spark. If there is, I try and spend more time with that person, usually sporadic and over the course of several weeks. The more often we see each other, the more we begin to open up and talk about things deeper than the weather. Usually its months and months into the blooming relationship before we finally delve into the depths of who we are as people, discovering what makes each other tick. That’s when you really discover if the spark is just surface level or something sustainable.
With you, it’s quite the opposite. Within a day or two of simple greetings, we delved right into the deep stuff. I’ve told you things I haven’t even told my closest friends. I’ve absorbed your every word like a sponge and I constantly thirst for me. I can’t get enough of you. I can’t wait days or weeks, I want, I need now. After just one week I know that I could happily swim around in your depths and make myself a home there… we just have to wait to see if that first hour spark exists."
Our connection is very different. It’s not very old but already feels so strong. I feel just as content learning about you and living in the depth of your words. It was hard to decide what else I wanted to say about it but I have settled for now on this. No matter what I am grateful for having met you, and I am very hopeful that we find that spark.

Backstory; Sir and I met on The Cage in January. I was a new member who’d jumped right into posting on forums and making my presence known. This had my inbox overflowing with messages from potential ‘Doms’. I had quickly become jaded and almost cringed when I’d see a new message notification. So many creepy, arrogant, and just plain odd messages that I’d started to think maybe The Cage wasn’t the place for me. Then I got a message with the subject line “good morning miss”. When I opened it up, I found a sweet, well written, simple and thoughtful message. This earned a reluctant smile from my skeptical lips. For the first time in a while, I decided to respond. His reply was quick, sweet, playful, and encouraged actual conversation in a way that flowed naturally.
Fast forward a week and about 150 messages later and I received the email above. Sir had decided that 600+ miles was not enough to keep him from taking me on a date. We just had to know if this connection we felt was real. He’d booked a flight and gotten himself a hotel room, all with the intention of just taking me for a cup of coffee. A cup of coffee turned into two days together and a feeling of such clear and unexplainable rightness that I knew my life had changed forever.
Our story taught me that there is no right way, no wrong way, no forwards or backwards, no timelines or deadlines when it comes to falling in love. When you meet your match, when you find your One, you just know. Maybe it’s a lightning strike or maybe it’s a slow descent. Love doesn’t come with a handbook and it isn’t black and white. Love is bold and subtle, it’s unexpected and yet obvious, it’s passionate but comfortable, it’s unpredictable and still reliable.
Write your own story. Be bold, take chances, and don’t let anyone tell you what you feel or how your story should look. For every rule, there’s an exception. So don’t give up and don’t back down. Trust yourself, because when you know, you KNOW.
