What's Going On?

I often claim that I am just a simple girl from the middle of the middle...Kansas. The truth about me is that simple is a matter of perception. Of course, based on BDSM lifestyle experience, I am a wide eyed, curious, eager to learn, newbie with enough knowledge to know that experience is the only way I will ever truly learn what I want and what I don't want. It amazes me how much I learn about this lifestyle and how much I have yet to learn. I'm a researcher and learning is a gift to me. It is very unfortunate that I do live in an area where events and non-judgemental people are scarce. I'm also shy (or scared) to escape from here alone. I would love to find someone who will be a mentor to me and become a friend that would help me explore and attend events.
