Does a Sub talking to a Dom mean that she is automatically interested in becoming theirs? I mean, I am still relatively new to this community and I honestly don’t know if there is some secret BDSM etiquette that perhaps I am missing. Just because I speak with another person (whether D/s/switch etc), it doesn’t necessarily mean I am interested in them on a personal level. I respond to almost all of the messages I receive and generally enjoy speaking to all fellow kinksters. Clearly, I don’t want to give off the wrong vibe, I’m just learning the ropes so to speak. Gaining valuable information through the experiences and opinions of others.
Is there a general unspoken rule that i should be aware of? so that I may avoid offending others. Perhaps something that states that any D/s Who communicate are a “perspective” to the other unless stated from the beginning of communications?. I personally thought it would have been rather clear, but now I’m not to sure.
Hello CuriousK
A ‘single’ sub is the person who is in control until THEY decide and THEY choose what to give to a Dom.
You are in charge, just like if you were in a pup and a guy came over and struck up a conversation.
You might be flirty and stare intently into his eyes and giggle over every little think he says.
You might find him interesting and discuss politics and the meaning of life.
You might find him and the conversation boring after a few sentences.
You might find him uncomfortable and a bit of a Sleazeoid.
In each of the above situations you decide what and how you are going to interact in the way you choose.
It is a little different face to face than being online, that is true, but the principal is the same.
When I have met with subs in the past, in real life, who have shown an interest in me, until I get the green light, that woman holds all the cards.
And it may be of worth to know, I have always said “If I say something that makes you feel uncomfortable, tell me. If I do something that makes you uncomfortable, tell me. If you decide I’m not the one for you, tell me. I will not take offence or be insulted. I do not want you feeling or being uncomfortable”
Rightly or wrongly, as a sexually dominant Dom, I saw it as my roll to make my perspective sub/play partner feel at ease from the gecko.
To read the signs showing before me.
Hang on, I better check your original post.
I feel like I may be waffling.
Yep I think I was.
Basically, say what you want to say to whom you want ....... but be honest, polite, respectful and kind.
If you think something may offend, ask and check first.
If someone is getting the wrong vibe, that’s their problem. They have made the mistake, not you.
If someone is being an annoying jack-ass... smile and repeat after me “Don’t let the door smack ya on the way out buddy. I’m a sub, but I’m not your sub. Nor will I ever be”
Here endeth the reading.
