If you were a fish, what kind of bait would a fisherman need to use to hook you on his line? And what kind of bait keeps you there?

In other words: What kind of things attract you to a particular person - a potential Dom/me or sub? And what keeps you coming back for more?

Do you swim in the shallow end, where the sun shines or are you more likely to be snared in the deep, mysterious waters?

Oh, alright ya big pussies.... I'll go first.

Subtlety and fear... hooks me big time.

Oh yeah and, I like to think I swim in the deep end... but I really know better.

A clown fish, of course.

But it would have to be really intelligent bait - no simple worms for this sucker.

Do you have a 5?

Go fish!!! Does anyone have any queens?

Uniqueness and imperfection lure me in. And the woman that is me made over has kept me...

I think I swim in the middle of the pool where it starts to dip, dreaming about the tatse of the deep end thinking one day I make it there for a visit but I will surely return
 
I am still cowering in the shallow end like one of those flat fish.

Hoping no-one would notice me but jmping like a salmon when He did.

The bait that reeled me in...intelligence, fear & the lure of the handcuffs :D
 
Intelligence, playfullness, stubborness and honesty hook Me. The need to go deeper and deeper keeps Me interested. I like to swim in the deep end of the pool where its edgy and dark.

Good question little one.

I'm a musician...I go for groupers. What keeps me hanging around would be a nice looking grouper with a sweete little tail fin.
 
Attract? Surprises. Which usually means intelligence or creativity and cunning. Initially, especially, someone who is really interested in me, is not surprisingly, attractive. I'm a sucker for appreciation. Can't say the same things attract me all the time, but a wicked sense of humor will keep me coming back, though playfulness will hook me, too. It's hard to find both kinds of humor in the same person. Someone who at least occasionally has flashes of sharp insight.

It's been 24 years with the same man and he's the only person I've ever not gotten sick of. I just like to be around him all the time and don't know why. And he still catches me by surprise.

Ultimately, I think it's more chemistry than anything, once you get to physical contact. Before that, that it feels good being around the person.

Not gonna get into that whole fishy thing, as like Kajira, I'm a cat person. And, I'd found that often those deep-appearing, mysterious waters belonged to a tall silent type who turned out to be silent because he just had nothing interesting to say. And that the sunniest waters can have suprising depths. (Besides, I'm full of enough angst and complication for the both of us.)

Stubborness... boy, knowing you, does that make sense. ;-) There's a challenge in that, isn't there? And overcoming someone's stubborness is a victory, too.

~~grin~~ you certainly do know Me rosy girl.

Turning stubborness to acceptance is delightful and well worth the bother if the stubborness is authentic and not simply provocation.

That's just downright poetic. Very nice.

I do like how you think. I think we are very similar women.

Absolutely. And nothing makes more sense than you as a clown fish. ;-)

Nice post, on a whole lot of levels. Thank you.
 
We've had lots of threads like this one... this is not a new idea for this forum. But one thing that happens when you post it again and rephrased is that other people tend to come out and post to it... people some of us have never heard from before or rarely hear from. It's always fun to see a few new or seldom seen "faces" add their insights.

Always like to appeal on a whole lotta levels. Thank you back.:D

Great thread, btw. Whether or not it's been asked before I haven't been around long enough to know but so often it's how you ask what you ask that can get to something deeper. Especially when you go all metaphorical on our asses.
Something about poetry and metaphor gets to a deeper level. That image cotton candy eater used about where the water dips has stuck in my mind. There you are going all casually and merrily in the water, walking at a gradual even pace when suddenly there's the point where the shelf drops down and your feet no longer touch solid known ground.
 
Honesty.... combined with intelligence and consistancy.... those get me everytime....
 
Mmmmm

The more I know the less i know or is that understand

mystery whaaaat is that?

conundrum and submission hand in hand


but I love it

You didn't fool me. I knew it was a thread to make you think and open up about yourself, all along. :p

Curious...where does the consistancy fit in?

Consistantly smart?
Consistantly Domly?
Consistantly HARD? (horny would also fit here)
Consistantly hungry?
Consistantly wears jeans?
Consistantly wears underwear?
Consistantly washes underwear?
Consistantly watches Leave it to Beaver?
Consistantly asks stupid questions like this?

I guess I'm in a inquisitive mood, today. So, I guess I'm consistantly inquisitive.:rolleyes:
 
The bait. Self assuredness, self confidence, obviously happy in his own skin. Blatent and blunt honesty.Thats a trait most of my friends have and I admire, even if it hurts sometimes.I need to know where I stand.
The thing that keeps me hooked. Intelligence, Inventiveness. Adaptability.The fact that he studies my actions and reactions and changes tack accordingly and frequently.
Like my freshwater turtle,I live in the depths, but come up to play and feed in the sunny shallows.
