I haven't ever experienced this lifestyle...even though the intrigue is there. Sure, I've run across men who say they are Doms, but I don't find they have my best interest at heart. I've learned enough to pick up on that. Anyway, what I wanted to say is there is this old saying, "Quality v. Quantity." I believe that is the key.
If a person is making their best effort to make the best of the time afforded them, then wouldn't you both feel more satisfied? One can make another feel important just by saying a few simple words...it's not magic. It's not going to happen instantaneously with someone new. Some time needs to be vested for both to feel there is the right connection in place for it to even get very far.
In instances where there isn't much time to talk with someone, then it might take longer than you hoped. The payback though, could be outstanding. Of course the drawback is that it doesn't work out, which happens in all sorts of situations. Patience is the key and expectations need to stay low in the beginning, otherwise no one will meet your desires.
Right but the problem comes in in the situation Loverskitten pointed out. How are we supposed to dominate someone when they don't have the time to actually be dominated. When someone comes to you and says I have this life that takes all of my time and I'd like you to add something to it, what do you do? You are a stranger to them yes, but if the person has no time to actually sit down and get to know you (I hate this phrase by the way I might just start a new topic about it), what do you do?
I'm not saying drop everything that is important to the sub. Having a life is great; it means you are determined and shows character. When you have no time to actually do anything with someone you are forming a relationship with, it becomes disheartening for the other person.
That was kind of the point of this thread to see if anyone else had experience what I had been experiencing a lot of the last few months. I've had quite a long dry spell.
