How well should I know a dom before, he calls me his? How well do you know yourself? What are you ready for? What are your goals? What is your 'ideal'? Hope you have answers and those thoughts in mind if you are considering any relationship. quote:
Any advice to anyone who is starting a new relationship with a dom? Take your time, or speed up and be owned by him. Both options are possible. What is impossible if for you, or him, commit unilaterally. I guess you've been physically naked with him, so it should be easy to remove some of protective emotional and mental clothing. I hope you didn't let one opportunity you've disclosed pass you by. You say he referred to you, or at least a body part of yours as "his". Obviously you feel something, some connection, based upon that remark. Who knows whether it was his 'tell' that there is some deeper interest in forming a relationship with you. You could find out by asking him; "what do you mean by that?" It's not topping from the bottom or any of those things that some sub book says not to do. You have an opening for communication, benchmarking, and determining if he and you have the same perspective about each other and any potential relationship. Use opportunities, don't be afraid to get naked and hope that your partner wants to, and more importantly has the confidence, to do the same. The problem isn't knowing when the timing is right. It could be right at the first glance. The problem is when one side moves at a speed that leaves the other in the dust. Casual sex, or intense long term 24/7 relationship; the participants have to be running parallel. You can't go it alone, run fast, believing you've found your 'one', and think you can just wait for them to catch up and realize they've found their 'one' too. As an individual, you have to be at or close to, the pace of your potential partner, never letting them get too far ahead or behind. If they do - it's over before it starts. What does he mean? What is his perspective and goal? "Casual sex" or 'ownership'; you can't find out that answer from an on-line thread. The answer to "how well you know your dom before he calls me his?" comes from getting naked with him, and him getting naked with you. Some people are ready for that out of the gate - some have never seen their partner 'naked'. Its very empowering for the relationship while and for the individuals willing to do so - confidence building. Good luck!
