ORIGINAL: Laura I do not meet male subs or any other guys at their place. I pick a coffee shop or let them pick it. After talking I go home, alone. That is a big rule for me. Never go anywhere with him after the first meeting. Take that time to think about over night. Sometimes I am less careful in the moment than I am if I get away for a bit and have some perspective. I have had men suggest I am too careful. That is a flashing neon sign to me. A guy should respect that a woman wants to be careful. If they do not, why are you meeting a dork like that? He won't suddenly respect you more the next day, week, etc. To me that's it in a nutshell. I think 99% of people are sane enough that you're gonna walk out of there alive...BUT...what's it worth to me to play with someone who doesn't give a crap about how I feel? Like Laura says, they aren't going to suddenly change. I know the OP, Ocean Gem, personally, and she's an experienced, real time player in our community. She knows her way around. I agree with her frustration in dealing constantly with people who think being a bottom/sub means you instantly take orders from anyone who asks. I didn't go home with strangers when I went to bars in my youth and I don't do it now that the internet has partially replaced having to get showered and dressed and leave the house to find a date.
