for the past couple of weeks i have been conversing with a Gentleman who i would now like to consider meeting face to face. we have had discussions about what expectations we each have and things seem to be compatible for the most part.

i have figured out all the safety aspects of meeting a stranger that, even on-line, seems to be able to make me feel more submissive then i have ever. before we meet i will secure and verify his full name, address and phone number. give that to a friend along with our meeting place, itinerary and will call her at set times. it's not that i expect problems, i would just prefer to be safe.

what i would like is some suggestions of things i should be looking for in an experienced Dominant .. things that may clue me into issues of safety (emotional and physical). are there questions, that in your experience, you would have asked at an earlier stage? note: i have been very clear about my hard limits and desires. and he has reciprocated to an extent.

thank you for your time and thought.
