Hello, I'm new-explorer, and I guess it would be obvious by my name that this is all new to me...or is it?

In past relationships I had always felt that something was missing, and I always blamed myself for it, I felt that I wasn't good enough, always tried to do better. I have come to realise now that I was just never with someone who could accept what I was offering, can't really blame them...I didn't know what I was offering either.

About a year and a half ago I ended a 13 year relationship and began MY life, I started talking to people and looking at things on-line, about 6 months ago a light bulb came on for me and I realised that I am submissive.

In the last several months I have talked to anyone who could offer me any kind of guidance in learning more about myself, I have become so much more secure in myself than I have ever been, although I still feel I have a long way to go.

I very recently met someone who is at about the same place as I am, he has recently discovered that he is interested in exploring his dominant side. I guess at this point I am just wanting to learn as much as I possibly can, and hope that the bond that has already begun to form for us grows to something I can't yet even imagine.

Any guidance and suggestions are welcome as my eyes are getting square from looking at this monitor.
