Welcome Yullie!
I hear you. It does take Time to Find, and then, get to Know, the right PPL. But don't lose Hope. Online communicating is hard, but it is a very usefull tool also, as you mention that you can Learn from PPL who will share with you. There are (from what I have seen on this site) what appear to be some very good Dominants that you may be able to Learn from, at least some things online.
As far as R/T, do take it slow, and most of all Be Safe.
Good Luck Yullie! <hugs>
