Hello, Adri.

I'm afraid that I can't much help you on the "lookin' for a Domme" front, but I did want to take a moment to welcome you. I think that the combination of reading, caution and respect for yourself are all tremendously prudent. The next steps, I suppose, are boldness and patience. You need to take the risk of reaching out to folks. See a post you like? PM the author with words of cheer or post thanks as a Visitor Message on her wall. See a fun and/or game that you think you could have fun with (or get gamey about)? Join in. Notice a new poster? Welcome them. Have an interesting story, reflection, fantasy, experience, or concern? Start your blog. Your actions, after all, are what form the community.

Then try to stick with it. Things rarely resolve quickly, but often resolve nicely.

Be good.

S.
