Calm down people. Lots of useful advice from some useful people.

I've been on here quite a while, and out and about in the real world. It isn't easy to find someone who will do all the things you want doen. Such people DO exist and you'll find them in the pro-dom section.

The other option to going to a munch is to go to a real party, such as Ann and Roly's, a bit out of your way, but, hey, loads of peeps go there from all over, including Reading and Oxford. It's a nice atmosphere and I've met some lovely people there in the time I've been going. You never know, you may just find someone who will do some of the things you want done, in public, in private, and for free. You may even meet up with the one you really want to spend the rest of your life with.

Get out and about. Life's for real, so are most of the folk on here,

I don't understand the "do-me sub sexual commands" reference...

A do-me sub is one who claims to want to submit to someone else but actually has a shopping list of things they want done to them. So rather than dominating and being in charge, the Dom/me is merely expected to act out the do-me sub's demands for their satisfaction. The emphasis is on what the Dom/me is going to do to them, rather than what they are going to do for the Domme. Of course, everyone has their own kinks and preferences and it is good to give some idea of what you like, but if your list solely comprises of what you want doing to yourself, and not what you can offer or are willing to do for a Domme, then you end up coming across as a do-me sub, rather than someone whose main aim is to ensure that their Domme is pleased and satisfied by the experience.

That makes sense. I find nothing less exciting than a woman "doing stuff" to me because she knows I like it. If she likes what is happening, within limits, I'm happy!

However, if I got rid of my list of interests and replaced it with a statement that I am primarily interested in doing things that please, I'd probably be complained at for not have enough detail on my profile... Believe me, it has happened!

Why not change it from "things I like" to "things I have experienced" or "things I have enjoyed" and take time to explain *why* you like them? At the moment it reads like a shopping list.

Surely having been in a DS relationship for 2 years indicates that I know dominant women have real jobs, real families, real worries, and need real relationships that extend beyond play time?

And when I say I am looking for a domme who is caring and has a sense of humour, surely this indicates that I don't only require a "girl who will do kinky things to me...?

And above all, I would have thought that by saying that in truth I am looking for romance, but that it has to involve being "brutalised a little" pretty much sums up the fact that I'm not a "do-me sub"...

It's not so much what you say, but the way you say it. There seems to be an over emphasis on the roles, at the expense of the real people. In your profile, there is no real sense of who you are. That's my personal opinion, of course, but other ladies have mentioned it too.

I think persistence may have been the root of the problem in this case ;)

Although maybe my Greek username is a bit hard to get the tongue around...!

Unfortunately, pictures are a no-no. You never know where they'll end up...

Pictures dont need to give anything away. Many people have pictures which do not identify themselves. Take mine for example, I doubt you would be able to identify me in a line up ;)

user name is lovely and should not change it (those who cant pronounce it can always call you darling!) rewrite your profile- it's a must! show more of your personality and tell us who you really are (and yes you can mention your kinks but dont make it sound like a shopping list!) be witty and funny, works everytime! finally put up pics of things you like/represent you or your personality. some body shots would also be nice so us ladies can have an idea what you vaguely look like (yes EVERYBODY is a little shallow)

I really did think this was going to be a complete train wreck at the expense of the OP - another one of "those" threads!

I'm actually rather impressed with the attitude of the OP, the ability to laugh at himself, and still come back trying to make the best of things by taking advice from the same people who (rightfully) tore into his original complaint. That takes self confidence, and balls in my opinion - so good on you OP.

The name is fabulous, the profile needs work (yes I recognise the irony considering my current profile), but above all, get out there and meet people.

I spent the first year online dating, and whilst I would go out on the scene, it certainly wasn't to meet anyone. I still think online dating is a good option, but opening yourself up to meeting people in r/l, creating friendships first, allows for so many more chances to meet someone special.

Seven pages of memos is a lot (I've only got two and a bit :( ) - about 210 memos.

I think it obviously depends on browsers and settings and such (insert any type of technical jargon that I don't understand), as at the moment I only have about 120 memos - yet they are over four pages.
