If I had a dime for every time I heard that phrase, Donald Trump would be asking ME for loans. Now that I have branched out into the world of Social Media, I get pestered about contractual slavery on a regular basis. I’m not going to discuss the topic of long distance training here today, but rather the unrealistic expectations of those who are more local to me. To start things off I will directly quote a recent email I received:
“My deerest Queen,
It is with the utmost devotion, respect, and truthful admiration that I write to you. After reading many of the captions on your website I am truly impressed with
many aspects but most of all your deep understanding of what it means to be a dominant female goddess! I want to be honest and open as I possibly can in my
reason for writing to you today. I am 33 yo, a respectful and positive gentleman who has a mostly untapped desire to TRULY serve at your feet as a devotee if that is
something you might be open to. My urge to be under the spell of a queen is limitless (as far as I know) and am looking for a chance, an opportunity, to meet someone
such as yourself, not as a client mind you but more as a lifetime pet, if qualified. “
This guy goes on to say how he’s had a few sessions a few years ago, but it’s pretty obvious he thinks he can circumvent the client route. No, he thinks he’s in the “lifetime pet” category.
If you are reading this and you find yourself thinking the same things as this guy, I have some advice for you: DON’T BE THAT GUY.
Now you’re thinking to yourself, “Well what’s wrong with what he wrote? At least he’s being honest with you.” Yes, that’s just it. He’s letting me know that he doesn’t want to be a paying client. He just wants to some how bypass that role and head straight into “lifetime petdom.”
I have news for you guys out: I don’t want a lifetime ANYTHING. That’s why I don’t have any tattoos. I change my mind every couple of years and I can’t stand the thought of being stuck with something that I might not like in a decade or so. Next: I don’t want a frickin’ pet. I have two. They are orange and black and I don’t want anymore animals around the house. Yes, he was referring to something else and I’m getting to that.
Asking a Pro Domme to be her personal/lifetime/non-paying/all purpose soaker-upper-of-her-time is pretty audacious. You don’t know anything about her other than some pretty pictures you’ve seen on the interwebs, and some text that she (or someone else) has written. You might even have viewed some moving pictures of her on that thing we call Youtube. You, being a simple-minded man, are already in love and have made plans in your head to spend the rest of your life serving this amazing woman doing her beck and call. She, however, is not on the same page.
You are NOT a special and unique snowflake. You ARE the all-singing, all-dancing crap of the world. Yes, I just quoted Fight Club and that’s just one of the many things you don’t know about ME. You don’t really have any idea of who I am as a person, which is what counts the most in ANY relationship. You are just one more guy who has sent a simpering email to me begging to some how not have to pay a red cent to spend inordinate amounts of time with me….Good luck with that bro. In the immortal words of someone whom, I think is one of the lowest people on earth, you have to, “Pay up sucker.”
So now you’re mad and you think I’m all about the money. Trust me, if money were my first motivation, I would NEVER have stuck with this profession. It ranks right along with farming as far as projections for personal wealth versus amount of time and effort contributed to the endeavor. Money makes the world and MY business go round. Even more so, it helps to set you apart from every other no-job-having guy who just wants to be around me.
My advice to anyone who wants to attempt to go the “personal slave” route with an established Pro Domme is this: Skip the email litany and book a session.
Now you are saying, “But I don’t want to spend any money!”
I say, “Too bad.” Here is why you MUST spend SOMETHING in order to advance your cause:
You need to see if you have ANY chemistry with the Mistress in question. If you want to be her personal slave, then it stands to reason that you WILL BE doing some SM with her AT SOME POINT, right? Oh, that’s right. You’re different. You just want “to serve.” <Insert eye roll here> No you don’t. You SAY that to make yourself seem more GENUINE. Now, back to what I was saying before. You need to establish a number of things before you are able to make your pitch to a Pro Domme. Book a session and see how it goes.
This will enlighten you to a number of things. You will get to meet her, spend a short period of time with her, and see if you leave her studio still feeling as energized as you did when your little pecker first got hard when you saw her photos. Speaking of photos, you will also get to see first hand if she even resembles the images on her website. Lots of Mistresses don’t seem to care that their publicly viewed photos don’t look anything like them in person due to weighloss/gain, bad skin, child-birth, hair-color, 10+ years of aging, etc. You will find out about this if you book a session.
Next piece of advice: book another session. Now you’re saying, “NO WAY! I’m not spending THAT MUCH on someone with whom I JUST WANT TO SERVE.” Suit yourself…Here is what you will learn after a second session. You will find out if the first session was just a fluke. Are you still feeling all pitter patter over this Lady? Does she still look as good to you? Does she still seem so completely interesting as a few months ago? If she doesn’t, then you know that you need to move on with your search. If she DOES still seem like someone with whom you’d like to spend a lot of time…read on.
Book another session. Ok, now you’re pissed. This is getting way TOO expensive for your bank account. If you think that is truly the case, stop your search now. Pro Dommes are high maintenance women (and not how you think I mean that). If you’re too broke to worry about less than $1000 going out of your bank account, then you won’t be a good match over the long term. Most Pro Dommes have had enough of their time wasted by unemployed or underemployed potential “slaves.” They want to be around successful men who aren’t worried about spending money on a Lady. This is why you should book that third session–but there is something that you should include with this particular meeting. Politely inquire as to whether or not she will join you for a nice meal after the session. Her response will vary, but IF she agrees, then you will have your first opportunity to see how you two react to each other in public. You will get to see if she eats like a prisoner or she has good table-manners. She will get to see the same of you. Do you act like a gentleman or are you loud and boorish? Do you make the amazing faux pas of ORDERING FOR HER (that’s a whole ‘nother story though)? The most important aspect of your meeting will be IF YOU TWO HAVE ANYTHING TO TALK ABOUT. Isn’t that the basis of any good relationship? How do you fill the empty spaces of time? You speak to each other. OH WAIT! That’s right! You JUST WANT TO SERVE SO CONVERSATION IS UNIMPORTANT. Right…<insert another eyeroll here> Since your long-term plan is to live in a box in the garage, you won’t ever have to exchange anything more than a muffled, “Yes Mistress, whatever you say Mistress.” You won’t ever be asked your opinion about anything because you’re just a worthless slave and nothing you say matters…I forgot about that. Moving right along…
Ok, so you have that third session and dinner goes GREAT. As a matter of fact you are even MORE smitten with her now than ever before. You race home and begin to compose a long email to her expressing your desire to become her “lifetime pet.” right?
WRONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (say that like John McClaughlin on the McClaughlin Group)
No, you wait. You wait about a month. Work on your yard. Hit the gym a bit more (you DO go to the gym right???). If after a month you are STILL thinking about this particular Mistress THEN, and ONLY THEN, can you send her a SUCCINCT COMMUNICATION. This will consist of a polite inquiry about whether she needs any help cleaning her studio or doing any small repairs. You stress that you are NOT seeking her time for free, but that you will gladly compensate her for a fee that you two can agree upon. Yes, you still have to pay her.
She might turn down your request and say that she already has a dungeon slave. She might say that her personal slave does that. She also might say that she thinks that most men are lousy at domestic chores and she thinks that you are no different. So now what?
You are certainly entitled to communicate with her more about how you ultimately would like to serve her in a more non-session environment, but be prepared for her to not be amenable. Yes, even after all that time and money she still might say NO. However, you will NOT leave empty-handed because now you will have a PROFESSIONAL REFERENCE. Politely request that if you mention her to other Mistresses when they ask for a reference that she will say something kind about you. This will most likely happen and it is an invaluable tool in continuing your search.
You should expect to wash, rinse, and repeat this process possibly for the rest of your life. Wait. Did I just say, “FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE?” Yes, I did. A personal BDSM relationship is one of THE most illusive pairings on this earth. I know men who have been spending the better part of a decade on this effort and are still searching. They are having fun in the process, but they are still ultimately alone.
If you are lucky, you will end up serving a Domina on a limited basis in her studio or MAYBE her residence cleaning and running errands for her. She most likely will never fall in love with you and will only ever view you as a slave–nothing more and nothing less. If you are able to have a relationship like this that lasts for longer than a year, consider yourself lucky. That will mean you haven’t driven her crazy and she enjoys having you around for some reason.
If you haven’t figured out the point of this post yet, then I will spell it out to you. YOU NEED TO GET TO KNOW SOMEONE BEFORE YOU START TO SERVE THEM LONG TERM. You also need to figure out a way to stand out from the already crowded field of applicants. The way to do this was outlined above.
Now there are other options that consist of contacting non-Professionals, but you’re not into that right? You think YOU are something special so you’re going to set your sights on the top of the Dominant Woman Heap. The non-Pro route will most likely yield more results over the long-term, but why should you pay any attention to what I have to say? You’re a slave and you will get what you want…
