This post is going to be directed towards submissive ladies, probably around the ages of 20-35 or so, that are interested in exploring kinky power-exchange dynamics with an emotionally-intelligent Dom that's been around the block a time or two. While my goal is to eventually find a long-term partner to marry and start a family with, right now at least, I'm open to anything from casual play-partners to more serious dynamics, so long as my partner is clear about her intentions!

About myself: I'm a 31 year old American guy, relatively normal in most respects. I'm a homeowner, college-graduate, and a management professional in my day-to-day life. I stand 6 feet tall barefoot, with wide shoulders, shaved-head, beard and pale-blue eyes. I'm stable and solid.

Throughout both my personal and professional life, I've been counted on to be a leader, problem-solver, and initiative-taker. It's what I do best. But at the same time, I've been through a lot in my life that's tested my strength. I know what it's like to lose everything in the blink of an eye, and I know what's It's like to rebuild.

I'm fiercely independent, and protective of both myself and my family in every aspect. I do everything I can to ensure that the people around me are safe, secure, and happy. My home is a base for my family and friends that's always peaceful and open.

When I'm not working or with family, I've got a wide range of hobbies and interests that keep things fun and interesting. I've been running a podcast with a close buddy of mine for several years now, and I also love sports, reading, personal finance, tabletop games, and pretty much any outdoor activity. I also like writing, exploring, painting and anything that involves tools. I'm always trying to learn, grow, and expand my abilities as a leader in whatever opportunity arises.

As a Dominant in BDSM, I'm experienced in everything from impact play and orgasm-control, to structure-based dynamics, to dynamics bordering on TPE. My biggest kink is power-exchange both inside and outside of the bedroom, but I take a comprehensive approach to any dynamic, and make sure that my partner's needs are being met while also prioritizing her safety and well-being in the process. My limits are that I'm not interested in subbing in any capacity, not interested in anything illegal, and not interested in anything involving other men. I also expect safewords and signals to be in place and respected by both individuals.

I'm definitely a caretaker at the end of the day, and while I certainly love the sadistic side of BDSM and exercising control over my partner, my favorite aspect is aftercare and letting my sub melt in relaxation after a scene.

In a partner, I'm looking for a submissive lady that can add to my life, and that enjoys and appreciates everything I do and have to offer. In my personal life, my goals are focused right now on maintaining financial independence and developing and living a healthy lifestyle. I'm certainly not perfect and I don't expect perfect back, but at the same time, healthy food and a reasonable amount of activity is becoming a necessity to me. If you describe yourself as 'BBW', we probably won't be a good match.

I value service-oriented submission the most, and my goal is to get my sub involved in all the things that I have going on, but offer room to serve me and my goals at the same time. Trad-wife with an edge to her is the dream, but if you just want to be a house-slave in a home where there's always something to do, we might be a fit too.

If any of this struck a chord, and you'd like to talk more, please reach out and send me a chat! I've had some good luck in the past on this subreddit, but I haven't found that perfect match just yet. I'm happy to exchange pictures and/or contact info if a connection actually takes off and mutual comfort is established, and I'm certainly open to meeting up in person eventually too, I can travel and I can host! Priority will definitely be placed on people closer to the Great Lakes area, but if you're serious about an eventual in-person dynamic, feel free to reach out!
