Hello fellow s-types!

I'm fairly new to this all- I got interested in the scene not quite a year ago. In that time I've been researching and learning, and for the last few months also opened myself up to experimenting some as well. I've had a few more casual encounters, but they've been more physical (i.e. restraint and spanking) than psychological (i.e. rules, dirty talk). None of which I considered the other person "my Dom."

The reason I'm writing is I recently started talking with a Dom who seems like he could be a really good match for me, and I want to make sure I do things "right." For example, last night he asked if I'd want refer to him as "Sir." I really do, but I also feel like I'd like things to be a little more official... To me, using that term means that person is my Dom, and I feel like there's a lot that goes along with that. Then again, maybe I'm just overthinking it.

But I think hearing how others have gone about this stage would be super helpful, so I'm curious to hear your stories!

How did the D/s part begin for you? How did you know you wanted to submit to that person? Did you have some kind of negotiation, and if so what did you cover/how did you go about it? Do you wish you would've waited? Done it sooner? Done something more or less official? Or anything else you would've done differently?

Tell me everything pretty please! 😁

(And thanks in advance 💝)
