Hello! Calling for all online/LDR comrades, what you find hard when engaging in a virtual dynamic, and how you make your way around it to stay in that power exchange role. Let me start first:

I always find it hard to submit fully when all I have is a mental image of your Dom (during self-guided play), I feel I can always get away with things if I didn't tell him (stealing orgasm or lying about finishing tasks) but that's when the guilt will come and I will feel useless when that I'm unable to be fully submissive and not I feel like I'm not serving him as I should, or simply when during session I feel frustrated on why he isn't here to do all this stuff to me or me to him.

How I overcome: I will remind myself that if I did this, would it be fun for our dynamic? Would it please him? My servitude increases in fold when I perform to him with enthusiasm as a way to please him. I remind him to increase the mental domination, taking control more so I would be his slave in the virtual space even though there is no physical domination involved.

It's hard, but it's doable if both parties work their way toward it. That being said, let's hear yours. I love to learn more.
