I’m curious to hear what other dommes have preferred and expected, and how and when you set your expectations.

In my experience the more seasoned subs tend to do the daily “good morning” message. I assume they picked this up along the way as most dommes I know set this as an expectation early on.

What other expectations do you have about communications and how early do you set those expectations?

In the first week of communicating I tend to be hesitant to give rules or tell someone how to message. I like seeing what their natural patterns are. At the same time, I like a high amount of communication and it can be frustrating for me if someone doesn’t match my preferences. And, of course, my tendency is to want to take control of the situation and tell him what I want.

I’m curious what has worked for you.
