I just found your blog recently–thanks to Bitchy! As Stephanie and DommeAmelia said, I find your posts sincere and charming. I can only imagine what it’s like to be a submissive man. It’s not that easy to be a dominant (or switch) woman either, especially if one gets so trapped in roles that one can’t establish clear communication. It’s too bad you live in NYC and not in Boston.

Persephone- Thanks! I suppose it’s all a matter of how you look at it.

Eileen- As soon as I get the guts…you’re on!

Stephanie and E- I’m blushing

DommeAmelia- It’s probably a combination of the beer at the time I wrote it, the ache I was feeling at the time to be owned and…maybe a little poetic.

I think most people who need to have someone in their lives may feel incomplete or perhaps a bit broken.

I’ll go with “charming” as well…raise it with a “smart” and “funny”, too.

I’ll agree with you that blatant over-eagerness can put people off, but you know, directness and honesty have a lot of appeal, to people with good character at least.

Don’t know where the lady you seek might be found…but she damn well should appreciate you when you both finally meet. : )

hugs, E

I’m relatively new to your blog, and am enjoying it very much. I second Stephanie’s “charming” remark.

But I want to ask about this: “Some move to New York to get their big break. I moved here to find someone to find me broken and put me back together.”

How–in what way–is it exactly that you think you are broken? Or were you just being poetic?

Maybe I’m odd (ok, ‘maybe’ is just me being hopeful) but I find your posts charming, smart and funny. Although I don’t know you personally, I am learning from you and it is appreciated.

Sure, if you’d like. Email me sometime and we’ll chat about it. Be warned in advance, I’m a seamstress, which makes me a geek about fashion.

moving halfway across the country to pursue your real self does not show desperation. i think that it shows strength and independence and courage.

Eileen- Thanks! And feel free to give me any fashion advice as well:)

May- I guess if being a submissive guy were easy everyone would do it….and I don’t need anymore competition hehe.

Spellcheck? What is this thing you speak of?

Serves me right for writing it on the subway on my iphone.

Owch. Y’know, it occurs to me that I don’t read many other male submissive’s blogs, though I do like some. Frankly, they’re too inauthentic. I don’t think this kind of honesty is something I would ever even put on my own blog, but I hope you know that you’re not alone. Believe me, you’re not alone—and it’s not just me out there from whom you’re getting empathetic thoughts.

Almost all the other sub guys out there I’ve come across are either uninteresting thanks to their monotony or are too obsessed with either their fantasies or their efforts to come across as ever more submissive to be anything other than a clear facade.

Being a submissive guy is really, really tough. That’s a huge part of what my blog is about, though I’m obviously more bitter than desperate (and that’s not because I have a relationship).

For what it’s worth, I think this kind of honesty is a Good Thing. And, y’know, so is a spell checker.

Honey, I would find it hilarious and touching if our relationship was responsible for May’s wisdom and confidence. In fact, May has changed very little since we found each other. I will happily take credit for him dressing better, but that is all.

As for your ability to carry out the guidelines he set forth, although our interactions face-to-face have been remarkably limited, I’d say you’re doing better than you might think you are.
