I met jounar here on lit. He posted in my pic thread one day, and became a regular visitor. He and I pmed each other at the same time one night, and then started talking on yahoo. *grins* it didn't take much time from there for me to be rushing home, ancious for him to be online, my heart would flutter when I saw him pop on. :heart: and well it just built from there.

My playmate, I've also told this story here, saw me at walmart and asked about my collar. we emailed for a while before Jounar said it was okay to meet him and about a month after that first meet at walmart we had our first playdate.
 
I actually met my Master/lover here on lit aswell- the very day that I joined lit. :p I made a post that I was looking for a Master and he was the first (and only) to respond. (Ha, I find it kind of funny that I had more responces when I was looking for Masters for my friends- but I guess it was just fate that we met.) He's actually sitting right next to me, watching me type this entire thing. :p But anyway, I'm really glad he and I met (not just saying that cause he's reading this either).
 
nice and soapy

i met my Master at uni less than a year ago- in the Laundette on campus of all places. It was really sweet, He had put too much detergent in the machine and it was frothing up a bit! i went to help Him and we just connected :) Spent ages talking, and while we were, i felt His dominating aura, and instantly the submissive in me reacted to it.
 
Oops, I voted in this poll at some point but must've gotten interrupted before I posted.

I met my now Daddy when we were both in high school together long before either of us ever started surfing the internet. We dated for a while, he moved away, I got side-tracked with a failed first marriage, then we found our way back to each other. We had remained friends the whole time.

We celebrate 19 years of marriage July 22nd.
 
Met my Dom here, quite accidentally. Commented on a story of his, asked him a few curious questions about the lifestyle, he was nice enough to answer and encouraged me to respond to my sub desires and here I am.

I met my husband almost 12 years ago in an AOL chatroom when a friend realized we shared a love of vampires and suggested we chat... a few months later, we met in person and I fell in love right then.

My Master and I met also online, but through an online game we both play. We were friends, and I thought he thought poorly of me. One day we just started to talk... and a little later, he mentioned something about me being sub.. and explained to me that I'd set off his Dom-dar. The talking turned to flirting.. which turned to him being my dom online.. which turned to "if we ever meet".. then it was.. when we meet... we met in person back in December and again, I knew I loved him right away.

I'm very happy and very lucky to have such men in my life
 
I met my bull 8 years ago at a munch. We zeroed in on one another immediately because we didn't fit in with the rest of the crowd very well (me to him, reading his name tag: "You're T---. Not Dragon Sheild.")

I met my husband three years after that, in an almost shocking repeat of the same scene. He dropped a bad line on me, I turned around and had a raw, visceral visual lust reaction. (Holy shit that man is beautiful. I'm not leaving here without his phone number.) And I didn't. Though I didn't find out he was even a bottom till we caught up again on the phone. His game improved too, he's never used a bad line on me since, except to crack me up.

H was a phone client. He was too damn fun, so I made him book a session in NYC. He was too damn fun and good again. Then he came to Mpls. and my husband took a shine to him and a little unforced bi action happened. Shit, I thought, you can't charge someone who's had your husband's cock in his mouth. So I didn't, and he's been my personal slave and my friend through a lot of shit since. He's the best thing I got out of my brief career.
 
Ours was a simple and rather non romantic meeting. I locked my keys in my car outside an alternative night club (I had spotted his rather dishy self inside, but being shy, I had not made a move) and he helped me break into my car... I offered to buy him dinner to say thank you... he accepted and just a little over a year later we were married... ;)

I adore how you manage your relationships without seeming to ever make anyone feel second besy or continually under threat of being found obsolete, or missing out on that part of you they need/want. It is an ability I rarely see in the many who have poly type relationships, and one to be admired. As usual Netzach, you impress me with the rare individual you are. :rose:

Very cool story of how you met...fate does often have a way of stepping in almost unnoticed. :cathappy:

I completely agree! I'm in awe of it.
 
LOL, thanks guys. Having three people so radically different you're not sure they're from the same planet helps. It's H I worry about, distance is a fucking killer.

Kitty and I went to school together in a tiny little county school. We had about 800 people in K-12 (yes, all in the same building). So even when we didn't hang out, we knew each other. ;) Anyway, we played softball together, and my senior year (her sophomore year), we became really good friends. We actually "got together" when I was a freshman in college, and she was a junior in high school. That was four and a half years ago. I've stayed with her for three times as long as I've ever stayed with a man. :D


As Bunny said we went to school together then played high school softball together then became friends and so on. I was drawn to her the second that I started playing softball with her. So, I just knew I wanted to be with her (friends at the time). I couldn't be any happier! :D :heart:

One night, I was invited to a a chat on AOL by a friend of mine, and there was this strange group of people in there, but it was fun. Anyway, there was this one odd chick that was kind of a dork (in fact her screen name even had dork in it) I got abandoned with in that room. We talked and flirted a bit. (I was still with a previous subbie at the time.) But there was enough of a connection to keep talking.

The next day, that subbie pulled the last of her disappearing acts, and I ended up hitting it off with that chick I was abandoned with, who I think corrupted by leading her into this deviant lifestyle, but as she discovered submission she lost her dorkiness. :heart:

wow..what a romantic story!! and He says I'M the dork??
 
And who said meeting online was a recipe for disaster?!!! We are still blissfully happy, one of our friends whom we converted to online dating has married and started a family, and now we just had news tonight another online relationship in our family is headed for matrimony early next year. Ain't love grand? :cathappy:

Catalina :catroar:
 
We are celebrating our first wedding anniversary next weekend - still blissfully happy if not more so than when we met 4 years ago :) :nana:
 
We met many many years ago at college and are married now. It was until about 3 years ago that we got into the domination scene.
 
I met "v" in college. Asked her to marry me a week after our first date. We just "knew". she said yes, and made me the happiest guy around. Seven years later we got married :D

About four years after we got married, she asked me to be her Dom, and thereby swung us both into the Lifestyle. That was about 5 years ago. We're still happy together. Perhaps even more happy these days.
 
I met...

I knew the Man who introduced me to BDSM my whole life, He was my dads best friend.

~~Can you tell I pine?.... *sigh*

And I met one guy online...

and for "play" partners, that sums it up...
Since I am only playing with myself. Haha *wink* *smile*
 
Im usually a lurker but this post seems like a fun one to answer. But I will say that I have learned alot from all of you reading all the posts on so many topics.

We met when we were 15. We grew up in the same town, went to school together, graduated in the same class. I had a HUGE crush on him back then and he liked me but we didnt know that at the time. We didnt find that out til last yr, I was looking at classmates.com one day and saw his name. I had moved away with my family after graduation from HS and he stayed there. I hadnt thought about him in yrs, looked at his profile and emailed him. He of course remembered me and we started emailing back and forth. Within a couple of months and a lot of catching up after 30 yrs we became more than just friends. Thru all our email and chats and me not coming right out and telling him that I was a submissive he knew. Must be that Domdar, lol. And like they say the rest is history. Its still mind blowing at times for both of us, who would of thought that when we were 15 and that this would have happened between us 30 yrs later. But I dont think that we could be any happier that it happened.

Well thanks, we think that its pretty cool too. I like I said who would have thought. We are both pretty new at this and are finding our way on this journey together its been so awesome so far. I guess that Im just lucky to have a Sir like that, hes the best.

I also wanted to tell you that I love your ropework, been admiring your pics. He's expressed interest in doing something like that, I'll have to show him that thread sometime.

Thank you for your comments! Feel free to have him contact me if he's got any questions. I'm always happy to talk rope :D
 
I met Cute Boy through an ad I had on CL for a bottom play-partner. He responded to my initial polite decline of playing with him because of his age by asking "why do you care how long it's been since my ass poped out of my mom's belly?". Being the sucker that I am for a little bit of arrogance, I started a conversation with him. We've had a few very sucessful and fun play-dates since.

I met Hot Goth Chick a year ago, through her primary partner, who I also met online. He and I went for a drink together, and while we had a lot of fun together and a great conversation, there was no attraction going on between us. He invited me back to his place to have another drink and meet his primary partner. There was something going on between Hot Goth Chick and I the minute we met each other. I'm not sure how to define our relationship: she and I are really good friend, I care about her a lot, I love to fuck her and play with her. But between our respective inhuman grad student workload and the time constraint of poly, we don't get to see each other very often.

Imaginary Girlfriend was a grad student in my program who I met through common colleagues/friends and became friend with. I've had a major crush on her since I met her a year ago, but saved for her last night in town before she left to move at the other end of the country, there was never anything else than a platonic friendship between Imaginary Girlfriend and I. But she's been my imaginary girlfriend for long enough that I thought she deserves a paragraph as well. sigh.
