I placed an ad last week with alt.com, an alternative lifestyle personals site. Hopefully I will meet my soul mate, life partner, my Master. If not, at least I should get some experience. It feels great to talk with men that are actually available and to be considering dating again. It's been close to a year and a half since I dated anyone, so it feels kind of weird but the possiblities that could come of it are wonderful. There's this one guy, M, I've only been e-mailing with him for 3 or 4 days but it seems like we have a lot in common. Now I just need to have some restraint and not rush anything. I think I've gotten better at that. Anyway, I am just happy about this. :-)
