| Reader's Digest version to save folks time who don't like reading long profiles: I'm not seeking a dominant partner. People have various reasons for being here on Collarme, and my profile clarifies that, so read it for more details.

Now, on to the longer version...
If I've viewed your profile, please unbunch your knickers, take a deep breath, and RELAX. I KNOW you're not looking for a 47-year old short, fat, married sub. So...what WAS I doing viewing your profile? Two most likely reasons: 1. I probably clicked on it after reading something interesting you posted on the Message Boards and wanted to know more about the person behind the words. I'm nosy curious that way. Or, 2. I clicked on it to read your entire interesting profile (you can't possibly be unhappy that someone took the time to read what you took time to write, right?).

Friends welcomed. Let's be clear that it's as simple as friends = the common meaning of "friends", NOT friends = acting like a friend until you can weasel in an attempt to engage in sexual conversation. Honest intent when you're a friend is just as important as honesty when you're looking for a submissive partner.
Short, fat, married*, blue-eyed, short-haired brunette, intelligent, well-read, educated, sense of humor, curious, honest, full of opinions and still a good listener, interested in the world around me and in learning from those who know more.
*Yes, he knows. No, he doesn't participate.
No, I don't cyber. Ever. More power to you if that's your bent, but I think it's like talking about good wine instead of drinking it.
If you're married, why don't you just put it out there up front in your profile? When exactly are you going to bring up that vital fact with the potential partners you contact? Do you think beginning a relationship with someone under false pretenses bodes well for the future (when she finds out the truth)?
I am normally quite polite, expect the same from others, and respond to most emails promptly. BUT, if you're going to opportunistically see me logged on and simply type "Hello", you've no reason to get pissed off if I respond back with only "Hello" as well. Remember: THIS IS THE INTERNET and no one owes you a thing (nor should you expect it....that way you're never disappointed). I may be submissive here, but I don't put up with bullshit in the rest of my life and certainly won't from a complete stranger. Before you hit "Send", ask yourself: Would I approach a woman in any other venue the way I'm approaching her here on CM?
I do not chat on CM or Yahoo or anywhere else with strangers, just as I only use CM Mail and don't share my personal email address with those I don't know. No, you're not the exception. No, I'm not kidding. :)
If your profile is blank (filling out the checklist doesn't count) or you have failed to read my profile first (hey - I spent time here writing it so you could get an idea of who you're contacting). I'm unlikely to converse with you. If you are unwilling to write a few coherent, meaningful words about yourself, that's your choice; my choice is not to engage with people who don't demonstrate a little personal effort. Your profile is a short "ad" and an excellent way to get an initial flavor for how you see yourself, and how much care you take in presenting yourself to others.
Well, if you're read this far, I'll also share that I am a voracious reader, news junky, solid cook, happy sci-fi and fantasy geek, fanfiction beta, leader, like gay (male) porn/erotica and slash fiction (look it up), am opinionated and love a good discussion (NOT argument), employed in a professional job, a responsible citizen and volunteer, sensualist (never pain-seeking or desiring of humiliation) and an adult. I don't waste my time or emotions on others who don't in turn act like adults (I reserve the right to be snarky to authors of immature messages....I get to have fun once in a while, don't I?!) I respect others who have their life together and don't lie from the start hoping to disclose the truth later (hello, married men, if you're wondering why you don't get any responses, don't you realize it may be because using the word "discreet" in your profile = "I'm cheating on my wife, and can't be trusted with you either?"), are intelligent from any number of experiences (am not an education snob, and value others with life experiences), fun, animal lover, and caring.
And for crying out loud, do you like women? Or are you just some frustrated loser who comes here anonymously hoping to be mean to others. Grow up, or go play computer games in your mother's basement instead. :)
Be well, ~ DMinCT
P.S. That cute little animal? It's called a "mouse lemur", and I think I'm a bit cuter, though not as fuzzy.
P.P.S. Messages that are received saying "tell me about yourself" are GUARANTEED to receive a snarky answer. WTF....after 750+ words in this profile, what more do you want? Be specific! *laughs*
