ORIGINAL: BKSir What are we thinking? The exact same thing you are, "If I'm training her." Different methods and expectations for different people. And I know how my pet would behave, and if he didn't behave up to expectations, I'd find out. That's part of my training. Letting them go out on their own with the knowledge that just because I'm not there, they're still representing me, and everything they do directly reflects on me, so they should act accordingly. Fine; a different tack then.... What is it that you think is so all-fired important about a munch that you'd want your newbie sub to attend alone and expect her to be comfortable socialising with a bunch of complete strangers to her? I've been to a few dozen over the ages and I was unsurprised to find I learned exponentially more about the lifestyle dynamic from chatting with even a novice fem/sub than I ever learnt from mixing with a room full of those of "like mind". I also learnt that generally 2 out of 3 in attendance are male subs and if you're not a Domme, they're usually not too interested in talking to you - bar the very rare exception. And "letting them go out on their own"???? There are some things I don't expect to have to train my sub, such as how to function in the real world as a mature and independent adult. They bring that with them when we first meet or there'll be no relationship, let alone "training".... So again it comes back to this mystical munch. Your first time at everything leaves an imprint you never forget. I'm selfish enough to admit that if I'm fortunate enough to be training a sub in things she's never done before, then I want my imprint on those new experiences. So it's not just a munch, it's her FIRST munch. There's buggar-all of importance for her to learn by going but there is a new experience for her to savour - she'll wait until I can be available. Lol, tha hell you're thinking the same as me.... Focus.
