Hey Goalie, I'm wondering, is this question more along the lines of "how do I find my soulmate" or "how do I stop being taken advantage of by guys?" Because if it's the first, how to find a soulmate, that takes time. Lots of time, lots of tears. I have gone on a lot of dates with a lot of men. Only a handful of those ever progressed to "boyfriend" status. Only a handful of the boyfriends ever progressed to "sleeping together" status. Only one of those ever progressed to "husband" status, but my goodness it was worth the wait! If it's how to stop being taken advantage of...I can give a few pointers. Don't rush into physical activity just because it's a BDSM site. Most of the men I've known aren't going to commit to someone who sleeps with them within the first few dates - I know someone's going to jump on this and say "BUT I SLEPT WITH MY NOW-HUSBAND ON THE FIRST DATE" and yeah it does work out sometimes, but those sometimeses aren't the majority of times. A dominant man is still a man first, a dominant second. And since you're looking for a traditional, Christian man, he probably won't see you as long-term relationship material if you jump into the physical right away. And that's not just sex, it's play too. The biggest mistake I see is people jumping head first into play, or sex, without really getting to know the person or establishing parameters for a relationship. Women will go out with a guy, hook up on the second date, have amazing sex and play for a month...then he leaves her to be someone else's boyfriend. But in that situation, there wasn't a talk of commitment, or where things were going, or relationship goals, so even though the woman feels "taken advantage of" she was just as much an active participant. To put it another way, a guy who's only interested in sex isn't going to stick around for 2 or 3 months to wait to get it. If you want to find someone who's interested in a LTR with you, give it time. Give the relationship time to develop, and give the search process time. You know that saying "you have to kiss a lot of frogs to find your prince" - it's pretty true. Anyway, good luck :)
