Suggestions?

[~ Lea]

I am somewhat new to the Atlanta BDSM scene (from NYC originally). My question is: How do I go about meeting people in the BDSM lifestyle and possibly finding a D/s relationship? I'm aware of and attended a couple 1763 events which were fun and informative. Any ideas and/or recommendations would be most appreciated. ;)

there's TONS of lunch/dinner groups around town, where Ffolks meet in a public place and get to know each other, or have themed discussions, or different activities...

TenderDom (and His 'crew') have done an excellent job in maintaining a local event calendar .. i've got it bookmarked, for handy finding...

search, and enjoy! :)

I've been very interested in getting out to a Munch in my area as well in-order to meet some people in the community. I've never known anyone in real life who is part of the lifestyle. At-least I don't know that they are in the lifestyle. :) I haven't been to 1763 yet, but the time is coming.

I definitely have to second peach's thoughts. I'm still pretty new to the scene myself, but through munches I've met a lot of really awesome people (and I'm meeting more every week!), and it's a great low-pressure environment to just make friends and get a feel for the people in the community. It took me a few months to actually get out to a play party at 1763, but by the time I did I already knew a lot of the people there.

These days I seem to be introducing a lot of new people to the club who are eager but apprehensive because they don't personally know anyone there. So my suggestion would be to go to the munches, find someone that you feel comfortable with, and ask if they would be willing to introduce you to people at the club whenever you feel comfortable coming to one of the play parties.

As far as finding a D/s relationship, that one is a lot trickier. It can take years or just a few months to find a fulfilling D/s relationship. Speaking honestly and from my own experience, there don't seem to be a lot of "unattached" people in the scene that come out to the events, but there are some.
