Am I Too Glib?
» In Search Of
Historical context: when I started this site most of you weren’t around. And everything was strictly within a F/m context because of the relationship I was in. The response of most female tops that ran across it was: “Wow! This guy can use words, think and seems nice.” Now more of us about and I seem much less like an amazing manifestation of the unexpected.
I’m beginning to worry that rub the tops I reply to on the personals sites the wrong way. My responses are amiable, even witty. My closings very polite but not deferential (I don’t believe in being deferential o someone I don’t know). And I’ll happily give ten paragraphs in return for two sentences.
This wins me a response of: zip, nada, zero. Makes me wonder if I’m too glib.
But I do get kind notes from Wisconsin, Idaho, France, Germany and the like. Just nothing useful from here in central North Carolina.
Not that I’m going to change. Nothing is often better than the wrong thing.
And until I push my search to a more intense level it isn’t worth worrying about.

Maybe it is too hot, humid and sweaty in NC for the tops to be able to concentrate for ten paragraphs!

The weather here is more confusing than steamy. It was 82 Friday but is supposed to be only 54 today.

Personally, as a semi-seeking Top, I find well-written, articulate replies with polite (not deferential) closings to be perfect. Unfortunately, I don’t get those often. A lot more “Hello Misttress how can i pleez serve u”? Blech. I am articulate and interesting, and I expect the same. Guess I ask too much of those in Alabama, too :) Good luck, my dear.

I just use a conventionally polite:
Dear Name,
………
Best wishes, Richard
