We thought episode 83 would be a discussion about how to handle long distance D/s relationships, but when we realized we spent nearly an hour on communication and figuring out if someone is a good fit for you, it became a two-part episode. We can’t promise we won’t need a third part, though.

In this episode:

* Sign up for 30 Days of D/s!

* This episode was inspired by a great discussion on the forum about long distance relationships.

* The first step is to decide if this person is a good fit for you.

* Develop “trust issues” if you don’t have them already to be more skeptical. 

* Earn the other person’s trust.

* Slow down and take your time.

* Get to know each other as people and friends. Focus a little less on the kink.

* Transition into the D/s after you’ve gotten to know each other.

* Become friends first

* The first person you meet might not be the one who’s good for you.
