Moving to London has opened me up to so many new new and amazing experiences and I have finally been able to explore my interest and desire for a relationship with a kink dynamic to it but there have been many issues I have had to navigate and the main one is staying anonymous online until I meet Read more…someone and trust them enough to send my picture.
I am a secondary school teacher in a massive and very conservative school. I never want to put myself in a position where I will have my reputation called into question just because people don't understand the lifestyle. My solution is that I stay anonymous to protect myself until I have really connected with someone. My problem is that with so many fake accounts, people who are just playing and don't commit to actually being present on these sites, I am worried that my lack of pictures will imply I am one of them and impact my ability to connect with potential partners.
Attending events in person is completely different and it is great to get to know people that way, but sometimes the online route opens up more possibilities.
Has anyone experienced this before and have any suggestions of how to deal with it?
