I feel like the true dom/sub relationship is something I have to explore with someone I know. I don't know anyone online that well yet. I like to be in control of myself, whether that means I am directing my actions, or have chosen someone capable and responsible enough to do so for me. I have been told I seem dominant, but I actually enjoy and prefer to hand over control to someone capable, intelligent, and firm. I can control others, but I hate it and it makes me respect them less.
So, I guess independent sub in real life, neutral on cam. I would be willing to power play with someone online only if we had the right kind of relationship.
