that is the best piece of info you can get, especially when it comes to participating in this lifestyle for real!! also reading, as others mentioned and asking lots and lots of specific questions if you don't see an answer to a question you have. there is a BDSM 101 section full of threads right here on this site that may answer some of the question you have, and a search button to look for something you may not see right away. i first started (almost 6 years ago now)by reading the stories posted here, and depending on my reaction to the stories that gave me an idea of what i might or might not like IF i ever tried anything for real!!

expect to meet some wonderful, caring people, and expect to meet some people that may lie to you just to get what they want. sorta like vanilla relationships, only with the the kink thrown in

and as others have offered you can IM people here and get to know them or ask questions....

good luck with your journey
