Has anyone met up with a stranger for TUG's?

Postby SephySJ » Thu Oct 11, 2012 1:42 pm

I've recently arranged to meet up with a person on this site for a TUG session, and I was just wondering if anyone else has ever gotten together with anyone to do the same, either from this site or elsewhere on the Internet?

I guess I was just curious as to whether any of you guys has managed to arrange something with a stranger before, and would love to hear any stories you may have to tell.

I am very much looking forward to this meeting because it has been way too long since I was last tied up. I'm aware of the potential danger attributed to meeting a stranger off of the internet and engaging in something like bondage, but I'm certain I can trust him, and he me.

So yeah, your thoughts and personal experiences are all welcome.

I've done it a couple of times. Just remember, always see and talk to someone before ever meeting them (anyone who says they can't get on a webcam is full of shit). Meet at a public place first. Get REAL names (and verify) and you should be fine. My experiences have been awesome and I have become friends with the people I have met.

I suggest an ice-breaker as well. I've done bowling and video games before doing any tying. It helps get rid of a bit of the nervousness.

Keep to the well-know security rules (like having someone cover you etc.) and the risk is managable (keep in mind- some remaining risk will be there).

Personall, I have met hundreds of people from the internet from bondage-orientated sites. I have tied up some of them; one, I have married (and another was my mariage witness). So yes, its possible to find nice people & friends there.

Thanks for your stories and your advice, rest assured we've talked for a fair while and know we can trust each other. I hope to meet many new people in a similar fashion, though I'm not quite sure about such a thing ending in marriage (congratulations on that by the way).

Ah thanks for your interest, but you know what? The guy bailed on me last minute, no explanation given. A waste of money and time, but he hasn't gotten back to me as to the reasons why he cancelled. I know he still visits the site. I don't mind if he has a good excuse, but his avoiding me would probably indicate that he lost his nerve. I can't really blame him if that's the case; meeting a stranger for TUGs has associated risks, but from what he told me he was looking forward to it, as was I. Shame really.

I have met guys from online a few times and it's been safe. You just gotta undergo the usual precautions. You know: Meet in a public place, make sure they're genuine.

I'm even meeting up with someone from this board tomorrow :D
