My entire family lives fifteen minutes away and that is the problem

- Looking for
- somebody on the far side of the metro, honestly, for safety
- Experience
- Two years, nothing in person, a great deal of thinking about it.
- Around
- the mid-cities, Dallas
Parents, two aunts, four cousins, my brother and his wife, and the family business where I have worked since I was nineteen. All of them inside a fifteen minute drive of where I sleep. I love them. It is also a net.
Twenty five, submissive, out in the mid-cities. Two years of knowing this about myself, no experience whatsoever in a room with another person, and a level of caution that some people are going to find excessive and which I am not going to defend.
What it means practically is that I would rather meet somebody who lives a long way across the metro, because the odds of walking into someone I am related to drop with every mile. I know that is the opposite of what everybody else on this board wants. I am offering to do the driving.
I cannot host. I will not be hosted anywhere near where I live. My phone is not private in the way other people's phones are private, because half my family are in it constantly. What I want is to start very slowly with somebody experienced and patient. Conversation for a long time first. Then somewhere public. I am not in any hurry at all and I would be suspicious of anybody who was.
Not looking for anyone who will find the family thing charming or use it as material. Not looking to be somebody's introduction to how sheltered a person can be at my age. I know exactly how sheltered I am. I am doing something about it.
