For some reason, tonight I found myself thinking about a girl I used to see whenever I’d go out, quite a few years ago. She was tall, very tall, with a lithe figure and long, dark, straight hair. She was pretty. I was young and her looks combined with her height and the air she had about herself were intimidating to me.

She had a boyfriend, a very big guy. Tall, muscular and just plain bulky. He wasn’t my type at all and I remember wondering a little about them. What did she see in him? Not that he was ugly, just not my type. Older, maybe?

I haven’t seen this girl in years. I never talked to her, I don’t know her. I just saw her regularly.

With the experiences these last few years have brought me, I now think she was a Domme. Thinking back on it, the guy did give the impression that he was following her like a little puppy, despite his size. But back then, I was very naive and would have never guessed at or thought of such a thing.

I wonder if people see Boy Toy and I the way I saw her, back then? I am not as tall as she was, and Boy Toy is not as bulky as her guy, but still… compared to me he’s quite tall, big and muscular. He’s older than me, too. And he’s my Boy Toy, so perhaps to others, it looks like he’s the obedient little puppy. Who knows?

I was once told by a guy who used to see me and my girlfriend at the clubs all the time, before he knew us, that we seemed “unattainable” or “unapproachable” to him. Intimidating, even. I find that very funny. Truth is, I’m actually pretty shy. I’m a nice girl, too. Always polite (or almost always!), I like being helpful and smiling at people. Yeah, very intimidating, hmm?

So we really never do know how strangers perceive us. Not that it really matters, in the end. I’m just curious
