I think it all depends on the Domme and the sub and how they go about. One Domme I saw made it clear from the get go she didn’t want to know anything about my personal life nor was she going to share hers either. I was fine with that and could understand why. Other Dommes were different one was having car problems so I helped her out a ride and money. I don’t consider that I need to be friends with a Domme to make it work.
