I've been fooled before, too. I've run into one person that said he was a woman, and when I tried to take him under like he asked, he didn't cooperate. I took a glance at his post history, where he said he was a man in an earlier post I missed, and I realized I had been had, though I've no idea why the person did that.

There've been times where I hear exactly what a person wants, bring them the effects they want, and then we promise to meet again, at another time, and I never hear from them again. There've been three times where I've found someone that seemed to have been in a bad situation, and all times I've gotten them out of it. The first time, I never heard from them again after that night of hours of hypnotism and checking. The second was my friend before hand, online, at least, and now doesn't even believe the event happened, and has left herself vulnerable to the same things, hypnosis-wise. The third, luckily, and for once, is still talking to me, happy as can be that they found out what happened.

It's taken patience, but I've made a few friends. As things have gone, it's hard to find someone that isn't entirely out there for their own pleasure, and there's some that say they want to lose control, and at the hint of loss, they scatter, but every once in a while, I find a gem. It's just sad when I lose that gem.

One person I worked with for about 40 days, working with them on a safe and slow personality change they had wanted. Then, one day, I never heard from them again. It really tore me up, because I really thought this person was a friend. They didn't even say they were done talking to me.

However, it's all been worth it so far, to me. The positives far outweigh the negatives.

When I first found this site i was a dabbler. But now, after I've tried my hand at some stuff, I'm not sure.
I have a friend who does hypnofiles, and she assures me that IM hypno isn't real, and most times I agree. I've had my share of fakes; heck, sometimes I think all I'm doing is rp, which isn't so bad, but if they just wanted cyber/rp, then they shouldn't make me waste my time "earning their trust" and "putting them under".

My stuff's been mostly IM; I do a quick induction, and then try some triggers after getting some information. Then i bring them back up, and try out the triggers. Sometimes I'm amazed at how bad an actor someone can be, and sometimes I'm worried I'm playing with fire.

And then there are the sessions where everything goes great, and then they drop outa site. I know some of those are just people who needed to feed their fetish, and now that they are finished, they no longer need me.
I did hve one that worried me: a young man still living at home, wanting to be a girl; I gave him some instructions, but I worried after I didn't hear back from him. He seemed to love the idea that I could alter his perceptions like that, and we had talked about making him think he was a model that I found some pictures of, so I didn't think that he was unsatisfied.
Of course, barring the idea that he just got tired (who could get tired of me?), then the possibility that he followed a few suggestions too closely comes into play. And that could be a kettle of fish, if you catch my drift.

I know, a little rambly, but I get what you all are saying.

Can you ever really trust someone that you only have a text based relationship with?



I believe most text based relationships are just really long roleplays. The "hypnotist" gets to romance about mind control and the "subject" gets to live out their fantasies under the guise that it isn't their actual will, that they are being forced to behave a certain way.


But you know, Erickson told Bandit and Swindler that You are not a therapist, you are a pretender. But you just keep pretending and eventually the subjects will pretend until they forget they are pretending, until they pretend for their whole life. Just don't you forget.

Well.... I would have to completely disagree with you there. My current real life relationship experiences have nothing to do with past environmental learning. Our relationships are defined by our own ideas of the meaning of love, and I assume most long term relationships invoke this kinship in most people. True lovers do not define themselves by how they are perceived and they do not shape themselves to please outsiders. They are far to involved in each other to cater to what their friends and family define a relationship as.


A text based "relationship" on the other hand will not tell you what a person is like, only what they want you to think of them. No ulterior motives are truly understood over such a confining, barrier ridden system of communication. You do not see them laugh. You do not see what their eyes would be telling you. You do not see any of the mannerisms that make up such a large part of communication with others. You don't really know anything about the person that they aren't explicitly telling you, and even then you can't truly believe any of it. But I think that's what text based relationships are for. A fantasy outlet, hidden away from the person's actual real life experiences.


The two "relationships" are entirely different in my opinion.
