I said all of this just to say that the fake ones are easy to spot if you look closely enough. The control aspect is more important to them than the relationship aspect. The fake ones want you under their thumb, and they wanna keep you there as long as possible. And they make it extremely difficult for you to get out. They'll play with the emotions of their sub to get them to stay and convince them that it's all love and such, and then fall right back into the same abusive, controlling pattern.
I've encountered this before, and it was my first relationship as a sub. It's extremely hard to get out of the situation, like Slippery said. It also take a lot of time afterwards (at least it did for me) to get over what happened and want to try again.
That being said, finding a real Dom is easy when you know how to separate them from the fakes. I found a real one sitting right under my nose (albeit in a completely different country) that is showing me how night and day different a fake and a real Dom are. It's not about control. They don't want to control you like you're a remote control to a tv or something; it's about you wanting to give them that complete surrender because you can trust them not to abuse that trust and hurt you in any way that you don't want.
