Over at FetLife there are two big D/g discussion groups, "Daddy Dominants" & "Daddy Doms & babygirls". There are four smaller D/g focused groups, that I sometimes read but don't participate in. There is also a smattering of ageplay groups, but they seem to be filled with mostly male AB's which I don't really have a lot of interest in.
The types of D/g relationships you read about on the boards really vary, but I've met some cool people both D's an g's that I connect with.
For some reason, on FetLife specifically the D/g groups attract many women who identify as "broken & needy". They seek out D/g because they think it's softer and gentler, etc. I don't see D/g like that but it's a pervasive attitude. Thus, you see many Daddy's pandering to that attitude, kind of coming off as 'saviors' and such. Not every Daddy over there is like that, but the healthy happy people don't post as much as the unhappy people do, so the groups sometimes seem like a bunch of miserable people.
Still, there are lots of Daddy's , and I met a really nice Daddy with a little girl and it turns out they live next door to us. They're super involved in the SF scene, and we all get along really well, so there definitely are some cool people on FetLife. I would recommend it highly.
I'm also active over on Collarme.com but that's more of a kink focused site. There are personals though and if you don't mind wading through tons of email everyday, there are plenty of dominant men, and many who identify as Daddy's. Collarme is full of idiots, so you kind of have to be patient.
Collarme might be a good place to look for munches or groups, as there are many people from the UK. I don't know if your into the kink or fetish community, but it's a great way to meet people and figure out if they are a wanker.
You seem like a very smart lady, so I wish you luck! If you set up a profile on FL let me know and I will send you my FL username. There are actually quite a few people from here, that have profiles over there too!
