Hi everyone

I am in a bit of a pickle met this new Dom and we are in the stages of getting to know each other our likes dislikes needs and wants kinks etc, he has recently told me he is not looking for love, nor a 24hr relationship. I am in a bit of a daze about that comment as I can be a very attached person. I am just baffled is this a norm? I am new to BDSM, and I really would appreciate some constructive feedback.
