Wow. Long thread. I confess to not reading from start to finish and I have been out of the game for a long time. However, I sense an aversion to SP's wanting to text. My MO in the past was always to text first and then phone if she seemed receptive. Was I really that obtuse? I always felt texting was minimally intrusive and they could reply at their leisure. If there were no answer at all, no harm no foul. If they replied, communication could proceed. I actually thought my approach was the most respectful and it seemed to work. Was I delusional or did I just luck out on receptive ladies?

What turns a ho-hum date into a great date? Attitude, obviously...and respect. However, is there something else we gentlemen can do that propels us to the top of your favorite list?

Been awhile and it appears the landscape has changed. Sophia has apparently moved on. She was a good one....real as it gets.

2nd dose 3 weeks ago. Still living like a hermit, though!

Bingo. My business went through an expansion that went south in a hurry and I was forced to put 15-18 hour days in on my feet walking and operating equipment. The business was saved and, for some reason, my back has never been better than in the last 18 months of the last 10 years. Excercise and core strenght are key. Before the forced workouts, my back would go out every time I laid down.

I feel for you. There are some marvelous people on here, but there is also the odd deceptive one. I got taken by a deceptive one. Nobody to blame but myself. Like you, I should maybe have asked others. Likely wouldn't have listened anyways. Having said that, the majority here are straight up good folks. However, be very careful when approaching the line.

Rule #1...don't be a dick. Nice guys don't always finish last.

I'm from out of town, but the Wedgewood and my companion treated me well.

First time back in awhile and my first thought is.........fuck, I'm glad I wasn't drunk and opened this thread. Prices in this biz are all over the place. I have paid 180-300 per hour and have regretted not a one encounter.Would I go higher? Actually, I would go higher before I'd go lower. Unless a lady is just getting into the business and looking to build clientele, there's a chance for a deal on an undiscovered gem, but it's a crap shoot. For the record, my most memorable encounter was my most expensive one...........and I repeated, and will again. Tried and true works for me. Vegas would chew me up and spit me out. Now.......back to the rum and the blizzard in NS.

Beer and here. Life ain't all bad.

I started out with.....no reference. If you're a normal human being, the ladies on here will soon pick up on that fact and will find a way to accommodate you. Talk to them without wasting their time and you'll be okay.

Awesome Freudian slip!

More building supplies. New construction means cost over runs that never seem to abate.
