  1. Everyone has their breakpoint. At some point a good/service is not worth the cost.
  2. Question for providers as well as gents.

    CBJ is a deal breaker. Never had any problem with 3bj.
  3. Missed retired providers

    Jackie of Wicked Surrender.
  4. Avoiding attention at a hotel

    I call when I arrive to confirm all is well. Then I turn off the phone.
  5. Avoiding attention at a hotel

    My phone is off.
  6. Gfe

    "GFE Lite" is an oxymoron.
  7. A tough one for me

    Better safe than sorry. This has happened to me on one or two occasions, and I backed off too. But definitely try to make it up to her.
  8. Cancellation Notice

    I had an appointment today at 2pm - at noon the lady let me know she couldn't make it. No big deal - we'll just reschedule. I appreciate this consideration and will always provide the same as soon as I know I can't be there.
  9. Time?

    And I found that review to be extremely helpful. At least you know not to schedule an hour. These are the reviews I find to be most valuable in avoiding a waste of time and resources. And yes, if you book an hour you should get an hour.
  10. Asking about the Menu

    I send a polite e-mail outlining the services I prefer, and I ask if the lady believes we would be compatible. That has worked quite well for me.
  11. Total hip?

    I've had both replaced - 10 yrs ago. That was when they did them from the side. I was back at work in 4 weeks - you just have to take it slow and watch the restrictions in range of motion - I certainly never felt "as good as new", but I felt a lot better than before.
  12. What’s the first thing you notice?

    Definitely the demeanor - including a welcoming smile, hug, and kiss. Usually, these portend a very nice time.
  13. With our Brave New World, we will have to rely on others privately for their experiences. But today I received from someone who just signed up 3 hours previously a request for specific information about one of the ladies I reviewed. My question for the ladies and the gents is: would you answer? Do you think it is safe, given the current state of affairs, to provide that information to someone without any history? He said he had been thinking of seeing her "for some time", which led me to wonder why he hadn't checked previously posted information. I have no problem helping out - but I want to be careful and not put anyone in jeopardy. Thanks for your input.
  14. Questions from Newbies about the Ladies

    All good advice, gents. The three review rule seems prudent. But I didn't want to ignore the inquiry. I was new once - long ago, in a galaxy far away - so I know the difficulty in getting established. Still, my principal concern is reserved for those who known to me. Molto grazie, e buona notte.
  15. Too many bp are coming to tob

    It works both ways - there are plenty of ladies coming from BP as well with less than stellar reviews on other sites. Best to be careful on all sides.
  16. Happy April birthdays

    Happy birthday, indeed! Mine is the 27th - so a very happy to fellow Taureans as well.
  17. What does this holiday mean to you

    Redemption and rebirth.
  18. It shouldn't need to be reminded butttttt

    My wife and I were out Christmas shopping for our son, shortly after I filed for divorce. And who comes toward us? A lady I was seeing. She looked as though she was going to say hello - but I gave her a look of absolute terror and a subtle nod - and she just walked on by. Woah, that was close, and I never forgot it. Years later, I ran into another lady at a store - and I just walked on by. Some lessons you just don't forget.
  19. Contributions

    Since I don't generally see ladies without reviews, I have no problem placing the donation in plain sight. But with a lady who has no reviews, I must admit I'm a bit hesitant - and sometimes the service was not worth the donation. A lady friend I knew during my earliest days in the hobby had a regular of 5 years or so who was leaving town. He came to see her one last time. She trusted him. But when she opened the envelope after he left, she found only newspaper clippings. I encourage a lady to inspect the donation. Some do. Some don't.
  20. What is your life philosophy?

    I never forgot this line from Macbeth when I first read it as a HS junior: "It (life) is a tale told by an idiot. Full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."
  21. Okay, What Is The Deal-io?!

    I feel your pain - when ladies fail to respond to a polite introductory e-mail.
  22. years on TOB

    The older I get, the more hesitant I am to meet new ladies.
  23. How old are you guys?

    Approaching 67.
  24. Should I leave a bad review?

    Write the review - be honest and objective. I would want to know the risk to time and resources.
