@Stan My condolences sir. No one should have to go through that.
@ jhooker SALUTE!
My story is very similar to several others. My wife had a baby and suddenly refused sex for over 3 years. She refused to go to doctor for postpartum too. I finally found that I couldn't continue holding everything together for everyone else without my needs being covered too. Took the plunge. This was back in the Decadent City days. Before TOB. Heck, before "The Other" was just a poster on Sowet. Before RT even started Sowet. Wow, I'm old. LOL
Would I change anything? OH HELL YES! Would have started a LONG time before I did. As jhooker said in far more vivid terms, the variety is unmatched. I think that my biggest regret are the times that I DIDN'T pull the trigger. Courtney, Tanya, Kelly38DD, Britni, Misti, etc, etc...
Otherwise, I would have been more of a "regular" to some of the ladies. I have become an UTR kind of guy, but there was a time way back when where I was something of a "well-known hobbyist" with a different handle. There was a girl named Candy (Sweetnice28) that I had as close as a relationship as possible. I saw her every year on my birthday. Exchanged gifts, etc. Last I heard, she had moved to Vegas. There was a girl named Carla, sister of Trina. I still miss both of them. My kids still have presents that Carla gave them when they were born even though she had never met them.
