I saw someone else do it and thought it was a great idea to find exactly what I'm looking for.  I've found that one special provider but she's almost 2 hours away in RI.  She needs to move.  

If you fit the bill (doesn't have to be an EXACT match) I'd love to hear from you and get together.  Here's what I'm looking for:

Someone to see once or twice a month.
Based in CT (New Haven to Hartford and Fairfield County).
Caucasian.
Slim to medium build.
Cute face.
Non smoker (not a deal breaker).
Good conversationalist (sports, politics, movies, etc.).
Excellent kisser (very important).
Be between 25-40.
Someone who can appreciate and look forward to our time together.  In other words, I don't want to feel like you're there ONLY because of the consideration. Do you love what you do, or do it because you have to?
Someone with whom I'd love to spend time with outside of hobby (would never do so as to keep the professional boundaries in place).

If you're into 5'11" 205 lb educated professional white guys who fits the bill, I'd love to get together and see if we connect.  Being new to this, it's sometimes difficult and awkward going into these dates not knowing much about the other person.  As an added bonus, I shower prior to every date (that's for you Lass). Everyone has their personal preferences, and I thought this was a great way to learn a LITTLE BIT about the other prior to meeting

END OF MESSAGE

I can live with that.  Like I said, I'm a newbie.  Just stumbled upon the hobby in Feb.  I've only seen 4 providers and the review thing.....that's not my cup of tea.  If not having reviews kills my credibility on this board than so be it.  

Honest question though (I'm not being a smartass)......why would me having no reviews prevent others from responding?  If someone fits the bill, they respond, we connect, I get verified, and life is good.  Not sure why that matters?

Because your reviews tell other providers that you have seen others and are a lot more likely to be legit. If, for some unknown reason, you don't want to do an reviews, you could sign up for P411. They verify you. As you see providers, no review necessary, but they will give you an "OK" on P411. That way providers know that you are OK to see. It's all about mutual trust.. I won't see a girl if she doesn't have any reviews so it works both ways..

I have a fair amount of reviews.  However,  there are probably the same amount of  gents  that prefer to keep their sex life very private and don't review me.  That being  said if  he can provide references and those gals can be verified I would  see him.  Though I do like p411 just because it makes the entire process so much easier.  Anyway,  that's just my opinion.

Thanks for the info.  Very helpful.  I've never heard about the "whitelist".  I've never even mentioned that I had a TER handle to any of the providers I've seen.  

Still finding my way around this hobby.  Thanks for the advice.

p411 datecheck whitelisting and provider refs I hold with value when checking out a client
many of my clients are not Ter members or they dont want to write reviews. Its all good

The man said he had found the perfect provider in RI so he may have a reference from a well reviewed provider.

Secondly I wouldn't be suggesting anyone use p411 as they have been busting clients and providers for years.  You may want to google "The Honest Courtesans" "something in  the milk" to learn about this

the only benefit for you to write reviews other than two weeks of free VIP membership is that it gives a list of providers you have visited as an alternative method of providing provider verification.

.....alias MAYBE but your lack of TER reviews no. I don't know (yet) if a guy might have written some elsewhere. Even if he hasn't written any that hardly means he can't be screened.  All the best to you.
