Newbie - FAQ
Glad it worked out so well. Continue to do your homework, and it will be more of the same.
Die Broke right? Love ya mrfisher, telling it how it is my friend 
Done!
Upon further review..........
I don't think I was surprised by anything 'cause I've read almost every FAQ for Newbies and the general discussion. I was terribly nervous and that initially impeded some of my anatomy's functionality and that was a bit disconcerting. It was weird getting au natural with another woman after 20 some years but I adjusted quickly, I loved doing things I haven't done in a long time. For the pre-hobbiest this is what I did:
1. homework, homework, homework
2. communicated to make sure of time and place.
3. showed up on time
4. When she opens the door, walked in asap
5. Presented a small gift
6. envelope on the table
7. took a brief shower to wash off the work day's grime, brushed teeth
8. be myself (the GFE for me!)
9. I talk a lot so keeping up a conversation is never a problem.
10. Did not take things too seriously the word of the day is: FUN
11. In this case left a tip for the great time in the form of a Starbucks coffee card. I checked before hand to make sure she loves coffee.
12. Basked in the afterglow and was almost totally useless at work the next day....lol
Oh Lord what have I gotten myself into? I so want to do this again!
Peace!
After my first time, I was high-fiveing the parking meters on the way back home!
When can you do this again? When you afford to, and not have problems with your personal life. The hobby is what you make of it...can be good or bad. Control it on your terms...it's a good fire. Let it get out of control...fire is your worst enemy. There will be times where this may get out of contol, but put a stop to it when it does. If that's possible...
Keep it real, dude!
