that you believe would make a good "fit" for you, and one that screens via personal info and not necessarily references from another provider.  While many providers say they want a referral, if you are new, they may take that into consideration if you are PATIENT and give them other info they may ask for... trust here is a two way affair.

At the begining no one has a reference.  There are two ways
1.  find a provider willing to see you without references
2. join datecheck,411 preferred,or Room Service 2000.  They will reference check you and then you can see one of their listed providers.

I used the second method.  After you have one reference then it gets easier.

I got started by meeting her in a hotel bar when she was satified I wasn't LE we went up to my room. Had to pay her for the time in the bar but it was well worth it

Agreed, it is very do-able.
I got verified with RS2K before I ever sent my first e-mail to a lady.  During the initial contact (with a few WELL reviewed ladies) I provided my RS2K info, as well as a reasonable amount of verifiable personal information, and invited a discreet call at work.  Some did call, some didn't, but every lady I contacted responded with an invitation to meet me...

My first call was rejected because I didn't have any references. I told her I was a VIP on TER, I gave her my work number, but because I was off that day she still rejected me. I called her again and gave more info, how I'd been on television and she was amazed that this was my first time with a provider. I finally gave up and called another provider and made an 11:30am appt.  For my first time is was nice... Man!! either I am large or she put an extra small condom on me... it hurt!!! and I couldn't feel a thing. Haven't had my second provider yet.. We'll see what happens next time. However, if I am able to schedule with that first provider I called and it is boring....  I will be in tears!!!!  hehehehehe
