is you don't pay them for sex any more, but also they take your cash or credit card when they go to the mall.  

Another way is, when you go to see them for some fun, they say, "Oh Cooper, I'm sorry sweetie but I'm really tired/have a headache/gotta watch my favorite show/etc."

I treat all providers with love and respect also. And I love my ATF as much as I could love a friend. But none is my SO. Many providers I know, including my ATF, have SOs. I think there's a special place in hell reserved for people who do anything to intentionally break up a good committed relationship.

after your third session, that she has your whole life planned out together. At that point, because the sessions are so hot, it's time to talk some sense into her..........or run for the hills Coop.

Being able to say you keep in contact with all your lady friends really is an exception and most men would not be able to say that or care not to be in such a position.  

I have many gentlemen I keep in contact with from over the years who either have moved away or unable to hobby any more. So many men from the old days didn't have options for variety as the availability of GFE type of ladies was slim. Now there are so many to choose from.

I'd like to hear what attributes you gentleman come up with for us being a " SO ".

I use to say having a key to a man's front door ..... I have 3 such keys now but all the gentlemen are over 80

I'd have to say I have had a loving relationship with every provider who I've visited regularly.  But they come and go, many were just one timers, etc.  I've been hobbying 14 years, so, too many to remember by now.  But the special ones, those I've had loving relationships with, I'll never forget.  No chance any will become my SO since I've got an awesome wife at home.  Just had our 44th anniversary.

A wife not a SO

I think that most of the suggestions equate a SO to a cynical version of a wife. Funny but not my idea of a SO. My idea of a SO is a loving commitment with out marriage
