I'm always curious to know how active my fellow hobbyists are and share information. Especially in the over 60 age group. I'd like to know not only how busy you've been, but how do you feel about it and about your level of activity? Do you resolve to be more active in the New Year? Less? About the same? I'll start.
Looking back, 2015 stacks up as a record breaking year for me. A personal best. Here's my stats: 36 dates with 13 different women which included 10 who were brand new to me, 3 were established friends. 15 of those dates were with one woman, my ATF SB. I also had lots of sex with my wife. Well over $10,000 cash was spent on the ladies, not counting gifts other than cash, travel expenses, gas (a big deal with the RV), hotels, dinner and bar tabs, etc. So, not a hobby for the faint of heart or wallet! I seriously doubt I am going to keep up this pace in 2016. I kinda went overboard last year. And my affair with my ATF SB continues to deepen and provide such pleasure and satisfaction that I hardly feel motivated for any new women. I do plan to keep visiting a few favorite others as well. And knowing myself, I'll never quit trolling TER and elsewhere for that new exciting perfect playmate who's always there just over the horizon.Here's wishing you all a very happy, healthy, horny and prosperous New Year!
I'm heading the other direction. This year I saw fewer ladies than I have since 2005. 27 dates might sound like a decent year, but only 12 of those sessions were full on gfe. I saw 4 new ladies, and 5 established friends. For the first time in several years, I also had 2 no shows from highly rated ladies. I also had 3 wonderful atfs retire.
Because of my highly strenuous real life activities I'm finding that I've been desiring regular massages lately. The 2 no shows, and 3 retirements have played into this as well. When available, I have an old fbsm friend who accommodates this wish. I saw her 15 times, and have been happy with this new direction. That's not to say I'm completely ruling out the gfe, but it's something that will have to fall right into my lap, so to speak. I won't be in pursuit mode like during the last ten years.
And for my 1040 form, my hobby pursuits left me 5k lighter in the wallet. We'll see what 2016 brings.
Absolutely! You want to ensure that you get a tax credit for those no shows.
Only one on the fly; cannot always think with the big head 
Four total, three reviews. One was a unique experience and one was a long sought new friend.
A good year in my book.
Never had more fun in my life at 70 yrs. a widower. 7 of the nicest and most beautiful ladies from 22 yrs. to 55 yrs. . I love and respect them all. 13 trips to the alter lol. 31 hrs. of romance and conversation. $ 5350 with another $ 1000 in gifts . Traveled at least 2050 miles . Have 3 more 2 hr. trips to the alter scheduled . 2 are at a super bowl party in Las Vegas to start the year out right. My son thinks I'm on a dating site chasing women. Lol.
...how many times you've hobbied in a year, you haven't hobbied enough.
I try for a least one lady per week but missed about 8 weeks due to work and other distractions last year. I saw 24 new ladies last year that I can easily count. I will not estimate or guess the money spent for a variety of reasons but it is no doubt too much. My big head is fiscally conservative but my little head just doesn't give a damn
