The girls I see quickly forget all others that have cum before me lol (E)

EOM

I find the whole hobby/business fascinating so I'm always up for escort stories. They're usually more interesting than what I hear at the dinner table or watering hole.

As far as # of reviews I don't really have a preference. A long list of 9,10s (performance) does have a certain appeal... but so does a short list of 9,10s. A longer list of consistent high scores does tend to indicate less possibility of drama and other issues, but I'd visit 3-8s before I visit 20-7s. It's mostly about the performance score and the actual review regarding good attitude, along with specific acts, kissin' and bbbj in my case. Indicate all that and I'm up for the adventure regardless of the number of reviews.

For me, I like hearing all the stories, good or bad, but I'd venture to say that most guys here want their ego stroked. Just tell him how he's nothing like the awful, disgusting jerk you had the misfortune to encounter last week. Rinse and repeat.  

As for reviews, at this point I just scan to confirm legitimacy and menu. I couldn't give two shits about the other "juicy" details. Sadly, if you search the boards, there are plenty of fellas who have a hard time grasping the fact that you are and have fucked other men.

It's not so much that I'm not a nosy bastard, but rather that I'd be worried about what you'll say about me to the next guy.

they mostly tell me about how fat they are,bald headed,toupees they wear on head, and most of all size of their dicks!

They were virgins when we met, so I was the first!!!!!! LOL!!!!
And best!!!!!??

I don't mind reality, but that doesn't mean I want to be hit with it in the head when I'm in the middle of a fantasy.
I can't quite figure out why I would possibly want to hear about your experience with somebody else.  It's sort of (but obviously not entirely) like the father of a 25 year old woman who knows his daughter has had sex with several men but doesn't want to hear about any of it.  And the number of reviews does not matter to me nor does the fact that the actual number of dates is obviously more than the number of reviews.   But I can't say I think about any of that during my time, nor do I see the need to be reminded at that moment

her clients take her on vacations to Hawaii, or buy her a new car, or spend the whole weekend on a date.

no. not more exciting. I don't care about many reviews. 90% of the time once  I have seen her I don't read her reviews anymore.  

like I've said before,  I assume she doesnt want to talk about it. so, I don't. I would never bring it up.

humorous stories (or gross stories, depending upon the mood/vibe) it never bothers me, can be fun, and is usually good for a few laughs.

It's never happened with me, but I'd probably turn off like a light switch at any intimate comparisons or mentions of how great someone else is. I think 99+% of women already get that, so sorry if I'm stating the obvious here.

As for reviews? I don't really care and certainly don't judge a woman based upon how many men she has seen. It means nothing positive or negative to me. I choose to see someone for my own reasons, in my own way, and if we hit it off - then all is good. I live in the moment on a date as a means to enjoy it (and her company) most fully. Past and future are not something I think about at all

this crazy business. I like to talk about the wildest and favorite things we have both done in the Hobby.

I like a well reviewed lady- and how many guys she has seen never crosses my mind. Now if she says goodbye with your the worst of all the men I have seen-that might not be good

If the banter feels sincerely friendly, the 'war stories' can be fun, especially if shared with a sense of humor.  If it comes off as bitching or whining, or makes it sound like she just doesn't like men, then its obviously a big turn-off, especially on a new encounter.

So many reviews are BS or the client reviewing themselves that its hard to base too much on them.  I guess there's a 'sweet spot' for quantity - too few well written ones are a caution flag while too many in rapid succession either create a high-volume impression or make me suspicious of manipulation.

There's an undertone to both those questions.  If you're too concerned about what any provider, new or ATF, is doing with other clients then you're coming at this from the wrong angle.  You'll at best be second-guessing whether you're getting the same service for the same price and at worst be setting yourself up to be emotionaly crushed.

I acyually like to talk about the biz a bit but I usually look for the ladies with 10 to 30? reviews.  When I look down and see they are on page 20 no thanks. They may be good but IMO probably burned out. Not always but possible. Been burned a lot more from MILF's than the 25 to 35 range.

How did I miss you on my recent trip to Sin City?  

As for your questions...

It would bother me if you were to talk about others while we were together... I much prefer our discussion to be about us.

The number of reviews is immaterial to me... I've seen gals with as few as one and others with hundreds of reviews.  The number never enters my mind while we are together.  I don't think or worry about who you've been with before or after.  

One other thing... I would prefer not to be called a "hobbyist".  John, trick, gentleman caller, client, but please not a "hobbyist".

Getting good voice.....

can be a lot of fun BCD.  Spices up a good BJ/HJ or even just a little foolin' around.  I love it.  Part of that can involve describing some kinky stuff she's done in the past with clients or friends.  It doesn't matter to me whether its true or not - it's just good entertainment.  And the point is to be entertained.  If I just want my rocks off - I can do that self service.    

With regards to numbers of reviews - really a positive for me.  Establishes a comfort level that the provider is a pro.  When I want professional services of ANY kind (doctor, lawyer, provider) - I want someone who is really good at it.  The only way you get to be good at it is to do it.  Lots and lots of good reviews are a good thing.

I don't really think about it in terms of who she saw or who she's going to see.   Just like I don't think about who my lawyer saw an hour ago....or is going to see an hour from now.

I don't mind a few tid bits about some odd occurances and I've picked up some good advice from some ladies about this hobby. It does get distracting and ruins the mood, however, with too much details about past encounters. I'd prefer the discussion, if any, be about our time together and how we can make it better for each of us. I know there's others but don't like to have it thrown in my face. It's a turn off for me and generally I don't repeat with those providers. I know it's selfish but I'm there to enjoy her company and have some fun - not hear the life story. Some is good for context but there is a line.

As far as number of reviews, like others have said, I don't hold much stock by them for a lot of details just to get a feel for how a session might go.  

Bottom line, focus on me and I'll focus on you and we should have a pleasant time together for the short time we have. Is that too much to ask?

when i'm with a woman, I want it to just be me and her in the moment. I've had providers tell me -- without prompting!-- how big a prior guy's endowment was (as thick as a coke can) or how many times the last guy came in two hours (four). That kind of kills the mood for me.  
as for # of reviews, that's less of a big deal, although I somewhat prefer fewer.
bottom line, I know a provider sees other guys, but that's not what i want on my mind when i am spending intimate time with her.

..as long as they are just that - war stories - not sob stories.

it's a femwood killer

As far as reviews go - I prefer a provider with at least 5 reviews but no more than 10. I try to NEVER think about who she's been with - either that day or that year!

If one of my regulars does it, it doesn't bother me. It's kind of fun to hear some of the stories. I have one that likes to swap stories with me about her clients and my other providers. No names mentioned, just (This one guy or This one Provider). Of course this is usually at the end or after a session when we're just talking and hanging out.

contain information to make me feel like I will have a great time.

I could care less about one provider with 50 reviews as compared to a provider with 25 reviews or 100 reviews.   As long as I am treated as king for my hour or two, that is what matters.

Just seems tacky. If asked I deflect as I don't want to discuss it anyway.

Hearing about a lady’s other experiences gives me a better feel for her, for her likes and dislikes. Landmines. What’ll set her off or make her shut down. And what’ll make her relax. It's also entertaining.

I prefer ladies who are low profile, but I try not to get thrown by the number of reviews if there’s something about the lady I like. One of my favorites has a ton of reviews, but I was so intrigued by her approach (sensual and literate, but not fake or high-minded, surprisingly grounded), there was no way I was going to let that keep me from seeing her. And I’m glad I didn’t.

I just try to remind myself that a lot of reviews don’t necessarily mean a lady’s high volume or a review hustler. It could just mean she attracts guys who are more expressive about this life. Or she’s just blowing people’s minds on the regular

Their IRL boyfriends!  Especially with those same providers with whom I repeat frequently.

Typical caveats apply here--this is all just about sex, not about "real" relationships, etc.

Nevertheless, part of what I'm paying for is the GFE.  How many times do you take a civvie girl out for a date and listen to her talk (and when I say talk, that generally means "moan and bitch about him--a lot) about her boyfriend?

For that amount of time we've blocked out for one another, I am the boyfriend!  The less I have to know/hear about "him" the better I like it (especially because most of those boyfriends treat these girls like shit, and I can't imagine why the girls waste their time with these d-bags).

The talk about other clients can be kind of amusing or titillating, Yeah--but that's just shop talk.  When the IRL BFs start entering the discussion, I'd really rather not hear about it.

I love it when my ATF tells me stories about the weirdos.

Thanks for the feedback!

I appreciate everyone throwing in their 2 cents! I personally don't talk about other experiences because I feel it might or would kill the mood. Especially on a GFE date.  I am a pretty low volume provider but I always wonder what made someone choose me over another and hope the chemistry while on a date is good. Even though I don't have a ton of reviews I still feel that I can and will make the date a memorable date. It's funny because some look at and read reviews and make their choice based on said reviews and, some don't read them at all and could care less. I know many of you say a lot of girls have fake reviews so that is partly why you don't take much stock in them. I get get that. I personally have all real reviews and don't mind the fact they aren't a high number. I respect all the hard working ladies in this crazy world we are in and love to read their reviews as well to get an insight on how things work for them. It's all just very intersting to me!  

Thanks!

I'm very interested in the war stories, but haven't had the nerve to probe too much. I tend to be overly polite and worry about offending. One provider asked me if I'd called a lot of girls before settling on her, and I got flustered and said no, she was my first choice. She burst out laughing and said she knew she wasn't my only girl. I reacted like I would IRL, and didn't want to hurt her feelings.  

So yes, I'm interested in tales of the life and business, because I am intensely curious about the girls I am with but don't really know how to ask.

As to reviews, I rely on them. I have never TOFTT although I did come close. The reviews tell me a girl is legit, what kinds of things she does and likes, how well a session went, and other clues I can use to decide whether we'll be a good fit. There have been a few that I thought looked great from their profiles and ads, that the reviews saved me from wasting my time and money with.

I always review every girl I see (which hasn't been many as you'll be able to tell) because I do think the reviews is what makes communities like this work.

Yes but....

I have no problem with the stories about other john etc. but lately my ATF has constantly been telling me about her fiancé and that he doesn't have a job and she buys him everything. She is GFE, but last time I checked my girlfriend didn't tell me about her fiancé. Damn I enjoy her company. Of course that is the beauty of this game. I do believe I may have found a new regular ho

Also, she will not be talking for very long because it's hard to do that when.....

I've asked to hear their weird stories.

My regular provider likes to tell me her stories while we cuddle in bed after the main event, and I enjoy hearing them.  Although she does seem to always tell me the ones that make for a good laugh, and make me feel even better about myself compared to those guys.  Also we were both fans of the TV show "Secret diary of a call girl" when it was on.  If you haven't seen it you need to, it's great, it's centered around the star of the show telling all about her experiences.

Then again, I know I am one of her favorite clients, which doesn't surprise me because I treat her respectfully and tip her 20% at the end of each date after having paid her standard rate.  But I'm sure a story about a client who she likes more than me would rub me the wrong way.  So I can understand how some people would not feel the way I do.

As for reviews, the more highly rated reviews the better.  I found my regular provider based on her consistently great reviews.
