the thrill of the hunt and the obvious.

You crack a nut for one thing!

Audie

well the obvious is sex with young women who wouldn't give me a second glance if I wasn't  a client.

But the biggest thing I have gotten is a group of friends, both hobbyists and providers who I socialize with, meet for luncheons and dinners, have parties and go places just like my other friends, except these friends know my dirty little secret so I can actually be more of myself... a horny old freak!

As for the Hunting part, I'd have to disagree. Part of hunting is not just bagging whatever is in your scope at the moment but selecting a prized trophey that you can gaze upon even if it's just in your memory and recall all the subtle details of the initial contact and the ensuing struggle. I have memories from 25+ years ago until now of certain ladies and my times spent with them.

I decided awhile back(I'm 33) that I didn't want a girlfriend or a wife. There's way to much variety in life to be tied down to just 1 woman. This way, I have my bachelor freedoms, and can meet any woman I want, nsa.

I have to say the hunt- prefer mp's and new (if reviewed) providers and a way to kill time when I travel.  Places like TJ too!  Also some guilt, worry about catching things and drained funds...

I'm not married so I can't comment on the effects on a marriage, but I get a lot more out of the hooby than the obvious physical ones. The emotional connection is just as important, if not more so for me. The conversation, interaction, and emotional touching goes hand in hand with the physical touching. I have fun for the time I am with a lady, and what ever might be going on in my life is pushed to the back. Call it an escape, if you like.

I think we live in a time where everything seems to be complicated, and sometimes we just need to have fun. As long as you're not hurting someone having a little fun is ok, and sometimes we need to be reminded of this.
