I am now getting so I am not scheduling anything because of traffic... I live on the South Shore.. I have had more than one return trip of 3 hours from the Waltham area and I had one 4+ return trip..  
Anyone else getting the same way?  
Traffic is really awful right about now and on a Friday afternoon? impossible..  

Really, I have scheduled trysts in Berkshire County so I'm not afraid to drive . but now.. it's something I really consider.. I'm embarrassed to admit it.

No idea what you mean by that comment.. Known as someone that does not like to sit in traffic?
Obviously you have nothing to add on this issue..

and traveled locally? from Maine to New Haven, and everywhere in between. Aside from an accident, no problems of which to speak.  

If you must drive at rush hour, I empathize. I just don't have to. Single with some midweek days off ... it's fairly easy for me.  

Is it the cost of playing with a wife/SO in the picture? I've been blessed that way, sorta ...

No concerns.. Just reality.. It seems that if I schedule a Noon or 1 PM meeting.. for a few hours.. by the time I leave Waltham, Bedford, Tewksbury, Back Bay, etc.. it's a 3 hour terrible drive to get home.. All I'm saying is lately it seems really awful.. so when I think of contacting a provider.. I pass if the drive home will be impossible.. That's an awful way to look at things.. very tired of it..

after a great session or a relaxing massage. That's why I love sessions at my home.  
Now if my son would just find a new pace .... I could expand my social network and  
meet with the night crawlers again ... lol

agree.. sometimes I find myself falling asleep.. way too relaxed.. after about 90 minutes or so.. in heavy traffic.. hard to stay awake..

and I now limit my encounters to the 128 belt. I do however head to the west as far as Springfield.
 I have spent many hours lost in the city or looking for parking and just can not justify it anymore (unless the provider has a full bush).

And no, if you live on the SS, don't have a mid afternoon session on a Friday!

Traffic is pretty consistent in Boston. Summer is a good time to schedule appts, as commuter traffic is less due to vacations.  Know the traffic patterns and use WAZE app to understand alternate routes.

Which is why it always kills me when ladies are on 128. Much rather see them along 495 north as its so much easier at any part of the day to get in and out with delay for me. While anyone on 128 is really only an option in the morning after the commuter traffic or in the evening.

My classic was that I scheduled with someone in Waltham. The day of the meeting I was told to go to a hotel.in Bedford.... thats a huge difference on 128.. I remember I was done about 2:30.. it took me 3 hours to get home.. 128 to Rte 3 south..awful drive.

The South Shore is nice but the traffic always sucks heading north or into Boston...loved my good friends in Hingham and Hanover but hated the drive ... and no pussy upon arriving at my destination ... the married years.  Always preferred the North Shore, even during rush hour.

Agreed.  I will see providers along 128, but I need to allow for extra travel time.  

I won't see providers in Boston proper, an many of surrounding towns. (Brookline,Newton, Watertown, etc. ...). Not only are the drive times outrageous, but parking is a pain in the ass!
