A nice hand job is most often enough to sate me.

One would think that there might be more ladies
interested in offering this -- but, I find it increasingly
difficult to find.   When Craigslist still had the Adult Services
section, I could sometimes find non-pros who were willing.

I understand that there may be less motivation for pros given
less $$ and more time.   Alternatively, a happy ending massage
would do it, but, pretty awkward and difficult to find out if that
is part of the deal.

Any suggestions?

Most escorts offer a "exotic massage" and some even only specialize in it. You are 98% likely to get a happy ending.

Remember you are paying for our time not the act. Most professional, well reviewed ladies won't do anything less than 1hr. It's not worth the time and energy. I'd be weary of any lady offering 15-30min meetings. IMO

Offering quickies is dangerous because it's going to create a high volume.  High volume is going to attract the boys in blue.  It's a guarantee.  Not to mention it's a complete waste of time to get dressed, drive to a location to meet, to end up loosing money?

Also nobody is going to get a hotel room for a quickie.  Hotel rooms are at least $80 per night and up or it's not a place I would set foot in.  Even at $300 per hour, subtract $80 and it's hardly worth it.  

And it's just feels degrading and cheap.  I wouldn't darken my door for less than $200.

I understand why most high end pros would be uninterested.

Still curious as to:

1.  Why was it easier before to find someone willing?  (Or seemed so).   Again, perhaps there were more part-timers, non-pros on Craigslist when there were Adult Services ads.   They have disappeared.   Backpage is now almost all full time pros -- no amateurs, and few independents.  Perhaps Craigslist got so much traffic that it pulled in some part-timers and nonpros.  

2.  For a HJ, of course, I don't want to pay full service rates.   Really don't even want to go through the motions of getting a regular massage first, even if it ends up with a happy ending.   It is not just a money thing for me -- it is really just all I want.   Sometimes cheap fast food is preferred over an expensive restaurant.

Heck, maybe I am just looking in the wrong places.   Other than scary street walkers, I don't know where to  look...

Location could be the reason you could find it easier in the past than you can now if you've gone from, for example, Texas or Florida to New York City?

No... haven't moved.  Los Angeles area.
I think the change is the Craigslist is not as available... especially
to nonpros and p/t pros.
