Communication is key

Younger guys might not have as much experience, but if you tell them what you like and how to please you, I think it can be a win win for both parties!  

whatcha doing for dinner?

Well Italy, I have to agree with you. There is no real substitute for life experience...no books or "app" can make you a better lover, friend, BF or GF. That is life's cruel joke, we look good and can do nearly anything when we are young....but it isn't until we are older that things seem to click. That comes with life experience. It's all about the journey getting there and the person who accompanies you along with way. Don't be so hard on the younger guys, it's not really their fault. I don't see how you can be in a real relationship while working in this business...but that's just my opinion. If you want to really make a go of it...retire and redirect your energy into finding a life-mate who can make you happy.

how clueless I was in my early 20s (I thought I knew shit but really didn't know a thing) I can see where you are gonna have problems finding a good match. That said, try to enjoy these great years in as many ways as you can . . . they go by way too fast and I can prove it! Maybe you can find a "trainable" guy your age and "break him out".

I expect to get flamed for that, but I do wish I knew then what I know now.

Go ahead rant... this is a forum.  Here's the thing, the majority of guys under the age of 25 grew up with a cell phone and texting etc.  Those over the age of thirty spent at least some of their life communicating with others the old fashioned way, talking face to face.  The basic courteous social skills that were learned in real life as a youth, teenager and young man are imprinted.  I don't see any issue with boyfriend and being a Provider.  There is an emotional supportive connection that exists in that kind of relationship.  Being a Provider shouldn't have any affect on that connection.  You don't 'make-out' with a hobbyist, it is different.  It was explained to me this way.  Being kissed on the mouth is way (much much) more intimate than intercourse with a raincoat.  The boyfriend/girlfriend thing carries with it intimacy.  That intimacy is supported by sleeping together most every night (and I mean sleeping).   There is this time before sleep where intimate couples discuss their personal issues as they go to sleep.  
   I equate provider with say an NBA or NFL or FIFA player.  It's a young person's game.  Young men don't typically have wealth as older men will, and older men don't have the image of YOUTH.
   So a woman has to accept him for who he is AT THAT TIME.    
Ladies get the Ewww he's old from their girlfriends, but he was 21 or 22 what seems like six or eight months ago.  What I didn't know when I was 23 is that me at my age now, is the same I just look old to a millennium.  ItalySantoya you are a millennium.

PS  "Check Please!", P!n

You know you are special. Don't settle for anything less than what you deserve. Find what you are looking for. Any man would be lucky to end up with you. I know I loved spending time with you.

No, no, NO!!!

I FORBID you to retire and break up LA's best superteam duo! What will Emy and I (and everyone else) do without you?!? You're right...you're just going to have to date an older man who actually enjoys the thought of his lady in the hobby...hmmm...wonder who THAT could be?

Emy

Wish I could be Emy boyfriend
