LA is such an amazing city with so many beautiful women so I totally understand why many hobbyists on here choose to see numerous providers instead of just a few. As a newbie I'm not sure if that's the lifestyle for me. I like the idea of only seeing a few providers on a regular basis, but maybe I'm just odd (especially since I'm young and that seems counter intuitive for my age . I'm curious though, for those of you with a similar view, how long did it take to find your special ladies? How many bad apples did you have to try before you found those ripe peaches?

Also, what's the turnover rate here? I'd hate to finally find someone only to have them disappear a month down the road haha.

But that also describes the duration between ATFs!!!

Lucky me. I had one for four years and one for one year.
Guess that puts me ahead of the curve.

When I first joined TER a couple years ago, the very FIRST girl I met wound up being an ATF for about a year and a half. I saw lots of others, but I always went back to her because she was EXACTLY my type. I figure that's because I spent a lot of time reading reviews, the newbe board, and the LA board before selecting someone for that first experience. So, of course, she wound up being perfect.

with occasional forays to scout out/replace favorites lost to "turnover".

 I met my ATF at the beginning of my TER hobbying. My soon realization that she was NOT a "turnover rate" concern simply endeared her more as the months and years passed.
