OK Dallasguy, as one of the youngest men on this board, in my mid 20's, I somehow feel like I must step in and reply to this one since I might offer a slightly different perspective.
First off, it's normal for many guys, so don't sweat it. If you are indeed determined that seeing a pro is the way to go and came to the right place to get help ... well, here's what I can offer.
Do your homework, read reviews of known, trusted ladies in your area and find the one right for you. Usually when I contact a provider to schedule an appointment, the subject of age never comes up. They never care about age as long as you have the $$$ and are a gentleman. You may have trouble getting that first appointment without a reference from another provider. Keep trying and find a lady that is willing to see you by some other verification such as employment info. Most are surprised when they open the door to find someone their own age and recently a couple have thought I was LE until I proved otherwise.(to be a smartass I looked up at her while DATY and asked "so, still think I'm a cop?") So don't let any of that bother you. Once you arrive at that first appointment, don't be afraid to discuss any and all of your issues, open up and be honest, she has heard it all and dealt with this before. Let it all out so she can understand and hopefully help.
My suggestion would be DO NOT FOCUS ON INTERCOURSE!!! (don't mean to yell but wish to emphasize a point) That is the biggest mistake we all made as teens. Sit down, relax, have a nice conversation and get to know her a little; just talk a little weather. Then, when you are more comfortable with one another engage in foreplay, or exchange sensual massages work well for me. Work on pleasing her orally and let her coach you through that process. Getting and giving this satisfaction may help the rest cum naturally (pardon that bad pun).
Lastly, follow the advice others stated here. Do not fall in love, or spend too much time or money getting addicted to this hobby. Providers are not girlfriends and the hour is strictly your fantasy; always keep that in perspective. The hobby is not in any way a replacement for the experiences of building/sustaining a real relationship with a special girl. If it can help you get over this hurdle though, more power to you. You can learn much about yourself and relationships through the hobby if you find the right provider(s). Many of my previous posts have had to do with this exact subject. What I have learned, is that the hour is rarely ever about physical desires anymore. Yeah, who knew, surprised me too. But it has helped with my relationships with family, friends, and of course better with women emotionally and intellectually. Notice again not physically; and with an expensive hobby certainly not financially. Take from this what you will and I hope this helps.
best regards, good luck, and please play safe, mr.man
