I recently decided to venture into this "hobby". I have tried to book with 2 very well reviewed providers but both wanted references I don't have. Any advice on how to proceed, a guys gotta start somewhere, right?
There is the self help center under the life ring on the top right hand corner of this forum. It is full of FAQs. Personally I have found P411 very helpful.

I met with a well-reviewed provider as my first encounter. She made an exception because she could tell I was a nice guy. I was just honest with her and told her that I am new to this hobby and all that. I met with her for lunch and she verified me by checking my IDs and getting to know me more.
So, truthfully, I did hobby briefly more than 5 years ago. I hesitate to ask any of the ladies for a reference now, although I would love to see them again. I would like to go through P411 or DateCheck but I am now retired. Does anyone have experience how these services deal with verifying a retiree? I am truly sorry if this question has been asked every week since 1776 but this is the Newbie board, after all.
