this is like when you got your first job and they asked what experience you had.... it is your FIRST job.

How does one get past the need for provider reference when just starting out hobbying.  

Not all websites mention this.  I have had several interactions with ladies and despite saying  upfront that i am newbie, run into issue.  

Been big waste of time.  

How can one find Newbie friendly providers??  I just recently got a reference from only provider i have ever been with.     im willing to give name and i am easy to find on google wiki.  

In my limited experience, saying I'm a newbie or don't have a lot of referances has always been ok, at least, with some.   You may have to offer extra information, to calm any reservations.   You do have to be willing to give a bit more at first.

I'm just getting started also.  Thanks for the tips.
I figure if there is a will, there is a way and there seems
to be plenty of incentive after reading all the reviews. LOL

I was looking at the precheck services such as date-check and they all require employment information or provider references.  I am currently unemployed and going back to school and am a complete newbie...so is there anyway around this dilemma?
