I'm posting this message for all the ladies that frequent this board.  It was intended to let you know that romance is not dead but alive an well in Phoenix.  Additionally, it was a offhanded way of saying Thank You to all the wonderful ladies.

The Hobby is an unusual environment with such close physical, intimate relationships.  How you ladies control your emotions, separating the physical from the personal and reigning in your emotions is amazing.  I know it doesn't always happen, occasionally you stumble, and that is only to be expected.  Tina Pink's post almost tore my heart out, and believe me dear, I commiserated with you.

I posted a note on general discussion a couple of years ago titled "For the Ladies, A Thanks", and it is as true today as it was then (see link).  I was new to the hobby back then and didn't know that using an alias was bad, so I used one to retain my anonymity.  Of course, I was also a little stupid and chose a rather raunchy one.

I'm posting this message today to tell all of you how much I, as a hobbyist, appreciate you.  I can't speak for all hobbyist, only myself, but I think each and every one of you are pure class.  For me, you help fill a void in my life that's been missing for a number of years.  I know it is difficult for you, and if I can ever help you in any way, feel free to call on me.

So to all the Ladies of Phoenix, Thank You from the bottom of my heart.

----------------Prior message, link doesn't work--------------
Let me start by saying that I have less than a years worth of experience (I don't consider myself a hobbyist, but don't know how else to describe what I'm doing).  I started because I was lonely, having taken an assignment to a remote city and missed my wife.  I am in the upper half century of my life and have been married for many years (24 less than my age) to a wonderful woman.  I love her dearly and have no intention of ever leaving her.  She is my better half, my companion, the mother of my children, a joy to be around and my best friend.  However, at her unspoken request our sex life ended about 10 years.  For nine of those years I was completely faithful, having learned to do without.

While on an extended business trip (6 months), staying in a hotel room by myself, eating alone, and just existing, I was lonelier than I have ever been in my life.  I don't drink so bars were out and I'm to old to try the dance scene, prefering to listen to oldies (60's, 70's music).  After 5 months of this, I called my first escort.  She was an independed, mature, classy lady whose beauty and enthusiam awed me.  We had dinner and a conversation that I will never forget and always cherish.  I thought I had died and gone to heaven and saw her as often a I could for the next month.  Just to be in her presence and to be able to talk with her was more than I could have ever hoped for, but to be able to have such a close relationship turned the clock back for me at least 30 years.  I can never thank her enough, she is my friend and we call each other often even though we are no longer able to see one another.

I enjoyed my time with my newfound friend so much that when I returned home I started seeing local mature ladies.  I have had the pleasure of meeting and enjoying the company of some of the most wonderful, sexy women in the world.  I have learned to ignore "Appearance-Age" on the reviews and go with gut instinct (I remember one lady who was listed as 32 and could not tell me the year she was born).  Additionally, I am not looking for a new wife, a girl friend, a significent other or a Girl Friend Experience (GFE), rather I am looking for someone to help me remember that part of my life that is missing, the part I used to share with my wife.  I guess I would call it an Intimate Wife Experience (IWE).  With most of the ladies I have been able to find it and I see them often.

So to all Ladies reading this, I sincerely Thank You.  You are wonderful people that I hold in the highest regard, having provided me with so much happiness and joy.  When it is time for me to depart this world, I will leave with fond memories of all the classy, sophisticated, intellegent, warm, loving friends who honored me with their company.

Thank You.

You are welcome. Thank you for realizing this isn't always the easiest job. Thank you for realizing that we aren't always on, even though we really want to be. Thank you for treating us like ladies, not pieces of meat or numbers or as products and services. Thank you for realizing there has to be some degree of separation and many never find it. Thank you for realizing that many of the ladies who choose this occupation (profession) are incredibly intelligent, sophisticated, warm-hearted, and loving and thank you for being (I presume) the type of gentleman that all of the ladies in this business pray to meet.

I think the hardest part of this job, honestly, is some of the things we hear. I can't tell you how many times I've been told, "ohh your pussy is just like a little girl's" HUH? Sometimes, the hardest thing to separate is the words from the person stating them and doing so without judgement. There are many, many droves of women who are much better at it than I. However, I thank God every time I am still shocked when I hear something because it means I haven't lost all of my innocence.

So, ladies, thank you for always being there for each other, for ACCURATE references, for supporting each other, for smiling when you really want to wrinkle your nose at life, and Mya, thank you personally for always being there for me to listen, to laugh at my lame jokes, to keep me upbeat when I'm having a bad day and for giving me the best foot into the Phoenix door I could've ever hoped to enter. You are MY lady of the hobby and for you, I will always be grateful!

Thanks Trashy for not singling anyone out, rather thanking each of us for whatever we bring to the hobby.

Love,

Megan

refreshing to hear. (where were you the other morning when I was slammed for posting a Thank you)...lol

No really...it's always nice to be appreciated and to hear it publicly and to all instead of the individuals as what happens all to often.

Trashycat is a true fine gentleman and is a very caring, respectful man and he deserves every one of those Thank You's you gave him and Thank You for that.

I hope that we will be able to meet some day.
Kisses & Hugs
Terri
