I first met this girl about 10 years ago, maybe 12, when she was about 23 or 24 years old, an astonishing beauty, who was a current Wicked contract girl. It was when porn was profitable, and she was at the top. She was also quite full of herself, her beauty and her success....and she asked for a ridiculous amount of money.  

Glad to hear you have a wonderful evening with her.  

Even though I was hobbying before I found TER, I still learn a thing or two from you and other pioneers on this board. I too had a similar experience, it took 10 years for me and our relationship continues to grow better and better each year.

some of us old dogs can still hunt pretty good....

I'm working on something similar now, but it's been 12 years, and she is still smoking hot

question for the guys...do you look back at the money spent over the years and do you regret it?  my hobbying career has been over twenty years... i've met some incredible women during that time!  no regrets for me..

20 years! thats a lot dough man ... I started in 96, kind of slow, however I didn't know it was hobbying I was just having fun, traveling around, going to clubs trying to meet magazine models and pornstars. Then I brought a computer and ran across all kinds of sites, thats were my troubles started. I was like a kid in a candy store. After understood the game! it have been mostly smooth sailing ever since. So to be honesty, at first I had some regrets but overall I have developed some great relationships, and met some of the most beautiful, interesting, desirable women that a normal guy like me could ever had the chance to see.

Congrats.  This the rule for the majority of pornstars and providers.  When they are in their twenties and riding high with optimism and large egos they will often respond with indignation or with ridiculous monetary quotes to your overtures.  However, as the years pass and the skin sags reality sets in.  The only exception seems to be the mega stars who became wealthy during their careers.  However, they are often available for the right price.
