Don't tell me you got hard  
What happpened to make you take that jump ?
Even if you thought about it for awhile and finally decided to go ahead what was the first thing you recall that led you here . Please humour me , I find this subject interesting , Kendall Lynn

I was working late one night in town and saw a street walker with a great ass and curly red hair.  I had seen these girls out working for years but on that particular night, that particular girl was too good to pass up. Twenty minutes, a hundred bucks for half and half in the front seat of mt T-bird.  I was hooked.  I went back to "Candy's" corner looking for her a few days later but she was not there.  Never saw her again.

........ and TER was from a newspaper article that happened to catch my eye about a local sting operation.  Prior to this I had never heard of TER or even thought about hobbying but TER and other on line services were listed in the article and it perked up my interest to explore what I was missing.  I wasn't getting anything at home so I figured WTF?

I entered this game twice, at the tail end of two bad marriages. I'm not the kind of guy who will cheat on his SO (though I don't judge anyone who doesn't feel that way).  I'd always been fascinated by the idea of being with a hooker and just felt powerfully drawn to try it.
First time was just after I'd separated from my first wife.  It was pre-Internet/pre-TER.  I'd heard there were street girls in NYC just south of the Javits Center.  Cruised through and found a hot-looking blonde who gave me a CBJ in the front seat of my car on a dark street.  Didn't want to do that again so I bought a cheesy tabloid full of ads for Manhattan cat houses, found a few good ones and I was off to the races.
Round two started a few years ago as marriage #2 fell apart. I knew I wanted to get back into this life but I was out of state for a while and just starting looking around on line.  Voila!  Found TER and some other sites, joined up and started lurking.  Spent a lot of time on the Newbie Board, learning how to play that game wisely.  Finally took the plunge with a girl who took a chance on me even though she was a tough screener and I had no references.  There was just something about the way I communicated with her that she liked and trusted.
She damn near ruined me for anyone else.  But not quite!
And, honey, I really need to see you again soon!

To satisfy something I felt I was missing. I had just lost my mother around the first time i hobbied and I craved intimacy

Five bucks and the rest of the tequila and we were upstairs fucking.

Considering I was only fifteen at the time, I wouldn't say a lot of actual thought went into it, and also considering the amount of cheap Mescal I had in me, I doubt thought was really even possible. lol

Long, boring story on my end but Curly's link should have it ha ha. I ran agencies long before I ever took the plunge myself. Started with my ex husband saying, "You will never make it without me" bwahahhaa. Yea right.

Variety without the inevitable complications of an affair.

I'm a white guy who wanted to have an experience with a smokin' hot black girl.  Once I tried the hobby, I decided to keep dabbling every so often.

The first time I saw an escort was in Vegas back in 2004.

Calling it the hobby doesn't bother me, but calling ourselves hobbyists to me makes it seem like deep down we are ashamed of being whore mongers or Johns and just like the hookers who have to call themselves providers or courtesans to keep their self respect, we have created a PC vocabulary to assuage our guilt.

Fuck that, I am a whore monger and proud of it. Ok, maybe proud is too strong a word, but I have way too much fun doing this to be the least bit ashamed of it, and fuck anyone who feels differently.

BTW in your case, I am sure you can find a Hobbying/whore mongering destination much closer to home, with just as many women at a much lower price point, but if Vegas is what woks for you, who am I to argue?

Kendall,  

I was on a business trip to San Deigo and I was in meeting all day...I was 24 living the Corp live...I just got done working out and it was late.   I saw an ad on the web for girls and researched it and called the agency.  I told them what "type" of girl I was attracted to and a hot, thin, blonde with bigs tits showed up at my door two hours later.  She opened the door and was like WOW....you are HOT.   We shared about 2 hours together, fucking, drinking, licking and sucking and she left.  That was my start.  After being in crazy relationships with WOmen that are demanding, I'd rather pay for sex then to have the drama in my live.  I'm young, in great shape, and good looking....I have NO problem talking to women in the bank, stores, nordstroms, starbucks.....but I DON'T want the drama in my life.  I'm sure the providers are reading this thinking....I KNOW>>>>I KNOW>>>>

We went from having an amazing and plentiful sex life to one where I was begging for it. How frustrating and humiliating that was. That started me searching online about escorts.  

I needed cash for my fancy car and condo. That simple

Went two years without even an interview.  My degree and experience meant nothing anymore.  Weird, I still I liked to eat and sleep in dry places in spite of it all.

I like sex, I like variety and I like women and like to be with as many of them as possible in my short life on this earth.

water.  Well, the pussy dried up at home so I had to find another release for my relief.
