I'm attending the Commitment Ceremony of a couple who met in this game and it's been wonderful. Two great people who've formed a life partnership after meeting in our "floating word."  A bunch of mongers and providers were among the guests. A mixture of mongers and civvies, and it all worked out.
I joined the party after spending time in Las Vegas with another group of friends who threw an epic  bash on AVN weekend.
Which leads to the subject.  When I became part of this world, I hoped it would lead to some really good connections to hot sex.  It did.  But it did more than that.  It connected me to a circle of people, men and women, who are now my friends.  And it's a wonderful thing.  I can only hope others of you who have a similar inclination can experience this gift.
I wish the happy couple many years of bliss.

Dear Inicky,
Would you say when you came into the hobby that you certainly didn't count on having the social and personal relationship's that you have now? A guess it is an understatement, that it is more to a ho than just the dough.

Occasionally, you get lucky and find some really nice people.  It's the same with life in general.  The larger the circles, the more people you meet and can find connections with.

I hope they have many years of joy and satisfaction.  

Just kidding.. I'm still learning the ropes.
For a Dummie like me.:. It takes years.

are you talking about a same sex couple or a heterosexual couple.

Think its great they met and are committed to one another. I have been in this game only a few years and have met some wonderful ladies myself with one in particular becoming good friends with. A lot of people here seem to think its not possible to meet " the one " this way but your friend is proof it does happen sometimes. Hope they have many good years ahead of them.

...of people.  I thought I had seen it all.

A lady I knew years ago met her husband at an M&G in Vegas during AVN week-end five years ago.  She has long since retired, relocated to Vegas, and has a successful civvie career now...married the dude, and they now have a family.  I have nothing but the best of wishes for them both.

That pair-bonding used to mainly happen in communities. In those days people would marry within their community or to someone in a similar community geographically separate.

was not nearly as handsome.

This happened to be a same-sex couple.  However, one of the Maids of Honor was a 6' tall drag queen dressed as a fairy.  And, yes, it's safe to say the entire wedding party is strongly in favor of marriage equality.

Sorry, son, I assumed you wouldn't want to "go public" until your teeth were fixed.

When you meet the couple, you can turn around, bend over and apparently let them experience how deep your sympathy is for the both of them. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

Well, I was drunk last night, lol!  So what's your excuse for being the only sourpuss here?  And who said "everyone on here is a real peach?"  Don't worry, I've met some real wack-os and shit-heels, too.  Happy now?

fcked up as this world can be at times, it can also be redeeming and wonderful in some ways. A weird microcosm of the everyday world.  Thanks for the reminder.

Bring him back!!!

if he didn't post shit like this periodically, we'd have less to banter with him about!

Nicky was gender bending a lil...

I cant get a genuine o with a normal date. Being thrown tons of money, gifts, having my ego fed. I am addicted. The confidence I get from this total stranger that sees me as new, foreign, uncharted territory,. I have so many projects this hobby is funding. I get so excited taking the risk of inviting total stranger in to get naked and perverse with. I have one , I met at 22 ten years ago. Our interaction slowly over time blossomed. I was nervously just gettin feet wet then. Ten years ago. Knowing the income this provide w would allow for me to have the free time and funds to pursue all the things I wanted to do as a musician an artist and contractor.
I remember after each massage I would be off to scour the dollar store for things to use for renovations on the apartment I was living in just as a fun hobby.
I remember I bought all this awesome glitter and paint and I painted all the walls with this awesome paint and glitter and shellac on it
and then I actually retile  kitchen floor
so I was just getting my feet wet as a young little escort just starting out as a masseuse
how I did my first GF E was this guy came and as the Italians would say he made me an offer I can't refuse
I was 22 and I was totally freaked out even just touching the guys dicks and giving a handjob
but this one crazy guy home again I still kept in contact with for 10 years.okay that's enough of a ramble for today the Samsung talk text is not writing what I'm saying correctly.
the computer is back from the repair shop but I am NOT good at hooking up stuff up that is not my strong point
but yes I totally agree with you that for some people this can be a great social life
I know for me I am so excited to meet the new people
I find it extremely for filling as a social life for me
especially where I am only attracted to intelligence which are unavailable businessmen
I am totally alone walls and want nothing to do with having an annoying boyfriend that wants to talk everyday or be up in my grill at my house everyday because I love my downtime
so for me all the appointments I do I am so mentally cashed at the end of all the point mints I just want to be alone watch TV and have complete then silence in peace and quiet
so I can as they say restore my chi.
but yes for some people it is just a job and the bank it and make tons of money and for other people it is a job as well as a social outlet like for me it is so fulfilling I do not feel the need to have a boyfriend on the side nor would I ever have enough energy to carry on so many endeavors with men
I am extremely selfish with my time and love spending my time doing cool things for myself and my apartment
but I find some of the older clients are such hot tickets and they are just so funny and cool to hang out with and talk to

I tend to keep that shit off the boards...but who knows what the future may hold

impressed and shocked lol. Is this really you Nick? Very beautiful and endearing, didn't think you had it in ya. Well said Nick, the drunken stupor explains it of course. It's always a nice reminder to see those who still believe in 'love' and can find it despite any barriers of any world.

y second 'wow' of the day/

FYATWYRIO!  I'll be back in New York tonight and then y'all's asses are MINE!

will punish you of course lol....but its really no surprise...tough Nicky's pretty easy to peg He most certainly doesn't have me fooled no matter how much of a quick wit he 'thinks' he is lol. He's a big sucker for the 'love bug' I believe deep down too. Now we're even, he can hate me for that public comment as well and I don't even need to come close to meeting Mr. Nick. The only difference between you and I...there'll be absolutely  no punishing

Any woman who has any morsel of a brain can see right thru you Nick..so don't take it out on her....that's just preposterous. Now apologize for the nasty word...that was completely uncalled for.
