I try to make time at least once per month. Just curious what pace everyone else is keeping

No more than once a month, except under special circumstances, which I won't go into.

Just curious, since you only have one review, how long you been hobbyin'?  And if for a while, how come you haven't written reviews?

Just bein' nosy,
Swim

Also on the average of once per month.  If I have some disposable income, I might treat myself to a 2nd helping a few weeks later.

Once or twice a week.

About once a month plus some special occasion overnighters or such.

Sometimes I'll go several months without seeing anyone, but when the desire hits, once or twice a week for a while.  No real set pattern.

With the exception of opportunistic meetings closer to home, I tend to go on binges a couple times a year in Vegas.  Then it's one or two ladies a day for the week I'm there.

I tried it about once every TWO YEARS for 20 years, mostly with mediocre to bad experiences with LV rip-offs ( agency and internet rip-offs and upsellers and bait&switch artists - u name the scam and it was tried on me ). Tried a touring independent early January of this year who was real GFE and the first not to have 500 NOs and she initiated DFK, BBBJTC, DATY etc. and rocked my world - comparatively.  WOW, what a difference compared to what I had gotten in LV.   So she turned me onto TER and some other boards and showed me the ropes in my 3 sessions with her over the next 6 weeks.

Now I'm making up for lost time a bit.  1+/week but I'll eventually have to cut back some when my slush fund runs low.  LOL

Ive only made 1 or 2 over the past couple years, but this year Ive had 2 already and a 3 third one coming up soon.  Damn its horny out here!

2 or 3/mo...somewhere around a 50/50 repeats/new ratio.  Utilizing shared info on TER has resulted in very few disappointments.

Hi Swim,

I am fairly new to hobbyin', and very new to this forum. Had some good experiences and some bad, but TER is changing that

Are we allowed to write reviews on Providers we have seen 1-2 months (or even longer) ago?

There are ups and downs, but right now,it's about 5 times a month.

I think you have up to about 3 months or so to write review.  Go to reviews and read the rules for writing.  That should tell you.  If not, ask Sly or Jazz32, I'm sure they would know.

Have fun and welcome to the hobby,
Swim

Three times/month as a general average.  Sometimes more, sometimes less, as the budget, and availability of my friends allows...

"There are ups and downs,"

Well, of course there are and it's my pleasure to make sure you have ups and downs!

on travel (I have an ATF in an out of town city I travel to on business, and whenever I go there I always see her), then locally see a local ATF once a month at least, then depending on visiting/new might add a third.  Fortunately my ATF's give me price breaks from the current quoted rate and hold at the level of when I first started seeing them (though I also usually bring them gifts or take them to dinner).  Having 2 regulars makes things convienient and safe, but tends to drain the budget for new experiences, so I usually don't see anyone new unless they have solid reviews.

I can afford one. I end up doing two. I always want to do three. That pretty much sums it up.

But I havent had a bad experience with independents anywhere.

Unless I'm too busy, 2x/week. Hobbying's vital as water.

serious hobbyist. once every two weeks plus some special occasion overnighters.
