with a little bit of money and a copy of the personal ads in my hands.

How could it not have happened?

Once I walked in, I never looked back.

Glad I did too.

Significant other going through the change and tired of such long dry spells so looking to satisfy those normal male urges.

I was like a jack in the box. Raise the oldest child but siblings came 10 and 12 year later so alot of self time on my hands. I would sit in my room and read erotic books i.e. ZANE. Once I left for college it was on lol but I still couldn't satisfy that craving of pleasure. So watching Pretty Little Women on repeat one night after class, I came up with the idea well she looks to be having fun I want to do that lol. So in between classes I research and fell madly in love with the business. Pick up and moved to Chicago with the plan of being like Pretty Little Women... Indoor of course lolbvvs

This was going to take extra work, time in the office (she works in an all female office and completely abhors lesbians) and working at home.

I asked her, "what am I supposed to do with you working all this extra time"?

She said, "get a hobby".

Any questions?

and did not want another relationship after losing her.  But, as time passed, I simply needed intimacy with a woman.  I am middle-age and I like women my own age.  I tried casual friendships with women.  Each of them began to want more.  And, every one of them deserved more.  No matter how glibly we talked about keeping things casual, each of the women I met were actually hoping for something more.

Now, I'm not under any delusion that I'm some great catch.  But, I do believe women my age are generally more hopeful about finding a partner, and more aware of how quickly time passes.  I could tell that continuing to see them was feeding that hope, and kept them from finding someone who could give them what they really wanted.  So, I stopped seeing women socially.  A few years went by.  I still missed my wife.  I also missed the intimate company of a woman.

I knew about escorts.  You'd have to live under a rock not to know.  The Internet made searching easy.  I found TER.  I found lists of women, by city, by age, by every attribute imaginable.  They had rates and hours.  Some offered GFE.  Some offered things I'd never heard of, and after googling, wished I never had.  To each his own.  I found what I wanted, and the ladies I see get what they want.  And, I can feel that tender, feminine, intimacy again . . . and pretend.

About 15 yrs ago, I had to attend a conference in Las Vegas.  Prior to my trip, I was surfing the internet for things to do in Sin City and I stumbled upon some information on the legal brothels in Nevada.  One of the websites that I discovered was Blake Willfong's Unofficial Chicken Ranch site which had loads of information about the southern Nevada brothels.

Needless to say, it peak my curiosity, since it was all legal and the ladies were tested routinely for STDs.  So, I ended up driving out to the Chicken Ranch which is located in Pahrump, NV.  After that first visit, I was hooked on the hobby.  I didn't discover TER until a couple of years later and the rest is history.

My wife does not get sexual pleasure from the act of intimacy and intercourse with me. She tolerates it for my benefit.

I look at porn on the web just before sex with her to get excited to the point where I will finish quickly so she doesn’t have to “suffer” through the sex. I myself love (need!) to give pleasure during sex. I get excited when my partner is excited. my wife does not really get excited in this way. I often feel selfish when I have sex with my wife because I feel I am taking all the pleasure for myself and that in turn makes me feel bad and the sex is ruined. I feel her discomfort when I am inside her. This in turn lessens all of my enjoyment of the act itself. It’s like I am masturbating with her body.

She tries to hide it but I can feel it through her. I hate that feeling. I have definitely faked orgasms (if you can believe that) and stopped the sex because I know it was getting uncomfortable for her. I perform oral sex on her but I believe she just endures it because she wants me to be happy and not because she is deriving sexual pleasure from it. I asked her what she likes and what turns her on and she doesn't really have an answer. There is no specific thing or act that does. She likes what I do to her so she tells me. Also, she does not know how to, or has never, pleasured herself. I believe the beginning of knowing what turns you on and how you like others to touch you stems, at least in part, from you knowing how to excite yourself.

I am not a selfish person and I love to give of myself. I wish I could give my wife sexual pleasure. I do not know why things have changed so much since we began our relationship. Sometimes I find myself getting angry about this and I feel tricked. Maybe she held back all of these feelings and actions just to marry me and satisfy her parents in some way? Maybe she felt she had to get married before a certain age? What if she is not attracted to men? I know this is stretching it (or I hope it is) but I am still desperately searching for answers and fixes. To have things change so drastically so quickly indicates to me some condition was pre-existing but hidden from me or something changed for her immediately after we got married and I do not know what that is or was. I need to find out no matter the cost. I will change if it is me. If there is something wrong with me and want to know about it so I can fix it as quickly as possible. I really am having a hard time with this and I want all aspects of my life to be good and I want the same for my wife.

I have been to one on one counseling for this and I had to force my wife to go to couples counseling twice. She eventually refused to go ever again. She said she felt attacked. I never attacked her. I only wanted to talk about what was happening but she feels it is an attack. We have not been back since. I no longer know what I can do. I gave her an ultimatum a couple of years back but that had the expected effect: “Oh I will try to be better” then nothing at all changed. When I try to bring it up she gets defensive and shuts down and cites all the stress she is under from work as the cause.

Now I cheat. I cheat to keep my sexual self happy so the rest of me can stay with my wife and keep everything we have built.

I met some women on the web through sites the adult section of Craigslist (when it was there), backpage.com, and now here. I  regularly see a few women; Some are listed here on TER. I met one amazing woman recently who really opened my eyes to how communication, sexual desire, and ecstasy can really be. We talk openly about what we like and what we do to each other that we enjoy. She is staggeringly intelligent, intense, hot, very open minded, and very much in touch with her sexuality. She is different from many women I have been with in my life and I am thrilled that I can please her and connect with her. It’s the missing piece. It’s amazing. I absolutely love it. (I will be reviewing her here soon!)

I know how good she makes me feel when I am with her – and I am not just talking sexually. I feel like a human male. I feel like someone who is desired and worth something. My wife refuses to deal with this rationally with me so I seek it elsewhere and it keeps us together ultimately. If I had no true way to feel this way or if I had not strayed I would have split with her after she refused to go to counseling with me years ago.

So that's my story. Sorry it's so long.

Fore one night only, I was a Chip -n- Dales dancer? Ya know how you keep running into the same situation comedy? Well, it was my pleasure to bump into Sherri, Blu eyes sandy blonde hair nice tits and a sweet ass, just the type you'ld like to keep on the downline. Memorable moments to remember while try to figure out how i'm going to get into her mind, and jump into bed, again crossing paths while walking home from College! Want a ride???

United States Navy. I was about 24 years old and was stationed at Jacksonville Fla. I had broken up with a girl about 6 months before and what with all of the schools and traveling around I hadn't had a chance to go out and meet anyone new. I was very horny and didn't really feel like trying the bar scene and hope I got lucky so I got a hotel room and let my fingers do the walking as the old advertisements used to say back then. I remembered reading a news paper article about a certain Escort Service being busted in town so I checked out the yellow pages and found a bunch of other services listed.  

I called two or three until I found one that had what I was looking for. Young, blonde and with long legs. I don't even remember if she was even close to my description but she definitely made a very nervous young man feel comfortable and eventually very happy in the hour or so we spent together. That was the first time I ever saw a provider and the first time I ever had more than one "cup" in an hour. I think I had three.. and I have been a hobbyist at heart ever since that night.

My first experiences buying sex were haphazard. Sometimes I would buy a "bottle" on The Block. More often I would pick up street walkers. I got to be pretty good at this and was on a board for this activity. I only used an ad from an alternative newspaper once. But as gas started going up and the pickings got slimmer, I started using CL and BP; which led me to this site.

I realized at a relatively advanced age that they are the sexiest women on the planet, especially Colombians. I've seen something like 120, and have generally loved every minute.

At an early military posting, there were barracks rumors of what went on in the massage parlors in town.  So I went and saw for myself, simple as that.  It was just massage parlors for a while, then bar girls overseas.  The first incall was a supremely unsatisfying experience--no boards then, as far as I know--but I later discovered escort forums and then I was really off to the races.  I've had regular girlfriends too, but hobbying was what gave me the practice and confidence to go after them, and I've never regretted taking it up.  (Well, maybe that one time in Greece...)

I have been married for over forty two years now.  We have kids and grandkids.  Fifteen years ago my wife was in a serious car accident.  She sustained a closed head TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury).   As a result, she suffers from severe migraines and back issues.  She is also mentally impaired (short-term memory problems and some loss of cognitive abilities), emotionally unstable and has evidenced a personality disorder.  Unable to return to work she has been on disability ever since.  As you can imagine, she was not the person she was before the accident.   Definitely not the women I married.  

One of the first casualties as a result of the accident was the loss of sex and intimacy.   What we enjoyed five, six times a month prior to the accident became five, six times a year after the accident.  And it went downhill from there, finally ending completely about five years ago.  By that time sex had become a duty and not anything to look forward to.  I was no longer my wife’s husband, lover and partner.  I was her primary caregiver.   She was and is totally dependent on me, physically, financially and emotionally.

About a year after it ended completely, I was approaching retirement at the early age of 60, a time when most of us think about what our lives will look like in retirement.    Being celibate for the rest of my life did not appeal to me.  But I couldn’t really date, even if I knew where to find a suitable partner other than bars and nightclubs.

About that time, some news show ran a story on escort web sites, TER, BackPage, etc.  I started doing some research and ending up joining TER.  The first opportunity I had to travel away from home I arranged a ‘date’.  I was scared to death.   It wasn’t an overwhelming success but it didn’t discourage me.  The next month I had another opportunity and it was great.  I was hooked.  

It has been four years now and I date about once a month, within my budget and my ability to manufacture an alibi.   I don’t think of it as a hobby because I believe sex and intimacy is as necessary as breathing.  Sooner than I like to think about I will be at an age when; either I can’t perform or I won’t be able to stand to impose myself on younger, attractive women any longer.  I dread that day.

I have been fortunate to find four ladies that I seem to click with and for the most part that is all I see now.  They range in ages of 35 to 50+ and I have been dating them anywhere from one to three years.   I enjoy them as friends almost as much as I like seeing them for the sex.  But I kissed a lot of frogs to get here.  And I don’t regret a bit of it

A few years ago, I used to work as a clerk at some local store in Montreal. There was a girl working there for whom I fell real hard... and she was so amazingly beautiful! I don't think I've ever met a girl like her since! The problem was... she didn't want relationships... any relationships. She was about my age, still lived with her parents and a relatively large family... and her parents wouldn't want her to date guys, unless he would become her future husband... that they would choose for her (who would have to be of the same religion as her, which wasn't my case anyway). Essentially an arranged marriage. She had never had a boyfriend before, still hasn't had one. And it was painful for her, I could tell she wanted to get out of that mold her parents had put her in, but she also loved her parents, and so wouldn't go against their wishes. And there wasn't much I could do to convince her otherwise...

In any case, I eventually stopped working there, haven't seen her since, and essentially moved on from this... to a point. From time to time, I think of how beautiful she was, and I can't help thinking "what if" even though I know it would have been impossible...
So finally, now I guess I'm on some sort of twisted quest to find a provider who looks like her... Although it hasn't stopped me from visiting some who didn't fit her profile at all (I guess to some level, when wanting to see a provider, desire trumps features).

But if ever I find a persian girl (she was originally from Afghanistan) with long straight black hair, soft white skin, who looks even a little bit like her, I'll be happy. Surprisingly enough, there aren't that many in Montreal, especially for incalls. Even though if I did find one, I don't think I'd stop at that point. Having been into this hobby for about 6 months now, I love it too much to just stop like that. I guess it was my main motivation to get started on it though!

I left  my country , an like every Imigrant i came with  dreams and I was scared.Totally everything new...no english, no money. My first 2 month were in miami, working as a housekeeper, them move to Cali and work in a ski resort for 6 months, after move to NY and live upstate wetChester county, work in as waitress. Then in the city selling shoes.I being in many jobs, you named.it ..the last one iN  

 an office.where I fell in love and at the end I have to quit. Sad and broken heart, someone introduce me to the industry and that's how I started.I learn to apreciated this women, find many smart and good people
and Valorate Models, Explore my sexuality and be confident about it. My conclusion is that to never judge no one, work hard and never stop dreaming.Don't worry what the rest is doing, focus in improve yourself everyday. Love God and love even y

The people doesn't like u. I created giamooregifts cause I'm a believer in love, good sex, and two always keep that spice alive.be sexy, be fun, be erotic....kisses G

Dated a girl for two years then we got married. Divorced after a year. About a month before we separated I had a hard day at work an went to a massage parlor. No happy ending there an I wasn't looking for one nor did I know it was available. Very naive.  Started thinking I need to get out of this marriage. She spent way too much money.  More than we could afford.  So I went to a different massage place an she offered a happy ending. I said no I was still married. Finally I. Was done with the wife so we divorced. I only did massage parlors for a long time. Then dated a girl. She was great. Liked everything I did. Loved sports thought she was perfect but she was between guys and moved to San Francisco. Back to the MP.  Then dated another girl an she was the one.  The one I could see myself with forever. Dated for 8 months she broke it off.  Back to the MP. The previous girlfriend asked out 9 months later. I was in love. Again she dumped me. So here I am. Do what I want when I want with who I want.

I was always socially awkward, especially around women. I would settle for friendships with crushes. Sexually, I would masturbate and rely on the occassional trip to the Oriental Massage parlor when they were still prevalent in Santa Moncia, CA. I wasn't making much money then, and this was before TER. I discovered newspapers like the old LA Express, and there tried my first incall escort. This would be about 20 years ago.

The Internet and TER came along, and my budget increased. Over time I went through a series of one-night stands and the occasional escort. The best girls were in the $400 range, over the limit at the time.  

Now, years later, at 50 years old, my budget has grown. I prefer finding providers I connect with rather than just hookup with the next hot girl on one of the escort sites for an hour or so. I did find one such ATF, and we saw each other a half dozen times or so over two years before she retired from the business. We are still friends on some level, meeting a few times for coffee.

This is dangerous emotionally. I occasionally date in the traditional sense, and although I know the difference, I have to remember the provider is only there for one reason and not confuse the two engagements

I was married, happily I thought, to a feisty lady 14 years younger than I, and she liked to have threesomes. No complaints on my end, and our first provider was a fabulous TER Vegas reference named Angel and Dana - wow. Anyway, for reasons not material she left me for a younger guy, and I won't pretend I wasn't wrecked. But as an older and wiser now twice divorced guy who did not want to lie to women to get sex, the hobby was a sanity safety valve. I've had 10 experiences, 1 experiences, 11 experiences, and even no kidding made one genuine friend of a provider who retired but we've stayed in olatonic touch for five years now, so if we're both faking we're both nuts. I love sex and hate loneliness, love women and hate hurting anybody, so my most difficulty with tip toeing about here has been finding someone I'm on a level field with, and not where I'm exploiting anybody. I hope someday to find one (or sheesh maybe two) normal, middle aged regulars to Sugar Daddy. So, yes, one of my wives got me into this so at least I should be grateful there - not much more a Boyscout tale possible here I wager.

Started out as a "shy" teenager which I accepted and just avoided the sexual side at all costs. Getting rejected or misinterpreting a girls "signs" just terrified me to the point that I NEVER let it get to that stage with girls in my social circle .
One did and we dated and lived together for a year I guess . We were in our 20's and things were going fine so I thought . Came home from work and she moved out !
I was hurt over that for the next 3 years and swore off chicks FOREVER !
Fast forward 30 years and I simply don't want a relationship and was celebit for all 30 years .
I'm still socially scared to death of being intimate with a lady ! I've even managed to run from women who said straight out "we are going to fuck like rabbits tonight " .
Sigh .....
So I have been doing this for the last five years trying to change my ways and learn why I'm so screwed up in my thinking .
Believe it or not , I'm not really nervous when I P4P and have a pretty good time but it still feels strange being intimate with a female . Maybe I just don't like sex ? Maybe it's fear of intimacy ?
I'm here to learn about myself I guess .....

I was 17 when I begin to have sex. Gave my virginity to my first love whom I've known since I was 12. Once he moved on and had his first child I felt abandoned by the only man I trust..well the only man that I trust that I'd slept with. Soon I had come to a comfort level where I allowed another man to touch me. From that day forth my sexual passion has been an untamed fire. I enjoyed feeling the warmth of a body, hearing, and tasting the pleasure I could bring to another. Embracing my womanhood, my power to make a soul melt.

An old friend of mine decided to introduce me to some folks she knew after seeing me let loose at a wild house party. From there I took my first photos and went on a tour in Harrisburg, PA. Although I felt like I gained a family during my journey there was a lot of information kept from me. I sought out more for myself. In a short time I landed my first job in the nursing field. Leaving the hobby gave me enough time to think of what I wanted in life. I realized that I love being a nurse but, I'll always come back to a place where I felt as though I didn't have a voice.

I'd decided to come back this past summer as I continue my education. Then not being able to find a suitable 'playmate'. I found that this has been more than the right time. Guys in the hobby are much less complicated. There isn't any questioning, no arguments, no headaches. I love my peace of mind, I love my independence, and I love to not have to answer to anyone. My passion has been met by meeting others with one just as high and then know how to go home afterwards LOL. My finances are finally coming together after coming to the cold hard truth that guys outside of the hobby refuse to pay for even a sock but, expect to get their dick suck when they feel. Yea fucking right.  

So this is my short story of why I'm here. I'm at peace with myself and able to pay my bills. While I continue my journey of enjoying life the way it was meant to be. Unpredictable, unplanned, and free.

Amazing story. You sound so resilient and I admire your honesty. Big hugs.

It was 2007 and I was a waittress at a sports bar. I worked a double that day and had a poker group that requested me. I was slaving to keep the drinks flowing and serving my boss friends. His little brother was 19 and getting smashed and once he started grabbing asses I cut his whole table off. I didnt expect a tip and had 10 hour day. The Boss fired my lowly self as soon as I finished my sidework. My poker guys heard a little of it and started throwing 20's on top of the already paid tabs. As I was crying outside and getting in my car a guy from the group came to me. Chatted real nice and handed me a business card. An escort agency. Hmmmm? Never thought of it but called the very next day.  I went to work getting the proper clothes and nails polished and fretted all day. Then we posted on craiglist and off I went. I did outcalls and only upscale. My first few calls my panties were soaked on the way there. It did something to my body I couldnt hide. I didnt like working for someone else but did very well and had some fun.  I ended up getting a boyfriend and keeping some regulars on my own. Did that a few years and also worked out of the yellow pages. Dont laugh. I also did very well. Back then you opened up yellow pages and called. Requesting a redhead, brunette, or blonde. Occasional latino or ebony. There was no texters and websites and pictures. No emails, endless calls or drama.  I do think things were financially secure and economy was good and there was no hh dates. Or disgusting quick sessions. Tips were a given. Not that Im complaining but I prefer eye to eye and skin. I took a few years off and attempted to make it on 300 a week server jobs but a smile and body like this shouldnt be wasted on diner patrons. When july 2014 came I watched ads a month and debated. Am I ready for this backpage phenomenon? I guess so ! Look at me now! Puuuuurrrrriiiiiinnnnng. Like an overfed cat Im happy and content and so glad I decided to share the love. Call me!

OK, I've never been very sexually active.. Very shy awkward... Had dreamed of Happy Ending massages for a number of years. One day at a new massage office (licensed therapist), as she was working on my back, she undraped one glut then surprisingly, when time to do the other the drape was down to my knees... I was in shock. Some very slight and minimal teasing and on the flip, eventually left with just one small area covered. She asked if there was anything else I wanted, and very timidly, I asked for a "little more" massage without the drape. Well, that was my introduction the HE massage, went back next day and noticed that there was no drape, so went with it for a repeat... Then I googled/binged her phone and found BP. Searched out other body rub folks, and the 3rd one offered nude rubs but I found  out she didn't have a massage table and worked out of a hotel. She claimed she could do a great job on the hotel bed and I would love it... Well, nervously gave it a go, I was VERY afraid of uncle LEO (and still am). I was totally shocked when on the flip, she commenced with BBBJ. So, welcome to hobby.

I read "The Price: My Rise and Fall as NY's number 1 Escort," by Natalie McClennan.
With my curiosity piqued, I delved deeper into the online underground escorting world. I'm still young, but at 20, it all seemed risqué, glamourous, and like an adventure. I come from an middle-upper class family and this was all certainly taboo.
After about a year of research, I finally mustered up the courage and put a rudimentary TER ad up, not knowing what to expect. I got a call. I didn't even screen the guy, let alone know what that was.  

I figured if I didn't enjoy myself, I wouldn't do it again.  
During my first meeting I was a nervous wreck. I thought at worst I would suffer some mental trauma - this was not what girls like me were raised like. Or so, I thought. I found I thoroughly enjoyed myself. The power, the pleasure... the thrill. I was hooked. Literally.

It makes me cry even thinking back to how I started....

But I hope this comforts someone out there who may need it... Or helps guys understand every girl is different. Every situation is different. or to Never judge a book by its cover. No matter how  bright and appealing that book may look. You never know whats going on inside...

I was homeless (living out of my suitcase) in the middle of the winter in NYC Jan 27 2014. After 2 years of optimistically saving every penny (that i could) from my minimum wage summer job. 4 years of focusing on my studies. NEVER partying, hanging out with friends, doing typical high school things. It was finally my time to go off to college. A few weeks before I was going to be whisked away to the big apple from the south. My dad broke the news to me that he couldn't afford to send me off to my dream school... I don't think I've ever felt so heartbroken, lied to, led on. In my entire life. I understand if you can't afford a 60k year (my dad made "too much" for me to receive any aid) but literally waiting until 2 weeks before I was supposed to be leaving was what made it horrible. Thats when I realized... You REALLY cannot depend on anyone in life.

Thankfully the school allowed me to be admitted in the spring instead of the fall. and after long talks, posting on their Facebook, emailing multiple advisors. they finally were able to help me get a little bit of assistant. But not enough for me to live on campus. Either way- knowing that the opportunity was still there. I was even more determined to get to NY for the spring semester!
So I was for sure going in January.

My intentions were to find an apartment with a girl I had already met from a group off of fb, get a job as a server. and go to my dream school and....Well go after my dreams!

 
January finally comes...when I should’ve been excited to be in Manhattan and starting school at The most prestigious fashion school in America (literally number 2 in the world- hint hint)… I was extremely scared and helpless…. Living out of the holiday inn on Wall Street with a bank account -3500 after only 2 weeks!!! Thanks to the hotel!!! I had no money. I literally had to find a stranger on craigslist and live with him until I could get on my feet. Thankfully he lived in (to this day) the nicest white-glove apartment building in nyc that I have ever stayed in, was a gentleman, gave me my space, let me use all of the amenities the building had to offer, and was amazing in bed (he was my first NSA partner lol. If you're still out there.... I lost your number- message me!!! xD

Anways! Being the southern girl with an extremely conservative upbringing that I am. I knew nothing about this lifestyle at all in late January!!! But I did know.. I was TOO damn pretty to be homeless! Although I received endless offers with well known agencies in Manhattan, modeling really would've taken too long. I was like 'need money to eat' broke :p I needed fast money!

 Now I didn't start off escorting. I tried being a sugar baby at first.Being so unaware and oblivious I really dove right into the dark side of this world. I've had someone threaten to kill me, stalked me, computer hacked into, and much more I'd rather not go into-detail on...So I started escorting in April/May...but really worked like on and off because I was always so hesitant. so I have only been working working for maybe 4 months.
But as I just said. Not knowing of sites like TER/P411 Tumblr where people are supporting everyone. I really went in blindly...

 
So, ultimately I know its a bad way to start but I started doing this because I had to survive in Manhattan.  I refused to go back home because of money… To see your dreams literally a few streets away and potentially have them all taken away (Again)  because of money problems… I refuse AMERICA, I REFUSE for you to try and classify me and disable me because I am not an offspring of the wealthy.

So I did what any truly ambitious girl would do, adapted and accepted after (seriously) thinking of every possible thing I could do for quick money- escorting was what I was going to do to make it. This was going to be my story to tell once I made it… Which I will happily own up to! I think America needs to adapt and realize that escorts are not what the 80's made us out to seem.

I am still am only doing this so I won’t be $200k in debt after receiving my undergrads… I want my grads too damn it!

 
I’m doing this for my future… My future children’s future… My future grandchildrens future… I’m building an empire.

However I am SO glad this path found me. I have learned SO much about myself in such a short amount of time.Before this I was very inexperienced... In all realms. Every client I meet teaches me something new about myself.. I truly enjoy it!  

 
The materialistic things are all necessary for me to focus now. But only temporary. I refuse to get caught up in shopping sprees, boards,pointless photoshoots. Sorry thats just not my cup of tea at the moment or where I want to invest my money in....Now I know since I'm new to being independent I have to make a website and take more professional photos. So for the sake of people taking me seriously. I am working on that :p  
But once this whole newbie phase is over. I'm going back to save save saving! I've seen how cruel the world can be. I lived out of my suitcase during those blizzards this past winter..... I'm not doing that again! EVER!

Well I've probably posted this before somewhere on this site , but this seems like the most appropriate spot... Plus it's a little cathartic anyway since you can't really tell this to anyone outside the "hobby".

I've traditionally believed in monogamy, loyalty, and when I married almost 20 years ago, I swore I would be faithful!  I swore I would never leave my family especially the kids!!  I had already had that happen to me as a child.

So here I am, finding myself in the situation I though I'd never be in... And I used look at others somewhat judgementally for straying outside the marriage.

My story is not unique in sure.  And I realize it takes two to tango.  After so many years of marriage and both my wife and I establishing our careers,  we decided to have kids.  Sex was dwindling and at that point it became more of a chore or a "job" just to have kids.   After the second child, sex stopped completely.... For over 6 or 7 years, I lost track.

Now to those who will say, yeah because the woman is tired of taking care if he kid and housework etc.   Well I give my wife credit for doing much of that in the beginning.  And she still does a great job coordinating doctor visits, trips, etc.

We both work full time.  90% of the time I'm the one getting breakfast ready for the kids, making lunches, food shopping, doing laundry, making dinner for the kids, making sure they get on the bus, pick them up from daycare and after school care, help them with homework, do the dishes.  Making sure the house is clean... And most importantly actually sit down and get INVOLVED with the kids!!!!!  One on one at their level and PLAY with them.  She is more of a spectator.

All of this for YEARS and I'm almost completely ignored.. Barely any acknowledgement, no communication other than did you do this or that.  She is physically not their and when she is, she's not emotionally their!!

So over the last 7-8 years of our almost 20 year marriage I had felt completely neglected.  To make matters worse, my attempts at showing affection or appreciation for her were completely turned down. I had not only been neglected but also feeling not "wanted".  She is too independent .. No need for me other than sharing bills and household chores.

All these years I had been a good husband and father and I couldn't take it.

I needed companionship, I needed to feel a woman's body again, to feel  
What it's like to have sex again with a woman.  I just needed someone to recognize I existed and I was appreciated even for just a little while.  So that's where my handle came from - Unloved!!  That's how I felt!!  And with her still do.

I did not want an affair since I had hopes we would patch things up.  I arranged for marriage Counselling and we did the exercises so well that the counsellor was amazed at our progress.  Hey we both have high level degrees... Following instructions is easy.  But soon we found we were slipping back to old routines agsin.  

Worse thibg is she never saw a problem and still does not.  So it's like I'm the only one that gives a crap.  

I did try some websites on hooking up with other woman who want an affair.  Well what a pain that was.  Plus I really did not want all the baggage from someone else at the moment.  I had no intentions of divorcing (yet)... Mostly because I want to make sure I get to be with my kids while they grow up.

But I resent my wife and I am having a hard time coming to grips with it.  If the kids were not in the picture, I would be long gone.  She's got a income tat rivals mine anywsy so it's not like she can't fend for herself.

So here I go entering the hobby. First with AMPs.  Actually one of my closest providers is from a FS AMP.  Last time I saw her she gave me over $200 in gifts.  We just have a pretty cool connection... Which took time and still cultivating.

But most of the AMPS other than her were pretty impersonal.  Then I found another provider who left an AMP and went Indie.  I joined p411 an TER at her advice and the rest is history.  She's another great lady whom I love to visit.

Along the way Ive met some wonderful people.  A few were night my "cup of tea".  But over all these woman have taught me how to love again.  At the very least they have shown me I CAN love again.  And even for a brief moment, I'm wanted.  Even for a business transaction.  But they could refuse not to see me.  So even by paying... These woman "allowed" me to have a wonderful experience with them and during that time I am their complete focus.

The hobby has opened my eyes too.  I now see these woman not as stereotypes, but decent people who decided this is what they want to do with their lives.  I'm sure there are exceptions.  And the clients to for the most part are usually not some sleezebag that the media always portrays them/us.  

We are normal everyday hard working people.. Some of us broken, and for the moment, these woman are healers... They help to mend a broken heart, or at least help in the transition to other possibilities.  

I've also come to realize it's possible to love more than one woman.  They are not mutually exclusive.  Loving another, does not take away from loving someone else.  Sort of like when you love all your children the same yet each in a unique way.

Yes I miss being "loved" for me and not just my "donation".  But it fills the need and it's still a relationship - a mutually beneficial one at that!!

So thank you to all the providers I've seen and thanks TER... I don't think I would have survived very well recently without you.!!

Unloved

I made a deliberate decision to enter the hobby.  I started with FBSM and then migrated to Escort.   My situation is unusual.  I made an online friend in another country.  Eventually I went to see her for a vacation expecting to enjoy her companionship but we realized that we were perfect for each other.  After further soul searching we married and see each other once a year for the last 6 years. Eventually I plan to retire and move in with her.  Our sex life isn't great.  We are both used to being our own best friend and I'm getting older but I knew that something was wrong with me.  

  Sometimes when you carry a burden for a long time you try to ignore it but it's there.  I have a terrible time staying emotionally connected or involved when I'm being sexual. I know the reason.  I was raped by a female relative just before my 5th birthday.   That old defensive reaction of disassociating from my body keeps coming back and it's a mood killer. Being a male performance artist well the show doesn't go on if the muse isn't upon me.

My wife is not an available resource so I've turned to providers.  I have to say that as I've opened up to various providers that they have been great.  I don't need sympathy. Their understanding and conversation has been very valuable.  I'm encouraged from recent progress and I just need to persist with therapy.   If only I could get my insurance to cover this

My wife would be madder than hell if she found out what I was doing but if I can deliver on the session she wants and deserves then she owes a debt of gratitude to many ladies that she would other wise judge.

Sorry to hear about your trauma but it sounds like your trying to overcome it.
Good luck.

I just started to focus on other things.  Family work etc.  While I flourished in my job and became the ideal brother, son, dad etc I was unhappy.  I fell asleep alone at night and while I could probably land a steady GF or SO on my own I find myself not wanting to.  I may be kind of a dick for saying this, but if Im gonna go spend several hundred dollars for a great night with a great lady I dont want to have to return home and service myself.  Then do that several more times and still face the possibility of getting nothing in return.  I make a good chunk of money for someone of my age and hate to frivolously toss it out the window.  So I knew of escorts, who doesnt, but had the stereotypes in my head of the slutty dressed street walker.  No thanks.  When I started to look into it several years ago I found myself pleasantly surprised with the high class women I found.  I lost many of the society driven thoughts about the hobby and found that the community is not full of monsters and low-lifes.  Stereotypes what can I say?  Dont know if Ill get back into the whole GF thing I assume at some point I will.  My bed is still cold at night unless Im willing to shell out a few grand for some company, but I can still share it with a beautiful lady for at least a little while at a time.  Cant really complain.  Im enjoying myself for the time being.  Suspect I'll hang around awhile

My bed is still cold at night and that's even when the wife is in it😳

I was very poor. On my own at 17, met a woman pretty much like me and we lived in a garage made over into a home while I worked my way through a BA at a good regional college in the Midwest. My work came to pay well, and I started looking at the coeds at school. We grew apart. I always wanted just one woman, but when a woman sets her eyes on a man, she usually gets him. Me at least. I wasn't always faithful and went from relationship to the next for many years. Even tried a marriage once. That only lasted a few years. Sometimes I was broke and sometimes had a lot of money. It didn't matter. I never really had to settle down, but as I matured I stayed with one woman longer.

I always thought of streetwalkers and massage parlor girls as something foolish. Like getting drunk or spending a weekend pigging out on lobster and beer. So I sampled that a little at times, but figured it was a waste of money. I worked hard and tried to invest to make my money grow. Lived very cheap and simple like when I was a kid. Had my heart into my work.

I smoked cigarettes and when I was getting old I got throat cancer and beat it, kind of, but lost a lot of my ability to speak. So things were difficult and I was no longer attractive to women. I thought about how I might of died from it. I came into more money, more than I'll be able to spend before I die. I still smoke, but not as much. And that's when I started to enjoy seeing women who just want some some money for being with me. That's better than trying to have someone around who I have to talk to. So that's how I got into this.

My journey Started back in September 2013. I was a 25 year bachelor. I'd never been married (Still Not) and Never had a girlfriend (Bachelorhood still intact). I had grown tired of hit and miss nights out w/ my buddies. I had seen and viewed escort posts on the web, and like many I had my objections (Street Walking dug addicts , diseased ridden former strippers, girls w/ pimps hiding waiting to jump you and rob you, etc...). I decided that I needed to take a chance. I wasn't as well informed about booking an escort like some people, so I completely bombed my first time. Saw a girl that caught my attention and called her the night before. We agreed to meet together for two hours (Mistake) the next night at 10 pm. It turned out she was only 5 minutes away. Called her at 9pm the next night to confirm. 9:45 I tried calling her again. Finally at 9:55 she calls from a different number and gives me the apartment complex where she is, but not the actual number. 10pm I get to the complex. 10 minutes of trying her until she gives me the apartment location. Rush to the apartment, and It's NOT the girl in the pic. I didn't leave (Mistake) thinking that she would still be good. She said she was in town visiting her sis and that her sis was out and allowed her to use her place as an incall. Turns out this was her first time as an escort .She wasn't bad but not good in the sack. The apartment was well lived in. A few clothes strung out, and the place smelled like weed. about 1 hour and 15 minutes in and she looks at her phone. Allegedly she had some friends coming over to party within the next 20 minutes, but she claimed it was a last minute type of deal. 5 minutes later the fire alarm goes off and she rushes me out. I'm still getting my shoes on once I'm out of the apartment. In the end, my first experience was Awful. The Second girl I saw a month later has a more interesting story. Contacted her a few days in advance. She was from out-of-town and advertised on BP that she was going to be in town for a while. As the days led up to our meeting, we texted back and forth and for some reason she though I was LE, but she reluctantly agreed to continue w/ the meeting. Pulled up to the backside of the hotel at night. Texted her, and she tried to call it off. She thought I was LE, and she said that I had to prove that I wasn't LE. I then figured out that she had a view of the parking lot. She asked me to step out of my car and hold my pants down for half a minute. I reluctantly agreed to do so. A minute after flashing her, she gave me the room number. I again made the mistake of booking a 2 hour date. Get to the room, door opens, another case of false advertising. Except that she was a bit more attractive than the last girl. It was a bust to say the least. No Kissing and only one pop per hour. I'd say it was a step up from my previous date. My third date, which I considered my first official date was a homerun. I eventually had better dates, but I consider my third date as a milestone on my time as a hobbyist. Since I had my second, I had joined TER and started doing my homework. Saw the girls ad and searched it on TER. Good but not bad reviews. She was the only good provider advertising that day. Called her mid-afternoon to set up a date. After some traffic problems I made it to the hotel on time. It was a fancy hotel, and she'd booked a suite. Walked in and low and behold it was the girl in the pics . We talked for a good 15 minutes to break the ice before I was ready to go. A body to body massage to get me warmed up before I was ready to go to town. She gave an amazing BJ, and I returned the favor by going down on her well groomed and clean vagina. I felt like a champ when I left. Since then I've seen a wide range of beautiful women (and 2 complete busts) since then and I've fully enjoyed having NSA drama free dates with women of different backgrounds. I look forward to having more great encounters in the future.

I'm the youngest of three children, with two older sisters 6 and 5 years older. I am extremely shy, and would never think of approaching girls. The few times I would have a little crush, I always ended up in "friend zone," I'm still very socially awkward in new settings, but with people I'm comfortable with, I can be very goofy and a little more outgoing. I had never been on a date, and was still a virgin at 33.

This August, I actually had disposable income when I headed to Vegas with my dad, sister, and her kids for a hip hop dance competition that they go to watch every year. I had planned to sneak away to head to Parumph and Sheri's Ranch, and had already set up a planned meeting with one of the courtesans. We talked, went to her room, and negotiated a price. I totally got gouged, but at the time,  I totally didn't care. I got to see, and touch an actual naked female body. She got on top of me, and when time ran out, she finished me off with her hand.

After getting back home, I found out about back page, and luckily had a real good first experience with that route. That led to a rather blah experiuthe next time with another back page girl. I tried an AMP, and got full service my first time. It wasn't until about a couple months ago, that I found TER and escorts with their own websites and actual reviews.  

I scheduled with a provider in this way for my 34th birthday. On the day, she had to cancel because of that time of the month. We rescheduled for two weeks later and I finally got a taste of a real provider. She was great with my nerves, and has the distinction of being my first kiss.She guided me through a fantastic hour and a half session, with multiple pops, and a little cuddling in between. That was earlier this month. Now, I've gotten hooked. I'm definitely going to reschedule with her later, but am lining up something with another provider in this upcomming week.

I know later on, I want to get in a real relationship, but right now I am enjoying my new hobby.

Same story as many middle age guys. Married 25 years and I've gotten hornier by the year. My wife,5 years ago, tells me without any warning' "I'm not sucking your dick any more and sex is no longer important to me." Did not know what I did to cause it. Stewed for weeks, did not want a divorce because of my kids. Decided I was going to continue my sex life, without her. AMP first for a year or so, then on. the web found TER. Saw dozens of women, most were great experiences. Pure lust and sex with NSA. Learned that I got as much pleasure out of pleasing a woman than I did getting off myself. Found 1 or 2 ladies I connected with and saw a couple times a month. Both disappeared, one I know retired. Have cut back on frequency due to finances, two kids in college with no scholarships. Still absolutely enjoy the NSA aspect of it and I am still hornier than ever. I do it less often but in some cases that's better because I look forward to these encounters even more. I respect and appreciate what each "undercover lover" has to offer and I do my best to make sure they are satisfied.

I was married when I was 22.. Still married 42 years later...but about 14 years ago, an odd thing happened..My wide told me that she no longer would have sex with me.. ?? What? give me a break.. she said she would give me a hand job.. but that's it.. after some years, that got really old.. I started masturbating every day.. that got old and very unfullfilling.. I realized with horror that I might never know the feel, touch and smell of a woman again in my life.. I was in a panic
About 4 years ago, I was down in Myrtle Beach with a few friends and he wanted to go to a strip club.. we went and I discovered the VIP room.. I went nuts.. I had a few times of getting off with a girl in them.. I met one girl there and we developed a relationship of sorts outside of the club and for a lot of money she came to see me in my rented condo during a golf trip.. so now I knew I liked that .. she was 25, not in her 60's was beautuful but was not a provider technically.. and was not comfortable with the whole deal..  
Fnally I decided a little over a year ago to take the plunge. so I went on BP and compared ads to phone #'s here on TER and finally located a girl who would see me.. it was fun and was great to be back again.. and then I went kind of nuts.. I saw all kinds of girls..many more than my reviews.. and blew through a ton ofmoney.. I became too fond of one or two and it scared me.. So, for now, I have stopped seeing anyone.. I have spent way too much money and felt way too strongly about some special girls so right now I am on a hiatus.. I couldn't continue to see one or two girls each week.. so we'll see what the future holds.

You make me realize how easy my life has been.. and how choices contribute to where you end up.. one of the toughest things, I think, for every provider I have known is the understanding that getting up every day and going to work is difficult.. but that will be a way out.. I compleltely understand the need and the ability to see a stranger and make some extra money.. for a guy that judges no one.. and really does enjoy meeting new friends.. I was told that I was like a child playing in a room filled with broken toys.. fixing them can be very difficult.. sounds like you are doing so..be strong.

I was fortunate enough to date a hot Scandinavian man for over two years. We had so much chemistry that we had sex everywhere. We had sex in the bathroom of a restaurant, limousine, plane, jacuzzi tub, over a sink, on the beach and much more crazy places. We were extremely crazy in bed. When we split it was huge loss for me that my life got upside down. I thought about doing something that I never did before and that's when I thought about escorting. Escorting was a new world, and I met quite amazing people so far. I fortunately met people I had an amazing chemistry with and had the best experiences with. I learned that we are all free and we have to explore our sexuality in extremely dfferent ways. One of my greatest experiences was with a couple. We were supposed to have only 4 hours but we had so much chemistry that we ended up spending all night long together. I woke up at 10 am in the middle of the couple. The details are super juicy and I'll tell you the rest when you come for our HOT date.

haha now thats funny!!!

my wife, with whom I've been for 21 years, has basically communicated via her actions that she's no longer interested in having an active sex life.  After our last child was born, who is now 10, we've had sex 5-6 times, most of them several years ago. She doesn't really like to be touched, she doesn't like to DFK, she hasn't done oral on me in 15 years. I tortured myself for years, maybe I'm not helping out enough around the house, so I helped (a lot) more. Maybe we need more cuddle time, so I tried that. Nothing helped. And before I get a comment like "if you helped her enjoy sex more, she would want it", I have always been diligent in ensuring her pleasure, making sure she had thunderous orgasms. I guess I missed the signal early on when she didn't share the same sentiment.  But I love her still, since outside of sex, we are extraordinarily compatible, and also I won't leave my kids, so I felt stuck.  I'm a reasonably fit, attractive and successful guy and I could easily find a replacement for her if we divorced, but I'm not willing to go there.  

But one day, after her refusing to go to counseling with me and then not following through on her promises to try harder, I got so frustrated and so desperate for female touch, that I decided to pay for sex.  This was a big deal for me, with a 70s first wave feminist mother and 2nd wave feminist brainwashing at an Ivy league college in the early 90s, I would never have ended up in the hobby if my wife had tried to connect with me and my desires and just had sex with me once a month (I'm not really asking for all that much).  

So I said god damn it, I need to feel a woman's body against mine, I need to feel like a man again. So on a business trip to San Francisco, I contacted a provider with great reviews, set up a meeting. I was totally nervous. Then she walked in the room, so fucking beautiful and sexy. I had had no idea I could find women like that.  This was October of 2013.  I took a break for a couple months after that, digested the experience, and then tried again in NYC. Had a couple of less than perfect experiences, until I figured out how to read between the lines in reviews and self-descriptions. And then met some incredible smart, interesting, sexy women, who I adore.  One has become a friend, who I've gone out with socially (at no charge) when traveling for work outside my home city.  

I am still learning to relax and enjoy the experience, as I get quite nervous with new providers. And sometimes I let the talking phase go on too long and don't quite end up with what I want sexually, but that's my own fault and I'm working on getting better at that. But unlike some, I want intimacy sexual, physical and emotional, and I've generally been able to find that, which makes me a much happier person.  

So I lead a double life, thankfully she is clueless about such things, I think she believes all providers are trashy drug addicts and ugly losers, so would never consider that I would do it.  I haven't mentioned sex to her in 7 months, and she hasn't brought it up either, so we're living like best friends and roommates, but I can live with that now that I have an outlet

Its great freedom in sexulality,  
and im sure only creative sexual engineers
 lol so to speak can do this stuff.

I can really relate to this. Especially the part about loving my wife, and craving physical intimacy.

Been doing this for over 10 years. Wish I made more play money [lol] because I'd put it to good use. I have enjoyed this 'orgins' thread with histories from both the gents and the ladies . My story is not very dramatics...I just like to have sex a lot. I have found intense chemistry with some great ladies. Some are ATFs and repeats but my eye still wanders. So much out there to choose from..just having fun.  
J

I always have had a very high libido and so did my wife.?? Eight years into my marriage my wife decided sex was a bad thing. It should be only for producing babies! After 5 years I really missed the intimacy. I had an employee that kept saying some day we would have an affair as her husband had a small cock and sucked in bed. She knew I was hung as she would flash me and tease me to see me get hard. I finally gave in. We started to fall in love. But then her husband got another job and they moved away.  

I moved to close to the metro area. I started to get the itch. But I didn't want to have an affair where emotions got in the way. This was 5 years after my affair. I had a meeting in the cities so decided to research escorts on various sites. Back then Craig's List was the big seller. I stumbled across [moderated] site. Found them to be a lot more attractive. Finally got to my hotel and hoped on line. Made the call and she said she would be at my room in two hours.

21/2 hours later I call her. She tells me she will be there in half an hour. An hour later I call she doesn't answer. I give up and figure it wasn't meant to be. I should go to bed. Half hour later I am to horny as I continued to search. Tried another lady. Got her friend and was told she would be there in 11/2 hours. Right on time there was a knock on the door. I was so nervous I went Pee 20 times waiting for her!  
I opened the door and there stood a petite gorgeous blonde 35 years old. The sex was amazing. I paid for an hour and after two hours she said she should go as it was 1:30 a.m. She asked if she could use my shower. She asked me to join her! Then after the shower she said let's just fill the tub and soak for awhile. When we got out she said she needed to call for a cab. I told her it's 3:00 a.m she can spend the night and I would buy her breakfast. I woke up to an amazing Bj followed up by 45 minutes of sex. We showered got breakfast and I gave her a ride home. I handed her another $100 and she kissed me deeply then put the money in my pocket and said I had fun too. I was hooked from then on.

Wasn't long and I came across TER. Now I use TER to find what I want. But nobody has compared to my first time.

To take this a step further I enjoy photography. I have developed 3 good friendships from this.

Ditto.

Nailed it....

Other than a few unimportant details I could have written this, right down to the over the top helping around the house business. What the fuck?

well...

the whole thing started bc at the time, at the age of 21 I felt that i had missed one of life's greatest joys...as someone who sometimes thought to himself "what's there to smile about?" I had felt an emptiness inside of me that was the product of never being with a girl; Always having to lie to my friends when the conversation of sexual conquests came up, always improvising with what I saw in porn or on TV...and in terms of Girlfriends, that was something I hadn't had since I was 15...there were actually a few reasons for the lack of women in my life but moving to a small town and a lack of confidence were the main ones.

At the time, one of my friends had was to be married, this was significant b/c he had been a born again Christian for the past 3 years, basically a virgin himself, I remember the ball busting he took in the days leading up to his wedding...among all the jokes were actually some tips which I heeded...such as jerking off before hand so you can last and not using the ultra thins b/c they break easier...

With this on my mind, I thought to myself that when I did get a girl, more than likely she'd be more experienced than me...and expect me to take charge and to know what I was doing, I didn't wanna disappoint her with my lack of experience or potentially have her laugh if I shot off too quickly. I figured I could pay for it and make my rookie mistakes with someone who could teach me something and make it an enjoyable experience that would build up my confidence. After reading a couple of other Virgin's exploits with escorts on the internet, it made me sure that this was the route to take. I went to a couple of popular sites 1st but I eventually found the ideal by chance, a beautiful blond with a genuine vibe about her. After a few days of dialogue I was convinced that she was the perfect one to help me out, we set an appointment and talked almost daily. She made me feel good about myself w/o even seeing her face to face. Though she understood my situation and promised me a pop party, I still wanked off a few times leading up to our meeting, I was nervous and per usual over thought things. Without having this read like a VIP review, it was a very memorable experience, it actually made me realize that sex isnt always like porn; though it can sometimes and that is what we call "Forgot it was a service/Once In a lifetime"; it doesnt always go off without a hitch, doesnt mean it cant be fun in spite of this. Ive met some genuine and very cool people in the hobby, and the experience has certainly helped in the civilian experiences that followed.

Basically, Good times...GOOD times..

Edit: whoops

-- Modified on 2/5/2015 11:08:50 AM

My wife and I were married in the '50s after we graduated from college. We had met there and after living together for the last couple months we got married. She helped me get my MSc and eventually my PhD. During this time we had great sex and it only got better after me getting an excellent job doing what I had trained for. Unfortunately this only lasted for 52 great loving years. During those years I had no reason to stray, although during my mid-life crisis I was tempted and I even suggested we try a little wife swapping with some neighbors, She declined but said, if you have to do it go ahead but she didn't want to know about it. I just couldn't go through with it.We had such a great thing going I just couldn't do anything that would hurt her. I doubt that any woman would do anything better than my wife had been doing for many years. Then when my wife got ill and died, I mourned her death for nearly 4 years. We had both said if one of us were to die we wanted the other to remarry if we found a suitable mate. I tried some of the web sites like Match or something like that but I wasn't all that thrilled about women in my age group.I missed female companionship. Then I discovered TER and got together with an 50 year old elegant woman and she tutored my entry into the hobby. She is still a good friend and at 82, I'm having a great time we a few lovely ladies.

ours is an interesting story which mirrors mine exactly. I am 60 years old, and like you, I am  
primarily a caregive to my wife who is largley incapable of having any kind of sexual relationship. In addition, and from accidents and numerous surgeries, she is very, very fragile and delicate, so sexual acitivity is out of the question entirely. She is also obese, and thus unattractive physically to me.

In recent months, I have been looking at the backpages, and do this almost daily to see who is new. My interest is such that, like you, the idea of being cellibate for the rest of my life is highly unattractive and makes me feel like time is passing me by. I am just not ready to get old yet!
My libido, sexual interest, and drive are still very much in high gear, and I have not been with a woman in over 10 or 12 years now. But, I'm ready, loaded, primed, cocked and ready to fire at the first opportunity. Got to make up for all that lost time!

The BP, and now my recent discovery of TER have given me new impetus for female compansionship. I have not met anyone yet, but I am actively looking. Specifically, I am looking more or less for someone in the local (immediate) area that I can go see and visit 2 or 3 times a month without having to spend all of my available time driving long distances to see her. As in your case, it is difficult for me to "get away" or "escape" for any lengthy period of time from the wife, so I sometimes make up reasons to be gone (going to visit buddies at the golf course for a few hours; going to the hobby shop to browse and hob nob; going to work out at the local gym for a few hours). Works most of the time, but I have to be very discrete here. The "plan", once I finally meet someone, is to use the established "reasons" as the time slots to visit with a lady for a few hours. I am careful and doing my homework and "due diligence" ahead of time. Money for "donations" so far doesn't seem to be a problem for me, as I am three times retired with pensions.

I would ge happy to be able to just find ONE lady in the local area to visit with reguarly. I don't need a stable of them.

As I am just starting out, I am fairly confident that I will find someone soon.

Thanks for sharing your story!  Enjoyed it a lot.  At least I don't feel alone now......nor do I
feel that my situation is as unique as it first appeared to me

I finally decided I wanted to experience sex at least once before I die. I have had very bad social anxiety since a young age, so I felt it wasn't going to happen by conventional means. The prospect of seeing an escort was frightening to me, not only because of first time having sex, but also fearing that the "hobby" was a shady world where LE lurked around every corner, and thinking that all providers would be jaded and hardened from running from the law.

Luckily this site and others dispelled those fears about what visiting an escort would be like. My opinion has changed to where I'd say probably the majority in this business, clients and providers alike, seem to be pretty nice, down to earth people. Anyway back to the story... I'm lucky that I was able to confide in my social worker, psychiatrist, and my Dad. All understood my plight and were supportive. Between them and lurking on TER and other forums, I worked up the nerve to finally make the call.

My luck continued with the provider I ended up with. She was extremely kind, patient, beautiful and skilled. I'd say that my time with her was one of the happiest hours of my life. I haven't worked up the nerve to go back again yet but would like to. Probably I don't have the courage or the funds to ever be a serial hobbyist, but nonetheless it has been a very pleasant experience to dip into this world. I really enjoy lurking on the forum... lot's of interesting, mature perspectives on here.

I got started in the adult business when I was a single mother in
college.Shortly thereafter I married a client whom was an attorney and a
single father.I played soccer mom and then we had financial problems so I
went back into the business still married and quit the university in my
senior year.My job strained our marriage which ended in divorce I survived
on a meager existence to focus on being a mom.Well my son is ready to
graduate college and I am without my degree.I love traveling and men and
hope to somehow mix a civilian job into the hobby some day.It's more fun
being a single escort without a husband and children chaining me down.I
plan on touring the country in search of finding quality dates that don't
stigmatize me for my desires.I love traveling with other providers so I am
not lonely in a room.Ideally I want life long part time meaningful no
strings attached relationships as I reinvent myself.I love the advice and
intimacy from special clients it becomes spiritual .

I’m on an unexpected free pass from my wife of 18 years, and have been enjoying The Hobby, for just under a year now.

I have started an anonymous blog about it

It all started while working in SF in the late 70's and seeing the ads for
visiting stars at the O'Farrell Theater in the Chronicle. I fin@ere% Marilyn
Chambers and was on my way, spending evenings of $1 lap dances at that
place. I found my first MP in Berkeley across from the Ashby Bart
station. This led me to hours upon hours with many Santa
Cruz/Capitola hippie chicks and a few Mill Valley independents. FF 25 years
and started it all over again with Josephinetrivalley. Now BP and TER.
What a ride! And not much has changed except for the grooming and it costs
about double what it used to.

Living in the moment but living with vivid memories!

I started fantasizing about sex at a young age. I grew up in a upper middle class home and my parents always worked and no one was ever there. I explored with myself through masturbation, through movies, erotic books. Even discussing sex with them now is uncomfortable. Some of my family members know. But the older ones do not. I also use to watch shows like Benny Hill late at night. I became very curious as to why I would get turned on sometimes while watching this hilarious guy chase naked women around all the time. At the time, I pretty much kept all these feelings to myself. And then, my first crush on a woman happened.  
 
Still a young girl, I came across a movie that my parents had rented. They were out, so I thought I’d check it out. It was called “The Lover”. The movie had been originally written in French by author Marguerite Duras. It starred Jane March. I was so taken with her. It was the first time I identified with a character. The way she was, the way she moved, how sensual and sexual she was amazed me because she exhibited behavior that I had felt and always always kept to myself. I remember crying because it was me that I was looking at. I know that sounds crazy, but I’ve always been that way.  
 
Fast forward to me being an adult woman, I often would get annoyed with the person I was dating because everything sexually was about them and their needs. They also never wanted to try anything new or were very closed minded. And I loved desire, lust, heat, passion, but I just wasn’t getting it. And so for several years, I remained faithful when I had a boyfriend but I grew tired of the sex.  
 
Now hold that thought. I need to give you a little history, or should I say more history, but of a different kind….  
 
I am now responsible for a few people in my family. I have responsibilities on top of responsibilities. I was getting so stressed out and frustrated to the point where I was pulling out my hair on one side of my head just while sitting at my office job and thinking. I still to this day have bad insomnia.  
 
I had good jobs, but they weren’t good enough. Why? Because they didn’t pay enough. It came to a point where for the first time in my life I was taking anxiety medication. My eating habits were horrible. I just wasn’t taking good care of myself trying to take care of everyone else. And even now I am still guilty of that from time to time.  
 
Finally, I just couldn’t take it anymore. I kept reading this blog by this escort and I became fascinated with the stories. Mainly because she was experiencing sex in many different ways, but also because she was doing something she loved and was able to live comfortably. That’s all I want.  
 
I want to be able to take care of my family without it taking a toll on me. I got into sex work for three reasons: Family First, Money, Goals. And it doesn’t hurt that I get to earn my pay by being the sexual creature that I am and not only pleasing but being pleased. I love giving affection. I love kissing and erotic touching. I love the sounds of moaning and heavy breathing and eye contact, I love it all. But more importantly, I love being able to help put my niece through Junior College. Help my grandmother out. Pay off debt, etc..

Was in a sexless marriage, which I eventually put behind me, but I had to have my ashes hauled or I was gonna go crazy, so started being a monger at some Nevada brothels while traveling.  I still make a brothel visit every once in a while, but got my feet wet with an escort about 8 years ago who clued me in on the in and outs.  Have met some terrific gals, most of whom became regulars for extended periods of time.  Being in the hobby has left me with a smile on my face now for a long time.  It has enriched my life a hundred fold.  Numerous forays into the Match/eHarmony/et al dating scene that generally had me pegged in the "friend zone" only confirms my hobby choice as the right way to go.  Gonna pay for "it" one way or the other, and I can't live without the touch and scent of a woman.  So absolutely no regrets.

I started having sex late, and got married to a woman I'm not sure I ever really loved. There were many points where I could have said, "No. I don't want to do this," but I never did. My wife had a weight issue, and when I discovered after using Weight Watchers to drop 25 that she was never going to work hard to lose weight, I started losing interest in her sexually. She also stopped wanting to have sex, and she had the nerve to criticize me for masturbating.

Add to that the constant strain being married was causing. It was death by a thousand cuts: criticism, sarcasm, overspending, no sex, no forgiveness, etc. I started to feel like I was losing myself. Finally I decided to look elsewhere. I found BP, then TER, and started hobbying. I found a great provider early on, then another. I discovered I was an excellent liar, keeping my wife completely in the dark. Once she went on vacation for a week and a arranged 4 dates while she was gone.  

Nine months into the hobby, I finally said the "no" I should have said earlier. My wife and I separated and I got an apartment and started hobbying in earnest. I don't regret anything about it, not even the lying and cheating. I freed myself.

The idea & the opportunity to see the world & connect with it! I love meeting new people & being able to see the uniqueness in every individual. This hobby definitely comes with a lot of freedom & I am enjoying it to the fullest!

I met my ex-wife while married and living in Las Vegas in October 2001. I worked in advertising for MGM/Mirage and she was a stripper at O.G.'s.  I didn't like that club but instead spent every free moment hanging out with day shift girls at Spearmint Rhino. Even having sex with a handful of them. On a Thursday I stopped in after work and we met. Quick point - my wife is back in NYC so she's out of the picture. She was there due to a weeklong suspension for whatever. We got along great and decided to go out Sunday after she got off at 8. By go out I mean in - cause if you ever get to hang with a stripper outside the club you better take her home and enjoy. We met the next day, Monday around 6 and she asked if she could move in. I said yes. Anyway to make a long story shorter, she was also married to a guy who pimped her. She had been doing this for 3 years, since she was 19.  I rescued her from her situation and put her in touch with her family. Even encouraged her to apply for jobs she never believed she could do. We both partied hard but when we left Vegas for Tampa she got clean around a year later. I had also mostly stopped taking narcotics but if any of you pay attention to the news I was hooked on oxy's. 3 years later in October 2007! She told me we were over. I got clean in a week but the damage was done. I tried form2 weeks to get back with her and when it failed I went back to the Bronx. And threw myself into opiates, pills, patches, heroin, needles, it was my savior.  I finally got clean in February 2013 and still am opiate free. But along with emotions and feelings returning came horniness. Fact - opiates kill your sex drive and the last time i had sex was in October 2007. With my ex. I guess I lost my game cause I couldn't meet girls so I turned to the pros. There you go.

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Five months ago, at age 43, decided that maybe my sexual desires would be best fulfilled by a professional, I contacted a young woman who was advertising here in the SF Bay Area.  It was a fantastic experience and since then I have had the pleasure of intimate, sexual encounters with a variety of providers.  I intend to continue doing so.

Simple as that

Graduated Columbia University became a teacher and hated it. To this day haven't been disrespected like with the Board Of Ed. One thing led to another and here I am. Not that this doesn't have its troubles but this become a fun and exciting lifestyle. Yeah all the money spent in college....but it could have been worse.

So you accommodate sexy teacher/naughty student scenarios???

Of course. I'm the queen of role-play. Spending time teaching makes you master that for sure. lol

Lol, I feel ya brother, USMC!

It was six years ago when I came home from my 1st deployment to Afghanistan and 4th deployment in total. I'm in a Marine Corp infantryman and had almost no contact with home for 7 months. I had been dreaming of the reunion with my wife the whole time and couldn't wait to see her. When I arrived back in California she wasn't there, my kids weren't there, and nothing I owned was there. I later found out that she had moved to Arizona with a guy she met in a bar. They had both been living off my paycheck for months. Needless to say we were divorced in short order.  

After a couple months the had wasn't enough anymore and I needed to be with a woman. I had no idea how the hobby worked and had not yet found TER. I started off with the BP girls and that's pretty much what I did about one a month since. I only stopped when I had a GF but I always screwed that uo pretty quickly because I couldn't get past the mistrust instilled by my ex.  

About a year ago I found TER but didn't pay much attention to it because you cant really use it without a VIP membership. More recently I started writing reviews just to see what there was on the site that was blocked, this was the beginning of the end of my career as a hobbyist. Shortly before I posted the review that granted me VIP I had been ripped off by a BP girl, I was tired of the fake pictures, ugly dirty women, questionable hotels and all the other downfalls of the lowend girls. Then I gained my TER access and discovered that there were good ones out there that weren't $1k/hr. I was browsing because of boredom last week and saw one that I couldn't help but contact. I went through my first screening and made the appointment. I showed up a couple days later for my session and she was perfect, exactly my type, the most beautiful, perfect woman I had ever been with. She was sweet, kind and attentive and I was all about me. The experience was to much for me, I  haven't stopped thinking about her since, and I have to remind myself that for her it was all about money and the GFE was what I paid for so I don't call or text to say hi or ask her out.  

I started doing this year's ago to fill a need and it worked well until I couldn't stand the druggies and the disappointment anymore and decided to upgrade to a better experience. The girl I saw the other day unknowingly filled a need I didn't think I had anymore. I've never done to have a list of beautiful women I've fucked or because I was bored with my wife, or any other reason than the need to feel a woman once in a while. I can't go back to  BP and I now know that the GFE experience is to much emotionally for a lonely war weary Marine, so I'm done, I realize I wasn't cut out for this game and I can't do it anymore.  

Be safe and have fun gentleman, be good to the ladies. It was fun while it lasted.

At first when i was younger, around 18 through 20, we would go on deployments.  All kinds of ports, Rota, Barcelona, etc some of my friends would go to these whore houses.  i thought it was lame and taboo.  My second deployment I relaxed my rigid standards a bit.  Visited a couple of these places and saw some of the most gorgeous women you could ever lay eyes on.  It was nothing to walk into a bar and see a latina in a sling shot bikini and think oh my god, look at those curves.  Fast forward to 2006, I got stationed out in California.  I have never been the type to not be able to have a female or two (non-professional).  But somehow, someway I stumbled upon CL back when they advertised escorts.  It was pure then, there was no bait and switch.  If the girl posted a picture then you can rest assure that thats the girl you would see once you got to her location or she came to you.  I didn't know the terms then Incall vs outcall.  But it got to a point where I was making time to go see these girls whenever I could.  I had girlfriends, and there was never a time when i went without options of vajayjay.  But it was something about the thrill of the chase so to speak.  Being able to have your option of body type, nationality, services etc.  That lead to wanting more, more sites, expanding options, swinger clubs, sex shops etc.  Pretty soon myself and a couple of buddies would be going across the border to Tijuana, and if it wasn't something to my liking in San Diego, Los Angeles and Orange County were just a hop, skip and a jump right up the road.  This hobby is addicting to say the least, but I have had a blast over the last 8 years!

I was sitting at a bar with a friend.  We had both come into some extra cash through our businesses.  He related that he had visited a provider in O-town and she was gorgeous and performed GFE very well.  A couple more drinks and we had a bet on who could find the best provider in O-town.  After two months we would tell the other who they had seen that was the best.  We  then would go see the other guy's "best".  Meet up again and decide who won.  

Both of us saw about 6 gals each - one unbeknownst to us - we had both seen, but wasn't our top choice.  We both admitted that it was hard to decide who was ultimately our favorite.  We exchanged names of our favorites and visited them the next week.

Lucky me! My choice was the winner, but it was close, my friend finally conceded.   Both gals ended up being my ATFs until they got out of the bizz.  Ironically I ended up seeing his choice many times and we became friends on and off the clock.

After spending so much time with these two gals it became difficult to settle for anything less after they retired.  I did meet some very talented and personally nice women.

Happy hunting guys

I found out about TER in a Playboy article titled "The Girlfriend Experience" in 2007, (I think).  Nikki Avalon talked about her life as an escort, and Playboy talked about this website called TER, where you could read escort reviews and participate in the hobby.  I struggled with the idea of making a date with an escort for a while, and finally took the plunge.  My first time, I was very nervous and did not have an ideal experience, but it was good enough that I was hooked.   In my family, my father was known to engage in some extramarital activity.  His mother, (my church going grandmother) for many years, had a sugar daddy, until he became ill and eventually died of old age.   I think that the desire for multiple partners is definitely in my blood.  A few months after my first time, I thought a bit more about the type of lady that I really wanted to see, and made another date.  The second time was much, much better, and I continued to hobby as much as free time and finances would allow.  I have written a few reviews on TER, and would have written quite a few more, except for repeating many times with two of the ladies  I really clicked with.  I quit the escort scene for a few years and tried the swinger scene.  This was satisfying for a few months, but was very hit and miss depending on who showed up at various parties.  I really enjoyed parties with a small group of swingers with some younger ladies in it, but it broke up a year ago. Another group that I partied with became hard for me to deal with due to very aggressive, pushy and rude younger men who began attending in large numbers.  Senior men became unwelcome.  I find that an hour or so with a sexy, energetic young woman gives me more pleasure than I have ever felt before.  For days after, the world is a much better place, and I look forward to the next encounter.  Dating escorts makes my sex dreams come true, since I am able to be with women who I only fantasized about for many years.  You only live once, and I don't want to miss out on this particular pleasure while I am still young and able enough to enjoy it.

Not that married life is bad, but I guess that some of us still dream and fantasize about that special sexual experience.
I found the hobby a better way to explore that than the affair route, which has its own issues. I've had a few incredible experiences, some so-so but I think this is a healthy way in a sense to explore that.  
Maybe not original, but that's my story.
I started with AMPs (first time was just a HJ) and then a girl who called herself Marie's Park Avenue .. neither was great but it woke up the dream.

I was 16 years old boy and one of the female middle-aged chaperones on the high school field trip grabbed my thigh and winked at me during dinner one night. She passed me the rolls and asked "Wanna roll?" I knew exactly what she meant. I let her suck my dick later in exchange for a bottle of wine.

In college I realized that I could hang out outside the porn shop basement booths. When guys met my eye, we could go into a booth and I could suck them and they would guiltily give me money. I didn't even need to ask most of the time.

Then years later I was married and a successful professional and one day I was bored and called my first escort. I had hung out with strippers and such a lot but never hired anyone. I don't even know why I was calling her. I was newly married to a very horny beautiful woman and happy. The girl showed up and because I wasn't even really planning ahead I only had twelve dollars and a coupon for Cheerios cereal. I showed her the almost empty wallet expecting her to leave but she said she's stay and I could keep the coupon. I thought... Well that was easy and convenient! But it wasn't really my thing. But it stuck in my mind.

I never really thought about anything like that again for years until a high-end escort in the town I had just moved to contacted me to ask for web site advice. I am not a web designer, but she liked my site that I did for my job. She offered to work something out. I never took her up on the offer, but we chatted and stuff.

After that every once in a while when bored on a trip or something I would call someone. It was sort of fun to meet someone new. Sort of interesting.  

Then I fell in love with someone I originally hired. And there was a series of crazy adventures. And I tried basically every debauched thing you can imagine, in several countries. Wow. Some crazy adventures. Eventually I got bored of all that and quit. There's only so many twists on the same old theme and things you can have jammed up your butt.

So then I went another few years until recently. I am happily married, but for medical reasons my wife cannot have sex. She gives a great BJ, but once in a while I just like to fully scratch that itch, if you know what I mean. My wife knows about the ex-love and some of the adventures, but she doesn't know I have hired anyone since then. She would probably be OK with it except for that love. She is afraid I'll click with another someone younger and beautiful and fun and energetic. And I might. But my wife is and always will be my best friend. I'll love her forever, no doubt, even if I do enjoy a few romps with others in the mean time

Nearly exactly my story

-- Modified on 11/8/2015 7:04:26 PM

i feel so fortunate to be in hobby i had girl friend who had great hours money clothes and no apparent job i asked her how she did this and she exlained  i loved sex anyway thought i should make living doing what i wanted to do i took an overflow from her and been at it and love it

I knew there was something. I taught 7th to 9th grade for a few years. Hormonal teens are a nightmare.

My wife stopped wanting sex. We got along fine in every other area but she had no desire for sexual intimacy. She said we had a great relationship without it. Despite my requests, she wasn't interested in making herself available to me unless she wanted it too and she rarely, if ever, did. Eventually I stopped asking for it. After several years I decided to try an escort that I found on backpage. I was terrified; I just knew I was going to get arrested. My first experience was laughable. We talked for an hour and I declined sex. A week or two later I went back to the same lady and consummated the deal. It was okay, but not great. I later found TER and began reading about the type of encounter I wanted to have (GFE). My research paid off. After that...well...you get the idea.
