Eros, combined with TER Reviews, this board, and Google.  I have not joined TS dating sites but my buddy did and they all end up asking for roses. So, you might as well not beat around the bush and just realize that most ts girls work.

Also most guys on dating site are looking for sex, thats how the girls start to ask for roses, they are not really into relationship, but sex talk all the time. I have tried that before, but guys constantly ask for sex and hook up which I was not there for it. You may try eharmony....LOL

Not a member any more but met a few cute TG's on there who weren't working over the years.

I met a TS gal on adultfriendfinder that I dated for awhile.  Takes a lot of weeding out of fakes, and also as the dog said most end up wanting a donation if they are real.  Also if you are in a big city like NY or LA you can occasionally have some luck at the TS nights at clubs.  It is the same story most of them are working but if you're decent looking and can talk, you can occasionally have some luck.  But still most end up wanting a donation.

I have met some on AFF who had regular jobs and have never been escorts.  They were a nurse, paralegal and a financial manager.  If you only go to clubs where donation girls hang out that's who you're going to meet and regular girls would never go there and be mistaken for escorts anyway.  Go to a pageant or community event and meet women with careers.   I just met someone new through a work function.  They're out there, you just have to look carefully.
