And, as you can tell from several posts, you have some kindred spirits. Plus, you’ve gotten some sage advice from both sides. This was a great thread, my friend. Thanks for starting it.
I’m fairly new to this world, too, seeing my first provider a little over three months ago. I’m about your same age, and was also missing the intimate company of a woman. I thought I knew what I was looking for, but I had no idea what to expect. I just took a chance, and dove into the deep end of the pool.
All I can say is, “come on in, man, the waters fine!” You sound like you truly enjoy women, and see them as equal partners. If it’s true that you pretty much get out of this what you put into it, you’ll find what you’re looking for. And, maybe then some!!
After you’ve held her hand, looked in her eyes, snuggled with her, and felt that old feeling . . . the time will come when her eyes get a gleam in them, and she presses her body close to whisper a suggestion in your ear. You just go with it, and she’ll take you places you never even dreamed of!
By the way, I see you’ve wisely chosen the perfect handle just in case things don’t work out. Not-John-Smith. That way, no one can ever write you a Dear John letter.
Cheers
