First you craet the new folder. In the list of PMs check the box next to the message, and at the bottom select go to move the message to the new folder. This will open a new window where you select the folder you want to move it too. Click on the move items and you're done.

Now and then I like to stop by one of the chip trucks for a feed of poutine. It's kind of a hit on the cholesterol but as long as it's not too often, what the hell.

Hey Sophie, aren't we all, LOL

If it's just a need to relax for a few hours, I like to turn off the radio , tv etc. and sit in an easy chair in total silence and do a little light reading.

I use Priceline and Hotwire quite often, and find I've got my best deals through Priceline. There is a bit of a learning curve to get the best deals. You have to be able to plan ahead and bid several days in a row, as you can't just increase the bid repeatedly without changing the parameters of the bid on that day i.e. area or star rating for example. The other thing is that the bid is in US dollars on Priceline, so I maintain a $US credit card for payments. So, there are some great deals out there. The other thing is that you do have to use your true identity and a credit card, and this is a problem for some of the guys.

You might want to give Katherine a try.

I don't want to get into a list or try to indicate a structure to a massage like this. What you describe is close to what is usually offered by CMJ or Angies spas and some of the more expensive independants. So I will make several observations. The term GFE massage has only been around for maybe the last year or so, and my guess is that was a way for a lady to market herself by possibly offering a little more mileage than had previously been generally understood as an MA session. The goal posts seem to continually move. Two things that you list were not normally offered, kissing and a varied release menu (usually a hand release was the standard). I don't think kissing is offered too often, but definitely more options for the release seem to be happening including full service. Possibly your best bet is to hire an SP who has a reputation for a good massage, as I don't think you'll be spending any more as it works out.

I don't know what email client you're using, if it is email. I use Thunderbird, and it's as simple as creating a folder, and then selecting the email in question, holding down the left button and dragging it to the new folder. Done.

I think if you had seen her you would realize that based on her limited English that someone else is writing her ads. I doubt that she is fully aware of the content. Nice lady, good massage.

I have take issue here. That said I have no problem with your preferences and trying to fulfill them. Different strokes for different folks. Where I do differ is that you state that members should self censor based on the subject line. Most people here are pretty broad minded and are inquisitive, and look at all the threads. As for Dorinda's comment about her personal opinion, I don't see it as you do as an assault on the policy of don't say anything negative. She's just saying that as a provider she doesn't feel comfortable with providing this service, and to be honest I don't think she has any reason to apologize. These threads don't stay as narrowly focused as you would want, they do tend to wander about the subject, so chill and let people express their opinions.

Well I gotta say no. I think a thread like this gives a distorted view as I would guess that it would be distorted as the ones that do will be more likely to respond. What would be interesting would be to get the ladies to report on the proportion of men they see who are manscaped, but of course this isn't a survey. As far as being a question of hygiene, you either keep yourself clean or you don't. It would be a rare time that I don't shower just before setting out for a play date. You are either hygienic or not, there's no more or less. As far as the women, I am one of the minority that like and am comfortable with a naturally endowed woman. If she takes care she is probably just as clean as any other lady.

There's a pretty good write up on this in the Globe this week. See the following URL. http://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/national/maritimers-soon-to-be-stranded-as-inter-city-bus-routes-to-close-in-fall/article4467955/

You have a very similar profile to me. Welcome to the board. Stay active and get known, and maybe we'll see you at the upcoming social in September.

I've had this laptop for about four years, and it's got to the point of being rather flakey and slow. Took the plunge and did a recovery, and am now back to a virgin operating system. Still a way to go to reinstall a bunch of software and get it back to a good configuration. Nice to have it operating properly again

I use Notepad which under the and Microsoft Accessories, it's simple and saves as a txt file with little formatting. It's a simple cut/paste and you can do the spell check when you paste into the PM.

I have had the experience a number of times and the effect is quite pleasant and arousing. I would suggest you look for an experienced MA who knows what she's doing. As Peachy pointed out there are some risks (being scratch when not wearing a glove), and being disappointed if she doesn't know what she's doing. I once actually had an regular SP who I knew well and wanted to learn, and at the end of a session we took some time to experiment, but under my supervision, positioning, cleaning properly and using lube. That's always an option, you can always learn together. I would second Skinflute's recommendation for Pauline.

Congratulations Sophia. I think the the really positive thing about this story is your willingness to share. I think there are many hard working women who struggle in this business and could use your example and smarts to improve their situation. A little knowledge goes a long way.

I have on occasion been trusted with personal information by a few ladies, and simply because we have become friends and this trust extends in both direction. They trust my judgement, and realize that I would not compromise them, or embarrass them should we meet in public. I'm not sure I would agree with some of the rigid pronunciations in this thread, e.g. sacred trust. I do believe in the duty to protect anonymity, but this is a people business, and sometimes individuals make choices on occasion which are exceptions to the generally accepted rules. I think the last comment shows a bit of paranoia, in that I believe the PM system is a secure way to communicate. Probably the only person that has total access to see them might be Mod with system administrator rights, and I for one don't think he would abuse that responsibility, unless there is real criminal content. We're pretty small fish and I don't see anyone hacking my PMs, they really are pretty boring and really there's no incentive to waste time on them.

I am curious about this member status designation. The reason I ask is that I've seen three members with this designation posting on active threads. From this I would assume that they can lurk and post. I understand new members must have five posts before they are approved., and this wasn't the case here. I guess the big question is can they send and RECEIVE PM's , and if so why are they designated as inactive.

Good for you Sophia. I just want to make a comment from someone on the other side of the fence. I am just north of sixty five and have a perspective of a parent whose got two adult children. I know that as I age that I will probably need help, and that my children have already made overtures that they will be there to help when I have the need. The problem for me is that I may not want them to make the necessary sacrifices when that time comes. I don't really have a crystal ball but it will be a real dilemma when the time arises. Years ago your children were your care and security blanket in old age, but today with the new realities of smaller nuclear families dispersed over long distances this model has kinda broken down. It really does look good on you, to take on that responsibility. Good luck and I hope it works out well for both you and your dad.

I would agree with the foregoing replies about harassment and the police. The one thing I would suggest is that she saves all the emails she has received and maintain some sort of a log concerning his activities. When she does come to the conclusion that the police are the best option she will have the evidence that the cops can use to put the pressure on this guy. The other reason the police are a good bet is that they may already have some history on the guy and this may be the extra complaint that helps them get him. It's quite possible that he's hit on more than just you, so you are doing a good turn for any other of his victims.

Fifteen minutes doesn't do it for me, and to be honest I like more than 30 minutes unless I'm unusually randy and want to get off without the usual expense. I would suggest you say sure and then quote them the half hour rate. If there wasn't a differential they wouldn't be making the request.

This is a decision you obviously must make for yourself, and if I'm not mistaken you've already worked for an agency before. I think probably it's a matter of weighing the pros and cons. I can't remember the last time I used an agency, probably as I think the dollar I spend should go to the girl in question, and she can use it to cover her expenses in the manner she decides. I think most of the guys are on here regularly would favour independents as they have the resources to do some research in making their choice. As for the pro, definitely you can reach a broader market, and when times are slow that's important, and as you say they take care of the routine tasks. They reach quite a few guys that aren't plugged in. As a con, it would seem to me that you loose the ability to screen the clients to the standards you do today. If the agency is not as diligent in this part of the job, you may see clients that you wouldn't otherwise. Now and then they might send you a bad client.

It's a bitch sometimes cooking for one. Tonight it's pretty simple, got a nice salmon steak, and the first corn of the season. I'm sure I can find a nice glace of wine around here to go with it.

I had another though after my first post. You have to decide where you're going to meet. I would like the lady to come to my place where I can have a little more control over how I can entertain her. I think it's really important to know her first so that she may have already been for a visit or feels she trusts me enough to agree to this arrangement. If you don't already have that relationship she doesn't have an exit strategy. I also don't invite women over until I feel I've got a good rapport with her and feel I can invite them into my personal space.
