In the past, I was a giver, and I thought I was a good lover. It is only after the ladies of CERB taught me how to joyfully receive with all my being that I intuitively understood what a wonderful giver can be. That made me a much better lover, giving and receiving in a playful, sensual and passionate way, connected to my partner's ebb and flow. I am very grateful for that. :)

Most of what has been said already, plus: - Old wounds have been healed through the help and support of wonderful ladies. My heart and soul are happy and open. - My understanding of women has completely changed - My understanding of what women find attractive in me also has changed - I now can appreciate and enjoy more fully women's rich erotic universe - My own erotic palette has become richer, and can now adapt more easily to various women's sexual desires - Dating is now fun and exciting! Things I still have to improve: - Be a better communicator (verbally and non-verbally): convey in a warmer, friendlier and more concise manner my feelings, desires and values - Better at organizing dates lol. Keep it simple and smooth :)

A relaxed, friendly walking pattern, not too sexy, not too sporty, with a soft energy. A dancer maybe? A world traveler? We could share a passion. Curious eyes enjoying discovering the beautiful and interesting people and things around her. She values intelligence. That makes me at ease. A kind, gentle and joyful smile, when walking alone, when talking with strangers and friends alike. She's seems happy. I am intrigued. Grace under pressure when handling challenging and difficult situations. I am impressed. A bit quiet at first, she enjoys sharing her personality through her choice of clothing, jewelry, makeup and body art: red shoes, blue hair highlights, orange necklace, green eye shadow, violet tattoo, or black lipstick. (ah ah! Got you! You imagined the "Rainbow" girl before seeing the "or"... :) ) I want to to say hi! When I ask playfully her opinion about a good mystery book she read, her favorite gelato flavor, little known Michelangelo life stories she learned, or feedback on my new cool blues dancing moves... she becomes a bit shy. I am attracted. Walking besides each other, with her arm in mine, discovering together an intriguing part of the city, laughing at people... and at us..., saved from a jaywalk bylaw ticket by her graceful handling of the unfriendly officer, showing off her new steampunk short dress to the mesmerized kids in the street (including me!) while sharing a tiramisu gelato. Wow, this is someone I really want to get to know better.

Since it is somewhat difficult to remove the battery from an iPhone, you can either set your iPhone to Airplane mode when you need some privacy (preferably sometime before you arrive at your destination to prevent an astute adversary deducing where you are going...), or deactivate Find my iPhone (if someone else has your AppleId password), or, for the real geeks among you, you can wrap your phone in aluminum foil. Yes, it works, if not fashionable (no, I don't sport a tin foil on my head... :) ). Try calling your cell phone from another phone if you don't believe me :) (for the very nerdy: you are in fact creating what is called a Faraday cage around your phone).

Great topic Nat, as usual very thoughtful, thanks for helping make this corner of the internet one of a kind :) One aspect that is not talked about much here (excluding past references to superb documentaries such as The Sessions and Scarlet Road) is the astonishing therapeutic, learning and growing opportunities afforded by this community. With the help of many CERB ladies (and one in particular that will recognize herself :) ) I was able to transform myself from an extremely shy, ignorant, unskilled lover to a *badass* lover (ok, ok, maybe I wish that and I am simply a not too bad lover lol!). I have learned so much, about women, about myself, and I have gained confidence beyond my wildest dreams. I strive to share the best of myself in return. I still have much learning to do, but it is now *exciting* and *fun*, not stressful! This transformation would never have been possible if not for the ladies that chose this occupation, sharing their joy and vicissitudes, sensuality, patience, wisdom and support, with open hearts. I feel privileged. Maybe I am idealistic, but this really should be celebrated! So Nat, to answer your question, maybe you can say that some clients (at least one!), are thirsting to learn and improve themselves, as men, as friends to women, as lovers, and to discover women's mesmerizing erotic universe.

Happy Birthday Nat! Enjoy this beautiful day to celebrate YOU!

I, too, am shy. I find shyness in a woman to be sexy. Maybe because we can be relaxed around each other, open up and connect more easily. Maybe because I feel the hidden passion in her that tries to find the right person, the right environment to express itself. Can I become the key that unlock that passion? There is something magical about a shy woman. It's like: us against the world! This is incredibly sexy :)

Big hug to you Nat. As usual, wonderfully written. As a brainy introvert, my experience of loneliness echos many of those expressed so far. I have a big family and many friends, but I do most of the listening in my relationships. Sometime it is nice to be listened to! However, above and beyond being a listener, I found that shared experiences, even quiet ones, are good to create a bond and feel more connected. Watching the stars with friends, dancing, studying and teaching together, helping out, traveling together in a foreign land, lovemaking, all help to "understand" someone a bit more I feel, as we share not only the experiences but also the emotions created from them. In addition, as an ex-shy person, I was surprised to realize that as I learned to pro-actively connect with people in different ways and nurture different kinds of intimacy (CERB ladies are amazing teachers!), my general feeling of loneliness decreased very much, replaced by hope, self-confidence and joy.

oh boy... the fiery Annessa asking me on a date to drink an illegal and potentially deadly elixir... Should I accept? :roll: And since it is impossible to find Romulan Ale in Ontarion Prime territory, we will have to warp to the other side of the barrier... where we will find a similar elixir of questionable legality named Absinthe...

Totally cool indeed! Noticing Annessa's strong character here on this board, I would bet... Worf :)

Very funny video Annessa... now I know why it doesn't work out for me in the bars... I will stop using the "Romulan Ale" line! Well, maybe I will try that line on you some day dear trekkie :p

When in Gmail, click on the arrow right of "Reply" and select "Show Original". Then look for X-Originating-IP. Copy the IP address and paste in any web based reverse ip lookup site (e.g. http://remote.12dt.com/ ), or use nslookup in windows cmd shell.

I recommend the Australian show 'Satisfaction'. Don't let the high-class, glamorous aspect of it be a turn off: it is smart, sometimes funny, sometimes sad, with complex characters that feel real, deep in emotions and relationships. Very good acting too. http://www.showtime.com.au/series/satisfaction/
