I'm alone all the time, and 99% of the time I'm cool with it. It's just that 1% of the time that it really really sucks.

as MM said, if the price was right, yes. And if there was even light kissing involved it would be a double yes for me.

Maybe the ladies could offer rate plans, like a cell phone company. That way you could pay for what you think you will use in a month, then you would be charged overages if you go over. That way you and a couple buddies could get a "Family Plan", and if one goes over, but the others didn't use all their minutes you would still be covered ;)

OK, now the SNL skit from a couple of weeks ago makes more sense. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFPqNEHeca0

As someone who is still on the fence about who to see, or even if I want to see anyone, I can give you a little insight into my own issues (for lack of a better word) and why I might post a thread like that. I haven't, and probably won't as I've decided the only real way to make a decision is to contact the lady I choose directly and work things out. (or not, depending) A lot of you have touched on many of the reasons I would post one of those threads already, but I'll list them here. Maybe it will help let you know why some people need to ask questions. Nervousness - Being both new, as well as having low self esteem, I might ask who to see because I would want to make sure that whoever I see will make me feel comfortable and not feel judged. I might be hoping to find someone who was in the same boat who could give advice as to which SP they found would make me feel most comfortable. Having a good experience - As was pointed out by someone, I would want my first experience to be an enjoyable one, so I might be asking just to reassure myself that the lady(ies) I have picked out will be a good fit. Sometimes you can't get that from reviews. (especially if the review is written like a play-by-play of sexual positions with little else added in) Too many choices (this one wouldn't be for me yet, due to geographical location) - I can see how someone might be overwhelmed with choices. Every woman here on CERB is beautiful, but maybe someone might be looking to narrow things down a bit, maybe looking for a bit more insight into the lady's character in order to make a short list based on what they are looking for. (If I could do it, I would spend time with every lady on here :) ) Bait and switch / horror stories - Until I started finding sites like CERB I never really thought about this possibility, but now that I am aware of it I am a little more leery of things. Some guys might be looking for reassurance that the lady they have picked is going to be who they think they are. Not enough time to do the research - Not really an excuse, but if someone is traveling they might try to do some research on their own, but in the end might decide it is easier just to ask others. I can't see this being an issue for me personally, as all my traveling is planned well in advance, but you never know, it might happen some time that I will have to take an unexpected trip and decide I would like to see a lady while there. These are some of my main concerns, and why I might ask advice on who to see. However having said that I am of the opinion that the best way to narrow things down is to look at the lady's posts if possible, website as well, and if things look good from that aspect, contact the lady herself. I think those are really the only way to make an informed decision. (and even that isn't infallible)

Well, since I've never actually seen an SP I can't really answer your poll. However, a while ago I mentioned in a post that I enjoyed coming to this forum because of the participation by the ladies and the insight I get into both the lifestyle and their personalities/motivations etc. The responses so far in this thread from the ladies has reinforced that again for me. I like reading that a lot of the SP's and MA's truly enjoy what they do, and that this lifestyle has/is affording them the freedoms to pursue the goals/lifestyles etc. that they want. It also speaks to how truly special these ladies are that they can be fulfilled knowing they are providing happiness to someone else. I hope you all can achieve what you are striving for. Hopefully some day I will get a chance to meet some of you. (Won't be for a while due to geographical/financial reasons, but that's getting better) All I ask is that none of you retire until I can meet you ;) p.s sorry this post may not make a lot of sense, I can't seem to find the right words for some reason p.p.s. I also don't mean for this to be a suck-up type of post, it's just that for some reason the responses struck me, and I wanted to express that

Any list of horror movies without the Exorcist is incomplete for me. I watch them all every Halloween (even though the only really good one is the first) If time permits I add in the first Omen movie (the original) and The Changeling (the original with George C Scott) I watch horror movies all the time, I freaking love them! There's very few that actually scare me, and a lot don't have great stories, but I watch most of them anyway. You never know when you'll stumble on a great one.

Seems I am in the minority (at least as far as the posts go) but I am very unhappy. However, having said that, I have reached a point in my life where lately I have been re-examining everything I have done up to this point. It's funny that this thread has popped up when it did, because I was actually toying with the idea of posting on here asking for advice, mainly because there seems to be a lot of people on here willing to help people out on a variety of subjects. I just hadn't made up my mind to do it yet. Lately I have actually been doing a lot of soul searching, crying, self-analysis, more crying, reflecting, reminiscing, and just generally trying to figure out what went wrong to get me to where I am now. I've come to realize that what went wrong was simply me. More specifically the choices I have made, most of which have not been good ones. I have done things that I thought would make me happier, when in fact they just made things worse. I realize that I am often too impulsive when it comes to making decisions, and tend to jump too quickly before getting all the facts. I also am too trusting though and have made decisions based on promises, only to have the person making them not live up to their end of the agreement, causing me stress and worry, and further adding to the unhappiness. (like my present situation) I also found that as things got worse, so has my self esteem. I cannot motivate myself to do anything to better my health for example, because (and this is something I've only just realized, and may sound overly melodramatic) somewhere along the line I think I've subconsciously decided I no longer want to live. I also seemingly have no purpose in life, at least in my mind. Not that I am actively going to go out and kill myself, but I seem to deliberately do things that will put me at great risk for heart attacks, strokes, etc. I am considered morbidly obese, and do nothing to lose weight, even though I keep telling myself I will. I have been diagnosed as a borderline diabetic, and am supposed to watch my diet, exercise and monitor my blood sugar, yet I do none of these. I started to when I was first told, but it lasted maybe a month. I even went out and bought a mountain bike, which I ride occasionally, but nowhere near regularly. I completely lack discipline in my personal life, yet in my professional life I am completely the opposite. Haven't figured out why that is yet though. Add to this the fact that I have struggled with depression for years without knowing what it was, and looking back I can see how my depression has influenced a lot of my decisions. I did have a prescription for an anti-depressant that actually worked for me, after a lot of trial and error, but since my doctor moved away I can't seem to find one that will renew my prescription. Seems a lot of the newer doctors don't seem to believe in them, or are overly cautious about prescribing them. Also add in that I am shy and reserved by nature, so don't connect with a lot of people. Funny thing is I talk to hundreds of people in a day for my work, and get along fine, but when it comes to my personal life forget it. This is actually how I found CERB. I know I need human contact, and started thinking that if I found an SP or two it might help me out in that way. So now that I've posted all this negative stuff, I will end this on a positive note; now that I am coming to understand that my life is exactly the way I made it, I'm pretty sure that going forward I will now look at things in a different light. Hopefully it will translate into better decisions, as well as a renewed way of looking at myself and how I feel about myself. I know it is going to take a lot of hard work, but I think the biggest thing is just getting out of some bad thought patterns, which now that I see them I can hopefully change them. p.s. sorry for the negative rambling. I didn't post this to get anyone's sympathy or anything, in fact still not sure I should be posting this at all, but since MBR asked.....)

What wedding would be complete without someone giving a toaster? Congrats! (actually I kinda want one of these now :) )

managed to pick up my dream truck last year - But my dream car will have to wait until I win the lottery, then find someone willing to give it up - 1948 Tucker Torpedo, way ahead of it's time

I visit the "Theatre of the Mind" every time I look through the ladies' albums here on CERB. Always entertaining, and never a bad performance! (at least on the female lead(s) side, reviews for the male lead are probably mixed at best ;) )

I don't know if people are actually getting more cruel, or more callous or jaded than they were before, but the fact that we can see cruelty from anywhere around the globe now almost instantly, coupled with the fact that there are so many outlets to see this kind of thing makes it seem that people are way worse than other generations that came before. Before the advent of television and film, and definitely the internet, as well as the time it used to take to travel to distant lands people hardly ever heard of the things going on in these other places, and vice versa, as news was scarce. Also the fact that there are so many more people in the world now means that even though the percentage of cruel/bad people may not be any higher than it ever was, there are probably more of them out there just based on the numbers. I do believe though that we have been a bit desensitized to a lot of things because of the amount of things we've seen and read, because this sort of thing is everywhere, even if you deliberately try not to see or read anything of a cruel or bad nature. It's almost inescapable. (sorry, hope that makes sense, been working since 3 am this morning, I'm not exactly on top of my game right now :) )

Finally saw one of these I thought was kind of funny (apologies if it's already in here)

Sorry, couldn't resist! Poor Eva is going to get a complex (or a restraining order) if I keep posting her pic in all these threads!

That's pretty much exactly what I thought it was, since I saw some of the tweets my co-worker was getting when it first came out. Hence I have never bothered with it, and pretty much turned my nose up at it. Of course I had the same idea about Facebook, and resisted until a bunch of my relatives kept hounding me to sign up. I have had to delete contacts off there due to their stupid status updates every 30 seconds, but even though I rarely log in to facebook I have found I can follow my favorite bands, old friends, and relatives on there and pretty much keep the crap to a minimum. Sounds like twitter can be set up the same way. I may look into it.

I can't believe I missed this thread! To me a woman's smile turns me on as much as anything else. And I also can't believe this picture hasn't been posted in here: From one of EvaAdore's albums, absolutely my favorite pic on CERB. This smile just captivated me the first time I saw this pic. *sigh* if only I didn't live so far away I might get to see it in person

Mine would be really easy to edit, since my list is at zero :)

Glad you bumped this thread mister t, interesting article, and sums me up perfectly. Especially the line "the only thing introverts hate more than talking about themselves is repeating themselves". In truth, almost nothing pisses me off more than repeating myself. I take great offense to it actually. Its like "I hardly ever talk, so the least you can do when I do say something is listen. Especially if you've asked me a question." I believe there is a special place in hell waiting for anyone who asks me a question then doesn't have the common courtesy to pay attention to me when I answer them :)

Been down in the dumps for a few months now, since I accepted a transfer with my company based on a bunch of promises they haven't delivered on, but today I was contacted out of the blue and offered a new job by someone I have worked for in the past, who has been looking for me for a couple of months and holding this job for me until he could track me down.

I love it when the old-timers talk about the 'good old days'! ;) Since I joined, every time I looked at the shout box all it was was ads, usually several by the same person, so I hid it. On other forums I've been on that had something similar it was always used for either announcements or some sort of banter between people, but I guess cerb is unique in that there are members that can post ads, which is different from other forums I've been on. As was said though, it is what you make it, so if people start posting other things in there it can get back to being less about ads and more about interaction, if that's how people want it. For myself, it could be an alternative to the chat room if it became a little more interactive, as I mainly use either my tablet or phone for internet, both of which are Android devices which means the chat room doesn't work for me, so it would be cool if that happened.

Didn't read through all of these, so sorry if they've been done: Analconda 30 days of anal The lion, the witch, and the anal (not sure if the movie is called this or just the book) Three men and an anus The towering anus Have anus will travel (sounds like an ad for an SP who offers Greek outcalls :) ) Team America: anal police I could do this all night! Additional Comments: How about some tv shows? The anal files (the truth is in there?) Welcome back anal The anal whisperer Just anal me The (A)nal team Charlie's anals Saturday night anal I can't stop! Somebody help me!

Only reason I could think of why someone would ask you that, especially if they are smirking is that maybe they thought you were faking it, and going over the top with it to make them feel more 'manly'. Like has been said, there are a lot of women out there that either are very quiet or don't orgasm at all, so maybe they never experienced a woman who has an intense orgasm, and they may have not understood that they actually had done what they were supposed to. But I also lean towards the 'most men have no clue what to say or do, ever' theory. :) Now I'm off to check flights and hotels, that description in your first post makes me want to come for a visit ;)

Yes its unfortunate in this day and age that people can't just take a compliment without thinking you're only giving it because you want something from them. As has been said its a bit of a lost art, as most people are so afraid to give them for fear of coming off either insincere or creepy precisely because people don't know how to take them anymore. Media, and society in general have been tearing people down for so long in order to make us feel bad about ourselves that when someone says something nice about someone else they automatically think there has to be an ulterior motive. They become uncomfortable, so they dismiss it with an offhand comment, or ignore it altogether, or in some cases become a bit hostile thinking you must be making fun of them or whatever. Sure there are still some people who understand that a compliment can be just a compliment and will thank you, but unfortunately there aren't as many people like that as there used to be. That being said though, maybe if everyone who is reading this thread began to compliment at least one person a day we could turn it all around! Viva la Revolutione!
