bummed by some replies. feel ok by others. i have been reading your posts and know your struggles you have shared. depends if you are talking one nighters (luck) or more. if more, we are older now, dont do the games like some suggest. do not believe all or even most women are about money. just not true. how you go into this, is what you will get out of it.

lots of lonely of both genders out there looking for different reasons.

but... i like your progression the last handful of months. be confident and have fun.
