When are you willing to hire again?

[myophile]

I’ve been in weekly text contact with my regular guy, and after a fair amount of discussion we met up last weekend. I was more than ready to see him after nine weeks of abstinence, and as for him—well, I’ll just say that, between his pent-up horniness and mine, it was epic. Here’s what I texted him afterwards: “I really appreciated your doing that session today. It might have felt weird or freaky given all the COVID shit, but instead it felt like two friends catching up over a beer--aside from the mind-blowing orgasms, of course, and the fact that there was no beer ... Anyway, you sort of re-set my brain from disaster mode back to normal, at least for a little while; and I love you for that, man, and for much else!“

I think mid-June for me.

It’s wait and see for me. Much as I want to get my brains fucked out by a smoking hot hairy-chested big-dicked kissing machine, I’m not comfortable with getting that intimate with anyone just yet. I mean, I’m still wearing a mask to go outside, FFS.

[MikeBiDude]

I’m *beginning* to discuss it with a couple friends. I’m suggesting taking temperatures and perhaps wearing masks. Yes, not kissing is usually a “deal breaker” for me, but looks like that’s one thing I’ll have to sacrifice and on hold off on for a bit. And maybe that’s ok ??‍♂️

That’s reasonable. It depends on your comfort level. I only wear an N95 in stores. I bike, walk and run without a mask; however, I generally do these things early in the morning when few are around. I think it’s important to get outside, get some UV and fresh air, and challenge the immune system a bit. Now (of course it’s always changing) it’s believed that the virus doesn’t spread as readily outdoors.

monday or tuesday

I met with my regular on Friday. It was a great time. Would likely do it again, though probably only with my trusted regulars.

When you get your stimulus check and you want to stimulate somebody, it’s quite difficult to resist the urge.

True. Such a decision is just not that stimple...um, simple.

Corona virus caused by Corona beer because it is glass bottle? ???? This lady is a hoot!

[+ keroscenefire]

This is a long story and I need to ask everybody's advice. I got sick twice this year with cold and flu symptoms. I am older and it is VERY rare for me to catch a cold. I had the flu shot last October and assume I couldn't get flu.

 

The first time I got sick was in late February. I had a meeting with someone at work that had just come back from overseas travel, and changed planes at the Tokyo airport. This person was sick when I met them with cough and fever. I got a cough and fever a few days later, it lasted a week, I didn't think much about it at the time and did NOT seek out testing. I also got a cough and fever in mid-March, I think from someone I know at a local gym. Same thing, I did NOT get testing since I never got more than a mild cough and maybe one fever chill.

 

The antibody test just came out in the area where I live. I was thinking about getting it. There are pluses and minuses:

 

Plus - If positive I wouldn't be worried about catching it. I could do whatever I want in my personal life.

 

Minus -if positive I would be worried my employer could find out. I have no idea how the employer would react.

 

What should I do?

 

You should get it for your own information. Just remember that we don't know how long immunity lasts for COVID. It probably is not permanent as is the case with other coronaviruses but it probably lasts at least months if not a few years. However, remember that older people tend to produce a weaker immune response as well and everyone is going to be a bit different wit their immune reaction. So just understand that having COVID antibodies does not mean permanent immunity.

 

But I also agree that you are under no obligation to tell your employer.

Maybe we should just have sex outside? ?

I fully support this

Im ready to start hiring soon, and am currently scoping out escorts.

I’ll be ready to go in a couple of weeks. I, too, am doing my research now. Unfortunately, many providers get turned off and stop conversation the moment you mention “a few weeks”.

A general "in a few weeks" reads to most providers, even those whose are perfectly fine making plans in advance, as "Ill let you know, ill get back to you, etc".

99% of the time it never happens.

Try being a little bit more specific, even if still unsure.

Mention around the (beginning/middle/end) of the month rather than "in a few weeks"

Add by asking if they will be around in the venue city you are looking in during that time, and that you will touch base closer to set a specific day and time once your schedule becomes clearer.

It may seem like subtle differences and nuances, but it really makes a difference in an escort taking a client seriously and responding to in flux future plans and inquires.

Actually, my delay is medical. I’m waiting for a release. I have shared that a few times.

I greatly appreciate your response and explanation. It helps to hear from a true provider.

I love your website! Ever find yourself in Palm Springs??? ?

I see...and thanks!

Make my way to Palm Springs once a year for the forum gathering:)

Other than that its easy enough to coordinate something on the front or back end of my semi-monthly trip to the LA/Socal area.

As evidenced by my advice, I am quite comfortable with planning ahead.

Well, I guess for me, the answer was today......

 

have to re-break that ice sometimes......

 

it was a little awkward- no kissing (by mutual (mostly my) desire..... But I can go to bed tired and satisfied ?

I'm fairly resigned to the idea of no kissing for the near future, and not nearly as much body contact as I would want, etc. I have some specific body part fetish activities I'm assuming will be safe, and I'm thinking oral can be safe (if he's ok that I'm not masked during that, obviously, but hopefully he'd be willing to have a mask on) - but as of yet I haven't decided to commit to hiring anyone, and it might be some time yet. I have an eye on someone currently on RM, but...I don't want to contact him until I'm really ready to say yes. It's tough. (I'm also still debating if hiring is the best way to go, as I'm doing ok financially right now but don't want to overdo it...)

A question about kissing....

In short, does it matter?

 

If I’m in bed with someone doing the things that people do then we are well within the minimum distance such that simply talking (much less screaming someones name) would almost certainly spread the virus. What difference does kissing make ?

[Daverwr]

Kissing is a must for me. I can’t imagine being close to someone romantically and not just automatically kiss him. I don’t have that much self control. In fact, for me kissing is the primary act! And there is no way I’m wearing a mask. It’s hard enough to breathe through these, let alone when you’re hot and heavy!

You make a good point. I guess because in one sense, the more overt an activity is (in this case, directly and palpably exchanging saliva through kissing) the worse it seems in terms of transmission. Even though yes, just being close can be risky. I suppose that aside from masturbating together sitting 6 feet apart, anything would be a risk. I think we all have to decide for ourselves (and anyone we choose to be with) what risks we're willing to take. No one is saying these decisions are easy. This is also why I haven't committed to meeting up with anyone quite yet - I'm still weighing the options in terms of how much risk I feel is "acceptable," and haven't really decided what makes sense yet.

Yes.

This is absolutely 100% a personal decision everyone has to make. For me, kissing is such an important part of the experience that when I do hire again I’ll make sure we can kiss. I’ll continue solo until then.
