Goodbye Hobby
- Thread starter Xander56
- Start date
I have a SO.. and this was the main reason why I quit.. not only did I realize I’m playing with fire here .. but I just kept thinking that if I did get caught I would lose half (and even more with kids) of what I worked hard for.. in addition, a reputation I have built with my career, friends and family..
It was really starting to bug me personally.. more than the financial strain (I do very well)… the thought of losing it all is what really made it easy for me to quit.. and I know some of you have tried .. and I hope this desire doesn’t kick in..
There are times when I’m driving past Edison and walking near areas in NY that I know have these spa and my spider senses of AMP radar has gone off the past couple of weeks but always kept this in my mind that helped me quit.. “don’t ever let a little bit of pink destroy everything you worked so hard for.”

I also want to let you all know.. this isn’t my first attempt of quitting .. I’ve been trying for the past ten years.. seriously !!!
I know it’s hard and back then I didn’t have much to lose but today I do..
I started to think, what if my wife finds out .. just imagine that .. you would be lying if you think you will be ok and just move on..
Then I ran into some hobbyists at bars and hearing their personal stories and how their life is in shambles and I thought damn.. I don’t want that to be me and I have it good..
Trust me gents, I had some mind blowing experiences and some terrible ones and I don’t judge anyone who enjoys this hobby because it’s really something else .. but if you are in my situation where you have a SO and a lot to lose .. really think about it.. you are dodging a bullet right now..
Good luck to those who are trying and I appreciate the support and PMs I got from a few of you.

not only do I completely get everything you say, I have all of the things to lose that you do, and worry about it all the time. Sometimes I get little panic attacks about things like "what if my car breaks down someplace where I cant explain to the wife why I was there?", Also, I have had a couple scares over the years, once where LE came into a place while I was in session and once where I was actually pulled over leaving a motel. Both episodes are good stories, maybe for another thread, but they ended ok, LE isnt typically interested in the men unless there are other things involved like drugs, guns or other crimes, or if its street walkers, but man, did I need a clean pair of undies when I got home!!
I have quit many times but in the end, I just love the look and feel of a pretty lady, its one of the greatest pleasures of the only life you'll ever get.
Quitting is the right decision and if you can do it, you are a much better man than I am.

Empathize. Will say that in edgewater so many of the places that a decade ago were not FS now are. And sometimes that fiscal difference is just too much if you are really going for the massage and the affordable extra. It’s made me rethink to the point I consciously went for my first legit spa massage in ages last night cuz the overall $70 cost was responsible spending
As others have written, I’ve tapered in and out over the years. International makes it interesting for me and is my preference, also had a side-civvie to mix it up. 2-3x a week would be way too much for me, 2-3x a month is more like it, but there are many levels to the hobby. The hobby will be here if you ever decide to return. It's good to press pause, when it feels mechanically, or you’re not really enjoying it anymore or learning anything new. It’s also good to mix it up. As some of the O.G.s from spahunters used to write, quality is more important than quantity. Good luck.
Good luck to you, quitting is definitely not easy but it’s also not impossible. When you can pick out a girl you want to get with as easy as a phone call it’s extremely addicting. The main plus of the hobby has always been variety, a new woman whenever you want A woman that never says no and someone who might not have normally given you a second glance in real life.They never call you or make you have to worry about them invading your personal life, and most times they’ll do what your significant other normally won’t do. The downsides to the hobby are arrest, public humiliation for yourself and family if your married, and the ever lingering consequence of an STD that you might bring home and destroy someone’s life with if your not careful while involved with the hobby. I’ve quit several times myself and have strayed like an alcoholic to an occasional drink. The price changes have made it a little easier to stay away from it, but the opportunity to be with certain women will always be a temptation that will never leave. Best of luck to you.
