Good observation, civies come with baggage too, I reckon myself an all in monger at this moment. I’ll give this as an example. Many of us are NFL fans, there are guys that only watch football on Sunday, some guys actually purchase tickets and attend an occasional home game, a bit more investment. Then you have the guys that purchase season tickets, much more investment incurred obviously. All are fans yet some invest more money and time into it.
I too am a season ticket holder when it comes to the AMP industry. I don’t liken providers less than other women, they’re all equal in my eyes, they just happen to work in AMPs. A civie takes a bit more time, effort and may not end with physical activity. With a provider there’s no mystery, activities are always a possibility. Someone may ask, why date a provider if not for sex? I enjoy their company regardless of their profession, they are human, I treat them as such.
