Is there such a thing as too much?

[rainman62]

There's obviously a wide variety of circumstances that would impact answering this question: limited availability due to being married, budget limitations, AMP talent ups & downs, etc...

But my question is, am I in the 'ballpark' of what most clients do around here? Specifically: My spa appointments are all accounted for with my entertainment money, budgeted after all bills are taken care of. I used to treat myself and go quarterly, but since the 're-opening' after the 2020 pandemic year, I've been enjoying the massages every other month now. Is that on par with the majority, or am I falling victim to a bad habit? To be clear, there's no activity going on here anymore at my residence, sooooo, just sayin...

I wouldn’t regard every other month a lot of visits.
Twice a month is probably average for me. I travel I95 a lot and depending on time. I’ve gone as often as 3 times a week.
Most but not all stops tend to be FS locations and I’m generally a good tipper.

Twice a week is too much..
Once a week or once every two weeks is standard.
Once a month is very little

My ability to engage in the hobby is always linked to having time in the day either after seeing business clients or between clients (if there is a shower available) and there being a (positively reviewed) provider in the area that I have traveled to. That means the frequency can be hit or miss. There have been times where opportunity allowed a couple of times in the same week. Other times there is no opportunity for several weeks (particularly as COVID has created more online meetings than face to face). I always see a massage as a treat to look forward to and enjoy in the moment. Often having a bit of a pause between opportunities actually makes that sense of having a treat even better.

Pretty much 1x per week, sometimes 1x every 2 weeks. It’s my addiction and I enjoy the massage as much as the rest of it most times.
I still enjoy the adrenaline that comes with the thrill of a new place or girl.

good topic, the answer......it depends. I have gone a couple of years of not participating in the hobby. I know, crazy....then coming back to partake a few times a week......then on the wagon for months......off the wagon, monthly, every other week. it depends...we only live once....
I am not young anymore, but not that old either to not participate in the sport.
Funny thing is that the sport has help me with keeping things interesting with bride of 25 years.....hobby is a business transaction with no strings attached and no drama....unlike having a side piece aka goombata. I have better times with my significant other after practicing our sport.
I think of it as.....I always enjoy my cheese slice.....but once in a while having a pepperoni slice is good.bc... when i go back to the cheese slice.....it taste better
my 2 cents.....
btw going on a solo business trip to southamerica next month......not on my dime.....plenty of opportunity to have different pizza.
I'll keep my fellow mongers updated.

I'm a righty .....

I've been told 1x per week is pretty standard regardless of higher income.

 

[MartyS]

Still cheaper then getting married.

 

[vman1970]

Everyone is different. Do what your comfortable with and what you require. No one should tell you what is standard or too much or not enough.

 

[BIGBOB62]

As long as you aren't hurting yourself financially, go whenever you want and don't read much into what everyone else does. Enjoy it. I go 2-3 times a week myself right now. Was 1 or so Times a week precovid, but for whatever reason it's too much fun now to pass up right now.

 

[Runnerman37]

I'm always amazed (and jealous) when I hear of someone going 2-3× a week. Isn't that in the neighborhood of 5 franklins a week, on average? 26 grand in a year? If you can afford it and it makes you happy, good for you!

I had a bad scare about 10 years ago where because of poor health I had severe issues having sex. V and the other pills were a terrible experience for me because of side effects, so it looked like i was going to have to just stop. Lost a ton of weight, started working out, and normal function returned. But my attitude now is i am going to enjoy it while i can. I dont track the money but its way more than that.

Primary limits are time and talent. Previously as regular as twice a week, now about twice a month is all I can muster. Allentown is a target-rich environment, a secondary market to NYC and PHL, with occasional flashes of brilliance.

 

[chunfun]

Twice a week is fine, if you can afford it. I did that for a short period, but that was when LV was target-rich with great staff at several spas. Think BSS, Chun, VIP and NDS. Aries in its heyday kept things VERY exciting. I felt most comfortable at once a week. Once a month is not enough. It depends on your appetite and your cashflow.

Every single financial and lifestyle situation is a bit different on down to how much each guys tips.

For me, I usually average about twice a month to my ATF and when I go, I tend to overtip so that there is no clock watching or limitations. I personally prefer fewer, more VIP experiences with providers who really excite me rather than more frequent, bargain basement experiences.

I'm married with a house full of older kids and my career keeps me very busy so that type of schedule works out best for me. Gives me another thing to look forward to and I make it a point to have a great time knowing that I won't be back for a little while.

I agree with this and i'm pretty much in the same boat. well stated

I also agree, like vman1970 just responded above.

I've increasing my frequency lately, was able to arrange the monthly, even try twice a month. But when I got greedy and tried to do a Sunday followed by a Saturday... I was actually noticing that on the second visit I had become a bit de-sensitized to the erotic touch, it wasn't all on the provider. Thus the session became mechanical, and once that enters the mindset it's tough to shake loose. Ended up just reverting back to a HE finish. I like and need the excitement of looking forward to that next one. Gonna be rolling it back from trying to conquer two in a week, I'm comfortable at the monthly/bi-monthly pace for now.
