Mr. The DC: I find your comments fascinating. And sad.

You wrote your posts around 2am last night. Perhaps you've been drinking. Or just angry about being alone (this time of year will do that to people). You have my sympathy if that is the case, sir.

I will agree with you that some of these stories are by men who aren't "owing their situation". And, some of these tales and fetishes shared are quite "dark", to say the least.

But the very first one, by the original poster who started this thread, shared his tale of rejection, depression, and coming to terms with the guilt that this "hobby" can bring to one's conscience. I am going to focus on that. As well as the good will that several members here shared with this young man to offer their "ears" to him if he should ever need one.

Yes, there are quite a few dishonest, scheming cheaters out there. But there are also quite a few smart, honest, respectable men here who frequent these women for a little conversation, intimacy, and "relief" (however you wish to define that). Some of these men here actually treat these women well - bringing them gifts, tipping them generously, and sometimes, due to their kindness and generosity, becoming friends (or at the very least, friendly) with them.

Out of these million stories I wish to "write" my own one in a positive and support way. Penning my tale with kindness, empathy, and respect.

I'm willing to offer my "ear" to you if you should ever wish to share your thoughts and feelings with me.

Wishing you a pleasant weekend,

Tony

Hey guys, I just wanted to share my story with you guys. Maybe there are other guys here that are on the same boat as me. I wanted to share with you guys why I started hobbying. And I would like to hear your stories as well. After you guys finish reading this, you’ll either know how I feel or make fun of me. Either response is ok with me and appreciated. Here’s my story:
On November 17, 2015 I almost took my own life.
I was in nursing school at the time. I was burnt out, I was depressed, I was tired, I wanted to die. Death was in my mind 24/7. I was going through ANOTHER REJECTION by a girl I had a crush on in church. She was the 1000000th girl (obviously I lost count) that has rejected me. I have been rejected for so many reasons: my weight, my looks, my financial status, my race (im Latino with yellow fever, so most girls I’ve crushed on were Asian), for being a nice guy, because i was too “young”, because they were already taken or they liked someone else, I just didn’t meet up to their standards. I became bulimic and tried to lose as much weight as I can so I can become attractive and get someone to like me, I became in better shape and felt more confident in myself...but even that didn’t work and I was still getting rejected or friendzoned. I could have been killed by cardiac arrest because of my unhealthy methods of losing weight.
All these rejections made me feel like I wasn’t good enough and that I would never find someone and be alone the rest of my life. This made me wanting to end my life. I was desperately trying to find painless ways to die. But unfortunately there is no painless way to go. My classmates and professors in nursing school knew something was wrong with me, so they called an ambulance and I was sent to the ER. That’s where I was diagnosed with bulimia, generalized anxiety disorder, and depression. I was referred to therapy and was prescribed medications.
During those past 4 years after my suicide attempt, I have been working on myself and working hard to where I am today....but I was still getting rejected. One rejection made me stop going to church and that made me eventually lose my faith in god. I was rejected again at my new school in this program where I was studying another career. The coolest women I have ever met turned me down after I asked her out on a date because I was too young for her. And most recently I stopped trying to meet up with a friend I had a crush on because it was obvious she was interested in someone else who lives in Canada....everytime me and her hang out, she would always be texting this guy. I even looked over at her phone and the conversation was about them planning to meet up. That’s when I decided to give up on her. Then I tried dating apps and it was a failure. The dumbest thing I did was pay money to use a dating app. Paying just to be rejected and ignored by those that I liked on the app. It came to a point where I just became tired. My mind was tired. My heart is tired. It made me decide to give up and I am scared to like someone again.
Today I am still fighting depression and generalized anxiety disorder. My depression is triggered when I see happy couples when I am out either on the streets, or on the subway for example. I have recovered from bulimia but I still have trouble enjoying food without feeling guilty. I am trying to get fit the right way by going to the gym, but I am doing it for myself and not for women. My body has become stronger and healthier. I graduated and I have a well paying job in a field where I feel confident and that I enjoy.
I am learning to love myself better and not give a fuck of what others think about me.
Am I happy? No. But am I ok? Meh.
The reason I wanted to share this is to show the psychological effects of rejection. I haven’t even had my first kiss.
Rejection and friendzoning is something that many joke about but never think about how painful it is for someone who has to go through it. It’s a horrible thing to go through.
People would call me thirsty...but there’s nothing wrong with desiring love and affection. It is a human need. We are not meant to live life alone.....BUT...loneliness and rejection lead me down a very dark path...and that’s hobbying. Last year when I met up with one of my closest bro’s who I haven’t seen in a long time to watch a World Cup game at a bar on Roosevelt, he asked me how things were going with the ladies...and I told him that I still have no luck. He told me that he knew places where...*you know* and if I wanted to go, that he’ll take me. I turned down the offer. One year later, my 26th birthday was coming up and I still had my v-card. The girl I like at the time (same girl mentioned before who had something going on with the Canadian guy), I was 100% she didn’t have her v-card, which wouldn’t be fair if I ever got with her. And it’s a fact that in this generation, many women my age don’t have their v-cards anymore...and I still did. It was unacceptable for me to be almost 26 and still have my v-card and I knew I was going no where with this girl. I was lonely and my Yellow Fever and manly needs weren’t being met. So I hit my bro up and I told him “let’s go, it’s time” he knew what I meant. He took me and I gave away my v-card at 83-33 (those who know Elmhurst know which place I’m taking about) to a provider named Lina. It was horrible because I didn’t last, and if I wanted another set of protection, I had to pay again. I went back again a few weeks later and met Angela. Me and Angela became very close and we talked a lot, she gave me her number, and we met up a couple more times. Angela left 8333 and did incall in flushing where I would meet her in some apartment, then she worked at a spa on Kissena where I saw her for the very last time...she left to Chicago and haven’t heard from her since. after that I hobbied more times and met different providers like others at 8333, Whitney milfs, or incalls. I would tell them my story and they would tell me things like “I’m very handsome, I’m too young to be stressing out, be positive, have confidence, and that that special girl will come someday” I wish I can believe them but I don’t. Hobbying hasn’t really alleviated my loneliness, yea I have a great time but then when the session is over, I am back to the reality of loneliness and depression because I know the bond I had with the provider wasn’t real because I paid them....same with Angela. I don’t think I was special to her as she was to me. I’ve been thinking to stopping the hobby, especially since it’s a very expensive addiction. Loneliness and rejection has lead me down the dark path of hobbying...and it’s been a path I’ve been trying to get out of. Happy thanksgiving guys (I don’t celebrate it, but whatever), hearing from you guys would much be appreciated.
I am rooting for you to find a lady. It can be frustrating. It seems like you are liked, and have some good friends. So, I deduce that success can be right around the corner. It can be a very good for you, to not get the wrong girl. Because of need and trying too hard, a girl might seem better than she really is. When you find the right girl, you will share the good times, and the sex will be there. Also, you seem too young to even think about giving up. Keep on trying!!!!!

With some of the responses I’ve read about the holidays bringing these feelings up, I was thinking about setting up a dinner for some of us hobbyists that are subject to such feelings bc of whatever reasons.

I know this hobby requires some anonymity, but this site is proof that we can come together for each other.

Christmas is the next holiday where these feelings may come back up. Chinese restaurants are always open and with our interest in AMPs, it’s coincidentally appropriate to have a dinner there. I’m gonna sit on this more and think about it more.

I too spent thanksgiving alone at a diner but I also know thanksgiving with family is usually a shit show so I wasn’t upset.

Don't give up!

I was a virgin until I traveled to Hong Kong where it is legal. The girls there were beautiful and cost half as much.

I really love sex and that's really why I continue. Every girl is unique and it's awesome when you learn new techniques from the different girls and see your sex improve.

Im young also late 20s and not really ready for commitments right now and going to bars or social events just to get a girl is too much of a hassle especially since I don't drink.

Only thing I'm worried about is STDs and my future gf or wife won't perform as well as these girls... I had the best blowjob ever at a bj bar in Japan and nothing has come even close in NYC which sucks.

These are all great stories, I'm always fascinated to hear the human side of you guys. I thought we were all just hairy emotionless animals that only came out at night?
On a serious note, I didn't start till I was around 30 post a heartbreaking seperation. The first time was terrible but I knew it wouldn't be the last. I remember maybe circa 2002 reading a forum similar to ISG about men's travels through exotic lands to bang gorgeous women.
This was always on my mind so come 2012 and since I was newly single I embarked on my own world sex tour. Mexico, Panama, Colombia, the Netherlands, Brazil, Thailand, Bolivia, Hong Kong. Pretty much a year of fucking the hottest women I could find. If I saw a movie with a hot Brazilian actress, I decided to go to Brazil and fuck them all!!
Sick and perverted? It's all relative.
I think it's only natural to want to bang lots of women. I experienced countries such as Brazil and Colombia where it is perfectly socially acceptable for men to have either a mistress or to visit brothels.
I dabble here and there now but I try to lay off as I'm married now and committed to being (or trying) to be a good husband.
Some people like golf or model trains, I simply went through a phase where I really really liked pussy.

I don't think it is BS at all.
Sure, if you are George Clooney nailing hot young girls for free, you don't need the hobby.
But for us regular Joe Schmoes? Let's see. (a) Hobby with girls 30+ years younger than us. Or (b) Go on match and date wrinkled 40 y/o bags with cellulite and attitudes.
Hmmmm....wonder which one I'll choose...
I have this guy in my building about 30 tall, hollywood/model good looking and the steady parade of 8s and 9s this guy bangs is amazing. Every time I see him he is either going in or leaving the building with a different super hot young chick.

I work with a kid like that.
When we go out to bars, girls gravitate towards him.
But, he has a girlfriend and he doesn't fool around.
I think he's nuts.

He'll learn, all it will take it his woman to leave him and he'll lose faith in humanity and never be faithful again.
He'll look back when he's old and weep knowing how much hot Tang he missed out on when he was young.

i started hobbying at 19. At 19, I started earning big boy money, became sorta a hot shot (42k)...never had a problem with girls, I’d usually fuck a new girl every week at that point of my life, I wouldn’t call myself celebrity hot but I am a pretty attractive dude and I don’t have problem attracting girls lol

I simply heard about these places in my neighborhood and I wanted to explore my neighborhood, fast forward ended up going to one to see if it was true. It was sorta exciting lol that’s the only reason why I kept going...did it for almost a year and stopped because Financially it was a burden. I did a good job measuring myself becaue I really loved it. Spent around 2500 in Almost a year.

But now I really don’t have interest as much because like I said before, I get pussy for free and TRUST me! Free pussy is better lmao
The things free pus would do for me still boggles the mind. Those where the days. Alas time changes the situation.

Dude we have had similar lives. Dating can be stressful. And this Boriqua friend of mine told me something philosophical. all girls are hookers. the girlfriends wives mistresses want to be gifted, wine and dined and if u make them pay for dinner 5 straight times they will leave u unless u r a model like hunk. At least these working girls are honest direct upfront about it that’s all. at least working girls always force safe sex cuz their lives depend on it. The only times I got rashes were from non working girls in my college dorm parties and bar hookups ironically. Of course if anybody can find a true love with an attractive girl good for them. But this is the next best thing.
That latina Woman lied to you. Either she was a pro or she did it on the side. Cause courting a girl is NOT like paying her for sex. I understand a pro would want to make it seem like all Women are pros, they're not. Don't let this hobby skew you of thinking not everyone is about this lifestyle.

Only cause you can go raw but I’d disagree with you completely. Free/civilian pussy usually sucks
at least head from civilian girls suck. If I could choose an amp girl for free or a civilian girl, I’m choosing amp girl
I was just thinking about this the other day. I love my gf. I've had several gfs in my life. I've dated many non pros. None of them can suck dick like some of the pros I've seen in my 8+yrs of real hobbying.

Now fucking, many of them can hang some better.

However imo non pro pussy to someone you have strong feelings-love is better than fucking pros.

I hear all that, but nothing like getting a super hot gfe session from a very hot stranger that you connect with on a physical level. You go from zero to 120 in no time. that speaks to a deep place in our male biology- the love stuff is great too, just different. You need both as a male. MAybe sometimes more of one and other times more of the other one. A Colombian gf I had could teach pros how to suck dick, also had a white girl in Hawaii that could blow the horn with the best of them.

Trust me, things will get better. You have a good paying job, and you will find someone who really likes you and you can develop a good healthy relationship. Use this hobby as just a way to satisfy urges and needs. Get some new hobbies and try new things. Say yes to things that you would not normally do. You may find someone that you work with or someone at the gym. Just when you meet that someone, take it slow and don't fall hard.

As for me, i started this hobby some 10 years ago. A buddy of mine told me he got a HJ at an asian place. I went home that night and scoured the internet and found all these places. At the time, amps would freely advertise in the classified sections of the local paper. I found a place about 20 minutes from work and took a long lunch. The first time I was scared to death. I was offered a shower and accepted and found myself getting hard as she soaped me. Back to the room I got my first HJ, but I felt like a fiend when hot cum shot all over my stomach and leg. I told myself this was a one time thing. But a month later I was back. HJ quickly was not enough, then came BJs, but I said I would draw the line there. Well of course I lied to myself and 6 months later I found myself banging some asian girl. Today, I'm in different amps at least 2 or 3 times/week. Before I would go because I was horny, now I find myself going just to go. Today I just got an urge and left work early and banged this girl and shot my load on her mouth and tits. Prior to this urge I had no intention of spending $200. I tell myself that I have to stop or at least cut back to 1/week.

And trust me.
Having an upper middle class/net worth does not in any way guarantee the you will find a girl. Especially one the "really likes you".
Not trying to put a damper on your positive message for the kid. But it is simply not that simple.
Yes, I believe he is young enough to turn it around, but it will take a lot more than having a good job and losing weight.

He has to get buff. Ripped. No steroids, but hit the gym hard and get the kind of body that sets him apart.
He was to work on his confidence. Fight training (boxing/martial arts/judo/whatever) will help him towards that goal.
He has to be able to do things that set him apart. Taking course on automotive and home repair will come in handy. Girl needs her toilet replaced? He can do it.
All these things are things I should have done when I was his age.
I wish him all the best. But it's going to take a hell of a lot more than having a good job and being fit and trim to get hot young girls for free. Trust me, I know what I am talking about.
