Self sabotage I guess

Google Voice number. Delete the app when not in use, that way your number stays the same. I do have to say that there has been an issue with communication between Google Voice and some AT&T phone numbers.

Yes, I do provide references and I’m thankful that girls actually recheck. Guys have tried to use me falsely several times because I have a name that’s been around for a long time.
While we are here, Corona, can you do me a favor and stop with the creepy stalking behavior? You don’t have to put a snarky comment under every single one of my reviews.(but yes, I am checking with the last to make sure we have actually met because I’m not familiar with that handle. I do not allow false reviews. And if I was “writing my own. “They’d be a hell of a lot better lmfao)
I know a lot of us can get carried away behind the keyboard, but I have honestly had at least one provider mention your name in a list of “trolls”/people that she won’t see because of how you comment. (guys have said the same thing about me, I can be quite bossy) Now I’m fully expecting you to reply with something sarcastic or mean. When in reality, this is a friendly comment from me.

A lot of good replies here already, but echoing:

1. A lot of newbie friendly providers out there. Make sure they'll be a reference for you before you see them so it's not a wasted opportunity.

2. Sign up on P411

3. Be amenable to sharing your LinkedIn that lists your real world info.

im newbie-friendly and I don't require any real-world info for screening. I respect your privacy. I would be so put off if a guy asked for my real info just to get a nut lmaooo. i also respond to reference checks from the ladies for you if you ask first

This is a couple of days old. Lots of good responses already like Madison (of Houston) said already.

Here were my steps FWIW:
1. I got my start listening to a podcast (now discontinued as the creator who was a provider got disillusioned with this work; but she did her job educating people about safe and sound practices).
2. Went onto P4 based on #1 above.
3. Connected with someone who would see me with no okays.
4. Got the okays. Gathered up a few more eventually..
5. Along the way, discovered our two best forums (including this one) and tried to add value here and there, when I could. Stayed away from RR and the ‘crawler’ sites as much as I could.

Additional bonus points:
6. Tried to see “independents” as much as I could ascertain; as I could not philosophically support the alternative.
7. Treated woman I see with consideration and respect, and they reciprocated when asked for references. Some of them went over and above the ask, to tell someone asking for reference about how good I am.
8. Put in the hard work to get to Sugar Babies (whole different deal) and reaped some modest rewards with which I am satisfied. For the most part, kept these two worlds separate.
9. Maintained discretion and confidentiality always.

Now 30 plus okays later and a few women who will say good things about me (all truth), I am all set.

Best practice tip: I always informed the women that so and so will be asking for a reference, and if it’s okay to give their info. If so, how would they like to be contacted? I followed their preferred mode of connect, when passing their info (email or text).
