Testimonial from a Client

As a general rule, I really enjoy spending time with my clients.  Many of them are just incredible souls, and the connection we make often greatly transcends the basal financial arrangement we make to compensate me for the time I spend with them.   Jacob is one such client.  I’ve been seeing him periodically since late summer of last year when he was referred to me by another client.  He has a job that brings him into town once every two or three months, and he always schedules an appointment with me when he’s here.  We’ve gone to the symphony together, among other things.

Several weeks ago, I was out of town when he was to be here, so I offered to refer him to another provider.  Ava had become a friend of mine through our conversations on Twitter, and I asked if she’d be interested in entertaining him.  She agreed and I hooked the two of them up.  They apparently had a good time based on what I heard from both of them. 

Jacob offered to write a kind of testimonial for us to publish jointly, and though it has taken him a couple of months to get it to us, he’s finally come through.  Ava and I were to jointly publish this on our respective blogs, but she’s stopped seeing clients and has taken her web site down.  She has started her own agency, however, Cachet Companions.  It’s very professionally run and she has several hot young ladies working with her. 

Anyway, what follows are his words.  I’ve not modified this in any way, except to chop up the paragraphs a little bit to make it easier to read.   Special thanks to Jacob for his patronage and his kindness.

When my divorce was finalized about two years ago I thought I’d have to wait until I retired or changed jobs to be sexually active again. My job requires me to be on the road much of the time, which doesn’t allow me to invest a good deal of time in developing personal relationships. The amount of time I spent on the road was what led to the dissolution of my marriage. With all of my time spent on the road, it left little time for my wife and I to be a couple. After 15 years of marriage I was inexperienced with approaching women in bars and, quite honestly, I found the very idea quite intimidating.

During one of my trips to Chicago a client introduced me to the idea of professional companionship. Like many my idea of prostitutes consisted of what I’d seen on the streets growing up and the idea didn’t set well with me in the beginning. I spent some time online doing a little bit of research on the various escort services around town and booked one before I left. My initial experiences with escorts were less than stellar, but I eventually learned how to pick the right ones out, and have now seen about a dozen different women across the country.

On one of my trips to San Francisco last year another client referred me to Alexa. He had been a client of hers for a couple of months and spoke highly of her skills, both sexual and interpersonal. I initially balked at the rates – how could anyone be worth that much money just for sex? What I soon found out was that there’s so much more to her than just a body. She’s intelligent, articulate, and knowledgeable about a wide range of topics. My appointments with her turned into far more than just physical encounters.

A few weeks later I was in the bay area again. Alexa was out of town so she referred me to a friend of hers named Ava. Like Alexa, Ava is very engaging and outgoing, and an excellent conversationalist. And, also like Alexa, she’s very enthusiastic about the sex. She seemed to enjoy being with me as much as I enjoyed being with her.

What I find so fascinating about both of these women is that they’re both normal people. They’re both highly intelligent women (they’re both working on master’s degrees, after all). They talk, laugh, and they both enjoy what they’re doing. Some will say they’re faking it, that they get paid to pretend to enjoy it. I consider myself a pretty good judge of whether or not people are lying to me – I deal with dozens of people each and every day. I can tell when someone wants to be somewhere else or is daydreaming in the middle of their work. I can say without reservation that both of these women take great pride and joy in their work and genuinely enjoy what they’re doing. If they are faking, they’re very good actresses.

I can certainly see why street prostitution is a crime, but I have trouble understanding why what these women do is often considered criminal. They’ve been a godsend for me. And while the thought of paying for companionship may be an anathema to some people, it allows me to schedule some personal time with someone I know will be engaged with me for a period of time and have an outlet for sexual release if that’s what we decide to do. I take great comfort in knowing that I don’t have to take my chances with someone I might meet in a bar or club only to be shot down at the end of the night.

To the both of you, thank you for your time. I know you got paid for it, but the realness (faked or not) you brought with you made it worth the investment. You both made it into a personal encounter as opposed to simply professional sex, as Alexa likes to call it. It makes being on the road a bit more palatable and that truly means a lot to me. See you both again soon.
