A couple of points -
Crothian is busy (as is Alsih2o, Cthulhu's Librarian, Teflon Billy, and PirateCat) all reading books for the Ennie awards.
Secondly, Escort services are legitimiate services. I had a friend (a girl) who did this for a time. Apparently even went to Europe with some guy. Now, most people will tell you that being an escort is just a legitimate way of becoming a prostitute. But I like to think that you can be an escort and not have sex with your client. I'm sure many of them do that. Businessman will sometimes hire them for business dinners, if they are single. So, it's a perfectly legitimate service. No, I've never hired one.
Frukathka, if you wanted to, you could hire an escort, take her out for the evening like a regular date, and then have her give you some candid advice on any vibes she's getting from you. That is, if you don't have any other female friend that can do this for you. Alternatively, it might help you become less anxious around women. I think for a long time I came across as too needy towards, women, and then once I met my wife, and I lost that, I was constantly seeing all these women that I could have gone up to and struck up a conversation with. I would never have thought of doing that before when I was scared. So, I think fear can play a large role in that. You just have to see women as people, and not as women. I can't describe it as any other way.
My psychology professor in college told us a story about his friend in college. He would approach random women and ask "Do you want to f*ck?" His friend swore that 1 out of 10 would say yes. I had a tagline once that read "Nice shoes, wanna f*ck?" And a female friend of mine confessed that that probably would have worked on her at one time.
