Dayum. I might have to stick around in Dallas a little longer when I visit!

The quote I got for a new trans was $15K. I'm not smart enough on mechanics to properly call bullshit. It's just not worth it right now. I'm putting about $1500 a month into a savings account, so it'll build quick. Got an opportunity coming up that'll double that, plus i have some investments I can pull from. I should be able to get myself a nice upgrade soon. Something with more speed and style. You're right though... The EVO will always hold a special place in my heart

Well, I beat the hell out of it for four years when I was stationed at Fort Drum NY. The winters were hell. I'm not surprised it's already going. As for what I'm looking for, I haven't decided. I'd love to get a newer EVO, but I really don't want anymore car payments. I think I'll shop around and see what's available. I just bought a new CRV for the family, so I might just get a beater to get me to and from work. Who knows. Someday I'll get back into the fun car game.

Nothing fancy. Stock 2011 EVO X. Just hit 100K miles and the transmission is shot. It's on its last legs. I'm actually headed out this weekend to see if I can find myself an upgrade.

@PSD -I currently drive an EVO, so GTRs are definitely up my alley, though there was no way I could've afforded one fresh out of college when I first bought the EVO! I'll be in Dallas the week of 9 July. At this point, the lodge is fairly high on my priorities. Maybe I'll see you there! Though, it looks like Dallas might be a busy time. Thankfully I'm planning a few days.

@Chessmaster - I just realized I completely butchered the @ earlier. My bad. @minnow - I noticed that too. Everyone jumped straight onto the extras bandwagon. Like I said earlier, I'm not seeking, but don't know if I'd say no if offered. To follow your analogy, I'm a Porsche kinda guy. I like a beautiful, comfortable ride that I can cruise in when I want, or I can open up and tear through hell if the mood strikes.

Yah, I'm not the typical TUSCLer, and while I may not agree with some of the folks here, I respect their right to spend their money as they will. For me, dances don't do that much, whereas intimacy, conversation, and mutual contact are much more fun. My CF gives great massages when we go to "dance." Occasionally, she'll mix in some grinding, but she knows that's not what I'm after. There's no chance of me being an LDK guy. No pasties is good to hear, plus I'll be staying right by the airport, so I think Houston is set. I'll take a look at how long I can stay in Dallas to see how many places I can visit. As for SA, I've got a friend down there that I might go see. Maybe she'll have a favorite place, or worse comes to worst, I'll just pop into one of the places y'all have been talking about. See Amelia, even non-Texans say y'all!

@cash - I thought humble-bragging was the TUSCL way! @amelia - where are you at? ;)

I don't mind negotiation. I'm a one timer wherever I go, so I don't blame them trying to get as much as they can. The ladies at my home club know me and know my spending habits, otherwise I'm sure they'd be the same way! I think I agreed on $800 with one if them for an entire 8 hour shift, but we were having fun and she ended up leaving with just over a grand. I make too much money and my personal life is in shambles. What else am I gonna do? Lol

I don't think you're busting my balls at all. You've given great advice and I'll definitely be paying attention. Good to know about dinner too. My home club doesn't have food, so I usually eat right before going. It'll be nice to take a meal to enjoy the scenery and plan out my evening. Overall, sounds like I need to focus on Houston and Dallas, and just use SA as a quick stop for the touristy bits. Maybe check out somewhere, but not with any real cash in hand.

Both of those sound like a pretty good time, and that's solid advice about the budget. I typically pay out about $800-1000 to whichever woman I'm spending the night with on a particular evening, and they haven't ever asked for more. Hell, they don't even ask for what I give them. We've had one talk about money, and now when I walk in, they're with me until I leave. They know I'll tip them what they're worth, and I appreciate never being asked. I'm guessing that's not how it would go elsewhere! That's alright. If I don't take it to the club, I can't spend it, right?

@PaulDrake - Looking for about 7-1 shift. I don't look for extras, I've never been approached about extras, and if I'm being perfectly honest, I don't know what I would say if I was. I currently go to a club that has extras, and I know which girls offer. They don't do anything for me though, so I'm not interested. If a girl I was interested approached though... I dunno. I can probably get 1-2 visits out of each city. My typical expenditure in a night is between 1000-1500 at my current club. I could realistically bump my budget to $5K if it's worth it. As for environment, I'm used to a super divey hole in the ground with a semi-private VIP. I'm looking for a significant upgrade while I travel. I'd love to try a legit VIP, and don't mind paying for it. I don't drink alcohol though. I'll buy a bottle if fun comes with it, but won't ever touch it myself.

Sounds like I might need to cut my time in SA from 2 nights to 1 and stay a bit longer in one of the other cities. Do the dancers at St. James respond well to stage tips? My CF at the club I frequent doesn't hustle, and kept going from stage to the couch on her phone. She caught my eye though, so I laid a stack of 5s on the stage and that seemed to do the trick. She still doesn't hustle, but now instead of being on the couch with her phone, she's on the couch with me. I also saw that St. James has a VIP room with private stage, etc. What's the damage to get access to that?

Should also say that I'll be in Texas Monday to Friday, so weeknights instead of weekends

I'm going Houston, SA, DFW. Stumbled across St. James in the reviews. That place looks like it could be fun.

@Lone_Wolf - Yah, when I go to the club, I typically stay from 7-3. I'll delay to 8 if I haven't made contact with one of the dancers and made sure they're ready. Otherwise, it's empty until 8. Some days I go in and split my time and money between 3 or 4 dancers, but other times, I just want to get to know one better, so I'll text her and set something up. The club I go to is pretty small, tight knit group of girls, and I know most of their real names, numbers, etc. One friended me on facebook (I didn't accept due to my own security reasons), but now I have a ton of other dancers showing up in my people you might know. It's pretty awkward, but they don't seem to care. I've become the guy that they go hang out with when they're bored, it's slow, or they don't feel like hustling at that moment. I have my favorites and I tip those. The rest get some courtesy ones if I'm not busy. Politeness goes a long way I've noticed. Almost as far as tipping a $100 bill on stage.

I've spent my last two Friday nights with two different dancers. 8 hours per night, and they were with me the entire time without interruption. We danced a bit, no more than 15 dances a night (9 during last call because it's weird as fuck on the floor at that time). Each dancer took home between 800-1000 after tipout. I talked to them ahead of time and determined their nightly goal. I add 200 on top of it as incentive to relax. I start with a $100 down payment, and that's the only cash I hand outside of dances and stages. But I tip massive on stage. $100+ a song. That's how I show I'm serious about their time, and they don't ask for anything at any point. It's a very mutually respectful arrangement. One took a nap on me for 30 minutes, gave a massage, etc. The other met me for drinks before hand, we shared great conversation and intimacy. Each one has a different style, but they're both fun. Well worth the expense in my opinion. Bottom line: if you're not dancing but eating up their time, pay proportionally for what their goal is for the night. 8 hour shift and you steal her for 2 hours? She expects 800 a night, pay her 200. That can be through dances (careful of tipouts), stage tips, or two hundreds up front. Works at my club because there's no champagne room or true VIP. Yours May differ.

I agree, definitely a keeper. I was surprised to learn she's only 19 and her friend is 22. They certainly look great, but their personalities are much more mature. We had a conversation about Jazz bars and Frank Sinatra ffs. I've got their numbers and Snapchat. Hopefully this is the beginning of a good thing.

The club I go to is a 2 hour drive, about 160 miles total.

Gato, you're spot on, and that's why I don't mind a few incidental costs. Everytime I've dated a woman for a minute, I've bought her clothes, jewelry, paid a phone bill or whatever. Haven't gotten there yet with this girl, but if it gets to that point where I want to do that, then sure why not. I like helping the people in my life. I like being a provider, so why the hell not? Now, am I going to hand her lump sums of cash in exchange for sex? Nope. But I sure as shit will buy her a sexy ass dress, take her to a concert and a fancy restaurant, then back to the suite I've rented. I'm not cheap with my dates. Civilian or otherwise.

Skin, I want to clarify the living arrangement thing, because I can fully understand how that might scream warning. She's not moving in with me, ever. But, there's a country music concert in June that has one of her favorite bands playing, and it's five minutes from my front door. I might invite her down for the weekend for that. But, that's it. Hell, I'll probably see if my wife wants to go visit her family that weekend with my boy.

Eventually you'll see a conversation I had with a guy over there about why I spent so much. Bottom line up front, I don't go to clubs for sex or extras. I go to spend time with beautiful women, and to pay them for it. If I was looking for p4p, I'd get an escort. I have a budget that can afford once monthly high expenditure visits to the club. It just happens that the first dancer I met and I hit it off pretty well, and have since spent time together. I still plan on going back to the club, and I plan to spend time with some of the other dancers I met there as well. At the end of the night though, the plan is to take my friend back to the hotel. Win/win all around.

Hahaha. I don't have that guy's cash reserves to ever get that crazy. And like I said earlier, this is lasting a year max. After that, I won't be in the country anymore.

I mean, let's be honest, the sex was fucking phenomenal. If that's a recurring theme of our encounters, that alone is worth dealing with a bit of drama. Add in the way she is when she's sober, and I can deal with it once a month for a year or so.

Just read the wiki article, and yah, she's definitely very different when drinking, and yes, it stems from trauma that she's opened up to me about. Maybe that's why I'm more forgiving of it. I've lived through my own pain, and at her age, I wasn't fully adjusted yet. It took until I was about 26 before I came to terms with what happened. She's still processing, and right now, that involves overindulging in alcohol. Maybe I can share some of what worked for me and help her heal a bit faster.
