Not to discourage anyone from experiencing what it's all about. But I've had my fair share of experiences over the years, and it's time to throw in the towel.

For me, sex without any real emotion isn't that enjoyable. It has got to that point. I've become too old and cynical, and have wised up and can no longer be easily fooled.

For a long time I gave hookers a wide berth, but recently I've been feeling a little low on the libido side, call it age, so I thought maybe it's possible to rekindle it via a hooker, if anything it was confirmation that's not the way forward.

If I have to be completely honest, then it's the idea of catching a STI that is the final straw. It's really off putting.

When I have natural sex, I enjoy it intimately, kissing her everywhere, etc. With a hooker that's just asking for trouble. What you're left with is - sex the bite sized version. Or a shadow of real sex.

See when you get older, it becomes as much as pleasing yourself as it does pleasing her. And you can't be fooled. Foreplay that extends before the bedroom. Things she says, her general mood, etc, a nice evening out, delaying it.

None of this is really possible with a hooker, perhaps with a bigger budget, but not in the hour of your time category.

Am I saying, every experience with hookers are fake and like this? Absolutely not, I've had my fair share of good experiences too. But then you always get the lemons.

A younger me might have had this, you win some and you lose some, and that's it attitude. Not anymore. That part of my brain that releases dopamine during sex, gets the exact same level of pleasure from jerking off and watching porn.

That's sad you say? Is there at least hope?

Well yeah. I've raised the bar. Now only truly erotic experiences, real and tangible, or I'll jerk off at home. I want to know that woman is in to me, or fuck that....

That's it - end of rant.
