Thanks for the comments and thoughts to this. I've had one experience at a MP now. I intentionally kept it pretty limited as a first experience. Massage and HJ primarily but opted to enjoy a brief CBJ at the end. Upscale place and a beautiful and pleasant SP, but not sure I really digged the vibe of a MP myself - heard a guy coming out and talking to the front about his 15min success while I was in a waiting room and then later heard someone else engaged in their own fun in another room down the hall during. Maybe I was just more hyper aware as a first timer, and had unrealistic expectations in my head, but it detracted from the experience.
I would like something that feels a bit more personal and I'm thinking that means independent or outcall as the next go. Finding the right companion to spend time with is the next thing to navigate, and I'm not quite saying money is no object, but I'm sure there is still a 'pay for what you get' too. Ultimately, it's the experience that's more important to me. Quality > Quantity. I have a couple in mind, but any suggestions on who might fit the bill are welcomed.
