I've been there as a guy. Sat in a beautiful apartment in Miami and tried to get a nice lady to have dinner. Hung out in a sports bar, did loads. Did my book signings & had loads of nice chats, but nothing. The only hit online was a gay guy offering a bj on my phone, & that wasn't what I needed. Even the escorts weren't what I wanted.
There must be a lot of souls in this world wandering around seeking nice company with no strings?
