Yeah, you just gotta get used to CL...after awhile, you develop a spidey sense and can find the odd good one. There is nothing like it when you find a gem.
I was in Montreal not long ago and I had been watching the Montreal CL board for several weeks before going down...just to get the feel of the posters and what was there. Happened to get a post show up on 2 or 3 days and not be a regular day to day spammer. Hooked up and it was an AWESOME little MILF...mid-30s, tiny girl...who "swings" from time to time with her hubby. Hubby was outta town and she was looking for an impromtu booty call and placed the CL ad for the heck of it (not a pro by any means and was just looking for some spontaneous fun)....damned if it wasn't one of THE best hookups I've had to date...extremely GFE bordering on PSE...insatiable (like me...LOL)...so it was just go, go, go. At first when setting up the appt (180 for the hr, which she said she looked at other posts and that seemed to be the normal rate) I said we'll do 1 hr for sure and if we click I'm open for more...heh...we ended up going for 6 hrs...many sogs, massages, cuddles, whatnot and at the end (neither of us wanted to stop, but she had to go pick up the hubby at the airport in an hour...LOL)...I said what do I owe ya...she said 400! Couldn't freakin' believe it (needless to say she got a good tip which I had to wrestle with her to take) and she was one helluva nice woman, real soccermom, girl next door type...down to earth and REAL. For he it wasn't about the $, she just wanted a hookup and some fun...
THAT...is why I troll CL all the time...not for the frickin' stupid spam posts of bad SPs, agency spam, etc...it's for the rare spontaneous ones looking for some fun...you SURE don't come across those too often, but when ya do...it makes it soooo worth while.
