Ode to ********** Personal Encounters

The internet will not be the same without you ********** Personal Encounters and the entire suite of CL personals forums. How many hot nights I browsed, refining my search so that only images posted today would appear before my eyes in a lovely preview tile format. Here I could see what I assumed to be people like my neighbors and coworkers putting it all out for me to see. I would waste entire evenings and weekend mornings in front of your glow, rubbing until I could rub no more.

You didn’t always deliver what I needed and there were definitely men paying for what they were asking for, or offering d**gs in exchange for sex using acronyms and euphemisms I had never heard of, but sometimes I would find that thing that made me stop and go “oooooooooh”. Every time I found something wonderous I would open it in a new tab, saving it for later.

Now, I can’t have that because you went away. I understand why you had to go but I’m not sure anything will ever replace you. You were my secret sexy garden.
