New to this

I’m in Texas for work I will be here extended period of time. I’ve never looked for professional services before and I’m not really having much luck. It’s tough to weed out the fakes and scammers and even get responses from some. Is my best bet just going to progresso? Or is there something I’m just not understanding here. I would love any advice or help.

Check out the reviews sections, they're usually girls that can be contacted again, some may flake but most won't. Try them first.
