After a long while of not being on “companion” websites I have found that backpage, theeroticreview and many others have been shut down! I have looked all over the internet and the few site I have seen recommended are clearly scam sites. So my question is what the hell am I supposed to do? Is this the end of online “companionship”, is my best bet to wander the streets and hope I stumble upon one?? Seriously please help me, I’m going on vacation soon and need some fun.
