Great thread

Personally I’m at stage 4 and slowly approaching stage 5
Retirement sounds depressing

Wow, great thread!!
I’m at stage 4 and getting close to stage 5 as well.

This sounds like my case:
No lady seems to be able to compete with your favourite regular(s) and you start to have thoughts like “when my favourite lady(s) leave the business, I will quit too.”

Maybe I should book more frequently with other ladies. By doing this, hopefully the excitement builds up again and I can find great chemistry with other SP(s).

Or just accept the inevitable that one day my ATF(s) will retire and I’ll eventually retire as well (might be easier said than done).
