For me personally, I enjoy the chatter. I enjoy reading what friends from other parts of the world have to say. It is an education. I, through messaging, exchange many things/ ideas with others. It is enjoyable to be on cc. It is NOT just about the sex although that is certainly a common desire in being on this site.
I spent three months as a paying member of RLC, but could not control my voyeurism so I had to give it up. And, yes I recognize that is my problem, not yours. Was staying up all hours of the night, so because I can't control my time properly, I made the decision to stop my membership.
Just my 2 cents worth and that is about all it is worth.
