There are several providers that I have been wanting to see for over a year but they still have zero reviews and I am not willing to be the canary in the coal mine. So until then I will just dream and wait. Should I just ask a member to vouch for me on here, or how to you prove that you had a confirmed visit with someone?
If you have visited with providers from this forum, then you should contact them and make sure they will vouch for you, and that you can use them as a future reference for other providers. If/when the lady says yes, you send a private message to ck1942 and copy the provider. The message should simply state that it's regarding verification and that you had a behind closed doors session with said provider. The provider will confirm the meeting. Do this twice and you'll get your verified status. For the sake of the process, I would have the message subject as something along the lines of Verification Message 1/2, then 2/2 later.

Being verified, doesn't even mean GTG in theory. Only that there were two visits that took place. Providers, in the past, have been able to get verified if they had a number of verified provider contacts already on the forum. I don't think there is a workaround for hobbyists. Seeking out the reviews is good and don't be afraid to create a post in the Coed discussion for a provider about whom you're curious. You might get some public responses and you might get some DMs.
