Why ?
Unless you're marrying the guy, the line is still clear that they're a paid service provider and you're the customer.

I have had luck with this as well. So my original regular provider and I became fast friends and we did have the very serious talk about when it's the job and when it's not. We both completely agreed on his to handle that and eventually it grew into becoming am one of the closest relationships I've ever had with someone. He's no longer working, but that never stopped us from talking every day and seeing each other when we wanted to. 
And with my current regular, that too grew to be a very good friendship and now it's come to the point that, as long as I let him know beforehand, I can go to his place just to chill with him or while he's out working and wait for him to come back. Have a key to his place and everything. And we had that talk as well, but that one was very quick because we already knew what that fine line looks like. 
And one final provider I'm actually building that relationship with at the moment. The one is still new, but we both see it becoming a friendship. 
For me personally, I believe as long as you are open and honest with each other and can have those talks about work vs friends, it really can become a good friendship. Honesty and clear communication are key, as well as chemistry between the client and provider to be able to get that connection.

I have a provider that had a difficult personal situation to deal with. I told him I won't contact him for a few weeks while he attended to his personal life. He said he thinks of us more like friends and to please do stay in touch which really melted my heart.
I really like this guy but I'm conscious that I'm a client and I don't want to encroach on his private life. He has casually dismissed that sentiment when I've mentioned it to him previously but I want to stay realistic even if I am delusional about my intention to marry him 😝
Should he choose it, he should be able to cut ties with me and this work whenever he wants. This is a job, not an obligation. 

To be clear: none of them were "escorts".
I believe the key to "maintaining friendships" is to actually HAVING one to start.
Some clients mistake polite business manners as friendship.

I keep in touch with several young men who used to do massage(+more). All of them departed NYC but always ask to see me out for a drink when they are back in town. I keep a casual friendship going through social media. Facebook/ Instagram/ Twitter.

Sure it's possible.   I have 3 clients that were (and are)  friends.    It requires a serious conversation about responsibility and the fine line between work  (escorting)  and friendship.   The lines cannot be blurred.   If booked,  I expect to be paid as with any client.    Because they have been friends,  my responsibilities to them are not any different.     I would say I have several clients (who I met from booking)  who are "friendly with me"  if I see them outside a booking.    Not sure I can say we are "friends",   but I haven't had any issues in this area to date.

He is a sweet guy. Slow in responding, into haute couture and expensive fast cars. But smart and friendly. Go for it. He admits the pic in the ad is a decoy and sends you his real pics when you message him.

Met with Logan and really enjoyed his company!  PM for more.  Again, my tastes are so narrow and limited it's difficult for me to 'recommend' because I don't interact with the escort on so many levels which are important to clients on here; but safety, cleanliness and looks are absolute top, and I approve of him on that basis.

I’ve seen him at the gym a couple times now and he looks exactly like his photos.  I guessed he was an escort from his interaction from someone at the gym and their approach to him. Max was very professional and kind of quickly disengaged though.

People are Gaga because truly masculine white frat/jock guys on rentmen are practically unicorns. And that’s because some of us don’t count super WeHo/Circuit Boy/Porn Star guys as such. They may look similar, but it’s just not the same. At all. Like I’ve hired guys like that who don’t even know what clothing brands I’m describing when they ask how they should dress (What are Chubbies? What do Rainbows have to do with anything? Real questions.) let alone who say played in the last Super Bowl. When they are faking being a frat bro, it shows. 
 
and even most of the gay for pay straight guys I’ve been with either didn’t go to college, didn’t play sports in college, or weren’t in a frat. If that’s what you want that night, it’s difficult to get.

I'm tempted to try setting up a meeting with both of them at the same time and see what happens.

I asked for more photos and rates, his reply:
"yeah I have more pics 1k for me to bottom"

Gents, 
any insight?  Thank you!

Gentlemen, You know that expression, “If you don’t have anything nice to say then don’t say anything at all”. There are plenty of other threads on the site that you can reply to. Let’s stop the body shaming. 

...and 5'9" constitutes "Titan" status?? 

THAT's "BUFF" now? Goodness gracious. 

I don’t mean to be rude, but what exactly is causing you guys to go so gaga over this one?
The ad I’m looking at has virtually no information and one generic (although admittedly nice) torso pic.
What am I missing? Did the ad change?

Good lord, I see what you mean OP. I normally never hire anyone with 0 reviews or reported meetings on this forum, but this guy's ad is practically causing my brain to short circuit. If he's available in the next week, I will probably take one for the team and break the seal here. I went ahead and messaged him, so we'll see what happens.

has anyone met with This man? He is pushing ALL my buttons . Thanks

He has basically retired 

When I look at this profile, the photos are of a really good looking boy, but I would expect to get nothing more than “a lick and a promise”
He’s probably very good with nice older gentlemen (so long as they’re also hot and under thirty.)
😂
 

He received a review yesterday from a guy who is premium RM member but has only submitted one review and that was in 2016 for an RM who, not surprisingly, no longer advertises.
Anyway, he said this about Straight Student:  "Very polite and respectful and good looking"

I could unstraighten him quickly and enjoy every minute and inch of it!

I’ve developed friendships with a few clients. I’m always careful to maintain emotional boundaries. That’s not to say I can’t have genuine caring feelings, but never romantic feelings or trying to fulfill the role of a shrink or a family member.
If the boundaries are clear, it works! Depending on chemistry and mutual interests, etc. Happens from time to time.

welcome to the forum and thanks for the comment......
gee, "fairly" sounds a little -- tentative.......are you comfortable expanding on that?......thanks......
