I could be mistaken, but it seems he has been advertising as an escort for much, much longer than he has as a masseur.

And you, more than any of us, know that ego size is inversely proportionate to the size of something else.

Awwwwwwww.

Count me in with @coriolis888. I think you will hire again. There are plenty of escorts who can make a connection with their clients and not disappear. Should you hire again, here's a suggestion: find at least two guys you connect with and space out playdates. That way, the play won't get stale and no one feels pressured to hire or be hired. That is NOT to say you pressured the guy who prompted you to start the thread. It simply says you will have a couple of guys so if one isn't available or needs a break you have the other.

The only time Metro knocks the socks off anything is when it has a fatal train crash, which happens with alarming frequency. The flimsy cars telescope into one another, which causes the fatalities to occur. FYI - The official CTA spelling is "L," as explained in this Twitter post. Enjoy the ketchup you put on your suburban hot dogs.

I visited Philadelphia once, in the mid-1990's. My impression was it had a lot of beautiful historical architecture but needed a good hosing-down. Obviously, a lot has changed in 20 years and I intend to visit again soon.

What the hell do you mean by calling us "harsh?" When the hell is this board harsh? Huh? When? Give us an example!! Just kidding. While I am not criticizing you for tipping/gifting and booking multi-hour appointments, you deserve to be treated nicely whether you book one-hour sessions and always pay the stated rate and not a penny more or you do as you have done. On the other hand, no need to feel bad about doing so. I'm on the fence about hiring an escort to be a trainer as well as being a playmate. I also don't believe doing so caused the next set of behaviors to occur. I also do not believe great "customer relationship management" and "being genuine when one does so" are mutually exclusive. Well, that certainly sucks. While there is a decent probability that this behavior is a result of too many sessions within too short of a time, there is an equally decent probability that something else is going on. That "something else" might well be completely unrelated to you. Nothing you said indicates you broke any cardinal rules of not becoming attached. It does not sound like to fell in love with him nor does it sound like you were trying to maintain an exclusive relationship with him. To me, it sounds like you are disappointed that someone you enjoy spending time with has abruptly ceased contact. As @nycman said, this shows you are human. I have not been ghosted by an escort. Guys have explained why they would not be able to see me, but not just ceased contact. I also don't think this is "common," but not having studied a broad sample of escorts it is impossible to say whether it is or is not. Not being or knowing the escort, it is impossible to give insight into his psyche. However, it is entirely possible one of the following has occurred: Something is going on his life that makes it difficult or impossible to spend time with you and he doesn't know how/doesn't have the bandwidth to say so. He is experiencing feelings of some kind that have caused him to decide he can't see you and at the same time he is not able to say this to you. He is overwhelmed by something and isn't in a place where he can tell you for reasons completely unrelated to you Stop beating yourself up!! Whoops, was being harsh again.

This is going to sound, um, "itchy," but dude needs to let up on the Photoshopping. The few pics that leave some lines on his forehead are pretty attractive. The rest are just odd.

Truvada as PrEP is one additional tool in the prevention of acquiring the HIV virus. The decision to start using it is very personal and only you can make it. For me, after reading about potential side effects and talking with my physician it was about having that extra tool in my toolkit. I've been using it faithfully for two years and so far the only side effect has been slightly elevated kidney liver values. Considering the side effects associated with one of the asthma medications I take (increased risk of death due to an asthma attack) the Truvada as PrEP side effects are minimal. Now here's where it gets messy and uncomfortable. Based on your various posts, Truvada as PrEP is not the silver bullet that will alleviate your deep-seated and long-term fear of seroconverting. It appears that part of that fear is associated with you pursuing sexual gratification outside of your self-described sexless marriage. No medication will help with that. As long as you understand that there's a decent probability that you will feel some degree of fear, despite using Truvada as PrEP, it could be beneficial to you. My advice: talk to your doctor. EDIT: The elevated values were liver, not kidney.

I heard about that turkey fryer. What I want to know is how you didn't blow a circuit.

Especially after a long, hard, sweaty day at the jobsite. No AC in the new construction... Excuse me, but I believe I have the vapors now.

Here are two true stories: 1) I started seeing a guy who told me he was "mildly allergic" to cats. When he came over to my apartment he would start wheezing, sneezing, and looked like he would pass out. He was going to see his doctor about getting allergy shots. As much as I hated to, as he was an absolute sweetheart, I suggested that we might not be a match given he would be on death's door upon walking into my place. He gave it a shot (pun intended) and it didn't work. However, he never suggested I get rid of my cats. 2) A few years later, a guy and I are on our first date. I mentioned the cats and he said "of course, the cats would have to go because I don't like cats." When I ascertained he was serious I decided I had to go. Men!

I was expecting to hear the mother's reply to the mirror guy being "Yeah, but he might not answer your call."

OMG! How awful. I'm more than a little surprised that the boyfriend took his cat to the shelter. Makes me wonder if he would feel that your friend is equally disposable.

I tend to use a mix of my own experience, recommendations from friends and relatives, Consumer Reports, cnet, Car and Driver, and online reviews. CR tends to favor some brands over others and often tests models that are no longer available. That really isn't helpful when they give great ratings to a couple of models from a particular brand but low ratings to others from the same brand.

What was the reason you left your dog behind when you left home?

I "liked" this post not because I'm glad the guy didn't want to cuddle, but because I agree with the line I boldfaced. ASK UP FRONT

Aside from the double-booking, my experience was the same as yours.

I sleep nude whether or not I've had sex.

Only if it is winter in a cold climate and you don't want to spend money on gloves.

My beloved Willy was 21 years old when I had to put him to sleep back in 2013. About a year before his demise a sore appeared on his nose. It was neither a fungal nor bacterial skin infection, so the veterinarian concluded it was most likely cancer. He lived another year plus. It killed me to put him down, as he was the cutest, sweetest, gentlest cat. Up until his final weekend he was active and seemingly happy. One day, he peed on himself, had trouble standing, and stopped eating. It was time.

I think it is more about communication skills and one's approach to life in general than experience hiring escorts. From the first time I hired more than twenty years ago I was clear on the first communication what I was looking for and always asked the escort for his thoughts on what I described. That's how I approach work situations and life in general. Not coincidentally, the drama often described by potential clients rarely occurs in my interactions with escorts.
