This thread went off kilter from Liam to Rick. (Rick btw was great on all levels with me as a regular about 10yrs ago before I moved downtown.)
Bringing it back to “Liam”, I’m curious whether the current pics match the masseur that @Isik1476 and @PatrickWelsh23 met?
These pics belong to a gay screenwriter, director and actor easily found through reverse image search who has a movie coming out this year. Could be him I guess, but surprising.

I get this, but I’m not Liam. & the Bergdorf’s comment was snarky. Apologies.
 
Im 52yo /  pretty decent shape (runner/skiier/surfer) that sometimes hires - mostly massage w/extras.  I don’t leave reviews often - & this is a new account.  On previous account I rarely had experiences that seem worth posting about but there are a few and a couple with criticism regarding profile pics / stats.   
 
So, here are some others I would recommend and maybe one or two that I would advise against.  As always, PM for details

Amazing!!!! 🍀  the entire package & What’a package. you’ll session will defiantly last longer than booked, so include that in your calendar. He likes to get to know you and commune.  He and his partner 🔥🔥 are both very caring and passionate, but very very “new age” so if that’s not your cup of tea, I’d say not for you  
seriously,  incredible, lovely, loving, & 🔥!!!

*But more than most want to pay to go the extra mile - & not to the end of the road   
*Apt was messy / brooklyn art vibe - but I didn’t mind so much,  clearly that kinda guy

Ok, haven’t repeated but have considered.

fun. Not really therapeutic  pics are real but maybe a bit outdated?  Bod is the same   Maybe a bit older.   Didn’t regret  have never gone back

okay, but a bit anxious and weird  but I think he was new.  Was a few years back.

I love handsome older (relative term) men  was curious forever because he reminded me a bit of a Russian masseur I used to see at equinox  
So…  when I got to his place, appearance was more disappointing than what I expected it to be   I also go a very very weird vibe at first and almost left - a kind of silence of the lambs vibe & probably should have left, and just trust instants…but it turned out ok.
The massage it’s self was actually really incredible and actually very erotic even tho there was zero attraction    
 
He is definitely a bit odd & bit curt, but harmless and I did really enjoy the massage  not going back tho

pics are total fakes -about 15 - 20yrs older than those shown and defiantly not even him. Mediocre shape   Should have walked away but didn’t.  Massage was “eh” & I declined the HE

pics are accurate but the personality is not. The massage technique was good, but he had a palpable negative / energy. I tried a couple times because I thought he might be having an off day  nope  kinda snooty three times - clearly he’s exceptionally good looking and that is why I tried more then most but I always felt worse after. If your his type maybe you’ll have an awesome experience  but I don’t know what that is   Middle age white 5’8 trim/ fit, outdoorsy  type (me) maybe is not. 

 
 
 
 
 

I did. He's absolutely gorgeous and very sweet (and brand new at this), but the massage was kinda lackluster and he has hard boundaries re: MT and interaction, which I found surprising at that price. Wouldn't repeat.

Why only 20? Shouldn’t there be 40?

We spent some time in a “spa” together in LA. I couldn’t make a move I was so in awe of his incredible body. I will get my chance next month. 

I'm not into feet really and for the longest time I wondered why so many ads had pictures of feet. There does seems to be a pretty large number of blokes into it. 

Those who are concerned about climate change may prefer to meet with HydroelectricMathison or SolarPanelMathison.

Body as advertised. Kisses and gets into it. 

Anyone taken the plunge?

He quoted me $300.
Apparently I got the "hot daddy" discount.
He's working on a floating scale.

Contacted him via RM.  He is asking 500 per h.

Strange linear pattern.  Ejaculation shrapnel?

He even declined to be bottom …. I really like him ! 

Cool - I’d be interested to hear how it goes. 

He is either very new at this, or sophisticated enough to realize that there is a niche market for guys who don't try to look like pornstars.

I like his look. Maybe I’m part of the niche 🤷🏼

After being overweight for most of my adult life I don’t offend easily and have a thick skin. (Pun intended).  I’m not sure if you even read my post, but that’s just what I am doing, having gone from 477 to 250 lbs in three years.  My health is better than it has ever been the past ten years and my doctor tells me I’ve added years to my life.
The point of the post was to get feedback on what I should expect from providers at this size. 
I can assure you that any overweight person does not need to be told to get to a gym, we live in these bodies and whether or not we show it, we know deep down the effect excess weight has on our health.  Unsolicited advice like this is neither helpful or supportive.  

If you are in a position where you are worried about your weight then it should be a wake-up call to better spend your hard earned money in the gym and take it off. I speak from personal experience in this having shed close to 100 pounds over the past 10 years in multiple attempts. Sorry if I offend anyone but that’s my personal view on this. Health trumps pleasure.

Any recommendations for a manicure in Manhattan?

I really enjoy sharing tales of my sexual exploits with paid providers with at least a dozen of my real life friends. I regularly host house parties, ski trips, great adventure outings etc with a mix of personal friends and escorts. It keeps the mood lively and provides access for my regular friends to my favorite escorts. 
 
One of my favorite memories was a ski trip with 11 guys. 6 were escorts and 5 were my best gay friends. Two escorts literally dragged a mattress out of the bedroom onto the kitchen floor. They started going at it. A regular friend brought this to my attention and said “do you think I can join them?”  I said my suspicion is that if they wanted privacy, they’d have left the mattress in the bedroom. I’d ask, but I’m sure all are welcome. I was right, 3 quickly became 7. That weekend included rounds of strip poker, shirtless skiing, blow jobs in the loft where my orally talented friend just stayed up there and guys would periodically ascend the stairs and come down smiling. 
 
My friends have never expressed a stigma and hiring is such a substantial part of my life, and escorts are always around that it would be impossible not to discuss and call it what it is. 
 
Since my divorce, escorts are usually my plus one at dinner parties. My neighbors are a gay couple in their 50’s. They asked me point blank how I land such hot guys in their 20’s. I said it’s very easy. My checks always clear. Needless to say, they’ve never had a party I wasn’t invited to and my guests and I are usually the last to leave after the hot tub cover comes off. 
 
My motto is sharing is caring. 
 
 

I have brought this up with only one friend along with my penchant for erotic massages. He condemns both as hiring sex workers. Of course I live in a conservative state where even gay men fart red gas. 🤦🏻  Has made me shy about brining up the subject with anyone else. 

I have a cautionary tale on this topic.
I started hiring in my late twenties/early 30s. Almost 20 yrs ago. I had several close gay friends - a few were especially close and remained close until a year or so ago. I was always honest with them and told them about my lifestyle which I summarized as my gay friends were my family and my romantic needs were outsourced to external vendors i.e escorts.
A couple of these friends also knew descriptions of some of the guys I met and about my good and bad experiences. 
My general thinking was as I was honest and upfront about my choices, it should be ok. One friend expressed minor concerns and others being very progressive were non-judgemental. This lifestyle choice never seemed to come between our friendships. These friendships were my primary support structure.
Fast forward twenty years later, as the pandemic and related stresses rolled in, and as the political polarization grew, one of the progressive friends who could not hold a job down and over the years grew somewhat jealous of my modest success (basic ability to have a good paying job for all these years) had a fall out with me after getting drunk. The words that came out of his mouth were eye-opening. He said you might be successful, but you pay for s*x. "You are a pedophile that you go after young guys" ( I have never been with anyone under 23 - but I do admit my preference is for escorts between 25-35 ). He called me all sorts of names. The alcohol and built in jealousy brought out how he really felt about what I thought was an honest and upfront lifestyle that I personally have no qualms about as long as there is mutual consent and no exploitation. Another close friend, who departed a year before this one due to political differences (he was tea-party supporter and later a Trumpster and I am somewhat left of the center) which he grew especially sensitive about in the polarized pandemic years, also mentioned about me 'hiring hookers' as one of my bad traits in our final argument.
So 20-21 years ..after being very close friends - almost equivalent of a family - I realized that friends, no matter how progressive, harbored negative feelings toward my ability to hire the best looking guys to have some fun. Those came out eventually despite them telling me it was cool with them through the years.
So, my advice is do not overshare. Gay friendships fall apart, friends are not family. They will use this against you when they no longer want to be your friends. 
With this experience, I now have become very introvert.
