Otterlybelievable

Jared’s been 28 since at least 2022 when I saw him (when I was 28, coincidentally enough)

@BrazilianDOM Your deposit policy is not standard practice - it will cost you business.  

I saw this guys profile and looked good so I reached out.  His response:
250 per hour, 150 for half hour, and i require the half payment deposit for security purpose and located downtown
 
Hard pass for me based on price, location and especially down payment
 
Just sharing this for others !!!

I'll join the chorus: Don't assume, ask.  One of my worst hires was a masseur who clearly used provocative text and racy photos to suggest a very erotic massage was on offer when the reality was quite different.

Went recently on a Saturday while in the area. The facility itself is kind of a dump tbh but not the worst. The crowd was a mixed bag of older guys and a few younger guys. I actually found it relaxing and def had a fun time. If you’re nearby I’d recommend a visit (it was pretty inexpensive) but wouldn’t trek out there if it’s not convenient. 

Anybody know who these guys are?

I have learned to not rely solely on one masseur. When they decide to move, retire, etc., then I'm left scrambling to find a new masseur. I tend to rotate between 2 or 3 regulars and I still try new masseurs on occasion.

I have two local, affordable, easy-to-schedule guys who I know find me attractive (or at least fun to work on), give great therapeutic massage with consistent and enjoyable extras. Recently found two more local guys who I'm more attracted to, the extras go a little further, still a good therapeutic base, but definitely more money. But variety is the spice of life, and it's fun to try out a visitor or sample the locals in a new place when visiting!

The primary goal for me in booking a massage is the massage. Curiosity leads one to try new providers, but if I know that my body needs some work, I have three in my region who have the training, talent and experience that suit me. If I want full service provided, I will book an escort based only on pics (and recs here)

$500 for therapeutic is highway robbery.

I think there’s an excitement in the new - the anxiety, the allure, the not knowing. But I keep going back to familiar providers mostly because 1. the ones who made me feel like they enjoyed it too are top of the roster and 2. some of the new guys pricing has gotten out of whack for me (yesterday a provider quoted $500 for a 50 min strictly therapeutic massage). Sometimes consistency beats excitement. 

I have seen Jake a few times.  He's very nice and I don't think he would care if you mentioned that you have seen him.  However, he identifies as totally straight.  The massage is MN/MT w/ HE, but he's not going to be into much deeper.
If you saw his porn, you know he has an identical twin, who also massages.  He operates out of Dallas most of the time, but it looks like he is currently in the Austin area.  https://rentmasseur.com/BoyNXTDoor. His name is Jared. I saw him once when I was in Dallas.  Jared is bisexual and their massage techniques are very similar, but Jared is a little more sensual.
They also have a younger brother, who much be traveling right now because I'm not finding his profile, who also massages.  He's cute and is either gay or bi.  
None of them massage or play together.    If you are wanting more than just a massage w/ HE, then Jake may not work for you.  You might try Jared.  

I will say, this thread is super fascinating to me.  I've been intensely curious about trying this guy's massage since I do actually seek real, legit, super strong deep tissue massages. I am reticent for two connected reasons: price seems exaggerated for only 45 minutes.  I usually need 90 minutes to get all areas done properly, especially my legs because I do a lot of running, so 45 mins is basically nothing no matter what the intensity level is.  I find prices have become ridiculous in any case...massages in spas/parlors USED to be a going-rate of $1/€1 per minute and maybe a slight increase depending on style of massage, but the fact that people are charging well over 100 currency units for an hour is ridiculous.  Anyway...that aside, he's obviously super sexy and the whole straight guy probably bi-curious thing IS a turn-on.

That said, I have a (gay) Ukrainian masseur I use in Florida who is not only super sexy but is very adamant about his professionalism. I've seen him about 4 times total and each time there is such sexual tension and chemistry but he always resists.  In fact, the first time with him, when I didn't even know he was gay so I had zero expectations, he said that if I had wanted to play with myself it was fine with him, when I suggested that he play with me and I play with him he told me his professional boundaries but then opened up his boxers (he was in underwear the whole massage) to reveal a very hard cock...so he was turned on, definitely interested, but nothing has ever happened.  He said at another session that if we had met in a bar or club or app for sure we would have had sex but since I am his client he won't do it.

And let's face it. Each masseur is going to have his boundaries and what/who he's willing to bend them for.  I had a masseur who listed that he was top only on one of his profiles (I do try to cross reference between all the various sites, also in case they happen to list different prices), after the massage he was riding me like a cowboy...I asked him about it and he said that he's really more bottom but he doesn't advertise bottoming for clients because it's something he wants to do only if there is a real attraction and desire and not be paid to be fucked, that it's easier for him to top someone he's less into than for him to be fucked by them.  So it could also be the same thing with Mr. (C)KarpathianWolf...he might have fairly rigid boundaries which do bend for certain clients with certain body types or looks and who knows...maybe he's one of those guys that will let his curiosity develop only after multiple sessions. That has happened, too.

If coming from work, easy parking and a shower. Would love option for body scrub and 4-hander. Definitely no upsell. 

I’ve booked him twice and both times were great experiences and he’s been really friendly (even texting afterwards to wish me a great night and say he hopes I enjoyed the massage, etc). But ever since, anytime he’s been in town and I’ve reached out to him with a general inquiry (“hey, saw that you’re back in my town, would love to book with you if you’re available on these days at these times”), it’s been radio silence. I know he’s definitely one of the more in demand traveling masseurs but after apparently being ghosted, I can’t say I’d personally recommend him. 

Anybody? He seems very fine

Yes, but I do enjoy the company of men. Sorry, I missed the requirement that bisexuals weren't allowed. I'd better cancel my subscription. 
It's not like I'm suggesting women, or posting sexy photos of females. Someone just made the erroneous comment that nobody here would be interested in a masseuse,  and  I was pointing out he was wrong. I don't think that's a violation of this site.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I don't go into a massage session with any intention of having sex, even if it's listed as sensual. For me, the massage is the most important thing and I don't wish to sacrifice the quality of a good massage for the possibility of having sex.
I typically book therapeutic over sensual, but will opt for sensual if that means the masseur is also naked. I'm a bit of a nudist, so it's always nice when a masseur will also go naked during a sensual massage session. But getting a sensual massage or us both being naked doesn't mean sex. For me, being naked together is what makes the massage sensual and sensual does not need to end with anyone getting off. I've found having a masseur jerk me off to be a bit awkward and, honestly, I feel I can do a better job of that on my own.

Sure, skin on skin contact, or when a masseur's hand (or other body part) briefly glides across your balls/ass/dick is generally exciting and creates anticipation...but that can also ruin the moment for me, which should be focusing on the massage itself. 

I also understand that masseurs have different interpretations of what's involved with sensual massage or what should be classified as erotic. What I described above may sometimes be considered more erotic (though, I see an erotic massage as the gateway towards more sexual activities), so I may opt to book the erotic if that means the masseur will be naked too - however, I will make it clear up front what my expectations are, just so we're both on the same page. 

I once gave a large “tip” after a massage went way beyond what was expected and the masseur seemed offended. He handed all the excess back to me and said rather coldly “I don’t do that for money.”
So I just firmly believe people outside the room should withhold comment and do what works best for them and the people they see. I see people who charge $200 and I pay $200, even though things may go well beyond standard service. But I see them multiple times a month and we have a nice relationship., such as it is. 
I’m no Adonis just getting it because. I’m pushing 60. But I am a regular. I show up on time and clean. I don’t push for anything the masseur doesn’t want to give and understand some days will be different from others. We always laugh a lot. There is never any drama. And I’m generally flexible on time - I don’t demand 6pm on Friday. I cheerfully take a slot that might otherwise be empty for them. I also don’t want to be thought of as a rich guy throwing money around just because I can to get exactly what I want. That’s offensive  
It works me and the folks I see and nothing regarding payment needs to be justified to anyone else. So tip away. I would never discourage that. But understand that there may be some other things just as important or perhaps more important in the transaction and don’t judge what other people do. 

completely disagree. I got a massage the other day and wasn't expecting penetration. The masseur got really turned on by my body, kept complimenting it and eventually said "I need to fuck you". I consented. I'm not going to pay him extra because he wanted to fuck me. He should give me discount! (kidding...maybe).

And, yet, that's EXACTLY what happened to me last week. I booked a sensual massage with someone I hadn't met before. And 20 minutes in, he started rimming me. Nature took its course, and throughout, he was very verbal and highly specific about what he found attractive about me. I asked him why he doesn't list on Rent.men and he said that he can't fake being turned on. That he's tried but if he's not into a guy, his "dick won't work." He even said in his personal life that he's met up with super hot guys and if there's no connection, it doesn't work out. So being a masseur means he can choose who he wants to go further than MT/HE based on whether or not he finds them attractive. 

I personally don’t find on demand paid sex interesting. I’ve only done it twice and both times were unsatisfactory to me even though both guys were exactly my physical type. A massage gets us to the same room together generally unclothed, so the big logistics hurdles are over. Then if two consenting adults want to go for it, it’s more exciting than an explicit sex transaction, at least for me. 
 
If a masseur who has not committed to sex decides he actually wants to have sex with me, that’s a lot more fun in my book. 

Why is it that I prefer the amateur/spy-type massage videos over those scripted professional series? 

When someone posts a photo of a handsome young man and then shows up NOT being that same person, the bait and switch is already going to piss me off, and the "he's handsome too" attitude isn't likely to make me forget that I'm being scammed. 
Not sure how anyone COULD be impressed.
