Your Man in Arlington

My doctor prescribed it for me and I use it after after sexual encounters. It's not 100% effective, but does very well at 85% and should protect against oral exposure, even if there's intercourse with condoms. My doctor explained that you can't continually take it, so he doesn't prescribe it for people who are hooking up 7 days a week. And, from what I understand, the thesis is that it will reduce overall transmission and thus its prevalence. There's more information here: Don’t Take Chances: Why Doxycycline is a Great Bet Against STIs WWW.UCSF.EDU A short course of antibiotics, Doxy-PEP, can prevent some STIs after condomless sex. You might note: "Doxy-Pep is an option to reduce the risk of syphilis, gonorrhea and chlamydia for transwomen as well as gay, bisexual or other men who have sex with men and who have had at least one of these STIs in the past 12 months." I've never had one of these STIs, but my doctor still recommended it for me anyway. Hope this helps!

I've only had 2 providers request a photo, and they were both hosting, so I can understand that from a security perspective. Otherwise they have seemed to have no interest in seeing a photo of me before meeting up, and I don't think it mattered to them and the service they provide. There is the issue of chemistry between a client and provider. It's not always there when you meet up in person, or it's only there in certain aspects of the experience. The best providers, however, seem to be able to manufacture chemistry out of thin air. So, no, you should never worry about being out of a provider's league; if that's how you feel with them, they're not doing their job well.

Looks like he's back in Philly now. His OF content looks to have gone in a way more sub-bottom daddy-pleaser direction. 🧐

Somewhat off topic, but if these drugs are not available or desirable to you, there is promising research into some natural sources of GLP-1, the hormone they imitate. As with any new territory in health, diet, fitness, etc... this does not constitute medical advice, though NPR is the secondary source translating the scientific results.

Definitely some or most assume this. For me, playtime consistently runs full hour or close to it. And, fortunately, I've had no problem so far letting them know I'd like to shower together and hang out chatting and possibly cuddling until I signal I'm ready to wrap things up.

Must have just happened, met with him yesterday. He does have a regular full time job and mentioned that not always working.

Today I got a Buddy Activity notification I hadn't seen before "Xxx has changed their rates." I don't see any rate information on his profile, even when I VPN to the UK (haven't tried the rest of the EU). Is RM preparing to roll out a new feature, or are rates only visible to particular countries?

Ended up pulling the trigger and definitely had positive experience. If anyone from the future searches for him, finds this thread, and I'm still around, feel free to PM me for more details; they might be helpful for you.

I have ended up with naturally spending around 90 to 100 minutes with most guys, including some massage before and some conversation after. I'm OK with that. One of my Dad's saying before he passed away was something along the lines of "Some of the best glasses of beer I've had are the ones I left half-full." I started this thread out of curiosity as to whether there was something I was missing out on, but now think it's better to view a meeting as value for the right amount of time than the full amount of time. For me, so far, that happens to be more than an hour but less than two.

I've mostly had strictly therapeutic massages over the past 20+ years, and they've always been in the nude if the therapist/provider is male.

That's quite something out of the gate. He may be real, but I have a problem reconciling "Style: Otter" and "Body Hair: Shaved" with the profile photos, which all seem to come from a Spanish-language social media influencer Instagram account.

Name change from DreamGuyMassages, briefly discussed here:

And possibly illegal.

An emerging trend?

Thanks for the info. I suspect he's not my particular scene then. 🤔

NiccoloStevenson is new to RM as of yesterday. No face pics. TGTBT?

He does have my mobile number, but we left it that I would confirm with him once I was in town, a couple of days before our meeting. Since his profile expired, I don't have access to his number anymore, so would have to rely on RM Messenger to reach out to him again.

This is why I never expect it from a provider, but am pleasantly surprised when it's something they want to do as part of our get together. There are some select few providers who are not sensitive to another guy's appearance, really just love sex, and/or get off on pleasing other guys. It's great to find someone who really loves their job!

I'm heading out of town next week and had set up a meeting with a provider at my destination. He's well reviewed on RM and positively mentioned here, so seems legit. However, his profile expired a few days ago and we hadn't switched to text messages yet. Not sure if RM messages will still work for him? Or if it's worth sponsoring his profile if I would like the meeting to happen? Or, whether that's a weird thing to do for a provider I haven't yet met? Or, whether I should just move on? Any insight from the forum would be much appreciated. Thanks!

I get that's not what YOU want, but fortunately there is a range of providers, both escort and massage, and hopefully everyone can find what they are looking for. And, I actually wasn't worried about his orgasm, just enjoying the experience as it unfolded, so yeah. 🤷‍♂️

Different, but still similar, I'm close friends with my Pilates instructor of 15 years, even though we met in a strictly professional client and trainer context. I'm not the only one, she's also friends with a handful of her other clients, celebrating holidays, going out dinner and shows, etc... with them. I think the culturally-driven romantic overtones that apply to a client/provider relationship make a friendship in that context more complex to navigate, but I know some people successfully do it (even though it's not something that would work for me right now).

This is the case for me, too. My husband and I have vastly different libidos, and we came to the decision that this was the best way for me to meet certain of my needs and really appreciate the clean boundary. I still want to like (well enough) and be friendly with providers, especially since not all of a meeting is hot and heave play time; but couldn't see becoming actual friends unless the provide/client phase of the relationship was over.

I totally agree with you on this. In my experience relayed above, I did pay a higher than therapeutic rate, and still did not request or expect to have him cum at the end. I think just happened to be a mutual chemistry thing, and I let him know I appreciated the experience the best way I knew how, with a big thank you and a big tip on top of that higher rate.

As I said, why not both? Especially since the massage was, in my opinion after 20+ years of getting therapeutic massages, seriously top notch.

"Newer to DC and looking for Friends and Mates! Love dudes who keep things natural and don’t trim or shave! Hit me up. Let’s chat, open to mode." I'm sure he means open to more, but this gives me a "get paid to hook up with a guy I think is hot" vibe. That said, I buddy-listed him and may eventually reach out. After all, I don't trim or shave!
