starman05 got a reaction from + ButchAtl in Real Talk on massage rates - let me know your thoughts
That said, I have paid the price (literally) thinking that paying more means you'll get better.
That's not always the case.
I have had two therapists over the years (decades?) -- both got out of the business for different reasons. They were both spectacular.
100% legit but it felt very intimate.

starman05 got a reaction from S_G in Tomasz in LA
well, once again this site has saved me some cash and a bad experience; no head rest is a huge deal breaker for me. Too bad. Looks like a nice friendly guy but I'm past the days of thinking, 'oh, maybe it'll work out.'

Profile was created 2.5 weeks ago and there have been four reviews posted -- all within the past week. All with a similar 'tone' and one of which allegedly paid $500 for a 90 min session.
Proceed with caution.

starman05 got a reaction from Whippoorwill in Real Talk on massage rates - let me know your thoughts
I usually go in with zero expectations.
If I pay $120 for a lousy massage, I feel like I've been ripped off; I paid close to $300 recently for a 90-minute massage, and it was heaven.
I'd rather save up for the latter than do 2 or 3 of the former.
There's one guy who is close to me and offers a fair price. I need to stick to him, but like a lot of people, I'm like hmmm,,,who's that over there?

You're very diplomatic. It's good to hear that he's not a jerk, but under the circumstances, I don't think he should be offering a sensual option. It's awesome that he's engaged and has consequently set stricter boundaries for the type of massages he provides, but given those new boundaries, it's misleading for him to offer anything but therapeutic. I'm glad you questioned him because it sounds like he would have accepted the full amount otherwise. That would have been really uncool. And there's no need for you to put yourself down whatsoever

starman05 reacted to + Vegas_Millennial in Hiring licensed masseurs vs. non-licensed
This 👆 💯.
As for licenses, I wish the government spent more time and effort enforcing driving without a license instead of rubbing someone's glutes without a license.

starman05 reacted to Marc in Calif in Erick in NYC
But he's been a "professional dancer" since the age of 12. And he has "learned various therapeutic techniques to heal, treat and improve the performance of the body through massage and physiotherapy."
His massage was skimpy and not great? I'm shocked. Just shocked! 😎

Sexy guy. Mediocre massage, standoffish, messy apartment…. Once was too many.

starman05 reacted to + Jamesp in FitGabriel in NYC
Wow, that’s some eye-watering eye candy. That rate is higher than what a lot of people on Deli charge. In my experience, when it comes to massages, prices like that usually mean they don’t expect you to come back. EVER

Don’t be ashamed…we all pay the “stupid tax” at some point. Learn from it and move on. And thank you for making us aware - you probably saved someone else from paying the tax on this dude.

starman05 reacted to + nycman in Warning: PartyMonsterBoy currently in DC
Not to rub salt in the wound, but this seems kind of silly.
Why would "being on the way" make any difference?
Think with your big head, bro.
Lesson learned.
Take the hit and move on.
And remember you’re not alone.
We’ve all been there.

starman05 got a reaction from Hyattsville in Tipping?
I tipped a guy once on a price that was high but worth it
he counted the money in front of me and started to give me the extra back
i said that’s a tip
he smiled and said thank you

starman05 got a reaction from marylander1940 in When providers not truthful about size
no, not that size!
I'm talking about height.
I'm not tall nor am I a shrimp. I hit about 5'6 1/2" on a good day and I tell people I'm 5'7" and no one ever gives me a hard time (no pun intended).
I saw a massage provider recently who advertised as 6'1". That's a great height given that resting my head on a guy's pec is one of my favorite things. Granted, that only happens with a hug hello and goodbye with a masseur.
The provider I saw was maybe 5'10 or 5'11. He was great and I'll definitely repeat.
But I'm just wondering if anyone else runs into height discrepancies?

starman05 reacted to JMS in 411 on Josephcarrington in San Diego from West Hollywood
I just don't understand how someone could put up a fake profile, accept appointments, and then show up looking completely different. What do they do or say when that happens? Since I've never had the experience, I just can't wrap my head around it. How fortunate for us to have this site and so many good "detectives."
