It was a feeling I got from reading previous entries (both those who had positive and not so positive experiences) as well as a few direct messages.
 
At no point did I disparage the masseur. I even said he was polite over text.
 
However, I have been on the receiving end of strangers who scowl or look you up and down as a way of telling you "I don't like you," "I don't like your kind," and/or "do not engage with me."
 
You can often tell when a masseur opens a door, or you walk into a bar or spa, how people feel about you from one look.

I hope this is the very last time TAR invites a team from Big Brother.

There are stranger kinks out there than good grammar and spelling. I admit, a hot guy who is also able to assemble words in a logical and intelligent fashion does sorta turn me on. It certainly doesn’t hurt.

In preparation for an upcoming business trip, I am starting to make a list of potential encounters. Am I being too picky? I’ve always enjoyed beauty, brains, and a little proofreading along the way. A current ad reads,
 
Drama free & Descreet
Erotic message 150.00
serious inquiry's only please
 
Ah, yes, those erotic messages, and being descreet will no doubt entice me to send multiple inquiry’s.

That's a lot of cash just to do some sexting. I wonder how much he charges to unlock his private photo's?

I've taken a teaspoon of sugar-free Metamucil in water every day for 20+ years. I also eat a lot of other dietary fiber and drink a lot of water. That comes to about $0.16/day, although you could buy the same generic from any of the major retailers for less than that. I'm not much of a bottom, and properly cleaning out takes more effort in any case -- no single product or practice can ensure the lower digestive tract is empty and clean, it takes a multi-pronged approach. Wildly overpriced capsules are, at best, a pricey placebo.

I always suspected I might not be gay. I guess this confirms it; I'm officially not gay. (But I do love it when a man cums in my mouth!)

So?
 
Companies choose spokespeople all the time that some members of the target audience don't like. In my case Davey Wavey personifies the shallow, vain phoniness of the modern day gay community.

"Leo Laurent, Today's review" seems pretty specific IMO.

A "pissy, queeny and entitled" lil escort. Next!!!

So, which part was the client's fault? The part where the credit card was declined, the security check of his ID, or the turndown service that was scheduled to occur during the appointment?

Everything about “Leo” screams “stay away”

Client was more than patient. Just trying to make the best out of a situation that was clearly deteriorating and of course, in the response, it was all his fault for the old reliable, bad hygiene. So original and so classy. I guess in this case the escort's primary pic (spread 'em and weep?) turned out to be truth in advertising. As in, what an asshole.
 
Have never seen the allure of this guy anyway. Looks like given half the chance, he would have shot Versace.

"disappointing experience with him"
 
"nothing exciting at all"
 
"okay massage"
 
"wouldn't repeat"
 
"very arrogant"
 
All in the last 18 months. What more do you need to know?

You said you have been going to him for a few years. By the time I have gone to ANY masseur for a few years we are on a comfortable, friendly basis. Which means that after going to the same guy for that long you should be able to discuss this freely with him. What you wrote in your post is a question you should be able to pose to him, after knowing him for that long. You asked in your post if you should talk to him. YES! You are not a mind reader. Ask him, and discuss this with him. He has the answers to your questions.....not the forum members.

See a therapist!
 
Sorry, couldn’t help myself. But seriously, it’s most likely that you’re not the first. Make another appointment.

I'm calm, and it wasn't directed at you specifically! It's something that I've seen frequently, and I always think they mean psychological or similar therapy rather than massage therapy when I first read it. If someone says they are going to see their therapist, masseur is not the first type of therapist I think of, that's all. I characterised what I said as a rant for a reason!

I recognise that this is the Spa. That means it's about masseurs. But when someone says things about their interactions with a therapist, I don't read masseur, I read psych. A 'therapist' deals with your 'issues'. If those issues are knots in your muscles, it's a fucking masseur that treats it, not a 'therapist'. If you're going to drop part of 'massage therapist' it's the therapist part, not the massage part that gets dropped. *Ends rant*

Your over thinking it.

Ridiculous headline. Congratulation to them but they are most definitely not "having a baby".

Completely false analogy.

Completely false analogy.

I got an STD once from an escort. It was unsafe oral (we used condoms for anal). He was the only one I had been with in a while. I just reached out to him and let him know - didn't confront him or get mad at him. He had no idea that he was infected - and then I told him, and he had that "Ah ha" moment. I just would want to be warned myself...better to be safe. Thankfully it was a treatable STD

There is no need to disclose or hint as to who the masseur may be. It's purely hearsay, as it is hard to pinpoint exactly where an infection may come from unless you've only had one partner, as some STDs can stay symptomless for a long time and may never show outward symptoms. It can destroy their business and/or reputation for no reason. STDs are unfortunately a fact of life and you can be a carrier with no symptoms. Unless you are paying them to be celibate aside from your session, there is no room to judge. And there is no shame in having one. We wouldn't go on the internet and warn people about someone who has a cold, and that can be much more debilitating than a symptomless STD. We're all adults here.
 
That being said, I would just say I tested positive for something and leave it at that. I had a masseur years ago text me to say he had an STD. I thought he was awesome for doing that and I was able to get tested myself. I also didn't avoid going to him in the future. You get tested and/or treated and go on.

I use a combination of frozen crisco and butter in my pie crusts. I now have a new visual to occupy my mind while I'm bent over the table rolling out the dough.
