Based on the comments in this thread, I booked a 90-minute session with Alex Blessings, and all I can say is wow: This was one of the best erotic massage experiences I have ever had, in my many, many years of getting erotic massages. Alex is beyond beautiful with gentle knowing hands, the therapeutic component of his massage was flawless, the erotic component was beyond my dreams--and the view from his his apartment is a New York experience in and of itself. I know on this board we say YMMV, but I cannot believe anyone actually felt his touch and came away with anything bad to say. He is not just one of my favorite masseurs, he is one of my favorite people. I plan to avail myself of his Blessings next time I come to NY. Maybe every time.

Just had a weird interaction with him. When I asked about his erotic massage--he has it checked off--he asked me to text him and when I did, he immediately texted back "Do you want to stick it in? Do you want to rim me?" Before I had a chance to answer he repeated the questions, and then when I answered them--I said that as long as I was paying, I would rather he did those things to ME--at that point he accused me of trying to get an escort session for a massage price. (Which is something I would NEVER do--and hadn't done.) I didn't intend to ask for an escort session--he escalated to that, not me. As some of you here know, I am an aficionado of the many shades of erotic massage, which usually DON'T progress to topping and bottoming--and if they do, I always express my gratitude and tip appropriately. Finally he made the statement "Well, 9 times out of 10 when guys mention erotic massage, they just want to get fucked." I said "Well, that may be your experience but it isn't true about me, and you shouldn't have assumed it was." By that time in the chat, he was the LAST person in the world I wanted to get naked and vulnerable in front of. He proceeded to block me, which I consider a bullet dodged. Lesson learned: If anyone starts a conversation with the words "Do you want to stick it in?"--end it right there.

I would choose the XL version over the NYC version, but maybe that's just me.

Asking again, as they say, "for a friend."

"Some of the conversation around drug resistance with Doxy PEP is likely fueled by stigma, bias, and homophobia. The idea that we would withhold an effective, evidence-based prevention intervention from gay, bi, and Queer men, and trans folx having condomless sex is simply unacceptable. They may ask the question, 'Why not just use condoms?' We’ve heard it all before, especially when PrEP rolled out more than 10 years ago."

SIMON! Ohhhhh....

Never pay up front. If asked to do so, turn around and walk out the door. Briskly. Do not turn back, even if asked.

If you were late, it was entirely your fault. It is unreasonable to expect a masseur to go BEYOND the agreed-upon time. How do you feel when a friend or business appointment keeps you waiting? Next time, manage your time better and don't blame the masseur.

Nice.

Are you the one wearing the socks?

Not sure what's going on with the high prices some reviews are quoting. He DM'd me a very reasonable $220 for an hour on RentMasseur and sent a very handsome face/body pic in a Speedo. I'm away the days he is here, or I would definitely try him.

I left a good review on RentMasseur in April 2023. Check the search function here--I think there's a previous thread.

SIMON! <GASP!!!> I'LL BE RIGHT THERE!

I'm about to post another glowing review. He just gave me my dream massage.

Good. He's a sweetheart.

He is a genuine healer, a yogi, a shaman, and a deeply spiritual man with a loving soul. Any time you spend with him--whether for massage or for acupuncture--will have a lasting and beneficial effect. If you're looking for a rub-with-release, you may or may not find that, but go and be open to something more spiritual and you will leave healed.

Alls I can say is "Yippee-yi-oh-ki-yay!"

Saddling up tomorrow...

Actually, yes, it does.

As one famous Bostonian once said, "Ask not what you can do to your escort. Ask what your escort can do to you."

It means you should be clear in advance what your hopes and expectations are, because chances are the masseur defines "erotic" differently than you do.

Here's what I posted on RentMasseur the next morning. I paid $240 for an hour and I was there for 75 minutes: === Jay gives one of the most spectacular erotic massages I have ever had. But Jay also gives one of the most spectacular therapeutic massages I've ever had. And for those of us who come here looking for a combination of the two, it is the rare masseur who rates a 10 out of 10 on every level. So book a massage and take a deep breath, You are about to experience a perfect erotic massage. === I said his name is a little misleading, because it is NOT a BDSM session (although, as people on this board like to say, "YMMV"). It's one of those erotic massages where it's best to relax and let the masseur control the experience. He's very handsome and very take-charge, so if that combination is sexy to you, book him! But if you're a total top or a dom yourself, he might not be the guy for you.

I never reported back, but he was excellent. The name is a little bit misleading (and a little bit not).

Thinking of giving him a try. Anyone have experience with him?
