I often get "babe" from Brazilians and "dear" from Eastern Europeans. I put it down to translation and ignore.

The guy with the burgers?

When I see a one-finger salute I move on the the next ad.

Most of my hiring is in Germany and through Planet Romeo. Recently the age in my profile turned to 60. I am now much more likely to get no response to a first inquiry. Yes, I still have good options, but fewer.

Any knowledge: https://rentmen.eu/ItalianScorpion The only previous reference I found here was that he changed names (not a good sign).

Try Berlin. There's something/one there for everyone/thing.

Maybe the most important bit of information in his ad it that he is "Into:...PNP"

I liked the e-mail feature because they I could manage the conversation through a dedicated e-mail account that I only accessed by logging in on line. If I sent a simple SMS, then my phone number was floating around out there and I had the potential problem of my phone announcing a message at an inopportune moment. I would give out my number once a date was set, but not before. I may simply stop using RM. Fortunately most of my hiring is done outside of the US through Planet Romeo.

I would never hire an escort who used the name jacktheripper.

Looks like he flunked photoshopping.

Me too. After a while I did reply saying that I was flattered by his interest, that I was not going to hire him, and that I wished him well. He went away.

But the review is effective: I wouldn't hire Rainer.

I strongly suggest looking at Planet Romeo/Hunqz as well as RM. You will find more to pick from on PR, and most all on RM are there too. Some charge less to a client coming from PR than to one from RM.

Hmm. One thing that changed is fashion. 15 years ago hairless, buffed, smooth bodies were the rage. Now hair is popular. If you want buff you have less to pick from, but it does not mean that the hairy apes do not provide good service. Put it differently, if you like pizza, but all restos around are Chinese, you will be unhappy even if they are top Chinese. The flakiness and communication problems come, I think, from our smart phone world. Many escorts now were still in short pants 15 years ago. They don't know anything other than a smart phone and the manners (or lack thereof to my mind) in using one. I will let others, if they wish, think how this affects behavior. I have to clean the living room.

Maybe we should just read what Peter Hung and Benjamin Nicholas have said and leave it alone. -- The OP said that he had made his expectations clear in advance. -- From where I sit, for the client to expect the escort to make the first move is not unwarranted. One thing I pay for is the illusion of being desired.

What a sad story. He sounds like a creep and a con artist. I am sorry you were victimized, but he is not the only one and you are not alone.

For me, at least, anal muscles are controlled by the brain. If you feel comfortable with your partner and trust him it will be easier to relax. A bit of conversation, some smiles, a laugh. For me kissing is also important. Tell yourself to relax, to go with the flow, to enjoy this hot man. It's a little like peeing: nothing comes unless you tell the bladder to open up. The ass won't loosen until you tell it too. Manipulation, teasing, and rimming help like massaging a tight muscle, but they also tell you that your partner doesn't want to hurt you, knows what he is doing, and most importantly, that you are safe. An experienced top with a big dick should understand this, but there are plenty who approach a bottom like they are fucking the Lincoln Tunnel. I have even found that some Spanish and Latin American guys fuck like they are excavating for a swimming pool. These I have to remind that my internal organs are fine where they are and do not need rearranged. And also, a man I knew many years ago who had more experience than most said, "sometimes the little ones hurt more because they poke you, but you can just ride a big one."

Sorry. I see now there is another thread.

The first picture is a mood changer for sure, but then we get a couple dozen scowls and a few little dogs. Any one know or know of him? https://rentmen.eu/ChristianRioz

The pictures and name, TRON-XL, are used in a Planet Romeo/Hunqz ad listing Berlin as his location. He signs on to this Berlin ad frequently, suggesting that he is probably there. https://www.planetromeo.com/hunq/TRON-XL

The RM ad is expired. Has Max moved on?

On RM he's 22, and on masseurfinder he has 7 years experience. But I like it that he smiles.

I don't mind sending a pic. Clients pick escorts; escorts pick clients. It seems natural to want to see what the other looks like. When someone cares what I look like, then I think I may be in for a more human encounter. It is also true that I don't think I have ever been asked for a pic in the US. Most of my hiring is in Europe and through GayRomeo. I have a picture in my profil and many escorts state in theirs that they require a pick of the client.

Practices are changing, at least in Berlin where I do most of my hiring. In the past an escort who refused to wear a condom was rare. Those that offered bare charged more for it. Now virtually every escort will do bare and a disconcertingly large number refuse dates when condoms are required. I now feel that insisting on a condom greatly reduces the number of available escorts and disappoints most of the others. The arguments are "I'm negative and on prep" and "I'm undetectable." The change seems to have accelerated after Prep became available through the government health insurance plans. Those willing to wear condoms are mostly from Latin America or southern or eastern Europe. What do you all encounter in the US and what do you do? (please, I am not asking WHY you do it, just WHAT you do)

I hire extensively in Europe and use PlanetRomeo/Hunqz exclusively. Yes, some PR guys are on RentMen too, but they charge more on RentMen because they can get free-spending Americans who don't know local rates.
