But remember, I am the old crank who wants to stay in RM messenger until the date is set. So I am with you on this even if I have a different solution.

So, here's my tire-kicking:
-- are you interested in meeting me? Not every provider is. I'm 70.
-- kissing?  It's important so I ask even if it is mentioned in the ad.
-- safe or bare? Not often specified in an ad.
-- compensation? I have my limits too.
Only the last one gets answered in every case. I prefer to get past these before going to a telephone number.  If some of you guys don't like that, there are others in the business. I find providers to have fun with, and if I don't, well, I get to keep the money.  Wheeeeeeee!

I am with you, but I think the boys feel:
1. that they are too lazy to log in to RM to reply
2.that they do not want a record of their activities on RM in case......
I sympathize with the second concern, but think it unavoidable. The first, well I just go on to the next guy.

Simple.  Some of us contact multiple providers before making a decision: to make sure they are interested, to check a few requirements, to see how they respond.  Doing it by text puts a lot of strange numbers in my phone and increases the risk of an inappropriate message ("hey stud, wanna....") popping up at an inappropriate time (it happens).  Of course, once the date is firm I have no problem switching to text.

$300 ain't "cheap" and is quite enough "wealth to share."

Don't be snide.  I don't pay $350 either.  It's the only thing I can do to fight exploding prices. There are others, however, who seem to like to pay more....oops, I was almost snide.

No

Not a provider, but in general, tipping is a US-only phenomenon so I’d venture to say it’s not the norm for massages in the UK.

In general, he can call himself whatever he wants.  My only concern is how he acts with me. The worry, however, is that a self-identified "straight" guy might have unexpected limits and be less free in his actions. This can be disappointing.

We thought they'd never end
We'd sing and dance forever and a day
We'd live the life we choose
We'd fight and never lose
For we were young and sure to have our way."

I understand completely. It's a deal-breaker for me too.  But I always ask whether it is listed or not. Sometimes I get a pleasant surprise.
