Is he quoting you for house cleaning?

Funny how human behavior conflicts with theory sometimes, right??? 🤪

I’m aware of a number who are just lying. But as I learn of substance abuse and addiction, I begin to wonder if they have capacity to stick with the protocols

I do. And I offer to show the results if they’d like.

Thank you to all for the thoughtful and well reasoned responses.

Regardless of the reason, the outcome is beyond horrific! Whats that autism variant that results in insatiable craving to eat?? If it’s the case, common practice is to lock up the food, not the kid!

It’s not demanded. Many don’t report. Or they say “ask me” And guys on RM are not “employed,” they are “engaged” as contractors. Labor laws do not apply to contractors. But I think the question here is “if they do report, should they be truthful” My interpretation of the consensus so far appears to be that “yes”

There are a couple of posts out there that touch the periphery of this question, but don’t hit it directly: In your opinion, when a provider specifically represents themselves as “Negative and on PReP” but is actually “Positive and Undetectable,” are they: blatantly lying playing the grey area since, IF they are sticking to the treatment protocol, there’s little difference ok and we shouldn’t worry about it since U=U something else And, is it your right to know and their responsibility to be transparent in disclosure

Kinda like some of the guys at the bars trying to look young 😂 Here’s what strikes me about the second picture - her smile looks unforced and sincere. I think she looks happy with the outcome.

Hahahaha. Yes! Typo! Correcting now !

try the presidential suite at The W in Times Square. I stayed there once and it was phenomenal. Several of you can chip in to split the cost. I’ll offer the courtyard at my house in the French Quarter 😉. There’s even an awesome local transman photographer who does outstanding work. I arranged shoots for two friends who needed content and a portfolio and he did a great job and showed amazing versatility to capitalize on their respective traits

He did this when, for the price of an iPad and a couple of websites, he could have had it without risk…

Interesting. I wouldn’t have guessed that Pride would be a big revenue moment since visitors tend to travel in groups.

My first wife’s maiden name was phonetically the singular version of mine. Spelled different but pronounced the same - just singular vs plural. 😉🤪 always interesting cocktail talk at parties. but this is a very sad situation. I hear of situations like this - akin to the elderly essentially staying stoically in place rather than seeking help and it makes me cry.

I’d say anything’s fair to ask for. But if you’re asking him to forgo compensation reserving himself for you, then he deserves fair compensation for the sacrifice.

I focus on the shot and not the aim….i don’t care where it goes 😂

I have a long time friend - after we had a mutual coming out, we decided it was time to consummate the friendship at a higher level. His response was exactly the same.

I agree…and for the record, I never suggested abstinence. I’m simply noting that Doxy is NOT effective against the bacteria causing Gonorrhea. A fact that I’m surprised many are unaware of in planning their testing frequency

Doxy is also not highly effective against gonorrhea which is bacterial https://www.cdc.gov/sti/prevention/doxy-pep.html

Aren’t we mixing two different questions — personal comfort/turn-ons and hygiene risk? You may feel it’s hypocritical in your own sexual context, and that’s fair as a personal preference. But the OP’s question was really about hygiene and whether cleaning off between partners is reasonable. Those are different issues. Eating ass, moving from ass to mouth, and moving between partners all carry different risk profiles. People can decide what level of risk they’re comfortable with, but I don’t think wanting to reduce exposure makes someone “too hygienic” or a mood killer.

Well, the lesson to me is not to put lidocaine on the boy - menthol or not 🤪 Hope you’ve recovered (mentally and physically 😂)

Personally, I don’t think you are being too hygienic. I’m amazed at the number of guys who pull me out and then start sucking. I definitely don’t want a kiss after that. There was a recent post here about the spread of shigella that taught me something

Hopefully the next trip will include “to MSY” in the itinerary 😉 …just not in the summertime 🥵🔥

Aftermath observation. A neighbor said he drove up to NOLA rather than fly. He couldn’t justify paying $600 for a ticket that was previously $50 on Spirit 😳1,800 mile round trip…30 hrs of windshield time (he’s self employed in a professional hourly billing profession), and about >70 gallons of gas to not spend $600 on a ticket. But it also makes me question how/why Spirit didn’t push the value proposition more to higher base fares - but then, I never flew Spirit

Personally, I think it’s fine to agree to what’s requested but - to be fair - to pay more or market rate if the encounter exceeds your expectation.
