I have to admit, I didn’t know what this was (yes, I know who ABBA is), but I had no idea what ABBA Voyage was about. I can’t believe it’s a 90-minute concert featuring them as avatars—looks pretty impressive. Is it creepy? I watched a video and saw they even created a special theater for the show in East London. From what I understand, there are tiered ticket options—my vote would definitely be for the dance booth tickets—did I get that right? A private section with your own seats for you and your friends, space to dance, and a bartender? Now that sounds like fun!

Kudos to the emotional support catfish twink.

You can’t avoid what other people may say. You have regulars, so clearly, it hasn’t been an issue—and that says a lot about you. This is the last thing you should worry about.

Attractiveness is subjective. What I find appealing, someone else might not. While it may catch my eye briefly, there has to be substance for me to maintain any real interest. Business IS business, and professionalism should always outweigh personal bias.

Some days, I feel old enough to think I’ve lived through those 18th-century revolutions myself, but fortunately, the founding fathers gave us the tools to avoid resorting to violence today. History does teach us a lot. Revolutions were often born out of extreme oppression and injustice, leaving people with few options. However, in today’s world, we have more tools—like laws, systems of accountability, and reform—to address systemic issues without resorting to violence.

The term “Daddy” can mean different things depending on the context and the person using it, but it generally refers to an older, more mature individual who exudes confidence, stability, and a nurturing or protective demeanor. For some, it’s about physical attraction to someone older and more experienced, often tied to a sense of security or wisdom. For others, it may carry a financial undertone, where the dynamic involves a desire for support or being taken care of materially. When younger people say they prefer “Daddy types,” it could be purely complimentary, signaling admiration for qualities like maturity, charisma, or life experience. On the other hand, it might hint at a relationship dynamic they’re seeking, whether emotional, psychological, or financial. The term “Daddy Issues” usually refers to unresolved feelings or patterns stemming from someone’s relationship with their father, which might influence their preferences or attachments in adulthood. But it’s important to remember that not everyone attracted to “Daddy types” fits this stereotype—sometimes, it’s just a genuine preference! Ultimately, it’s a spectrum, as you said, and context matters. If someone seems sincere, they probably are. And if their interest feels transactional, well, at least they’re being clear about it! Nothing wrong with cutting through the posturing and having an honest conversation to figure out where you both stand.

Agreed. For some, hiring an escort might address immediate physical needs, but over time, regular encounters can allow intimacy to develop. Repeated experiences with the same person can create a sense of familiarity, trust, and emotional connection—elements that I believe form the foundation of intimacy. This is why some people may find it difficult—understandably so—to separate the transactional nature of the arrangement from the emotional bond that emerges. After all, you are experiencing the very best of the provider every time you meet. Intimacy isn’t just about the physical act; it’s about feeling seen, understood, and valued. Providers excel at creating these moments, offering undivided attention and emotional presence. When these interactions are consistent, it’s natural for feelings of closeness to grow, blurring the lines between a paid service and a deeper emotional connection.

People don’t have to sympathize with the deceased, but premeditated murder is a crime. Period. Normalizing such behavior opens the door to future violence as a solution to injustice. This isn’t just about one person or incident—it’s about how we, as a society, respond to systemic harm. Unethical practices, like using AI to deny life-saving claims, require legal action, not vigilantism. Change through reform takes time—it’s frustrating! Always has been. Always will be. But, it’s the only way to create meaningful progress. We must demand accountability through the rule of law and address systemic failures. Justice must always be pursued within a legal framework to prevent further harm. I say that knowing the law doesn’t always get it right—but it’s the best system we have to ensure accountability and prevent chaos.

It takes a lot to make a movie, and even more to make a gay one. I applaud any actor—especially a straight actor—who is willing to lend their name and talent to help get a gay movie greenlit and its story told. (I’d also add his detective character from Knives Out to that list.)

The sad part about this case is that this young man felt the need to shoot and kill a man in broad daylight, not to mention the failures of our healthcare system.

https://goldenglobes.com The Golden Globe nominations are out. What did you think? Snubs? Surprises? My surprise? Hugh Grant snagged a nod for Best Actor… in a Musical or Comedy for Heretic, a psychological horror thriller where he plays a deranged madman who kidnaps and tortures two Mormon missionaries. Because nothing says “musical or comedy” like religious fanaticism, torture, and murder!

What a wasted life. Sad all around.

Keeping emotional boundaries is important for providers, I completely agree, especially when intimacy is involved. And for clients!! That said, as I mentioned, assuming personal boundaries weren’t crossed, if maintaining boundaries was the provider’s primary concern, it seems there could have been a more direct or professional way to handle it rather than pulling away or being subtle about it. Clear communication would benefit both parties—allowing him to maintain professionalism while still valuing the trust and consistency of a regular client. Subtlety tends to lose its power in situations like this—especially when there’s already been a level of intimacy involved. The act itself removes a layer of pretense, making subtle signals far less likely to land as intended.

As a man also up there in years, I understand where you’re coming from. But my advice would be: don’t make that assumption or decision for the provider. Even when I was younger, I couldn’t really know if a provider was genuinely attracted to me—and honestly, that was never something I could control then or now. Is my body the same as when I was 25? No. But I’ve learned it’s not about trying to get inside the provider’s head. That’s not something I need to question. At the end of the day, this is a business transaction. Let the provider decide how they feel about you, and I can say with certainty that for true professionals, it comes down to respect, decency, kindness, and hygiene. Focus on what you bring to the connection and the moments you share together.

Hands gripped on the sofa… the backwards baseball cap… yeah, he’s gonna feel it. 😍

Assuming personal boundaries weren’t being crossed, from a purely business standpoint, it doesn’t make much sense to me why a provider would push away a known, steady regular — especially after a vacation trip where he was paid even more. For the sake of argument, if his goal as you say was simply to secure a trip, you’d think he’d want to maintain or even strengthen the connection in hopes of getting more trips or consistent work. One thing to consider — and this is important for you — is whether you can truly move past this if you continue seeing him. If this situation is going to gnaw at you during sessions, especially when being intimate, you need to address it now. Otherwise, you’re spending money on an experience you won’t fully enjoy. Consider sending him that message (or a variation thereof). It allows you to gauge his response without making things awkward or jeopardizing future encounters. If what you really want is closure, then feel free to say what’s in your heart. Just keep in mind that’s a hard, if not impossible, road to come back from if you later decide you want to continue a professional relationship. Ultimately, the choice you need to make is whether you want to preserve that connection or express your hurt and disappointment at the risk of burning the bridge.

Eyes meet… that smile with the tongue… 😍

Age should not be a barrier to having a fulfilling sexual experience, especially with an escort. If it feels like it is, you haven’t found the right escort. They are out there.

Agreed. And I have enjoyed him 😊

There’s so much to love here—a true feast for the eyes. From his round, sculpted ass resting naturally against the chair, the curve of his crack leading to his dangling nut sack, to the beauty of his cock, the soft hairs on the inside of his legs, and his chiseled abs complemented by his rugged, hairy pitts...

You’re seen, you’re appreciated, and you’re making a difference. Sending love and strength your way ❤️.

I think he has one in his private gallery. He does have a job outside of this. Discretion is key, which I also greatly value and appreciate with him.

Based on your prerequisites, off the top of my head, I think Dave could be a good fit. I really enjoyed my time with him. https://rent.men/DaveXLNYC Another option to consider is Wagner, whom you’ve already met and have an established relationship and rapport with. Perhaps all it takes is asking, and he might be up for it. However, a caveat—if you don’t want to blur the boundaries of your relationship with your masseur, it’s worth reconsidering.

Your story is deeply personal, and it’s great to hear that this has positively impacted your mental health. However, if you’re still in a relationship and also seeing a provider regularly, it’s worth considering whether you’ve discussed this with your partner. Depending on the safety choices you make with escorts versus your partner (ie, condoms, raw, etc.), they have the right to know and make an informed decision for themselves. Open communication can also give them the opportunity to explore their own needs—whether with an escort or in other ways—to support their own well-being. Transparency and honesty can foster trust and a deeper connection in any partnership.
