I agree completely with that. Currently, I am getting tons of messages by a personal trainer who is 6'4" (too tall for me) and who says he's straight. That's just not for me but he keeps sending pics and messages and sounds so desperate which when you look at his pics seems hard to fathom. But I guess he moved to a new state recently and the dream hasn't worked out yet. He said "I made out with a guy once playing truth or dare and it wasn't bad." Yikes. It is an interesting place to peruse, as the poster said.

I think the very nature of a "daddy" relationship is that the daddy is going to be "more into you" than "you into him." If you're looking for someone you're "into" it sound like you need a boyfriend, not a daddy. To an extent, just like an escort, you're supposed to be playing a part and providing a service in exchange for "help" of some kind. If you're going to get hung up on whether you're "into" the guy or not, then it's clearly not for you.

Marriage? I'd run for the hills. Been there, done that a long time ago. No he hasn't asked for anything big. Just advice, helped him with supplements, but hasn't asked for anything. He may, we'll see, not particularly worried about it.

Once again you're generalizing. Looking for love? Not in a million years. I think specific financials should be spoken of in person. I would never make an agreement online or on facetime or skype. Too many variables. But the expectation on both sides should be understood before meeting.

Are you 12 years old or something? I just love comments like these when you don't know a damn fucking thing about me or anything else.

I sometimes wonder if some people are able to read and comprehend. Where did I say any of the stuff above? Jeez. At least make sense when you are going to respond to a post.

Meh. Cheap, like expensive, is in the eye of the beholder. And these kinds of arrangments don't have to be just about money. Broaden your horizons.

What I noticed is that the vast majority of guys list "Negotiable." The ones who list HIGH or SUBSTANTIAL invariably were not as remotely hot as they thought they were. I also didn't put my accurate net worth or salary on there. They don't need to know that. I was surprised by the number of uglees and fatties on that site. I still ask ... who is going to pay for that?

I figure even if it was just a one time thing, it was a great one time thing, and I'm perfectly fine with that.

Seeking arrangments is not a catch all for one type of situation contrary to what this poster thinks. Many of the guys on that site are escorts looking for sex, some are looking for monthly things, some are looking for little support, some are looking for a lot of support. It is what you and the other party make it and not some preconceived thing that is ordained by the urban dictionary.

If that's success, count me OUT.

It was 9 days on and off and I gave him time on his own whenever he wanted it. Some of the guys on the site are background checked. As for him, he gave me his real name and I checked his social media profile and stuff like that. We skyped several times before meeting and I was very comfortable. I realize I probably lucked into a very good -- and perhaps unique -- experience. I wouldn't want anyone to get the impression that it is like that on that site all the time. I had to wade through a bunch of cancelations, the guy who insisted on me having every conceivable thing to suit his insane vegan diet, and the plethora of twinks. But I did strike gold eventually. But it is just one man's experience. I'm sure others have bad ones to go with the good one.

What exactly would you think I'm up to? The idea of compensation never came up. He never raised. Was I supposed to?

Oh, and for those who have asked. I changed the city he's from and his age because I'm smart enough to know that others will try and find him and snatch him up. Not gonna happen guys

Honestly, I like my body parts to be real. Whenever I hear someone say "how amazing someone looks" and they've had years of plastic surgery, I laugh out loud. I don't think Cher looks amazing. I think she looks like a freak. I'd much rather see what she would have looked like if she hadn't been so worked over.

I haven't seen him in a long time but at least a couple of the pics he uses are around 9 years old. Doesn't mean he doesn't still look like that but ... he must be mid-30s by now.

From which side? I joined, filled out my profile, paid my $70 and then started searching for "sugar babies" -- an awful term -- and started getting messages myself. There are a few problems with the site in particular body type. The choices are basically average, a few extra pounds, slim, overweight and athletic. So almost all the guys choose "athletic" which can range the gamut. I asked for more pics, went to email and see how it went. I had a couple of false starts -- guys who seemed interested but then backed out at the last minute. But I do feel it was worth it for where I ended up. There are some sugar babies who have been on there 5 or 6 years. There are some escorts as well although that seems to be discouraged. Happy to answer any other questions.

Well, I thought the whole thing sounded kinda lame but I had a little time on my hands so I created a profile. I can't say I found much in the first few days: twinks, fakes, flakes, the usual assortment of game players. Then I met a guy who is an aspiring fitness model based in Toronto. I took a leap of faith and flew him to New York. Well, we just spent the better part of the past 10 days at my place in CT. It was amazing. He's 23, ripped, beautiful, and for this initially visit all he wanted was his airfare and other expenses covered. So, perhaps, it's not a bad site after all. It was worth the $70 initial fee.

Usually, but not on this subject!

You've given this a lot more thought than anyone else

You obviously don't read it so why do you care? The Saturday cultural section is far better than anything else that appears in print on a weekly basis. But you're too filled with your hate of anything that doesn't agree with you to see past your pinched nose.

Just stick to your pre-conceived notions. They give us Donald Trump. You've obviously never read the WSJ.

Love Ricky Gervais. Everyone thinks that but they all show up and act like the Globes are a big deal. So who's the fool? The Globes people or the Hollywood people (stars, producers)? The answer is obvious. The jokes on Hollywood not the Globes. Those ridiculous foreigners get the stars to suck up once per year and get everything they want out of it while the stars act like the Globes mean anything. Good for the funny foreigners!

Perhaps but not nearly as silly as the Emmy people who insist that Orange is the New Black is a drama.
