When I first started meeting guys I ran into a handful of situations such as you describe. I didn't end the sessions because I was 1) somewhat intimidated, and, 2) horny. I regret not immediately ending the session because none of them ever went well and I left angry at myself and frustrated. The best way to deal with this is to avoid it in the first place: thorough vetting of someone you don't know and very clear communications in advance on what you expect with affirmation he understands (to be fair, no one is a mind reader and if I've not clearly expressed my interests I can't fault someone for not addressing them.) There are occasionally situations that arise when things simply aren't going well... he said he liked to kiss but didn't mention it was only on the cheek... his attention drifts away and he's clearly not focused on you (e.g., his cell phone)... something beyond basic lack of chemistry. This rarely happens to me now but when it does I call a timeout and explain that things aren't going well and, in a constructive way, ask if he has any suggestions. It's hard to not be angry or frustrated at this point but work under the assumption that ultimately he wants things to go well. If the situation can't be salvaged then I leave and write a fact-based review. (Assume that any review that you submit will have a rebuttal and stick to the facts.) Hang in there and focus on avoiding the problem in the first place.

From 10/3/2017 The chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway Warren Buffett said Tuesday that passive investing works in any market environment and so he'd be willing to wager again against active investing for the next 10 years. A decade ago, the billionaire investor made a million dollar bet that the S&P 500 will beat a basket of fund of hedge funds over the next 10 years, ending this year. He will likely win that bet by a large margin. The S&P 500 "will absolutely kill every one of the fund of funds," Buffett said on CNBC's "Squawk Box." "Passive investment in aggregate is going to beat active investment because of fees." The investor explained if you don't pay 2 percent or 3 percent of fees to financial advisers, the your payoff for investing in the broad market will be "very good" over time. When asked if he just got lucky with the timing of the bet, the Buffett said "the date of the start has nothing to do with it." He said is willing to do another bet on active versus passive as long as anybody wants to put up "a significant percentage of their net worth" on the wager. LINK

Allot of discussion on Cade here -> https://m4m-forum.org/threads/411-on-cade-maddox.128886/

Yeah... it’s the “mandatory “ part that would ruffle feathers. Once you start requiring people to save for their own retirement it’s a slippery slope to taking away automatic weapons and fluoridating water. And before you know it we’ll all have chips implanted into our brains.

I hadn’t heard that. Compulsory superannuation sounds like a good idea but it’d be labeled as socialist here... by Social Security recipients... and then be driven into the ground by legislators influenced by contributing special interests.

Commodities - I don’t care for them. For me to do well i would have to keep up with and understand the price drivers (eg., influence of geopolitical instability & foreign exchange on copper and emerging demand for biodiesel on soybeans). It’s just not something I would do well with, except perhaps for gold under certain circumstances. Infrastructure- I assume you mean it as a sector or asset class of equity. I think of infrastructure as being a fairly low yield investment that’s subject to allot of regulatory influence, particularly outside the US, that I simply can’t keep up with. I think if you’re tied in to the sector somehow and have an awareness of emerging influencers, especially in other regions, it can work out. Covered calls - If you’re becoming neutral or bearish then hedging like this can be a wise move to mitigate your risk It requires a little focus on a specific asset that I want don’t want to commit to. As with anything you have to factor in the fees you incur and decide if they are more than offset by whatever small gain you realize.

I’m guessing that for $90/hr the experience is in no way “escort-like”? What do all the code words mean? Techniques: Chair massage, Deep Tissue, Sports, Swedish In-studio amenities: Bottled Water, Tea, Massage Table, Private Restroom, Free Parking, Hot Towels, Music Mobile extras: Hot Towels, Music, Massage Table Additional services: Body scrubs, Body trimming

Actually I prefer the original

:p:p I’ve never heard that.

Judas is still waiting on his Uber and the bread is in the unsealed, white envelope.

I did a little research on him... there's some social media stuff out there that is supportive... and communicated with him about a meet. The timing didn't work out due to travel but would try again.

I just finished watching this. I normally avoid watching "poignant" movies... I never really feel good after seeing them and while I may become emotional it feels manufactured to me. But, I wasn't doing anything this afternoon so I watched. I liked it OK. I guess it highlights for me the way that I've changed over the years. When I was young the ending of an infatuation or crush or "falling in love" felt devastating. The very first guy who I was deeply infatuated with, Tim, died at 24. Today, when I'm lucky enough to become close to someone and feel strongly about them, and they about me, I enjoy every minute. And when it does end I'm sad but appreciative of having had the experience. Appreciation without bitterness. I guess that's the perspective that age brings. And when I die I hope to have lived a full life and have lots of scars... physical, emotional and spiritual. Maybe some regrets along the way but lots of happiness.

Yes.... I’ve found it to be completely worthless. You have to commit to a “date” for some amount without knowing anything about someone and pay the site to engage in a conversation with them.

I met Ryan on Feb 27 and had a very nice time. I had no issues with communication or anything else. I definitely didn't get any sense of the issues noted above in the comms leading up to our meeting.

I spent about 2 1/2 hours with this guy today and he is definitely a winner. A review is in progress but I will share that he looks exactly like his pics and, astoundingly, he is in my top 10 best kissers of all time and definitely superb for someone of his age. A sleeper

Has anyone had the opportunity to meet Dferzz - https://rentmen.eu/dferzz Also https://rentmasseur.com/DiegoM

I’ve a regular guy I seen when in Miami who is Cuban and a real sweetheart... always a pro and eager to please.

People giggle when they see “Trojan” printed on my equipment... because they can only read “Troj”.

Happy Birthday modador extraordinaire!

Happy Birthday big Brian !

Happy Birthday!!! And many spore!!!

I have not met him. I tried to set something up with him... proposing a date & time via RM email... and we got hung up on him requesting access to my RM photos (they are private). I explained three times that there was no code that he simply has to click on "request" but that just didn't seem to sink in and we never got any further. (In retrospect, its probably a good thing given that 1) seeing my pics was so important, and, 2) a pretty basic communication was so difficult.)
