That I'm an extrovert......and that I'm "innocent" ???.

As a vers guy, I'm on the hunt for more eager, hungry bottoms these days. So many top providers that truly verse guys and the bottoms stand out to me.... @asianmusclebttm has my attention if I ever make it his way! Bottoms and totally vers guys to the front of the line...truly vers guys seem even more unique, but I could be wrong. My experience is limited relative to others in this forum.

Please. Move to. America. ??? So much common sense. No pretense. No condescension. Considerate. Sober. Straightforward and naughty. Also BRAINS! Damn, if I don't have a soft spot for brainy, naughty guys coupled with healthy humility and the right "equipment" ??. More superlatives are probably in order, but this is already a bit much, I know. I've already crossed the line?. I think I might be in love, Jamie! ? Keep up the good work! To do list: Trip to London.

Yeah, I would expect it to be a bit of both. For me, when I react, in almost all cases I recall, it's based on the content of the message.

Sincere thoughts and prayers for @Guy Fawkes. It's refreshing and uplifting to see friends and acquaintances show concern, and also provide significant and meaningful aid - even from hundreds/thousands of miles away. And the added complications of Covid. I echo the hopes of a previous poster for benefits from improved treatments. Blessings.

Working at a K-Mart during the Holidays some 25-27 years ago. I was a utility. I have never been in a work environment before or since where people were so miserable from the top down. It was totally depressing to me and sad. It's the only job I have ever just quit and walked away from without giving notice. I left it to work for a small utility company where I literally dug ditches. I was much happier even though the work was more physically demanding. My hands stayed calloused and bloody that next year, but I wasn't surrounded by mediocrity and that was a welcomed change.

Interesting question. I've always been an "old soul," but hadn't thought of myself as a "daddy" sexually until rather recently. Not sure how I feel about it. I suppose there's not much to be done about it but embrace it, right? Seems younger guys (and even some older) get turned on by it...so I'm thinking I'll make the most of it and start playing it up and enjoy it.

Just cumbersome. When I travel, I DO have a backpack I've had for years for spare change if necessary. Otherwise, I don't have need to carry change in my daily life. In daily life, if I do wind up with change it goes in my pocket, and I empty my pocket as soon as I get home or back to my vehicle. I carry a wallet for other daily items - ID/CC/Cash. Perhaps if I omitted the wallet, I might carry an alternative, but can't see myself carrying both. I would be annoyed. ?

This is NOT acceptable or correct, and never should be. Screw Merriam-Webster for selling out! They have "undoubtably" lost their way. ?

No purses or man bags to this point for me. I hate carrying change, anyway. Never had a coin purse. Any change goes in the console in my vehicle, or if in my pocket goes into a large jar which ultimately gets donated to a worthy cause of my choice. On the subject, I like the show, "Downton Abbey." And in college, I watched the soap opera, "Passions." Does that count? ? Edit: Oh yeah...and in the self care department - Botox on occasion.

Not looking for a jungle down there, but depending on mood, any and all others are welcome! ???

Sidebar: In reviewing today's posts, I'm amazed at how many threads were begun over 20 years ago. Wow! Ok. Carry on. Happy Valentine's Day, fellas!

Hard to not like the straight-forward answers to his "interview" questions. Sounds hungry. (That's not a complaint.)

Maygers.

Part wishful thinking. Part fact. Part naively thinking that I was only stopping by for a little while...and that time would stand still. It has now been years!!!???‍♂️?

The value of the home warranty company has the most to do with the effectiveness of the sales rep for the warranties in that area. Old Republic, American Home Shield, and First American are some of the larger players, but they are dependent upon local service providers. If the local sales rep is high quality, proactive, and involved, they will recruit and attract higher quality providers and provide support and interface with title companies and real estate brokerages for referrals. I’ve had warranties with all 3 companies and the difference maker has had more to do with the abilities and proactiveness of the local sales rep as to whether I received remedies or better service. Perhaps you don’t know who that rep is, or bought it online, but if you got it through recommendation of a title company or brokerage, it would be a good idea to find that information out and register the concern. Often they are looking to add service providers to their list and will interview suggestions you provide. On occasion, I’ve known them to reimburse out of pocket expenditures when pressed on the matter if the technicians they sent were ineffective. They want to see you renew the warranty annually as you can imagine. I have a First American policy and it has worked well for the most part with some exceptions. EDIT/Caveat: as a result, obviously, if the sales rep sucks or relocates and is replaced by an inferior rep, then it’s going increase the likelihood that you will be dissatisfied. I know it seems like it should not depend that much on a single personality, but those sales reps who have clout can push stuff through and get stuff done and/or escalate a claim. The person answering the claim number or online submission is just following protocols which are designed to reduce paying claims, as is the case with most insurance.

A true gift of talent. Classy. I was researching Cecily Tyson a few weeks back. A beautiful and talented person. RIP.

Agree. Consistently tracking the same time is key to accurately tracking a trend. The reason for morning is you’re more consistently fasted. Before or after using the restroom is a preference in my opinion. The idea of comparing apples to apples. So choose one, fasted and before using the restroom or after, but be consistent. For that matter, every night is consistent, but sometimes what we eat each day and how much sodium we intake would be less consistent from a day to day basis. Hence, neutralizing those differences by taking measurements in the morning.

To you, perhaps, and presumably to quite a few other folks. I definitely get what you’re saying. Not everyone comes to this for the same reasons or expectations. In general, yes, it’s about sex for most (but even that’s not absolute). I don’t get the sense that’s all it was about for the OP, and that’s ok if it isn’t. Maybe he wanted a “date.” Maybe he just wanted to feel respected? How dramatic. ? Just like there are providers and clients who are focused only on the gratification of the moment and that’s all, there are others who enjoy connecting in ways that transcend the physical and play a part in their enjoyment. It’s easy and perhaps justifiable to dismiss it or simplify as unnecessary drama if it really is “just sex,” but human interaction is rarely so simple.

I marvel at this guy. I don’t know how he finds the time? ??

I’d say @Merboy IS being fucked by his roommate, just not in the traditional sense. A stressful and dangerous fuck.

I don’t know. Maybe. In those situations, the emotional and mental part of it can really invade and ruin the experience. You did more than most clients by paying for an hour and allowing him to move on. Very classy and considerate. I do think you’ll regret not meeting him again at some point based on what you’ve said. He seems very nice and wants to make amends, and I sense you do as well. You seem like a considerate person who should be appreciated. I anticipate you have earned his respect in the process based on how he is appealing for another chance. I believe in second chances personally because I have been afforded them myself.

Realized, I didn’t answer your question. The only thing I can think to have done differently is not to have initially acted like it was all ok and then confess it wasn’t. I have been there though...you try to pass it off and then you get in your head. Otherwise, you were respectful and kind in your responses and that is likely why this provider feels badly about what he said.
