I continue to use it with pretty good success. I filter the profiles for distance and age. I look for profiles that are interesting and say hello. I ask them upfront if they expect sex to be a part of the arrangement. If they say no, I tell them I do and wish them luck. I have met three so far and slept with all three. Remember these aren't pros, well usually not, (Avi Dar is on the site) so performance is not scripted. All three were nice guys, one looking for a boyfriend (I'm not) the other needed a little work at the gym and the third is a real sweetheart. I am going to do another meeting with him. There is a fourth that I have scheduled for next month. Financial needs and expectations vary. There is usually some travel expense involved and at least an overnight stay, unless you are in New York. If you filter over 25 you get a lot of right out of school trying to get by on starting salary types and not so many twinks and students who don't know really what they want. It's a different market place so it takes a different mindset but definitely worth your while. Also, somewhere back in this thread it talks about the % of straight marriages in this country that have some financial facet. That is so true in both the gay and straight world. Anyway, take a different approach to this site, realize that there are no free rides anywhere and see where it takes you.
