I've been seeing a lot of bodybuilder-physique men in Toronto and Monreal (on RentMen). What are the rates like in Toronto and Montreal? And does it matter if you're pegged as an American?

Yup. If he won't kiss on the first date, I wouldn't go with him. This isn't grammar school.

You're right - it shows no class whatsoever, and I'm old-fashioned (and honest) enough to see it as an insult. I mentioned it many times before. Twice, the escort who visited me took the money, counted it, and pocketed it right after they arrived. And both times, they refused to do what they agreed to, and I kicked them out early. (one of them wasn't the same person in the ad)

In Chicago, I always ask them for at least a general idea of where they're staying, so I can schedule to either visit them, or them to visit me. Or to see if we're close enough in the first place. I'm surprised by the number of escorts who don't answer even that question when I ask.

Dude, all work - even professional - is a gamble and involves shifting the odds in your favor. A decade ago, knowing the website framework Ruby on Rails was a ticket to a well-paying job. Now only a handful of companies use it on legacy sites. Good thing I learned a different framework. Everyone gambles on which skills are going to be in demand, and what people are willing to pay you for.

As a client, I never used anything stronger than cannabis, and then only in the form of edibles (gummies) or vapes that don't give off a smell. To be safe, I usually let providers know ahead of time. However, nobody - even escorts who claim they're "going sober" - has ever complained about cannabis use. The only time I had to stop vaping was when I visited a provider in a hotel, and a sign clearly said vaping was forbidden. I ignore such signs when I have the room (my vape is undetectable), but his hotel room, his rules.

This is a massively old and tired scam. I just hang up if the person asks for a deposit and doesn't have a verifiable record.

To quote Scott Adams, the holodeck will be mankind's last invention. I believe it. If VR became that advanced, I'd rather go with the obedient, fully personalized computer program.

Agree. Practically all my no shows are due to: 1. The provider booking at the same time as me 2. Providers who are lazy and careless about time and punctuality I've learned the hard way that if a provider starts to ask for changes in time after you made an agreement, cancel. They're trying to meet someone else during your time.

Every session I attend, I give the provider a small bottle of mouthwash. Some are classy enough that they don't even need it.

Sorry, but I'm going to have to confirm that. So, I took the liberty of setting up a meeting with Arthurpro this weekend. He's in Chicago now.

Ditto. I love bodybuilders, but I acknowledge they need to spend a lot to keep their physique up. They're the only ones who can make me break my 300 limit.

Don't forget that to some people, any money-generating work is addictive. Unfortunately work ethics are going extinct.

Like others said, depends on the person. A large number of tats, however, are usually a sign that someone is from a low social background, or impulsive, so I scrutinize them a little more.

Travelers always charge more, if only because they have to. I try and stick with locals.

You just described every single CEO in the United States.

Once I tried to hire a house cleaner, and I accidentally contacted a gay couple that cleaned houses while naked. They claimed they were very good at the cleaning itself, but I politely declined.

It wasn't during the experience itself, but I once had a regular I texted between sessions. Mainly, I asked for, and he gave, advice on how to improve sessions, such as which type of lube to use, etc.

I do wish there were more partnered duos out there. I had a really fun couple I liked meeting, but they broke up.

Maybe this market is a mine canary. Escorts here (Chicago area) are getting less business, despite all the talk about the economy escaping a recession. I've encountered more escorts who are lowering their prices. My policy is to never pay more than the standard 1/2 hour rates of 300/500. When someone goes over that, I politely decline, but for the past few months, many started to drop their rates to what I was offering right after I initially turned them down. That's in addition to the new entries into the market. In particular, men doing it as a "side hustle" are massively undercutting local prices. In addition, a lot of the newbies are desperate to build up good reviews, since only paying RM clients can give stars out. That's proven to be a good investment for me. It would be interesting to try and find a correlation between escort rates and economic downturns. Because I'm afraid that correlation is very high.

I have a regular who lists himself as 24-7, and he's my "replacement escort." He's almost always available, and arrives quickly. The last time some dumb kid casually flaked on me, he kept me within 30 minutes of my schedule. Very professional and nice young man - a lot more mature than other providers of the same age. That last time, I mentioned to him that I hired him due to a flake, and he had no trouble - he saw it as a business opportunity. His 24/7 working model paid off.

Yeah. I thought they'd go down for a loaf of bread and a bottle of vodka.

I had an escort who did that at the same time his phone "lost power", and then took 30 minutes to get from the sidewalk to my room. Then he said that 30 minutes counted towards the session. After the session, I texted him, told him I had a great time, and told him to look out for his review. It wasn't exactly a 5-star review, and I laughed at his histrionic texts claiming I ruined his "career."

So do I, but I need variety in my diet.

It sounds like a prank a bunch of middle school kids would play on someone for fun. I'd need to find my list of escorts who screwed me over. I don't forget.
