I agree with @Benjamin_Nicholas. FWIW I have booked several round-the-world trips (involving flights to many cities) online. I found the multi-city booking and search options on the oneworld alliance of 15 different airlines to be the best https://www.oneworld.com/ but Google Flights is a very close second. And as it happens, I find the detailed planning of complex trips to be quite an enjoyable part of the vacation.

This pic of 3 Brazilian models brought back memories, both happy and sad. Happy that I played with 2 of the guys pictured. Sad that the guy in white/red swimsuit was brutally stabbed to death in his apartment about a year later.

If the question is directed at me @goosh69 Certainly Not! We have had a full physical and throughly enjoyable relationship starting with our first date. I'm with @MikeBiDude on this. To guys I wasn't attracted to, I tended to say "I don't feel we're really compatible. I'm sure you will find someone who's better for you than me, so Good Luck in the future".

Look, I'm not suggesting that SA is great for everyone. It depends largely on what you, the older man, are seeking. It clearly requires you to commit considerable time and some money. I can only speak for myself. Over the years, I had my fill of handsome muscle-boys and escorts: some were great in bed, some were only so-so. I wanted a regular boyfriend. The dating apps didn't work for me and as I don't go to bars, I felt I had to advertise online. Now I admit I'm very particular; I wanted a good-looking younger guy who's caring, intelligent and very presentable. I didn't mind going on a number of dates: some guys were simply dull, some were uninteresting and I certainly met some no-hopers. I even had one first-date that was so horrendous I can relate the details to general hilarity even years later. But I met the guy I wanted. And it turns out that he'd been looking for someone like me. He's certainly not high-maintenance. Of course, I spend money on him but no more than I'd spend in any relationship. I like us to do things together (travel, theatre, wine and dine etc) and he's brought great joy into my life. We've been together for several years now.

I feel some posters are simply over-analysing what people write. A handsome young man may set out his ideal of what an older man can offer and describe what he can provide in return. Similarly, a well-off older man (like me) may describe the ideal young man in physical terms (handsome face/ripped muscled body) and activities (eager bottom/skilled oralist) while being general about what may be offered in return. In my view, both parties recognise that they are describing their Perfect Companion and they know they will have to compromise in reality. And in my direct experience, young men are often very ready to get naked and perform on a first date. That's happened after we've spent an hour talking privately over drinks and I've made them laugh, and I've listened to them and made them feel comfortable with me. And Yes, I've had first dates where a fit and handsome young man has done everything in bed to please me, including swallow my load. Meeting via SA is really not that different from any first date. If there's no chemistry or spark, there's no second date; if interest is ignited, then a relationship can start. All that SA does is establish from the outset that both men have specific needs and wish to have them met.

Wow, if you hadn't said it was him, I would not have recognised him. He's not ageing well IMHO

He'd have to pay me that rate

Perhaps only in Palm Springs...

That is from some years ago. He's still well-muscled and has a ripped body, but since he lost the weight his upper body is no longer cartoonishly bulky.

It would be for me: when I want company, I like to have a threesome or a fourgy at most. With a handsome muscleboy-bottom in the bed, all 3 or 4 cocks can rotate between his holes and provide variety for a good spit-roast.

Since he dropped 30lbs recently, I feel he's much more attractive; he no longer looks so bulky and steroidal.

What an interesting thread. My boyfriend makes our bed daily. He did it unasked after our first date and has continued ever since. I send the sheets etc out to be laundered and ironed. And we use linen napkins at every meal. I like these rituals in our life together.

@mike carey Is there ever confusion and disappointment when you come to make a Gin & Tonic?

He retired some years ago AFAIK

Can you get Uber from Prague Airport?

@kaboom35 and @Frequentflier are correct: the real Dustin is much bulkier and heavily-inked now

When their expenses and bills mount up, I find a lot of these allegedly straight muscleboys/bodybuilders think of gay men as a source of easy cash.

He never advertised to my knowledge, but he was available while he was here for a few months. He was friends with an English muscleboy/bodybuilder who 'taught him the ropes'.

If you want him @Keith30309 go for it and see how it works for you the first month. It's an arrangement: you are not obliged to renew the next month.

You don't have to worry about spending $1000 @marylander1940 When Dustin was in the UK a couple of years ago, he charged much less.

I agree with you @Oaktown and @freecahill1965 tho I know of several handsome, hard-bodied young men who want exactly that ("to live like a celebrity"). Whether models in LA, photographers in NYC and personal trainers in Sydney, they are all wannabes who disdain hard work and comitment and spend their time complaining about having to have sex with older men.

Thanks for your detailed comments on the guys. Would you say that there is a general level of flakiness in Prague? Conversely, can you recommend certain guys who once they commit do indeed turn up and perform as agreed?

Does doing either of these handsome guys count as "doing nothing"? Dan is physically beautiful and he so deserves a good pumping

Enjoy your trip to the fullest extent possible...and please report back with details ;-)
