Typical

His massage is expensive nonsense. I can’t speak to his new offerings.

Doesn’t sound friendly to me. He sounds like a dick and a thief to be avoided.

How is Andres?

The shirt is hot. I think we as adults can compartmentalize: I hope so, or we are in for a rough ride. Let’s not be killjoy scolds. That is counterproductive.

I’d ask him to wear that second photo outfit for the appointment! Yum.

Seems like BradleyKingXXX and LAGuy69XXX may be having some kind of personal tiff!

Age goes down as price goes up! The fundamental laws of physics.

Definitely some over promising and under delivering within the advertising hype regarding Kevin. (He is a hottie, though.)

I believe the varying experiences related to whether the masseur had a sexual attraction to the writer or did not. That dynamic can and often will change everything during an appointment.

He was ostensibly (okay, obviously) promoting himself on this site about a week ago as an over the moon “client”, got called out, and pulled down the post. His RM “reviews” indicate fantasy rates of $1k per hour or more. I would proceed with great caution.

I never met him, but he sounds like the kind of person of which the world needs more. Anyone who loves and supports animals is a gift to humanity. Will make a donation to the rescue organization.

Hmmm. Was the massage at least competent? I’d travel to him here during his NYC visit on the subway, so south Florida traffic won’t be an issue. 🙂

It’s not “gone”. It’s hidden when he isn’t working and doesn’t want inquires cluttering his phone and bothering him. More masseurs should use that function in my opinion.

I take many fewer fliers on new people than I did at $120-140. I stick to known quantities. If new guys want to build a business they need to provide a “soft opening” rate to build a business and not start at full (high) prices. I have 4-5 regulars that I know and trust who charge $180-$200 for excellent service without tip expectations. I see them regularly without any drama or disappointment on either side. They appreciate the consistent business and respectful encounters and I appreciate the good and reliable service sans ridiculous cash grabs. We all win over and over and over.

You do not owe this person a single word of explanation. Your reasons for not hiring him when he, evidently, needs money, are absolutely none of his business. Just tell him firmly that when you wish to hire him again he will be the first to know, that you have his contact, and you have don’t need reminders. I would be concerned about this relationship. There may be unfortunate reasons he seems to need money. Desperate people can do bad things. It may be best to pause and not engage in his life for some time. This is one reason why I rarely do appointments at my home. I do not want to bring people I do not know well that close to my life.
