Was it a Legit pic? hahaha. Meaning did you feel like it was the actual person in the profile?

I got the impression from comments above that when asked he wouldn't provide "verifying" pic's of himself and the suggestion was "he/someone" was potentially using "fake" Pic's, not that he wouldn't meet a potential client.

It's too bad that the escorts on here responding find that "phone callers" are in their experience the biggest wastes of their time. But i see why. Personally I would never call without given an explicit ok first from the escort. This client prefers calls in advance to make sure (as best as possible) that there are not any expectations gaps, or misunderstandings or misrepresentations. At least for me, the purpose of the call is to make sure the escort is "real", we're mutually in sync, and 100% is trying to not waste either of our times if we did meet up and then discovered we weren't a good fit. The phone conversation is also very much intended ultimately to help them not waste more time later. But i completely understand that real escorts who are on this forum and are true professionals would have this perspective because they know they are trustworthy, reliable and real but from the client's point of view we also have to find the chaff from the wheat of "time wasters" and i often feel that a professional won't mind a call (after establishing a few things over email or text) and the fakers or others who have people representing them are reluctant to speak.

Was also interested to learn more about this gentlemen. Not sure if set of fake pic as well, (https://rent.men/BigDominic/).

Ahh too bad, I was interested to learn more about "him" myself.

Curious to learn more about him as well if anyone has any experience. And so far he's been responsive communicating over the RM site.

Congrats. That was brave and commendable of you to take a strong stance out of principle but then to also be able to at least listen to what you thought was a sincere attempt to make some sort of amends and then also to be able to relay with maturity the complexity of your entire experience with him.

He's apparently in LA now. Anyone have any interactions?

Apologies as i wasn't at all clear in my comment. I was actually not thinking so much that he wasn't "real" as someone else was using his Pic's, i actually was thinking that he wasn't taking escorting too seriously. For example if he's doing "shoots" and traveling he might then take a quick appointment or two opportunistically but he's not looking as a "real' focus to establish long term clients if that makes sense. It wasn't meant as a dig at all to him or that approach. I actually shouldn't have posted it as it really was more of me thinking out loud.

Hate to Bump my own stuff, but beginning to think maybe not real ??

Just curious if anyone has had any recent and personal experience with ShawnReeve? (https://rent.men/ShawnReevexxx) I've seen older threads but didn't seem like anyone had 1st hand experience.

I've known him off an on for a couple years. He started at "21" and he's always increased it annually over the past two years. In pictures and in person he can "appear older" than that but when has shorter hair and is freshly clean shaven (and talks about his recent High School friends) and experiences he does "appear to be " in his early 20's and be exactly like he says. But regardless he is a very "mature" early twenties.

The best i could describe it is primarily heterosexual, g4p, and with the right respectful environment comfortably adaptable.

Yes

Tough one for sure. I think it really really depends on your situation and have to honestly assess your specific relationship. I'm prolly way in the minority as over the past few years, i've "lent/advanced/given" cash to three gentlemen on more than a handful of occassions. Two of the three always kept up their promise and later either paid back the cash in full and/or treated it as prepaid services no problems. The other sometimes did but on balance did not. I wish i had avoided and was smarter and tougher. But I'm confident he didn't intentionally not fulfill his promises, not so much because he wanted to scam and hustle, but really because of other life choices he made and would get himself in dicey situations and really felt he couldn't afford to pay me back.

You ever reach out to him and explore further?

Couldn't agree more.

Kind of surprised it appears no one on here who has attended Adonis events in LA or Vegas hasn't at least met him. Not sure if that's accurate and if so what to make of it.

Doesn't seem like there is anything fundamentally wrong with searching for that if both parties are consenting adults and mutually fine with it.

I have not met him nor am i commenting in any way to recommend or not but have heard thru reliable sources that the profile is real.

I think this is perhaps a year old, but has anyone met him when he danced at Adonis in LA? (https://theadonislounge.com/la/dancers/brandon/)

Haven't personally met him but he did briefly have a profile on RM a year ago or so. Then and now he's been responsive to email and text so far but again haven't met him yet.

Just wondering if anyone has any info on this new gentlemen? https://rent.men/ARCO/ Don't know if this is a recycled Ad or a genuine and authentic new profile?

Well hopefully you'll add LA to your West coast plans. Haha
