What I really wanna know is how are you able to see any clients given that you are posting hundreds of War and Peace length messages a day?!? 🤣😝

No they don't. If you are not available just text back saying so (hopefully in a reasonable amount of time). Easy no? Nobody offended or disrespected and you can both get on with your day. If you are available so much the better - he gets to meet you and you have a new client. And you can even mention to him when you meet that you prefer a little more advance notice before meeting. I have mentioned this several times before but I will do so again. I respect all providers who are smart/thoughtful/kind enough to be members of this forum but the few of you who are are the exception not the rule. The overwhelming percentage of providers don't want to hear from you until the day of the meet up. I'm far from the most experienced at this hiring thing but one thing I can say with 100% confidence is that for every provider who takes appointments in advance there are 50 - 100 who say "Don't text me unless you want to meet right now."

You tried to make an appointment 2 MONTHS in advance?!? He probably thinks you're a LUNATIC! My advice: Wait till a few days before and text him from a different number. 🙄

As long as his third leg hasn't been amputated! 😜 P.S. A uni-brow is hot!

There's one in NJ called Eat Clean Bro https://eatcleanbro.com/ Never tried them but I thought the name was funny. 😊

Thanks I’ll pass

A fave provider of mine (who's no longer in the biz) told me he was solicited for a porn video by latinboyz at his LA gym a few years back. He told me how the conversation went but I can't remember. BTW he did the video in case you were wondering. 😛 I'll see if I can find it somewhere. Here it is! https://adult.mat6tube.com/watch/64951737_170050058 He's the bottom. Isn't he adorable! Not he biggest dick but incredibly skilled and a body that just doesn't quit! Total sweetheart too and a great kisser - which you don't really see in this vid. He escorted in the early-mid part of the last decade under the name Copious libido! Can you imagine? I was willing to give him a try just for that!

Generally agree that brevity is the soul of the text message, but I'm surprised to see that some forum members who I respect greatly suggest what seem to me to be ludicrously verbose initial texts including physical descriptions - fit, masc, yung, hung, bi,Thai - come on! If you have to sell yourself to the guy isn't that defeating the purpose of hiring? And if a provider isn't courteous enough to reply to a respectful, brief, to the point initial text in a reasonable amount of time is he really worth pursuing? Another piece of advice from my experience I no longer bother trying to make appointments in advance unless it is a well known provider with an established track record. 90% of the time you are wasting your time. I just wait till the guy is in my area and text in the morning on the day you want to meet. Works much better. Happy hunting gents! P.S. Haven't hired anyone in nearly 2 years so I'm going on the theory that things haven't changed too much during the interim! 😝

Seriously? You guys are going gaga over a guy who's been on rentmen for just a couple of days with a single, blurred face pic? And a recommendation from a "forum member" who posts once a year on the average? I hope you guys are thinking with your other head and aren't that stupid!

Is turkey an aphrodisiac or are the scammers out in force? My Grindr is chiming off the hook this morning! 😝

Thanks. I guess I was hoping that it meant they were willing to exchange sexual favors for weed. There’s a gorgeous man on Grindr just a short distance from me who has that in his profile and I was grasping at straws I guess.

Hi another question: What’s it mean on a dating app when a guy has 4.20 in his screen name / profile with no further elaboration. I know it means the guy smokes weed but is there something more? Something I’m too clueless to see?

I’m gonna send him that image!

Help! What do I do? The man of my dreams viewed my profile on Grindr! The guy I talked about in this post: https://www.companyofmen.org/topic/129422-do-you-believe-in-god/ What do I do? He didn’t message or tap me - just viewed my profile, which has no pics and very little info. I view his profile regularly to see if he has any new pics but I never expected him to reciprocate! What do I do!?!

Trader Joe’s also has excellent chocolate 🍫. Very cheap.

Its true. Scout’s honor! I was gonna link the circular but unfortunately it doesn’t mention the above items. I think its because its not even a sale. That’s the normal price. Aldi in Union, NJ if anyone is interested. Not all Aldi’s have the same prices, though, even when not separated by a great distance. So I can’t vouch for any others. I’ve also been to the one in Edison. Not as good.

Price of dairy is coming down around here. I went to Aldi this past weekend and got a pint of whipping cream for $1.25, a dozen eggs for $0.70 and a pound of butter for $1.59. Guess global warming hasn’t reached us yet in NJ. 😝

I think Grindr is easier and you get a ton more messages / taps.

In other words..........its not funny. Wow I always thought Euros (other than maybe the Brits) had no sense of humor, but this proves it beyond all doubt! Wait I guess technically Brits aren't Euros anymore - since Brexit. That's probably why they voted to get out of the EU. People on the continent have no sense of humor!

Wow I like to think I have a good sense of humor but I read this 3 times and I still don’t get it. Can some kind soul explain it to me? BTW the ever popular @Avalon initiated a similar thread a few years ago. I thought my joke was the funniest. I’ll tell it again for your laughing pleasure. Q: What’s the difference between an epileptic clam digger and a prostitute with diarrhea? A: The first one shucks between fits! 😀🤣😜

Thanks bud. I don’t know what the general consensus is but I haven’t been laid since before the pandemic and I’m getting desperate. Still too scared to take the train into Manhattan, even though vaccinated and Grindr is the most convenient way to find local guys. Hasn’t worked out yet though.

Just curious but I’m wondering what you guys would do. I was just messaged by a pretty cute guy, more than a decade younger than me. In the message he sent 2 more pics - one of his ass and the other of his hard dick - both nice (if real). My problem is in the dic pic he is wearing a shirt pulled all the way down to the base of the dick so only the shaft is visible. I’m a newbie to Grindr but I know from rentmen / backpage / A4A that whenever a guy does this it means either he’s hiding a belly or (gulp) man boobs! 😱 What would you do?

They did. Remember the “Pepsi challenge” tv commercials? I believe this has been studied for some time. Pepsi did defeat coke in blind “sipping tests” which led to the reformulation of coke to be a Pepsi clone 30 odd years ago. But what no one took into consideration was that you generally do not sip a drink when you consume it. You take in a much larger quantity in a single gulp. Hence the sweetness of new coke / Pepsi did not appeal to fans of the less sweet classic coke. And you know the rest. Two additional things though, and I could be wrong about both, but I seem to remember reading that when coke reintroduced coke classic they took the opportunity to replace cane sugar with corn syrup. I also believe new coke remained the default in Europe and Asia long after it disappeared in the US.

As luck would have it there already is a discussion forum for this topic on............. this forum! https://www.companyofmen.org/forum/84-the-americas/ Lots of stories / info about Brazil. I recommend @Tarte Gogo's thread about his exploits in Brazil from a few years back. Fun reading!
