Saw him a few years ago in Dallas (pre-COVID). Safe setup in a chain hotel near the Medical District/Design District, along I-35. My erotic session did not end as shown above -- guess I'm not his type? Think there was an HE; not sure there was MT, and I don't feel like he encouraged it. The massage was fine, but I thought he was overpriced. I scheduled a 4-handed session with him and his partner Bryan on a later trip, but it was just as COVID hit and I backed out at the last minute (did all the scheduling through Bryan and he was totally cool with it). Hope this helps.

The masseur didn't go nuts, but it was an odd session (and stupid of me to keep the appointment).
A traveling masseur was in town for a second time a few months after I scheduled him on his initial visit. The first session was OK (other than being in a sketchy hotel), so I scheduled another one.
The second hotel was even sketchier and was along I-35, not terribly far from Love Field. I arrived early, parked near his room (the doors opened to the outside), and for some reason decided to back my SUV into the parking space. While I waited for our appointment time to get closer, I saw his door open and 2 strange guys walk out, followed by the masseur. They spoke briefly, then the 2 guys walked down the row of rooms and farther away from the hotel.
By this time, our appointment time was close, so I -- like an idiot -- walked to his room, which was a mess. I casually asked the masseur about the 2 guys; he said they were sharing a room and wouldn't be around. The masseur appeared to be drunk or high, and he used regular lotion during the massage -- which only lasted about 30 minutes. When he provided an HE and asked if I needed anything else, I said "No thanks," got dressed, paid him, and got the hell out of there. Never again.

The Chatty Cathy types annoy me. There was one traveling masseur that I booked twice on his trip through Dallas; he was chatty the first time, so I gave him a pass -- and he was exactly the same on the second visit. And it was even chatting about ME, the client, it was all about him. No thanks.

Saw him last night.  Not massage.  wow!!!!!  Hung huge and knew how to use it.  Sexy as hell.

I've had many, many massages over the last 25 years and have never seen one in person. 

Thank you for your reasoned, reasonable, well-written posts -- very much appreciated!

If anyone requests private pics of me on Adam4Adam I share freely. 95% of those do not display any sort of pic on their profile. I don’t mind. It means they’re interested and already engaging me in some way. It’s great marketing!
Regarding private galleries, Rentmasseur is even better. It means someone is considering hiring your services. It’s a good thing. So what if they don’t book? Not everyone likes what they see (shocking!), and isn’t that kind of the point? To see if the man physically appeals to you?
Often clients are on the fence or waiting until the right time, or planning a trip. Any number of good reasons apply. You never know. Even if it’s just a lookie-loo, who cares? More views = more clients considering hiring. Never a bad thing in my IMO.

I had a couple of masseurs here in Dallas do the same thing to me -- one or two peeks at their private pics, I didn't schedule, and blam! I was blocked.

Getting my face farted in by the masseur. 

I also caught it, LOL. Good job!

I agree. It’s common and nobody should be scandalized by discussions of erotic and sensual elements. It’s not a big deal to say no, sorry I don’t offer xyz. It’s also ok to request a phone call if the provider is being sensitive to providing information in writing. It’s also ok to list erotic and/or sensual and have different definitions of what those mean and to clarify with the client “I offer abc, but not xyz”.

OMG….that’s a blast from my past when I used to live in Dallas.  Yes, I remember Jack well.  Like you, I saw him several times and always enjoyed my time with him.  I last tried to contact him a couple of years ago via text but never got a reply back.  And you are right….he had a gorgeous cock!

That’s what happened to me.
 
I thought maybe he fell asleep by accident as he had an early flight the next day. Wish he would have just apologized as I would have accepted it as an honest mistake. 

Hmmm... is he the guy who does a 6-hand massage with Paper and Scissors?  🤔

Wow, lots of mental health issues. Makes me sad.
Then the politics issue. Urggg, can’t people keep this to themselves? We’re here for massage, not to vote.
 I feel like I’ve dodged many a bullet getting massages from by-and-large normal, stable, professional people.
Have yet to run into any lizard people. 😂 

I've had one massage where the release was essentially first then a massage. I prefer the build up throughout the massage, that's much more enjoyable.

I had a rewarding session with him last spring.  He was originally from Colorado, and spoke fondly of returning someday.  Perhaps search the Rocky Mountains...

CavePatrol has now cropped his face out of his RentMasseur profile pictures so I am thinking that posting not only his face but also his partner's (who has deleted his RM profiles) is kind of a violation of their privacy and the forum's TOS.

I err on the side of caution. @DWnycHow do you suggest, from the client perspective, the best way to go about upselling, assuming time is no issue for them or for me? Assume it’s a first time client and I have no info about previous client interest, or their willingness or ability to pay? Again…the scenario is the client is asking for services, or assuming something is already included that isn’t…not me suggesting or bringing it up out of nowhere.
Not sure how to handle this because every client is different. I would say from past experience way more than 50% of the time one of the factors is working against us like time or willingness to pay or ability to pay. A lot of times a client will scoff or be put off by a high number, or saddened and disappointed because they’re willing but unable to pay it. Kind of ruins the vibe. Since one of these is more than likely to occur, I generally avoid having the conversation after the session begins.
If the client asks for something directly and makes it very clear that they are able and willing to pay, I have no problems discussing and offering services, but that is exceedingly rare. Most clients have a hard time asking for even the most basic of things like more/less pressure. I appreciate a direct client. There’s no reason to be embarrassed or shy about your needs.

Thank you for your reasoned, reasonable, well-written posts -- very much appreciated!

The most frequent annoying behavior I've seen from Masseurs is to keep checking their phone during the session.  But, that's not the most annoying thing I've had happen.  Several years ago, I had a masseur keep chatterbox talking to me in . . . .baby talk throughout the session.  "We don't want any nasty old stwess in ow muscles, now do we."  
 

Oops, I posted before I wrote a comment. Any intel on him? He spells his name differently on Rentmasseur and Masseurfinder. I texted him before noon CT on Monday and have yet to hear back from him.

I found a thread about Xavier/Javier after my original post that didn't give him very high marks. And almost 36 hours later, still no response after a polite inquiry about his price for a 90-minute session. That tells me all I need to know.
