It would certainly be a fundamental change in the current relationship. Insert witty remark here:

Thanks! I've seen him on Adam4Adam and we chatted briefly...I believe we didn't meet up because he didn't host in NYC at the time. Looks like he does host now.

Of course he asked you to meet up this week! He's got a wedding to pay for!! :D

Great question! Words can be a great motivator. For good or bad. Some idiot once called me a sodomite. I called him an ambulance. (Not my finest moment.)

If @BluDay and @VictorPowers do not mind, I will supplement their thoughts: 1. Before you think of reaching out: 1.1. Only meet with companions that have been reviewed. Seriously - do your homework or at the very least plan to meet in a public place beforehand if you have doubts. 1.2 Do not waste a companion's time - only reach out if you are serious. Pic collectors and time wasters are rude and disrespectful. Don't do that. 2. When you are ready to reach out to a companion: 2.1. Use their preferred method of contact. If they prefer text, text them. Use a burner phone or the "burner" app on your mobile. 2.2. Tell them you saw their post on "RM" (I suggest initials - a lot have day jobs so it obscures a bit) "Hey, I found your profile on RM" 2.3. Say you would like to get together, be specific about city and location and ask when plans could be made. "Are you in San Fran and available this evening for an outcall?" 2.4. Know what you want, go for guys who like the same. If you want kissing, be sure kissing is in the profile. "I enjoy kissing, erotic body contact and generally a top guy" 2.5. When arranging, tell them anything special, such as "this would be my first time with an escort". 2.6. Be concise without being terse. 2.7. Follow the escorts lead if they go for longer conversation. As always, be careful what you say or agree to, remember, electronic communications can be retained and used against you. Never be explicit - the words "pay" and "sex" should never be used. "What is your rate for an hour of your time" 2.8. Agree to reasonable requests, say a phone call. Do not give money before. Skype if you are comfortable. 2.9. After making arrangements, confirm reasonably. The day before, the morning of, and an hour or so before is reasonable. I use "I look forward to visiting tomorrow/this evening/when I arrive in an hour". 2.10. If they confirm to you, reply as soon as you reasonably can. 2.11. Keep the appointment. This is important. Even if you don't go through with it, go meet him, and offer the full fee discreetly. He has invested time in this. He will understand if you get nervous. 2.12. Before the appointment, shower up, if you will bottom, douche. Leave off cologne. 2.13. If it's your first time, tell him you're nervous (if you are), ask him to take the lead. 2.14. Tell him what you're interested in (see 2.4). 3. When you meet with the companion: 3.1. Remember he's a person, be polite, and he's doing something very nice for you. 3.2. Honor his time. When it's over, it's over - be respectful. If you want to extend, ask if it is possible and don't be cheap; pay the rate commensurate with your meeting length. 3.3. Never be explicit about payment, consider not counting out bills or using electronic payment unless you have thought it through. Be discreet, when using cash, it is recommended that the rate agreed upon should be left in an envelope in plain sight so your companion can put thoughts of remuneration out of their mind and focus on you, you can always supplement with a tip later if you choose. 3.4. Tell him if you like or don't like something. Communicate with your companion; they will appreciate it and you will enjoy their companionship so much more. 3.5 Always send a discreet follow up text message thanking the companion after the meeting - it is polite and also builds goodwill if you want to see the companion again; like most folks they will move you to the top of the list if they enjoy spending time with you. See 3.1 above.

It is Cal - he is in NYC for a few days. Don't miss him!!

Oh, yes, please!

The dude in the yellow shirt looks like "One-punch man"! Intentional???

It is my understanding that the CDC's Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices approved HPV vaccine for those older than 26 through 45 during their June meeting. This means that most insurance plans will now cover this vaccine - if they don't you will have grounds for appealing the decision. As the man said: Just get the damn vaccine! https://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/acip/recommendations.html

Time to be a leader!

Welcome Newbie! You'll learn... Happens to all of us at some point. (shrug)

Agree. After meeting with a companion I usually send a follow up text to thank him for his time and will indicate if I would like to see him again. In that case, I don't mind hearing from him again. If I I don't indicate a desire to meet again, I will usually indicate such when the companion reaches out to me. In a polite and professional manner, of course. As a side note, I usually decline to provide a review or a reference if it is the first time we are meeting. Frankly, I don't know the companion well enough at that stage and almost nobody is that good! Unless you're Iron Man - then I really want to play with your suit. Or Captain America - then I really want to play with you; suit or no suit.

Somebody is in denial... http://45.media.tumblr.com/53d26a9ad179e397d284ea27be489e94/tumblr_myuxs6Hf1x1qhelj9o1_500.gif

Why? Surely it will make you look all classy and stuff... LOL

I say go for it! Sometimes you have to let go of the handle bars and reach for the sky!

Did you wipe the milk from his lips when he arrived at your door step? He is awfully young....

There is something worse: When he turns out to be a grifter. You know, you get that text saying he lost his wallet or he has a job starting next month he just needs $500 to get through the next few weeks.

The search function is your friend... Search for "38485". You will find some threads on him. For example: https://www.companyofmen.org/threads/recs-for-muscled-20-year-old-with-massage-skills-in-manhattan.150404/#post-1749818

I've had some of my worst arrival experiences in Atlanta. It is a major hub and gets way too crowded...

I was gonna say this in response to this thread: But you, sir, are a class act...now I am reconsidering!!!

Can he? Yes. Will he? Probably not!

Should you tip? No, there is no obligation or requirement to tip. I choose to tip for good service - has always worked out for me. You do you.
