If you feel you need to proceed with caution, why proceed at all? 

I’d say more a pet peeve than a red flag but if I ask 3/4 questions and some are left unanswered (eg rate) even after follow up, I can’t tell is that because of negotiation, a sensitivity about putting something in writing because of the nature of the transaction etc. 
My biggest red flags are providers asking for deposits and photos or other identifying information (full legal name, “real” phone number not burner etc).
Added to that I also have no patience for obvious rudeness or demonstrating a short fuse. Not the kind which may be a misunderstanding because a text exchange where i may misunderstand tone, but aggressive language, calling me an idiot or saying something like “can’t you read? It’s on my ad” (and it isn’t always or is buried and unclear”). Or arrogance and haughtiness “don’t waste my time” in the ad type stuff before we even speak. Putting that in writing isn’t going to change any potential time waster’s behavior but stating it that way sends a different message. I know I’m not a time waster and am sincere, even if mistakes convey another message to someone who doesn’t know me, and there are ways to politely say the same things.
Am not going to be naked in front of you if all this is considered acceptable behavior. 
As @Jamie21 says some of these topics have been discussed a lot so I won’t go into detail other than to say I know some are ok with some of these, I am not.

No headshots in the ad
I also as a general rule interpret short text messages, especially in response to longer ones, as generally uninterested. 
 
Me: Hey! I saw your ad and would like to ask a few questions. Could you please tell me your rate? Your ad says you’re versatile. Do you prefer to top? I prefer BB. Is that good? 
Him: Hey. Yeah.
If I have an interaction like that, I just move on. I’m going to get frustrated long before we ever potentially meet. 

He has a YouTube interview: 
 

I can't tell if he's really travelling or just soliciting for video services.  I can tell, however, that I would genuinely appreciate it if he would kindly sit his ass firmly upon my face. 

About an hour ago 😊

A bizarre neighborhood dispute has erupted in Perth’s northern suburbs.
And it’s over the smell of food …
On behalf of their vegan family members, a Burns Beach resident has written to their neighbor asking they close their window when cooking their “sickening” meat — PerthNow reports.
The upset writer presented the letter with “PLEASE TAKE SERIOUSLY” written on the front of the envelope containing the request.
The letter submitted to Hey Perth on Facebook begins: “Hello neighbor, could you please shut your side window when cooking?
“My family is vegan — we eat only plant-based foods — and the smell of the meat you cook makes us feel sick and upset.
“We would appreciate your understanding — thanks. Sarah, Wayne, and kids.”
The letter has garnered hundreds of reactions from users on Facebook, primarily dumbfounded by what they’ve read.
“I bet her mouth starts watering when old mate mows his lawn and she gets a whiff of that deliciously fresh cut grass but!” one user wrote.
“I’m offended by the smell of the kale she always cooks,” another wrote.
Others said it was time to get their BBQs out despite the letter.
“Oh, man … I’d be firing up the bbq and inviting the entire street,” one said.
I'm guessing the author's iron deficiency makes him obnoxious.

In Wisconsin, Poached Burgers Have Been A Staple For Over 100 Years

 
From the steamed burgers of Connecticut to the olive burgers of Michigan, the United States has no shortage of interesting takes on this beloved sandwich. But over in America's Dairyland, there is another way of cooking hamburgers that you're not likely to find anywhere else in the country. For it is in the state of Wisconsin that, for over a century, they've been poaching their burgers.
 
 
In the historic town of Prairie du Chien, Pete's Hamburger Stand has been serving up poached hamburgers for over 100 years. Originally, founder Pete Gokey cooked his burgers the way everyone else did at the start of the 20th century: in large pans. In order to keep his burgers from drying out between customers, Gokey added water to the pan, allowing the burgers to slowly stew in their own fat. Customers would return exclaiming that they liked the burgers cooked in water much better than the standard pan frying. From then on, poached burgers became a staple in Wisconsin.
Joe Rouer's Bar, another poached burger institution just outside of Green Bay, has a special seasoning they put on their burgers and they add water to the pans throughout the day, creating a concentrated beef gravy that lends tremendous flavor to the patties. Though we would highly recommend the journey, you don't need to trek out to these burger joints to experience poached burgers. It's something you can very easily do at home, in the comfort of your own kitchen. 
All you need to achieve a poached burger at home is a deep-sided skillet, preferably made out of cast iron. And as you won't — at least we think you won't — be cooking up hundreds of burgers a day in the same richly flavored water bath, you will need to use some beef stock in order to get the most flavor out of your burger. Another thing to note, if you want to replicate a true Wisconsin poached burger, you'll need to add a good amount of onions to your poaching liquid. However, this is not required. Additional seasonings to suit your taste are also optional.
Over medium-high heat, add enough stock to bathe, but not completely cover the burger, and bring it to a good simmer. Add the onions, if you're using them, and cook them down until they become soft, translucent, and sweet. Next, add the burger patty (and any seasonings if you're using them) and cook on one side until the edges are no longer pink. Flip and cook a few minutes more.
It is all but impossible to end up with a dry, unappetizing burger using this method. What you should get is a tender patty that's dripping with succulent juices and a beautiful beefy flavor. Biting into one will reveal why Wisconsinites have been in love with these burgers for over 100 years ... and likely leave you wanting more. 
sounds yummy... I'll have to try this.

Good lord. Y’all need some therapy. 💊💊💊

Strange as you get older you just stop caring. Take it or leave it-plenty more fish in the sea. Plus if I like or don't like someone it is not personal, just what I am/not attracted to. I expect others to feel the same about me. if someone does not like me or my ok dick -his preference. Why should I be ashamed?

I have a small dick and I'm completely forthcoming when dick size comes up. I dont have any problems snagging men. I hardly think about it. Not sure when this transformation took place, but at some point in my life, I began to notice that my self esteem and self confidence were steadily getting better and better. And all of those things we think we have to conceal and apologize for mattered less and less. I wish I could tell you how I did it, but I cant.

This may make you feel better or worse but it has a lot of useful information. (https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/271647.php)
If and when I bottom I for one am not all that keen on big penises. They hurt and I just don't get that tingly, on-the-spot orgasm. So I was not all that worried about other guys' cocks except to make sure they were not too big. The main thing was whether he tried to please me in some way and I, of course, went out of my way to please him. Hopefully he worked. So, unless it is scientifically too small (and then it appears there are aids for that) look for guys that want to please you as a human and not as a penis.

I am not going to ever say a bad thing about my penis. It has entertained me too much. As long as it works I don't care how small it is.

A big nose on a hot guy sometimes really works.

Met with him today,  nice guy decent massage but would not repeat.  Booked him for 90 min sensual only,  1 hour and 5 min into it told me time was up, left me in quite a State. Got dressed and told him I booked him for 90, said sorry misread the text only had time for an hour.  A bit too aloof for me. Nice package and PA. Would hate to see how an erotic massage would go if the time was up. Has anyone had a better experience, maybe it was an off day for him. Hate to leave a negative review cuz he's a nice guy but I've never been left hanging like that. Lacked the sensuality and couldn't finish me off. Also I meet his age requirements so I left a bit disappointed.  

I really believe you are being oversensitive about the thumb-up emoji, and if you let your loved one know your feelings about it, you would probably be relieved of it in future communications.
And, yes, Joe Burrow:

They always want to move the chat to google chat or whatsapp.

This story is oft played on many dating apps... which is why i don't date. I only have sex. 

I've been getting quite a few in the past two weeks.
When they ask "what are you searching for" I just say: A hot bottom who loves to get pounded.
Seems to end the conversation right there...
😉

They're back again.  Hot Asian guys looking for love (and your money).  I don't block them right away anymore.  I like to knock them off script and see how they react.  On script they can be eloquent.  Off script they struggle.  I send them faceless nudes and ask for theirs.  Keep talking about sex and make them uncomfortable.   Then I report the profile.
I obviously have too much time on my hands.

And I was 'sucked" right in....?

The title of this thread is a "red herring." ?

My mother said that the worst thing about getting old was losing all the friends who remembered what the world was like when she was young. She died at 102. I am starting to have the same experience.
I played tennis for several years with a doubles partner who decided to stop playing a couple of years ago, when she was approaching 90. Now she is playing pickle ball every other morning at 7am with players who are mostly in their 50s and 60s. She may have white hair, but she wears tight capri pants on court.

There's a remedy for that - getting there yourself. 

You should have seen older women in the 1950s - they wore dark dresses, dark, heavy stockings that concealed their legs, sensible black shoes with clunky heels, no makeup, and they put their white hair up in hairnets - they made Barbara Bush look like a runway model.
