    acks0104 got a reaction from Jdy718 in $400 is TOO MUCH   
    Look at escorts the same way you look at a night out of entertainment, whether that's a movie or a nice meal. There are going to be cheap options and there are going to be expensive options, but you don't get to go to a restaurant and complain to them that they're charging too much for their meals. You know what you can do? Move on and find a different restaurant or form of entertainment. 
    A few too many men create stress and drama for themselves over issues they can actually do something about, which is to just move on instead of complain about escorts valuing their time and services at a specific rate.

    I don't mean to be argumentative, however, the above post does not reflect reality.
    The poster reminds us that we are in a big recession then goes off to offer an unrealistic alternative of going to a sex club and/or using free hook-up apps.   He further says that the provider sets his rate and that clients must accept those rates.  Again, not realistic.  
    If a provider asks for too much money, most clients skip over and find a different provider.  
    If too many providers ask too high a rate, and continuously gets turned down for the high rates, provider rates will come down. 
    It goes both ways.  The recession hits the client and also hits the provider. 
    It is just a matter of time before providers realize that their rates are out of line with reality.

    $400 is too much... For you. 
    And that's fine. 
    But don't speak for the entire industry, especially the working guys who can and do charge that rate without any push back.

    Post 4 of a potential 6.37 kajillion replies to the OP…
    Here’s what we know, guys: Escorts can charge whatever they want. We, the clients, can pay that rate or find lesser-priced escorts. Or not hire at all, and simply date our dominant hand. It’s that simple. There is no union to strike against, no Groupon deals, not even a well-endowed (ha ha) support group to shoulder the myriad emotional turmoil this financial burden may inflict upon us. Do I think $400 is a lot of money for an hour of shenanigans? Fuck yeah!  However, I prefer to look at it this way: If a hot, hunky, hairy, hung provider charges me $400 to let me have my way my him and in doing so gives me an inarguably unforgettable experience, I’m going to practically force that $400 on him and feel like my cash was well spent. And the day that splendid feeling evaporates is the day I stop hiring. Until then, I’ll continue to open my checkbook (and all of my orifices) and have the fucking time of my life. Cheers, my friends!

    You hired him for a 3 day session without ever having met him before and then trash talked him on the phone with him in the room? Sucks that you didn't get what you expected but it doesn't sound like you made the wisest choices.

    I disagree. I have no interest in giving my money to anyone or any organization that works against my own rights and liberty. So it’s good for me to know that someone is that motivated to be outspoken in such a way that jeopardizes their professional life. That means they’re invested in it and motivated against me. The death row inmate doesn’t willingly sharpen the executioner’s blade…
    Unrelated to politics, I can’t be the only one who’s immediately turned off when I hear a provider has done straight porn, can I? I sometimes even hesitate with guys who are bi. Perhaps that’s discriminatory against bi guys, but I really prefer gay guys.

    So it seems like Ben has been going through brief phases of being active on OF and Twitter before vanishing for some time, and isn’t based out of Boston anymore. I asked him on OF how he has been and if he still provides the same services he did in Boston. He left me on read. 

    He also seems to have been supporting/reposting questionable posts from anti-LGBT and right-wing personalities like Jordan Peterson on Twitter. I don’t want to support someone who endorses that kind of stuff. Bummer to discover all this.

    Sorry this has happened to you. As an FYI to anyone not already aware, there are multiple free apps you can download on your phone that will give you a free burner phone number that also allows you to text. 
    I've never been worried about extortion from anyone I've talked to, but I've also never taken that risk. There's no reason to use your main phone number to reach out to escorts.

    There is definitely a difference between the guys I used to hire and the guys I dated or partnered. For hot and dirty sex, I liked big, hairy tops, but for an emotional relationship I wanted guys I could relate to on a personal level as friends, with whom I shared values and non-sexual interests. I rarely found men who fit both descriptions.  I have been happily married for years to a guy who is older and shorter than I, slim (when we met) and almost devoid of body hair, and cute (when we met) but not a head-turner on the street. The sexual spark between us when we met was not based on physical attributes but personality. One doesn't flip through the photos on RM looking for emotional compatibility.
    When I am watching a sporting match on TV, the camera often switches to a prominent player's wife or girlfriend watching in the stands, and I am struck by how often she is the classic "trophy wife," looking like a plastic fashion model, and I wonder what their private relationship is like. I think back to my high school days and the hottest guy in the class: tall, handsome, built and a jock. He could have had almost any girlfriend he wanted, but instead he dated and married a classmate who was short, fat and homely, but with a lively personality. They had a happy marriage with several children, and his death from cancer in his 50s caused her to become an active fundraiser for a cancer society;  she is now the mayor of their town. I don't see that kind of future for most of those trophy wives.

    See, this pisses me off. So you’re giving me “reduced service” (if you will) because you’re saving yourself for another client? That’s like a chef saying I’m not going to cook well for the lunch crowd because I have to be ready for the dinner crowd.

    It has happened to me 3 years ago, similar situation. I just told him to go ahead, that I didn't give a shit about family and friends being notified because they already knew (not true). 
    He (or whoever..) disappeared.

    The only time I didn't pay the full price was that the guy in question shows up complaining about parking. His whole attitude was sour from the start. I offered half his requested rate for him to leave as I was not in the mood.

    I sprung for a few extras which he is open too. The prudish nature I experienced at Adonis was not present during our session. One of the best experiences I have had with a masseur. FYI his nether region is completely hairless. 😘
