  1. Talk about full service. Offers a massage, tonsil examination, and mouth care. What more could a man ask for?

    https://rent.men/Eli_Bliss Nice guy and well-equipped.
  3. I see--and agree with--some of your points, but nothing in here is a persuasive response to the advice to put together a 3 or 4 sentence introductory message. Yes, you can be noncommital in the first message, but be upfront about it. For example: Hi, I'm Interested. I saw your profile and would like to ask a few questions. [Insert description of self OR likes OR questions here.] [Do you think that we'd be a good fit?] If the escort isn't willing to answer a couple of questions that are aimed at deciding whether you want to move forward, then it probably means that any experience with him is going to be unsatisfying. You're right that you don't have to use your name, real or fake. But, for what it's worth, I'm not sure revealing your assumption that revealing your RM screenname in a text message is as enlightening as you think. Escorts may know better than me. I've searched for my screenname on the site and my profile doesn't appear. If you were using the RM messenger to communicate, I'd agree that just mentioning your screenname is an acceptable, if impersonal response. Regardless of whether you're using RM messenger to communicate, it's also kind of unreasonable to expect the escort to go research you to find out more. As for the bareback question, this can be: "What safety precautions do you take?" Or you can reveal your preferences on that front when you're describing yourself.

    I was in Paris in November and last month. The quotes that I saw or asked ran from 150€ to 250€ per hour, so right around pre-pandemic levels. I paid 150€ or 200€ when I hired. That being said, there were more providers quoting 200€ than 150€, which is a shift from pre-Covid times.
  5. It's not the way i would've approached this, but I think that @Jamie21 is right that the initial message is within the wide bounds of acceptabilty, particularly given app culture. That said, I don't like app culture. When I reach out to a new guy, I usually have something the lines of: Hi Provider, I'm Interested. I saw your profile and would like to arrange a meeting. Are you available [date and time/or timeframe] for [desired amount of time]? If it's a timeframe, I usually mention whether I can be flexible within a certain time. Basically I try to remember that there's someone on the other end and talk to them as though they were standing in front of me.
  6. Intrigued and am bumping this. I see the worrying reviews, but his most recent review seems to disprove one of them...
  7. Yes, reviews will stick with a profile even if the name changes. I saw an escort in November when he using one name and left an ecstatic review. He changed his name a few weeks ago and the review is still there.
  8. He’s previously gone under “TallWhiteandHung” and another similarly named profile that has since been deleted. I think TylerOnTop is a rebranding of TallWhiteandHung. I also think he’s been a member of the forum at some point. I remember him commenting on a thread and offering to provide a dissatisfied client with a gratis session. I think it was before the transition. Here’s some of the prior discussion. Definitely a split of opinion on him.
  9. He was discussed here in a thread a few years back. It looks like he has the @Hung_Codyseal of approval.

    I reached out to him back in 2018 as I was dipping my toe in to this and just as (I think) he was getting started. We had a pleasant conversation after he gave me his WhatsApp number, he asked for a picture, which I declined, and we arranged the date. He blocked me on WhatsApp and RM a few hours later. In retrospect, I probably reached out to schedule too far in advance of my trip (I think I arranged it about two weeks in advance) and l think I looked at his profile again after arranging the date. My guess is he got skittish and assumed that I wasn’t serious. He advertises on another platform and I’ve thought about trying again there, but have found other distractions on Parisian escapades.
  11. I'm not sure I understand your question., so I'll answer the one I think you're asking: Can you use a burner app to generate a number that can be used on WhatsApp and the like? Yes, but it depends on what burner app you use. You need to generate the burner number, then register the number on WhatsApp. FWIW, I do wish that more US providers used WhatsApp/Telegram/Signal.
  12. Not a provider, but rates aren’t posted by US providers because RM won’t let them. Not sure where you live, but if it’s in the US, that’s why can’t see rates. As for WhatsApp, you can download an app that will let you text a WhatsApp number without putting the number into your address book. The Android app is called WhatsDirect. The iOS one is Dialer for WhatsApp.
  13. Formerly known as and discussed as HungIrishXXL and HungIrishDanny. I did not have a chance to meet him.
  14. Did anything come of your conversation?
  15. Yes. RM link is: https://rent.men/LiamV He used to go by Romani and has been discussed on the board under that name. Occasional poster as well.
  16. I was in London a few weeks ago and looked at him several times because tall, ginger, and British are my three weaknesses. I didn't pull the trigger though because of the recency of the ad, the lack of reviews, and the uninspired profile. It looks like he's added a few more pics in the last couple weeks though.
  17. I don't think the correct conclusion to draw from an iMessage that gets delivered as a text (i.e. that goes from blue to green) is that your number was blocked. iMessages are just text messages that are routed through Apple's servers rather than over the carriers'. The color just shows what route it took. I'm on a thread with two college friends, two of us use iPhones and the other uses an Android for his cell service but also uses an iPad. Messages that he sends from his iPad are delivered as iMessages and appear blue, the ones from his cell aren't and appear green. More below: https://www.ianswerguy.com/imessage-sent-as-sms-text-message/ https://osxdaily.com/2019/04/07/howto-check-someone-blocked-your-number-iphone/
  18. Fair enough. A better way of phrasing it would be, if there was no financial incentive, I don't think he'd be having sex with men.
  19. Here's the link in the non-beta version of RM for those who are having trouble: https://rent.men/TheDerekJones To answer the question, no. But as someone who has watched his videos for a certain porn site, I would be/am very tempted. My general impression is that he's very straight--he's married with kids--but would likely be interested in making sure everyone enjoyed themselves.
  20. Definitely a lot better in some areas. Reminds me a bit of the Romeo interface, with better functionality. Also a little bit of the RM Messnger app which I’m more blah on. Better search function in some areas, adding to/removing from the buddy list is more intuitive, interestingly, it allows clients to delete previous reviews they’ve previously submitted (curious whether providers have the direct ability to delete/hide reviews). The functionality on a computer seems off though. Back function does not work well.
  21. Moved out here from New England almost 20 years ago to see another part of the country and because I got tired of the snow and cold. I won't lie, November through February are less than ideal from a rain and lack of daylight perspective, but the rain starts to taper off in March, daylight obviously starts to come back in mid-January, and July to mid-September are glorious. This is exactly why he needs to make a visit in the PNW.
  22. My turn today. It looks like he's in London at the moment. I haven't messaged him at all and I know I didn't look at his profile, and he wouldn't be able to tell if I did. Not my type in any event. Introduced himself as a dom top. If I had to guess why I got selected: I finally wrote a review yesterday for a London provider I saw two weeks ago. I'm guessing he checks competitor's reviews and then messages clients based on what they've written about previous providers. I guess that's one way to promote yourself.
  23. *snort* We're a little more rustic two to three hours south. More concerned about the character of coffee. Summer is at least three weeks longer down here too. 😉
  24. As you consider a West Coast tour, I’d encourage you to look into the Pacific Northwest. Never rains in the summer.

    The pictures in the first ad are of former Sean Cody/Men.com model, Jarek/Jarec Wentworth. Last I heard, Jarec was still in the US and hadn’t emigrated to Ireland, so the first ad is likely a fake.
