no So this is interesting. Because basically the provider blocked you on social media but could be open to hiring you if you contacted him through Rent.Men. In fact, he doesn't know you're the same person necessarily. I'd be curious of the context in which he blocked you on socials. Like I've gotten blocked occasionally by random dudes. Maybe they didn't feel we'd be a good connection for some reason. I've blocked people for the same reason. When I was a teacher, I blocked virtually anyone under 22 or so who contacted me just as a matter of course. Maybe he recognized your social media attempts and just didn't like it. I think it's valid to block someone who you think is maybe pseudo-cyberstalking.

And almost like clockwork, Southwest is offering a massive sale. I could do round trip Denver to San Diego for $157. Very tempting....

Dungeons and Dragons. It's the most well-known role-playing game, prominently featured in pop culture such as Stranger Things, Big Bang Theory, Community, E.T. etc.

I have a regular D&D group. We meet usually 1-2 times a month and have been for the last several years. It's a great time and the main way I keep in touch with that group of friends.

True...I began and ended in Paris and took trains instead. Interesting to know they do that as a connection though.

I took Air France economy in May on my trip to Paris. It was the nicest economy experience I ever had. They give out wine and champaign with dinner and cognac with dessert. Nice selection of movies, convenient phone chargers, friendly stewards, decent blanket/pillow and the food was above average. CDG is a weird airport but there were no busses involved to board. I liked it a lot more than my United flight to London in 2019.

Only really one friend. It kind of came up in terms of him jokingly thinking he about hiring a female sex worker after he was experiencing a significant drought in his love life. I suggested he try it and that I had hired a male sex worker once and enjoyed it. He was surprised but I actually think its good to normalize sex work. I think more people hire than we realize.

I feel bad for the people that got really screwed by SW during this whole mess. It does sound like not only did they fuck up their flights but they made it very hard to get the refunds and compensation that was due to customers. Fortunately I stay local for the holidays but several friends had horrible experiences and a lot of them are now saying they are done with SW. I already have basically a free flight through Rapid Rewards and still like SW quite a lot since they have a ton of direct flights from Denver. The good news is that they're going to be discounting fares pretty hard in order to get people back on their flights. I think we'll be seeing lots of sub $200 fares coast-to-coast. Take advantage of the cheap flights while they last.

His Instagram is pretty active. He posted a bit around Christmas. Looks like maybe he is more into his burlesque and artist careers. Looks like he also has a boyfriend. So maybe he just isn't escorting right now.

Glad you're safe Kyle! I have a friend who lives there and did lose power for several days. Fortunately they had a lot of food on hand but very scary situation. Glad everything is well.

I'm happy to be counted as a very small percentage of the 2022 numbers. If only I lived in NYC, I could probably get to 2-3 percent. 😝

No. Part of puppy play is a hierarchy among the "pups." There are definitely alphas, betas, omegas, etc. Alphas definitely can be dom tops. In fact that is usually the case.

Wow....he looked pretty young. I would be surprised if he was even thirty. Damn...such a tragedy.

Yeah I agree. I usually add a $20 tip but keep it separate from the total donation. I had a guy do that once and after a mediocre session, it definitely made it easier just to give him exactly what he counted and not any more.

I think we're going to see a lot more Venezuelan guys....already have a bit. But yeah there are a lot coming to the US right now. I feel like quite a lot of the guys on Chaturbate are Venezuelan as well. This guys a cutie though for sure.

I agree and definitely do not have a problem as a client putting aside payment in like a nightstand drawer or whatever. I think especially if the provider is hosting, it's not a problem for them to request payment before anything gets going. Also I'm really sorry this happened to you @AsianGuyCA. Some guys are such jerks.

This forum can be boringly binary sometimes. Yes in many cases you can be ripped off from doing a deposit. But in some cases, a deposit is a good idea and I think helps you build trust with good providers. I usually do not go for a deposit for short sessions, but have for longer sessions when the deposit goes to the total of the night. It is absolutely true that you can lose the deposit. But there is always a slight element of risk in this game. More often it's that you spend money on sub-par experience. If you're really worried about losing that $100 deposit or whatever, then you should just as much be worried about a bad escort showing up whether you do a deposit or not.

Then really what I suggested is exactly what you should say. Sorry, but I cannot hire anyone right now but will you know when I would like to meet again. Then the ball is entirely in your court.

I would just say that you're not available right now and you'll get back to him when you're able to meet with him again.

Remember that on average, the cost to own/operate your own car in the US is more than $10,500 a year according to AAA. In most of Europe, car ownership is definitely not necessary. Personally, I'd gladly save the money I put into my car this year (nearly $7K for a new transmission) if my job allowed me to ditch the car.

Denver got to -24 on early Friday morning. Second coldest temp ever recorded in the city. Unfortunately, I think its possible that might've done in my beautiful wisteria. Hopefully it'll just die back to the roots like it did last time we had a cold snap.

Wow! Sounds like an amazing trip. Brings back memories of my trip back in May. Paris truly is a special city. So glad you got to see experience it.

Yeah I've had some providers try to do some findom stuff on me and it's a big turnoff. I just don't get it. I'm also a bit skeptical that there's a lot of clients who are into FinDom. I don't know, maybe there are but I feel like this often comes more from the provider than the client.

I will just say as a client, I sometimes contact a few providers when I am visiting a new city. This is because I've actually gotten flaked on by providers so often that I like to have a couple of backups. I sort of realize it sucks for the other couple of guys if the first guy ends up working out. If I can afford it, I will sometimes still try to set up a second session with another guy. Once on a trip to LA, I got flaked on by all three guys I initially contacted and ended up reaching out to a forth guy while I was there and that's who I ended up meeting with. I do explain to the other guys that I ended up meeting with another provider so at least they are not expecting me any longer.
