I hesitate to post this in case the subject recognizes me and takes umbrage, but to him I reiterate I do not hold him responsible, and in fact, I still trust him.
A while back I engaged a provider several times. We seemed to get along well, and when he revealed he was in financial difficulty, I offered to bail him out of debt. I drew up some papers to formalize the transaction, and went to the bank with him to oversee a transfer of funds. I will not cite the exact amount, but it was a considerable sum. There is no hard due date on repayment.
He left town the week after, and I asked him to stay in touch. This is the disturbing part: whether he is embarrassed to acknowledge his reliance on my generosity, or if he is simply scamming me (though I know his debt was real and he needed help), he has refused to reply to any message I send him. I don't want to exert pressure on him, but I do have an ongoing interest in his well-being, and wish to support him emotionally if he would allow it.
I now attempt to write him twice a year. Each time I reaffirm that I am not looking for reimbursement. I hope some day he takes my earnestness to heart and writes back even it's to say "I'm doing okay."

As counterpoint to my original story, I should add that I have given smaller, short-term loans to another provider, which he paid back faithfully. I have also paid off the automobile loans of two different boyfriends and allowed them to repay me in installments with lower interest rates. The success of these exercises may have influenced my attitude in the present case.

I haven't mentioned money in any of my communications. Regardless, for all I know, he may have blocked my texts. (I have other ways of tracking/reaching him, but I don't want to freak him out.)
As a sort of collateral, he left something personal (but worthless to anyone else) in my care.

Lawyer? Hell no, the money isn't the important thing. And parsing out $ wouldn't have worked, he was too far in the red.
 When I die, my executor (a real moneygrubber) can try to recapture it.

Just met him. Handsome, polite, respectful, sexy, easy to talk to, and he has an intellectual side.

Posting anew since existing topics seem a little out of date. Just met Clay. SUPER nice guy. Reviewed him on RM, but write me if you want to hear more.

Update: I saw he was coming to my locale so I made an inquiry on RM. He replied in a timely manner with a canned response that included a request for a deposit to secure a reservation. I wrote back declining the prepay option, but asked a few more questions relevant to a meeting. That was weeks ago, and haven't heard a word from him since. Make of this interaction what you will.

Has anyone met:

? With just 2 reviews on RM, I assume he's new. Cute, though (IMO).

I can say this much: I started to book an appointment with him. He requested a deposit. I don't like doing that, but I realize for some travelers there is a risk of miscalculation that can blow their whole budget. I wired him the amount. Not 24 hours had passed when he informed me of a family emergency and had to cancel. He immediately transferred my money back to me. So he seems to be an upstanding guy.

Damning with mediocre praise! Do you think the advertisers who hedge their sexuality ("ask me" in this case) give a clue to their involvement level? On the other hand, I have read negative comments about some who are married to women criticizing them for that one aspect, and yet I also know at least one "traditionally" married provider who gives his all.

(I tried searching for an existing discussion, but they seem to be back in the early 2000s.) Is it wrong to want this? For myself, mind you, or perhaps as a third party with a top and consenting bottom. "But that's not rape," you'll say. Okay... Simulated rape.
I talked to a provider I trust and he's willing to go along with idea, whenever we can get our calendars in sync.

I've seen his ad before, and he's coming back to DC for a month, but I can't find any mention of him here. Anyone care to share basic info? Thanks!

Saw Justin again today. Reaffirming my appreciation for him here.

Just had my first ! with Jake and... Uh... Oh... Wunnerful!

I try to check all the boxes in advance, but it gets tedious and wears the patience of the provider. I overlook things, too... I hadn't been noting whether the "smoking" attribute was attached to an ad, until I wound up in bed with a chain smoker, and tried to lock lips with a trash mouth. (Really, severely dumpsterish!) Had to back out on the spot.

If you were ever to meet me, you'd see why "I ain't afraid-a no ghost"!

Gosh b'gosh, just met him... Reviewed him on RM (5 stars), but write me for nitty-grittiness. These Sondheim lyrics carry the gist of my impression:
And as for being saintly,
Even faintly, no,
But who needs Albert Schweitzer
When the lights are low,
And oh boy, oh boy,
Can that boy ... foxtrot!
(Actually, he's quite bright and educated, too!)

Recently someone convinced Mike Gaite to shave the beard and replace it with a moustache; this he has done. His beard was the ONLY ONLY part of him that might result in a point deduction from this otherwise-gaga-over-the-man judge. Dreams really do come true! But, he's promising the bird sanctuary will be coming back soon. Apologies, Mike, for spilling the beans...
(Oh, that sexy 1970s look!)
