I don't know the will do it. Some do it, most don't. I make small talk, invite them for dinner and take it from there. It is not transactional like escorts and requires more time and effort.

Mostly fashion models on short stay in my city.

Start slowly. No overnights. I rarely hire escorts. I prefer the less transactional amateurish SA and Instagram guys.

About a year ago I am home with a guy I met via Instagram. First time compensated meeting. We have a drink we chat. At some point he asks something I am rather bored to answer and foolishly reply, we have an hour, let's not waste it with this. His response was we have all the time we want. He became a regular.

What is interesting and I agree it's a slow burn of a film is that Thomas Mann who won the nobel prize for literature and was deeply interested in psychology is intent on digging deep into human nature and as a gay man understands profoundly the insecurities that represents, especially in that era. I believe the film relays the meaning he intended to express from the book.
 
His better book though is possibly The Magic Mountain.
 
I'm a Bogarde fan too, so I come at this film from that angle, but the themes of hubris, humanity, desire and longing not to mention the developing pandemic which makes this so prescient.
 
It's a film best watched more than once, sorry to say Eastbaymike!

'Death in Venice' one of the most beautifully crafted films. Perhaps Dirk Bogarde's best as an actor.
 
This will be interesting to watch when released.
 

Oh my God, salad and main at the same time? The inhumanity!

This is 2021. No idea what cash even is. Haven’t had cash in my wallet in years.

He became one of my best friends and I will miss him next year when he ll continue his studies at one of the best US universities.

Yes he does.

Actually it is the best interview question. You know it is coming, you can prepare the answer and give a show presenting yourself. It is also the best question for the first dinner date.

Yes, but that's not the point. The magic was gone. I was no longer attracted to him.

Yes I actually find it reassuring that an escort wants some form of contact ahead of a meet up. It helps both parties get a sense of each other that no form of texting can do. A quick call or FaceTime works fine for me and i use it as much to reassure myself that I am Ok with the escort as much as he may be checking me out. Not foolproof but has helped me avoid some potentially disastrous meet ups.

Too many budgets in my professional life, I don't want one more.

I would never consider these feminine.

I was shocked on my 20th birthday when I realised I was no longer a teenager. And a few years later in the underground I saw my reflection on the opposite window and noticed a slight wrinkle. Years later I learned it is called nasolabial fold. I remember the underground ride every time I go to my derm to refill the damn folds. ☺

I will probably go against the forum consensus, but I find reasonable for escorts to ask for a photo. At the same time I understand clients concerns. What I do, is send a first message with my WhatsApp that has my face photo. And I always have a quick video call before we meet.
