You're not alone. The architectural inspiration for that hotel was being inside the body of a whale, which I l always thought was kind of cool. Unfortunately, it seems to have in some way fostered suicide, or maybe enabled it for people so inclined. You know that impulse some of us have when we're on the edge of a roof to jump off? Well, people did at the Marriott Marquis and others like the one that had the same design. More here: https://nymag.com/news/features/46811/

 

For me, the MM will always be linked to memories of the Gaiety, just a block or so away.

That style came from John Portman in Atlanta. For a while every Hyatt Regency was that way with a revolving restaurant on the top

Jokes aside it is a psychological barrier that can be difficult to overcome. I know people who tell me they could never “pay for it.”I vividly remember my first experience and it was not a happy one.

My first hire was in 1987. I had come to Sydney for Mardi gras weekend with my flat mate. Flare are wanted to go to a male brothel as he liked playing around on his bf . He set up his date and the r

Around 2000 I had been looking at Rentboy a lot and finally decided to meet this cute guy from Edmonton Canada. I was passing by DC by car and he was staying in a hotel in No Va. I was a nervous wreck. I was in desperate need of affection since I had (and still am) in a relationship that borders on mental cruelty. I paid the guy for 3 hours of kissing only. He had his shorts on the whole time but I was obsessed with kissing and never even asked him to get fully undressed. I will never forgot those 3 hours. I think he was pretty amazed that I did not want more than that. The next guy I met in No Va was a muscle stud, he walked in the door and immediately went down on his knees and started to suck on me and the rest is history.

in the mid-90’s I had lost my interest in women and wandered into the Nob Hill Cinema. I was pretty nervous. A very lean and hot boy was doing an erotic dance in the basement as older guys jacked off. I took him aside and we agreed on a $30 private in what looked like a utility closet. I was overcome with a desire to rim him and I had an explosive ejaculation, which he then did too. For the next few years I hooked up with a number of cute guys, generally around ten years younger, for brief sexual relationships. My first real hire was in May 2003. A very well hung Latin twink. Since then it has become a pretty regular thing.

Before I become the next Steve Carrell and call myself another 40-year old virgin (no kiss, no sex - that I remember, with anybody), I decided in my tender age of 34 to just do it - jerking off to porn was no longer cutting it. Did my google search, stumbled upon RM and got an account during New Year's Eve in 2019. Once I saw some guys in DC, I nervously texted one of them, asking for the following:

  • Whether he is available for 2 hours between 1/2/2020 and 1/4/2020
  • What the rate is

Being the naive guy that I was, I also offered that if that weekend does not work, whether he had availability some time that month. The provider then mentioned his rate for an incall. Not knowing what an incall was, I offered to book a hotel (since I had what I thought was an irrational fear of meeting a stranger at his own place) outside of DC and would let him know where it is as soon as I booked it. Then the provider gave a different rate for an outcall, which then I had to google and figure out the difference from an incall and subsequently agreed to the outcall rate. He asked me for stats, to which I replied. And then he asked me what I wanted to do during our time together and I was taken aback. I thought I just had to reserve the appointment and the "thing" just happens. So I panicked for a good hour or so, then calmed down. I looked at the list of things he was into on RM and texted the things we had in common and what I was ready for (e.g., did not know what douching was back then so did not even bother mentioning that I might want to bottom). Confirmed the booking on 1/3/2020 for 2 hours. Man, was I relieved.

 

The day before the booking, I was already so worked up and nervous to the point of wanting to cancel the appointment. I had to reset and revisit why I made the booking to begin with. Realizing that I need to get this nervous energy out, I thought it was prudent that I probably start off with an erotic massage. So I got myself a RentMasseur account and booked one for that night. Still nervous but went through with it. Let's just say the experience was meh, but I was able to overcome my anxiety of being that close to a guy and having another man touch me. Success!

 

The night finally arrived, with wads of $20s on me (the ATM near me only dispensed cash by $20 denomination), I knocked on his door (he had issues getting to my hotel so my horny self just set aside my fear and offered to meet up at his place). He greeted me with a smile and a big hug. I felt a good chunk of my nervous energy starting to melt away. He played some soft EDM music in the background while talking and getting to know each other. I was still nervous, so I just ended up talking with him for a good hour and 15 minutes. Then he stood up and said, "I know you just did not come here to talk. I can talk through the rest of our time, but I know that is not what you came here for." Then panic started to come over me and slowly stood up and walked with him to the bedroom. He played some porn while he was undressing himself. He then started to undress me and started the rest of the time with a kiss. There were certainly lots of firsts for me during that session, and was relieved and happy I followed through with it.

 

A lot has happened in the last 10 months, experienced lots of other firsts with other providers and masseurs, and as I read one of my RM reviews that an "old timer" referenced in one of the posts in this forum, I realize that I have been pretty busy, having reviewed over 70 providers and masseurs since I started. Perhaps I am still fairly new in all of this, but I am glad I stepped out of my comfort zone and just did it.

Well, this gives me hope. Though I'm already several years beyond Steve Carrell's milestone reference point...?

It is never too late. Would it have been more fun if I had started earlier? Perhaps. However, I do not know if I would have been mature enough back then to be disciplined at managing my finances to sustain my newfound extra-curricular activity. I think once we get over that initial hump of apprehension or anxiety, we would start getting comfortable. Of course, every new encounter will still introduce some element of nerves and excitement, but I think those are what make the adventure fun, at least to me.

Late 70's through the 80's I was the one being hired (which seems to have required a lot more work then than now), so making the transition to doing the hiring was pretty easy (which seems to require more work now that it did then).

Did you get a pager in the 80s so you didn't have to wait at home to get calls from your classified ads? If you did, people who saw it must have thought you were a young doctor :)

Bicurious and in the closet for most of my adult life, I got tired of whacking off to gay porn.

 

Perused Grindr for a bit and saw an ad for a masseur. Wondered if there were other such offerings, Googled it and found Rent.Men. I liked the idea of a DL encounter where neither of us were going to fall in love and try to form a relationship. Crazy as it sounds, I actually liked the idea of a business transaction because it wasn’t as messy.

 

Booked a room and contacted a very hot, straight guy who was strung out on meth. Haha, not intentionally, of course. That yielded my first BJ from a guy, which was basically all he was into.

 

I have since become way more discerning, ?

For what its worth (and trying to picture it a bit), how was the experience of an ultra hot straight guy going down on you? ?

Like some others, my first experience was at the Gaiety in NYC. As I was walking to it for the first time, this gorgeous guy passed me on the sidewalk. He had long hair, was really handsome and his body was amazing. The dancers starting performing about an hour later and there he was on the stage. His name was Jagger. He was stunning and I gave him a few tips. After he performed, I made my over to the video games where some people were milling around and Jagger appeared. He walked over to me and asked if I wanted to see more. I was clueless how things worked but quickly said yes. I followed him back to his hotel room, had an amazing time and the rest is history. After the Gaiety closed, I found out about Rentboy and made my first hire while visiting Florida. It was Brandan Steele. What a beautiful man inside and out. I've been lucky enough to see a lot of amazing guys with very few disappointments since.
