Mike Masters - Real Experiences? Reviews seem strange

[bostonnycguy]

http://www.rentboy.com/Listing.aspx?lid=566132&type=escort

 

So this escort is visiting Boston and he looks and sounds exactly like the type of guy I would hire. And while he has NUMEROUS reviews on this site, they all seem a little "off" so to speak. Nearly everyone uses the same "met him first at coffee shop/starbucks" which seems very strange to me. He also doesn't share or show his face and there was some talk on another board that his pictures don't match who actually shows up for an appointment.

 

Thoughts? Direct experiences?

 

Thanks!

I've seen Mike on a couple of occasions. Had a fun time and he looks great.

[bobnyc]

Well, he's real and fairly muscular. But like a lot of muscular individuals they sometimes are more muscular or less so depending on the phase of bodybuilding that they're in.

 

I feel fairly confident that most of the reviews are real. He's fun, intelligent and I love cuddling with him afterwards. I miss him since I've moved to LA but I've seen him twice in LA when he's visited. He has not failed to deliver.

[Guest Starbuck]

It's true that Mike meets first time clients at a Starbucks near his apartment. Been there; done that. (On the other hand, if you want him to come to you, you can skip the Starbucks.) I realize we've gotten used to it with lots of other guys but, when you think about it, it's not all that peculiar to want to check a guy out before inviting him in to your home. Different strokes for different folks.

 

It's also true that there has been some innuendo about Mike, and gossipy speculation from people who haven't met him, but there's also been lots of positive feedback from regular contributors to this forum and multi-time reviewers who have spent time with him. The man is more meticulous than most at making sure of what you want and delivering exactly what you ask for.

I saw Mike Masters during a period when I'd taken a break from writing reviews. Otherwise, I would have written him a positive one. I found him to be stunningly handsome, very kind and respectful, and had a great time. I wouldn't worry about the reviews. He's completely legit.

 

And, yes, he does prefer to meet incall clients first at a nearby Starbucks, accounting for some of the similarity in the reviews. But it's no big deal. I highly recommend him.

I met with Mike when he visited Dallas. He is a great person and looks just like his pictures. I will see him the next time he visits. Everything in is ad and all the positive reviews are 100% correct.

[Muscle Lover 2]

I, too, saw Mike the last time he was in Dallas. I did not find his body to be quite as attractive as the pictures but there is no doubt in my mind that those are his pictures. He is such a natural at this. He made me feel at ease and played my body like a violin. I had a longer appointment and was very glad I did. I just did not get to write a review. Would give him A's across the board and am a frequent reviewer. If you like muscle and/or to be dominated, you cannot find anyone better.

[tom1980]

I wasn't able to see Mike when he visited Dallas, but I saw him last summer when I was in NYC. Perhaps my review is among those that seem strange to you, but it does describe my real experience with him.

[Playstoorough]

I too have played with Mike Masters. There are two things you need to know:

1. Those pictures are not real. Those pictures maybe have been of him when he was 25 years old.

2. He is probably 42 years old.

 

That doesn't mean he is ugly or fat. He is just a lot older then you expect. You expect to meet a 20-something and then you're off 20 years. You expect to find a bodybuilder and you meet a muscular man who clearly used to be a bodybuilder.

 

He sets you up for a $600 disappointment. He still still hot and a great fucker. He just isn't a 300/hr escort. He should charge $250 an hour or $400 for 2. He is no longer the god he once was 20 years ago. Now he is a just a good-looking mortal.

Two things worth pointing out:

 

1) To answer loverboy's question, of Mike Masters' 55 very positive reviews, ten were written by guys who self-identify as being in their 30's and two were written by guys in their 20's. All were glowing reviews. Check out Playstoorough's profile and you will see why this statistic is relevant and answers your question.

2) All of the reviews listing his age range specify 20's or 30's. Given his first review was written in late 2011, the assertion that he is in his 40's simply does not add up.

[BabyBoomer]

Let's not forget all the positive reviews Mike Masters had prior to November 2011 when he was known as Dave Bruno.

To be fair. Ive lurked on the forums for a very long time before I starting throwing my 2 cents, 25 cents and the occasional Sacagawea Dollar

[Yankee]

I didn't want to "out" myself here as being the latest reviewer (#55) of Mike Masters, but here I am. Some of you already knew it was me because I had actually come to this forum when I said I was ready to lose my virginity and I wanted a big, dominant guy in NYC, and people here suggested Mike. I went to him and wrote one of those glowing reviews that Newbie "Playstoorough" seems to be questioning. Mike is clearly an incredibly built, 30something bodybuilder who is everything his ads say he is. There is nothing odd about the Starbucks location that he asked me (and clearly others) to meet him at before we walked a couple blocks to his apartment in the West 50s. You must have some weird ax to grind because although he was the first guy I ever had sex with (only had sex with my wife and prior girlfriends), Mike turned my world upside down with his enormous sexual prowess and macho energy. The guy exudes so much sex that I wanted him to take me right there on the sidewalk before we got to his building. Not only was his time worth more to me than the $300 dollars an hour that I paid, but I later wanted to give him more, and I ended emailing him an Amazon gift card for another $200 when I came down from my sexual high. Mike took the time to also send me off with some helpful info on sex toys for a newbie like me, as well as some responsible advice on how to play safe, now that I was entering the escort world. As a type A, Manhattan lawyer who would be quick to call B.S. on misleading advertising, I can tell you that Mike Masters is the real deal, and anyone who is questioning his credentials or his ads clearly has some other hidden agenda.

very good point, sincity....it's very possible "playstoorough" has been around here longer than last Thursday (!).....maybe he finally joined up to make his post??!!.....I usually think it's important to welcome new forum members, but.....

Although I have not memorized your every post, to the best of my recollection your tone is typically positive and your first post was not one in which you trashed someone else.

Well.. that is true.. first impressions and all

That would have been an interesting sight to see

[Playstoorough]

I wasn't being mean. I was being fair. Those pictures he uses are not of him. If they are of him then they are extremely old pictures. I said the sex was great. His body is very nice. However, he was not who I expected. I would have still played with him had he been honest. Well, for $600 I would have gone with Austin Wolfe instead (to be honest). Now you be honest. Are those picture Mike Masters use accurate? Be honest. How old would YOU guess he is? I say 40 to 43. Are his pictures real and how old do you think he is? I never said the sex was bad. I had a good time but for that price I would have gone with a young stud.

[whipped guy]

I hesitated to contribute to this discussion as it has developed over the past day precisely due to the various reactions that I knew would be elicited regarding what was recently posted.

 

Let's just say that I know several individuals who have hired Mike. One guy has him as his "go to" regular. Accordingly they have developed quite a nice relationship that has resulted in the two of them functioning in tandem like a well oiled machine. Another friend thought that he was fine as well, but did not feel any special fireworks. Still another, was disappointed with the experience, but in retrospect thought that it was not really half bad. What troubled him was the fact that the hairy guy who walked into the room wasn't the "slick ready for competition bodybuilder" of his ads.

 

That's the problem with bodybuilders. Their pics are often pre-competition. It is impossible to stay in such shape 365 days a year... In fact it is not only impossible but also unhealthy to sustain and maintain such conditioning for a prolonged period of time. I don't care who we are talking about... Even that now retired Adonis Nick German never looked exactly like his pics when I hired him... Actually in all my years of hiring only once did a bodybuilder come totally as advertised... and that's because he came to our session directly from the finals of his competition.

 

Now before I am accused of hearsay reporting, I have indeed hired Mike. I thought that he was throughly professional. I had a good time... He is charging the going rate for NYC. If he were in Florida he would need to charge rates commensurate with that market... not NYC rates to be competitive in my opinion. Regarding his pics... and I'm being fair he does not look exactly like them... I have no idea when they were taken, but I always cut bodybuilders some slack regarding pics for the reasons stated above. Plus, most bodybuilders use shaved and/or waxed pics, and unless they are naturally smooth, that is not how they most often present themselves on a regular basis.

 

Regarding his age... we all age differently and we all perceive age differently. I work in a field where the client needs to reveal their age and I can honestly say that many people don't look their chronological age... At times they look younger and at times not... So I have given up predicting based on appearance. Nonetheless, Mike has a mature look to me.

Good point. I was recently shocked to learn that a colleague was ten years younger than me. He easily looks five years older than most men my age.

[mike carey]

I had like what I'd seen in Mike's reviews and after my initial hesitation at the negative review, the follow up comments have made me more confident that my initial impression was correct. That's not to say I'm off to NY to meet up, just that the positives have outweighed the negatives.

[down_to_business]

I have never seen the escort, but based on his pix I would have considered it. In general I would be VERY disappointed if any escort showed up not looking like his pictures. If the pics are of a young smooth buff stud I expect to see a young smooth buff stud and anything else would result in a colossal disappointment.
