+ FrankR Posted October 24, 2020 Share Posted October 24, 2020 Just got an email from SA offering 25% off. Did anyone else get that? I got an offer like this about a month ago.

guru68 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 Hmm why would someone describe themselves as 'non-smoking' and have a picture of themselves smoking in their profile? Why would someone describe themselves as looking for a platonic relationship and then have pics (including several private) displaying their bodies to advantage? Ok, I understand #2 a bit better, maybe someone just wants arm candy, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah congrats. This one didn't have the platonic item checked, but said something like "I'm essentially looking for a platonic relationship". So probably the same.

fedssocr1 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 I think a lot of them do that just so they aren't locking themselves into a physical thing if there's no sexual chemistry or they're not attracted to you. One of my favorites is "no strings attached" which can mean different things to different people. Either they want your money without doing anything for it...or they'll put out but don't want romance and a relationship...or... + FrankR and marylander1940 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marylander1940 Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 SA seems to attract a lot of deluded young guys looking to get rich quick - and a lot of older gay men with plenty of free time looking to get something fresher, amateurish and I guess cheaper... + Pensant 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+ FrankR Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 and a lot of older gay men with plenty of free time looking to get something fresher, amateurish and I guess cheaper... You may be surprised by how many younger guys have a great deal of free time as well, due to Covid and are looking for something they can’t find on the apps. Had a very pleasant lunch with a young man (15 years age difference) last week. He is tired of meaningless Grindr hookups - just wants a friend with benefits. Not looking for a boyfriend/ relationship but he wants to feel appreciated, wants to come over and cook a meal together, have fun under the sheets, share a movie. The guy is just plain lonely! Easy to forget how often that can happen in a big city... He has solid career and does not need money, though I still plan to to see to his needs (I will “help” him fund his IRA and he appreciates a fine whiskey so there may be a few bottles added to his collection.). I know folks think we are on seeking to find cheap hookups with young men. Not really. That is what Grindr is for. Seeking works well for me when it comes to finding a friend with benefits - something ongoing where we can both find what we need to live a more fulfilled life. Money isnt necessarily one of those benefits. Companionship is very valuable. ? Penn7, GTMike, + Just Sayin and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Covid got here in March of this year and won't be here by March 2022... it will kills us or we'll learn to live with it like we did with HIV. I've talked about Grindr fatigue before, more and more young guys are hiring now. 15 years is not much of a difference but I don't know how old you're. Cheap hookups?

I'm surprised despite their age and body type some are taking chances with college students.

Penn7 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 The site was offering a 25% discount on premium membership recently, so I took the bait again. Not much happening. I’m glad if the site works out for some other guys, but apparently actually being honest up front that you’re married gets you no replies (and I’m not uploading pics there - I don’t feel safe doing that after the massive data breach that Ashley Madison had- I do say in my profile that I’m willing to exchange pics with guys off the site).

guru68 Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 Another "Seeking" intersection. Longtime cam model Zander Sparks of NY has not made an appearance on CB in three months. His TW has been suspended (sometime in the last few weeks), though he's at least visited his OF page recently. Interesting enough, an entry on SA using pix from his Instagram and claiming to be unemployed in Grimsby, Ontario popped up a couple of days ago. I'm tempted to contact him even though it's very likely a scammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
