Seeking arrangements success!

I hadn't seen that but just set it so we'll see.

 

I also see there's a "block messages with less than X words". I gets lots of "sup" and "yo" messages; my game (yes, I know - too much time on my hands) is to respond with fewer characters. That seems to spiral into a black hole where messages are compressed into shorter and shorter lengths: "Yo - wassup".... "Not much"... "HMU on txt"...." No"...." ? "....<no response>.

 

I've also seen lot's of 1 to 2 syllable messages. Apparently lots of young guys are using the app on their smart phones where the messaging function looks and feels like a texting app. Therefore the messages tend to be more like texts. That's my theory anyhow.

So I have looked at this site, and to me it seems unfortunate as it begins a relationship based on finances and nothing more. How does one hope to move on from that beginning ?

A) some aren't looking to "move on..." but just have some fun and entertainment, immediate/short/middle term fun

 

B) while the huge majority of arrangements involve some allowance and mutual benefit, not all of them do. I've met 3-4 younger men so far who wanted nothing to do with financial allowance. Rare admittedly, but those young men are there.

Have you ordered linens with your initials entwined with his? Unless he has taken up his residence with you, and, of course, you have deeded joint tenancy to him in your real and personal property in consideration of love and affection, the thing is not yet a success.

 

He @MrMiniver got a young man at home for 9 days after covering the airfare and other expenses...

 

I wonder how much would an escort charge for 9 days?

Half the straight couples I know here in NYC are a much wealthier spouse marrying a much less wealthy one. And not just second wives - first husbands. And the other half of straight marriages I know personally of here are two high income people married to each other. The idea the wealth and income does not factor into literally millions of marriages is laughable.

Indeed they are! :p:D:p:D:p:D:p

I think it's like joining Peta and not wanting to talk about animal rights. If a young guy wants to meet an older guy with no strings he can go to any site for that and find plenty available. What is the arrangement if not financially compensated?

Well one of my boys has no interest in financial compensation. He enjoys our time together, I do take him to dinner often but he's taken to complaining that I'm spending too much on expensive restaurants.

I have to agree with @PapaTony here....I've had similar experiences re: a meal out, maybe a r/t über ride is all I have invested. As stated somewhere in this long thread, it takes "work", patience, and perhaps a certain way of messaging and conversing with these willing young men.

 

Maybe some (cynics?) don't want to invest the time? There's always RentMen.com

Feast or famine... I spent several days going back and forth with a 19-yo hottie and he finally flaked.

On the other hand I just had a wonderful afternoon with another 24-yo SA guy who is a real sweetheart ... Our second visit and definitely not last.

It can be frustrating at times but also rewarding.

One thing I'm coming to realize: the range of type of guys on SA is pretty broad. There's the usual jocks, twinks and muscle guys. But also allot of hipsters, TG, skater, etc

Should I go back to SA? I tried it for a few months and got nothing from it.

There's a few of us here that have been having good results. I think you have to enjoy "the hunt", which I do - both on SA and also traditional sites like RentMen. It's part of why I've also had luck with Craigslist, Backpage, Etc.

 

Give it a try again....

First I will give some time to whatsyourprice.com. Then, let's see.

A couple weeks ago I was ready to give up on my seeking arrangements experiment, but then I got some great advice from another forum member. I changed my profile a bit and got more strategic in my online interaction. As a result, I've met several nice guys. I ended up having sort-of-sex with one guy, but it was extremely awkward and I have no desire to repeat it. I also had a date with a guy who is looking for a sugar daddy to pay his college tuition, take him shopping and wants only a platonic friendship (ain't gonna happen with me).

 

I'm coming to the conclusion that the site is not right for me. I don't like the uncertainty and I don't like the slow, meticulous effort it takes to court younger guys who haven't figured out what they want. Maybe if I stuck with it long enough, I could find just the right guy, but I don't have the patience. This experiment gives me a greater appreciation for real escorts who have their act together and with whom I can have straight forward, no-bullshit encounters. I have a couple weeks before my premium membership expires. Maybe things will turn around in the next two weeks.

 

My compliments to those who can make this work for them. Kudos to you!

And I don't have the $79.95 to invest in the BS of SA.

Very well written synopsis of your experience SundayZip. Thx!

What about they get emotionally compensated??

I have a question:

 

I've tracked down a very attractive sugar baby, 23, in Louisville. Social worker. he says he likes to cuddle, which is great with me. When we first mentioned getting together, he said he'd have to wait until he had the funds (!). He's also said he's glad I'm not creepy (whew!) nor looking for money.

 

He also has a "PREMIUM" membership. Doesn't that mean he's paid someone something?
