Seeking arrangements success!

[Arbimuscle]

In my opinion. I think that it depends, where u are located, and if u travel much. I am in backwards ass Arkansas. So, the majority of guys, that contacted me. I would have to be desperate and blind, to want to meet. Let alone, support! If I could travel often, then, that would be different. I think it is to each his own!

Is "backwards ass Arkansas" anywhere near Hot Springs Village?

[Arbimuscle]

Just down the road. Matter fact, the tornadoes always hit Hot Springs Village right before they get to my house

I continue to use it with pretty good success. I filter the profiles for distance and age. I look for profiles that are interesting and say hello. I ask them upfront if they expect sex to be a part of the arrangement. If they say no, I tell them I do and wish them luck. I have met three so far and slept with all three. Remember these aren't pros, well usually not, (Avi Dar is on the site) so performance is not scripted. All three were nice guys, one looking for a boyfriend (I'm not) the other needed a little work at the gym and the third is a real sweetheart. I am going to do another meeting with him. There is a fourth that I have scheduled for next month. Financial needs and expectations vary. There is usually some travel expense involved and at least an overnight stay, unless you are in New York. If you filter over 25 you get a lot of right out of school trying to get by on starting salary types and not so many twinks and students who don't know really what they want. It's a different market place so it takes a different mindset but definitely worth your while. Also, somewhere back in this thread it talks about the % of straight marriages in this country that have some financial facet. That is so true in both the gay and straight world. Anyway, take a different approach to this site, realize that there are no free rides anywhere and see where it takes you.

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?

Yes, I believe it is around $30/mo and SB premium membership seems similarly to RentMents premium membership options: profile placement on the search screen results, ability to filter searches based on income and net worth, creation of a gift wishlist, etc.

It's a great sight for "leads"

 

The quality of guys I've met - after some vetting - is generally good

 

I've made friends, fwb plus so far

Pretty well balanced article, a good read. Thanks for posting it

Favorite part: "Boston's new lifestyle has had consequences. His wife divorced him (she dismissed his claim of being polyamorous as just an excuse for cheating), he says that he was excommunicated from the Cupertino Mormon church, and he's living in a trailer. But he evinces no regrets..."

Good review of SA men. I will add to take a very light hearted approach. Do not get upset or demand things if things don't go your way with a young man. There are plenty of young men on SA and more get on every day. Just move on. I do think it is important to be right up front about sex but do not be over sexual. If you want sex and they don't move on. Too many guys think they can meet a rich older man just for company. I am sure there are older men that just want company but most want sex in some type of relationship.

My SA meet-up I took a rather handsome Latino to a nice dinner, he gave me a goodbye hug at the end. Following day he texted me "Can I ask you a question?", "Sure, go ahead." "Would you help me with my $1150 rent?"

Some I've met did not even wait that long.

I decided to give it a try. I signed up yesterday and immediately got bombarded by messages. I payed for the premium membership for one month. Let's see.

It would be great if there was a place to review SA sugar babies. Mainly to warn and protect Sugar Daddies from scams and bad experiences.

I've found that the SA guys who are trying to scam someone are pretty transparent: "Can you send me money to get my car fixed so I can come and visit you" is the sort of thing I hear allot. Everyone I have met for coffee (always the first meeting) has passed a pretty basic reality check.

The slipperiest guy I've come across was a Houston guy who was really pushy about meeting. I figured out he was on Backpage and had been moving around the country - it took about 5 minutes of research.

 

I think common sense applies just as it would with any escort or in-law: if someone asks you to send them money then you'll likely never see it again.

 

I suspect that half the pleas for money are true desperation but I never continue communications long enough to find out. My 2 most successful arrangements are with guys who have never asked for money and I've insisted they take it.

Did you pay for their time in the first meeting or just the check? I am trying to figure it out how to function in this place. The escort/client relationship is easier.
