I go for gay, all the way. Or a bi person who leans more towards gay. It's true that straight guys are less likely to kiss or be able to pretend they're enjoying themselves. But attitude is an issue too - I've met enough cocky, "straight acting" guys who acted waaaaay too defensive about their sexuality, insisting they had girlfriends and avoided men. That's either borderline homophobia or closet case babble. I have a "gay activist" background as well, and always felt that looking for straight and "straight acting" men was a sign of internalized homophobia. I'm afraid I still.do - it shows a lack of self respect.

In my area, overnights can range from 1000 to 1500, although I've been quoted higher by visitors. I don't think it's worth it. Many escorts tell me an overnight is less than 8 hours, or that they wake up at 3 am. I've tried overnights before, but I wouldn't do it again. Personally, I need to be very close to someone before I can fall asleep in their arms. And I won't even mention conversation.

If I contact a regular, I usually ask, "as usual?" If a regular raises their price and waits until after the session to tell.you, you need to drop him. EDIT In my experience, good regulars lock you in at the original price. I only had one regular who (twice) raised his price, and it eventually ended badly. When it's a new guy, I always repeat the amount of time and amount when asking for the final agreement. The oral contract is made if he agrees.

This isn't a court of law. You should get information any way you can.

I've seen RM go down on numerous occasions, even reverting back to the old page at least once during the past week. Standard web app problems, especially since RM probably doesn't have many software engineers.

"Drug related offense" is way too vague. If he got arrested for using drugs, ignore it. They should all be legal anyway. But if he hurt/robbed/raped someone while high....you get the idea. Like @APPLE1said, it's public record. Don't tell anyone unless it's something serious.

"Guts" is just another way to say intuition ,street smarts, and unconscious desire. Always go with your gut.

I'm sure that if escorting was legal, a mega-corp would find some way to force everyone to go through them. Somehow.

I agree. I don't believe RM messenger is as encrypted as it should be. I think it's just an unwritten rule - RM for basic info, and texting for actual hiring.

I had a provider who, right after coming in, suddenly started saying, "Is there anybody else here?" and opening the door to my bedroom, etc., that's off limits to providers. Entitled little brat - I told him to stop immediately, and after that he's off my list forever. Asking is one thing; intrusion is another.

This. All the "good economic news" that was (until very recently) going around only revolved around Wall Street and stocks. In reality, small businesses in America are still suffering badly. We're finally seeing the consequences of this.

Ask them

I was mistaken. Jordan and Valentin don't offer threesomes, only 4 handed massages. Glad to hear you enjoyed being with one.

He passes the collection plate...

There's no way around texting them, unless they specifically mention it in their ad. Unless you have someone specific, so other New Yorkers can chime in.
