  1. Eduardo did not change his name. If you do a Search for the name "Eduardo" a link does come up on the first page at the bottom. Dallas is just the location I added. (as in Dallas, Texas)...although he seems to be a traveling masseur these days. The one thing he does change is his links, so if you click on numerous links in the posts I mentioned, his ad will not appear. Masseurs tend to do this if they have unflattering comments.
  2. Type in Search "Eduardo Dallas" Check the June 2019 post by thonglovertx in the comments for the correct link. Not very flattering comments. Always good to use the Search box before taking the leap. Also, he keeps changing his links. Not a good sign. Seems like he is aware of his bad reputation, and keeps changing the links to avoid being traced.
  3. Sure, a messy layout can be a tip off. But I have been to masseur's homes that sent all the right signals.....such as clean and professional looking....and received a terrible massage session. And I have also been to a few masseur's homes that left a little to be desired appearance wise and had a fantastic massage session. The hints you are looking for are BEFORE you arrive. Is their ad professional looking, are they prompt in text/voicemail replies, if you talk on the phone do you get a good vibe, what is their massage training , etc. Those are clues to tell the duds from the studs. Do your homework before, that way you won't have to leave once you arrive.
  4. Until there is a vaccine, it will always be a game of Russian Roulette. You can start venturing out and get a massage or two, and not be exposed to Covid 19, and start feeling like it is "safe" again to get back into getting massages. All it takes is just that one massage encounter where you get exposed, even if you have gone for 10 massages where you were not exposed. I understand we are all frustrated, but the virus has not gone away. The virus is still here and still highly contagious. It is still as much of a risk as it was in March. It really is Russian Roulette until there is a vaccine. Everyone has their own risk tolerance. You need to decide what yours is.
  5. As reputable as on any other massage website. Every massage website has good and bad masseurs. I have had horrible masseurs from the more popular sites.....and great masseurs from the smaller sites. It is always a gamble wherever you hire from.
  6. You both read my mind. I was thinking the same thing. Probably best if the poster starts a New Thread with a heading such as " Who Are Your Recommended Masseurs In The DFW Area?" You have already tried 16 masseurs and are unhappy. You already know the bad ones. Why would you want clients to rate their unhappy experiences? That is a waste of time. Seems like you would want recommendations on the great masseurs in your area so your next massage in the DFW area is a postive one.
  7. Receding hairlines are not a reflection of neglect of upkeep. Male pattern hair loss is genetic, and something a person has no control over. Many 20 somethings have receding hairlines.....while I know a number of guys in their 50's/60's with a great head of hair. Hair loss is not a sign of neglect, just genetics.
  8. That is a good thing, in my opinion. Rather than a flood of people saying they know someone.
  9. Thank you for the condolences. Mom just passed this weekend and went quickly, so still in heavy grieving. What makes it worse, is because of Covid 19, I was not able to say goodbye, all us kids were locked out of the room. Like all the others in this situation, she died alone.
  10. Whether it is a masseur I know or a new masseur I would be interested in, the risk factor is still there. Close contact does not get any closer than massage. (except for escorts). And news reports are saying that antibody tests are kind of sketchy right now, with a substantial number of false positives, so accuracy is not totally reliable. In the beginning, if you read early threads ( Late February-Mid April) 99% of Forum members were anti-massage for fear of contracting Covid 19 and/or spreading it to others, especially the elderly. Now with the evening news showing daily stories of states "opening" , and protests of people wanting to end their lockdown, I sense the same mood starting in the Forum, of clients willing to start venturing out for a massage under certain conditions. In the past week I experienced the horror of Covid 19 up close and personal. My mother of 78 years old had a fever starting last Monday...it lasted until Wednesday when they tested her. She came back positive. She did have an underlying heart condition. She rapidly went downhill, and died yesterday, Saturday, May 2nd at 3pm. None of us (4 kids) or family were allowed in the room. She was surrounded by hospital staff (strangers) dressed in hazmat suits when she died. No one should die like that. I am shell shocked, seeing this up close happening with my own beloved Mother. No one knows how she contracted Covid 19, obviously through casual contact. After this experience, I will not get on a massage table again until there is a vaccine. It is worth the wait, in my opinion, after seeing your own Mother die from Covid 19.
  11. I don't agree this is a good time to give or receive a massage due the current crisis, but I feel that Miles (who is obviously working at this time) did a very respectful and classy presentation in his text copy of the precautions he is taking. For those willing to venture out for a massage, I think he struck just the right tone. I have seen some really lame ad copy from other masseurs who are working at this time when they address their Covid "precautions", but Mile's copy I think was very well done.
  12. You are correct. No mention in any posts on this thread, though I do recall a random mention of 1 or 2 in other threads. I think the reason is because whether it is a client or masseur, being infected in this pandemic is a personal health matter, one that most are not willing to share, except with a select few they are super close with. Especially in a situation as massage, where whether you are the client or the masseur, since it is such a close contact service, disclosing you have/had Covid 19 is not something you are willing to share for personal and/or privacy reasons. It is one thing in this forum to disclose it with anonymous people, but to mention it face to face is a whole other story. None of my friends who hire masseurs, or masseurs who I know have mentioned it to me face to face for the reasons I mentioned, mostly privacy and discretion issues.
  13. I got hard just looking at that picture.....
  14. Since Covid 19 is so highly contagious in the general population, I think it would be hard for a client who did develop symptoms from Covid 19 to pinpoint if they did indeed acquire it from a massage session. They might have stopped at a gas station before getting the massage and got it off the handle of the gas pump, or there could a million other places they got it before/after the massage session. This also gets tricky, since if an honest masseur as a courtesy contacts the client later to alert the client that they have now developed Covid 19 symptoms, maybe they acquired it from the client during the massage session, and not the other way around. The whole thing gets very hard to pinpoint.
