Has any one used it before with any luck?Seems very risky as far as potential entraptment goes as some of the adds suggest you reply in a way that is far too graphic and almost seems like a set up.

Just because an ad is graphic doesn't mean you have to respond in kind.  In fact, you're much more likely to be successful if you steer well clear of any suggestive language.  It's a bit of a crapshoot, though, since you have no way to check reviews or anything like that.  But in general I've been very happy with the ladies I've seen.  By and large, they're either "non-pros" or very occasional, low-volume providers.

Have fun, MG

I've posted on there several times
had good and bad experiences, lol

bad experience #1: I work a regular day job and my boss was searching the board and found a big ole picture of me and my escort ad. Boy was he shocked but he handled it very gentlemanly. Said that whatever makes me happy, I should do.

bad experience #2: I get numerous emails and calls from guy who I can just TELL are LE and if they aren't they should serisouly learn the laws better. I can't discuss sex for money over the phone or thru email or PERIOD for that case, idiots.

but I have met a few collge guys who were completely normal and had good experinces with them.

CL in boston seems to me to be a crapshoot.  MG did you search in Casual Encounters or Erotic Services?  I've had much better luck in NYC with CL.

I've responded to ads on both Casual Encounters and Erotic Services.  My experience, however, is that the ladies on Casual Encounters are quite unlikely to be receptive to the advances of a middle-aged, married guy.  By contrast, that doesn't seem to be as much of an issue on Erotic Services.  So my success rate on ES is much, much higher...

Have fun, MG

I've replied to a couple of massage providers through CL, but did not have much success.  Any backchannel info would be most appreciated.  My experiance with CAS is that most are fakes and it's a sausage fest in there.  NYC & Chicago seem a bit better for CL.  Thanks for any help you can offer.

www.craigslist.org

make sure you click on the proper city cause it's at san francisco by default

But the ladies there rarely do outcall to Boston.  So the Boston CL is what you're stuck with...  

As I said earlier, my experiences with Erotic Services is much, much better than Casual Encounters.  Even on ES, persistence is a virtue.  The other thing I've found is that many of the ladies seem to be markedly opportunistic.  When they are receptive to meeting, they post.  Within limits, they will then see whoever responds first.  So it pays to respond as soon as possible after the ads go up.

It also helps to be a handsome, well-hung hunk...  Of course, that doesn't help me at all, but maybe it will work for you!

Have fun, MG

It appears that the folks at citivibe like to post spurious ads on CL "skinny blonde 18yo w natural 36DDD $$ special - Gertrude", when there is no Gert listed for that city.  It does force you to look through their entire listing, so you gotta admire their spam technique.

After having fallen for this a few times, I finally wised up.  They aren't really advertising a hot young babe, they're just advertising the CityVibe site.

So when you see a link on CL, before you click it, just right-click and then click "properties".  It'll reveal the web address for the link.  If it says "cityvibe.com", then I just move on...

Have fun, MG

P.S.  You can also skip any ads from "Tina"...  

I check CL a lot. I'm currently seeing a young lady pretty regularly, sort of a mistress thing, who I met through CL. She posted as a lesbian, you know, take the challenge of making me cum.
It's taken a few times but she did tonight.
She lives with a girlfriend, which is good because it ensures Mutually Assured Destruction, ie, a reason for both of us to remain discreet.

My previous mistress was way much fun, and gorgeous, but too possesive in the end. Also met her through CL.
She lives with her finance, again MAD applies.

I'd say it's a better place to find a steady friend with benefit$ situation than a real out and out provider. You just don't know what you're going to get. Not scary skanks, just girls who don't live up to their descriptions.

Many posts are bogus, or are by desparate girls loaded with credit card debt and student loans--who then chicken out when the rubber hits the road so to speak. A lot of that.
