from a sugardaddy arrangement? What criteria do you use to make that decision?

My take on the question is simply when the fun runs out and it becomes a lot of one-sided effort. Correct???????

I have to admit to being involved in a sugardaddy arrangement a couple years ago. I thought I was fine with the situation. I bought her lots of electronic toys, i.e. cell phones, laptop, game consoles, ipod, etc. We went to alot of high end restaurants.  She constantly needed more and more. I had strong feelings for this gorgeous young cutie. She was a dancer at a club. My friends told me I was being played, but I ignored them. I lived and worked waiting for the next chance to see her again. Then she moved back to her country. The international cell phone I bought her would help us keep in contact. One day I called her and she said that her boyfriend did not want me calling her anymore. I was like WTF? Then he got on the phone and cursed me out in his foriegn language.

Remember and never forget it is always Pay for Play. If your friends start telling you its bad, it is. Don't get in over your head. If you have to start charging things to please her or taking out loans, you don't need to playing.

Its over when you realize that you are being played for a sucker, or you loose interest in filling that hole.

Whenever you want.......don't you know Jack_Shitt

Yes.

Please tell Jack, as he passes thru, that is was a typo.

He is a solid guy butt some times he does get a bit toooo loose....butt you would know that better than me.

Trust me, I speak from sad, expensive experience.

I know sometimes its better to never start one in the first place but that doesnt defeat the fact than in that short moment in your life how happy and "lovi dovi" you are; even if its superficial.

I am currently "seeing" a provider on the side and I am having an awesome time; although it is expensive. Currently, I'm not sure if the feeling is 100% true. Even if the feels are true, it takes a lot of trust given her past employment history and that's something eating me up inside. I cant help it and read her reviews and get jealous.

After she toured the DC area, she came back and we booked a hotel together. It was one an unforgettable weekend (and I'm not just talking about sex). I truly think the feeling is there feeling is there but again it goes back to the trust issue. In the end, I will probably get played. I am a hopeless romantic .

Even if I get played, I would do it all over in a heart beat. To sum it up, money last a few secs but the memory last a life time. The good and the bad.

If you are paying for each and everytime, I would say it's an act....if you actually think a provider is going be all that, you need to wake up bro.  Now, if she stops charging you, that's a different story.  I had one lady, name shall remain a secret, I was in California on business, outcall, we had a great time, and I mean great.  We ended up going drinking afterwards and the next night was at her place, no charge.  That's what I'm talking about.

you had a bad experience, sorry to hear that.  fortunately there are other men (like me) that have had great experiences.  I have fucked a lot of hot girls that were not escorts or strippers but sugarbabies.  

keep your eyes wide open at the beginning.  Set the allowance up front.  Never ever waver from the allowance.  When she changes (anything) dump her.  Most of them will retract the change and come back.  Hold your line.  Get good at saying no.  Get good at not "feeling" lovi dovi you stupid morons.  

This is a transaction on an ongoing basis. this is not a girlfriend.  do not forget the previous 2 sentences.

now get out there and fuck some hot chicks!

There are all kinds of relationships...I just ended one with a tiuring girl that lasted over a year and was one of the most fulfilling of my life at the time.  I have no doubts that she felt the same.  She since recently retired...at least officially...and she tells me she met her dream man...I've moved on, as well and am happy for both of us...that's what happens in an adult relationship...you stick with it until you don't, and then you part ways...hopefully with more good memories than bad ones.  Good luck...it's hard to date someone in the business, but it can be an exceptional experience...

She was visiting but came back to visit me. I booked a hotel for several days and we had a great time. The only thing I paid for was the hotel and food/drinks. She didn't "charge" me. So I thought we had something...but it didn't ended well

I need to constantly remind myself that you-all are married and only "in-love" for the hour. I will admit a few of my regulars are "very special friends".  Thanks and warm kisses...
