And to answer this question, yeah you basically have to straight up tell them what you're expecting, possibly in chat before you even meet, otherwise it probably won't happen, they won't do it themselves unless they're seasoned and know how it works. My personal example of this would be my very first meet. He called me to a hotel and I went without even knowing how it all works or without even asking/telling him what I wanted to get paid, it was literally just a few days after I'd made my account. After we were done he gave me an envelope containing £500. I didn't ask for it or tell him how much I wanted, I didn't know how to, but after that I used it as my baseline rate. I'm lucky that my very first meet was with an experienced (in that world) man, otherwise I wouldn't have known what to set my rate as or how to go about asking to get paid. I know you don't want to do PPM but it unfortunately has to start off that way (and 90% of the time stays that way) because there are too many men hoping to get away with lying about providing a proper arrangement.How do you ask for money? Because that feels very escort-y and I'm not sure how you go about it all.
That was like an after dark trip advisor reviewAs London's being talked about, if we're meeting there I'll ask the girl if there's somewhere she's always wanted to try but hasn't, and same for choice of restaurant. However, I'll always try to book a table in the hotel restaurant if one's available.
I'll offer to send a car to collect her but most girls make their own way and those that accept will generally only want to be collected from the nearest tube station to the hotel, I assume because they'd prefer to keep their address/area as private as possible.
Depending on how dinner went, sometimes we just go straight to our room. At other times, if that feels 'rushed' then I suggest a drink in the hotel bar. I'll order a bottle of champagne, which will be too much for us to finish so after a glass or so, I'll suggest we have the bottle sent up to our room and finish it there. Sex always follows.
Of course sometimes my gentleman-piece is wasted and I'm with someone who's no stranger to this and doesn't need any nerves allayed, but as I've said before, I enjoy the whole experience, it's my Saturday night, and I don't necessarily just want to spend it all night in the room going at it(!)
For hotel, the most requested choice was the Shard for a while as everyone likes to get that shot standing at the window looking out on the city. However, I don't like the Shard particularly and think it overpriced for what it is, and after getting a stood-up a few times, now tend to use what I call the 'second tier 5 stars' which still have a wow-factor (in my opinion) but are more reasonably priced than the top tier Ritz, Savoy, Dorchester etc. My go-to hotel is Landmark and if that's unavailable then the May Fair which is better placed. I'm not overly entralled with the May Fair's rooms, which are as sparse as Travelodge in my opinion, but the public areas are nice and lively at the weekend and the girls like that, especially if you can book one of their 'VIP' tables. Landmark is better theatre and grander looking, rooms are better, but I have more 'mature' tastes, so could be getting that wrong. The point is, the rooms are much cheaper to the top tier, which I'm not averse to paying as I like those hotels myself, but as your chances of getting a no-show are quite high, it's pointless spending the money on a first get together.
in the summer, the Sunbourne Yacht Hotel is a 4-star down in Docklands which is a good venue. It's been featured on a few reality shows I believe, and again has an Instagrammable feature with its central staircase. It's nice, certainly a lot cheaper than the central hotels, but once you get out of the public areas, the corridors etc are a bit grim I think. The rooms are nice, however, and I always try to book a room facing the water. The restaurant is nice but popular so you can be stuffed if you book on short notice as you may not get a table, and the big draw back to the Sunbourne is that there's nothing really around it. You can get the cable car over to the O2 which has a couple of restaurants as backup if a table isn't available on the yacht. Being in a quiet area is exactly what some girls want and not really an issue if you're only spending one night. You only realise how out of everything you are if you spend more than a day there.
That's largely it in London. Raffles Hotel I see mentioned, I admit I'm not familiar with, but I'm not a Londoner.
Yup. Like in my case, I met this one man for lunch in a hotel and then we went up to his room. He claimed to be some big time gems dealer with his own mines and talked about how amazing his last arrangement was and how wonderfully it all worked out (red flag, do NOT believe men who say they had an arrangement where they provided things, 9/10 times it's a straight up lie). I thought the same would happen to me, like we'd get in this arrangement and he'd get me a personal trainer and nose job (what he suggested, I was 19 and naïve I didn't ask him for anything), so I was like ok this is a sweet deal and slept with him. A couple of days later I had some pain in my ear and decided to text him to send me some money to get it checked out, he blocked me. I was confused because I thought we'd gotten into an arrangement and he was supposed to 'take care' of me, plus we'd already slept together, but nope, they'll just butter you up with stories of how successful their last arrangement was, and I bet anything that if I hadn't asked for money he would've continued pretending the personal trainer and nose job were gonna happen while getting to sleep with me for free.How do the guys go about ripping you off? Just not give you money? How do you ask for money? Because that feels very escort-y and I'm not sure how you go about it all.

So you’re expecting the girl to go through with all of this and risk not getting paid at the end? I would no way accept payment at the end. I understand your point completely re them potentially doing a runner but there has to be some compromise surely; most women would want payment upfront from a man they’d never met before surely?Overnight is what I ask for. If a girl wants £££ for a couple hours, well that's the hooker experience and rates, and that's not what I'm after. It's not worth the journey to me, simply for that.
The girl will usually leave at check out with me after breakfast, and of course being a man, after another morning 'round' or two in bed as well.
I know how that sounds, and Bonnie Bisou will be thinking I really take my pound of flesh, but I want to be honest, and I'm not pretending to be an angel.
So in keeping with honesty, yes, whosthischick, it is usually just one meeting. However, that said, I have a type, and if she checks all my boxes, then I'm going to want to see her again. By type, I don't just mean blonde or brunette or whatever, but a twinkle in her eye and funny. Whilst I appreciate a beautiful woman the same as any other man, the 'ice maiden' performance isn't one that I like to be around for any extended period. I like what I call the 'Goldie Hawn's, the pretty but mischievous types, who are just fun to be around.
Re money, as per leavemealone's experience, I give in a envelope at the end of the date. At the end as I've heard stories of girls getting the money and doing a runner i.e. goes to powder her nose at the bar/restaurant and never returns, or does a runner from the hotel room while you're in the bathroom. The money is cash and £20 notes. £20s for a couple of reasons: 1) It's easier for her to use without questions as to where she's suddenly getting £50 bills from 2) £500 in £20 notes looks way more than in £50 notes, and it's better 'psychologically' for want of a better term, and again, to be honest, it's just better 'theatre'.
I wasn’t too worried about his wife finding out, he had kept it hidden from her for so long, and I didn’t give him my real name either so I doubt she’d get my details. But a lot of men on there are married so chances are you’d find one that is. The guy I met was actually very nice (aside from being married).Thanks for that. I read on reddit about a girl who got into a nightmare situation when the wife found out and got her contact details! So I wouldn't be interested in any married men but I suppose they wouldn't all necessarily be honest about that, so it's a possibility but something I'd really rather not happen.
That sounds like a good guy you were meeting and somewhat relieving. It seems to be a theme though that a lot of guys are pretending to be what they're not.
How do the guys go about ripping you off? Just not give you money? How do you ask for money? Because that feels very escort-y and I'm not sure how you go about it all.
Thanks. Block you after you met? Like, for lunch, or 'met-met' so to speak and you didn't get anything?
Did you not find the men attractive or is that me being naive and you get nowhere thinking like that (but so long as they're nice).
Overnight is what I ask for. If a girl wants £££ for a couple hours, well that's the hooker experience and rates, and that's not what I'm after. It's not worth the journey to me, simply for that.That's another question I have, are these dates expected to be overnights usually?
@NotPBW when do you give the girl the money? Do you see each other again or is it just one night usually and that's it?
WowAnd yeah, most don't use condoms. The only ones who did were the ones strictly looking to meet for 2-3 hours and made it clear that's all they wanted.
£500......I’m pretty shocked at this poor amount considering she has to spend a whole evening with you, possibly overnight.But taking £500 as typical for London, then with my travel, hotel, dinner and sundries, a one night date generally costs me in the region of £1k.
I always ask how much she wants. Not so bluntly, I have a way of politely putting it, of course.@NotPBW how much do you give the girls/spend on a typical date?
I'm not a teenager anymore haha! Over my 21st birthday but still young enough to qualify as a sugar baby... I hope!If you don't mind me asking, @whosthischick, how old are you? I don't mean to sound patronising at all, but I do think it makes a difference between 18, 25 and 30yo etc as to how you can handle things etc (though some girls seem to have lived a life by 22yo that'd have turned me inside out).
Not btw, that age makes you immune to bullshitting players, as God knows I'm testament to - x
I've only created a profile so far. No pics of me yet. I login and look but haven't taken the plunge properly yet but there are guys I've favourited. Was kind of hoping anyone who has done this could be honest, like safety and anything else I should be aware but I maybe haven't thought of. @leavemealone spoke of being a potnoodle build and that's me so that struck a chord. Funny stories are welcome too, I'm not looking to get scared out of my skin!@whosthischick can you share your experience? X
