Both of you get tested. Also at the same lab, ask for a sperm-count test. Should be zero if he has had a vasectomy. Then buy a male chastity device like this: https://www.amazon.com/Bondage-Shop4u-Male-Chastity-Belt-Cage/dp/B00BPN2C4I
Boom, now he can't have sex with other women. And you know he is STD negative and has no swimmers.
Now you can fuck without condom. Enjoy.
You could get him a nice book as a make-up gift, this will cheer him up no doubt:
"A Generation of Sociopaths: How the Baby Boomers Betrayed America" https://www.amazon.com/Generation-Sociopaths-Boomers-Betrayed-America/dp/0316395781
"In A Generation of Sociopaths, Gibney examines the disastrous policies of the most powerful generation in modern history, showing how the Boomers ruthlessly enriched themselves at the expense of future generations."
I was feeling a bit unmotivated/overwhelmed during my midterms this semester and my SD overnighted one of his favorite books to me (Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill) along with an envelope of cash and a gift card to a spa to relieve my stress. He knows I love books, and I've never had a massage before. It was such a sweet and thoughtful gesture and I had no idea what was in the package when I received it since he wanted to surprise me. Well, he certainly did as it really caught me off guard!
The real question is: When will "Seeking" reach the breaking point where no real SD forks out money to see profiles of women seeking love outside their league.
They choose to compete with match.com and similar sites. They are losing their USP.
I hope they have done their homework and will be able to attract enough paying millionaires looking for real love and significant others on "Seeking". Good luck.
The site to match like minded people looking for an arrangement is no more.
Edit: Changed "SA" to "Seeking".
Step one would be to search Google images for your pictures you are using on the site.
Go to Google Image search, click on the camera icon and upload your pictures. Hopefully that will indicate the sites they are being posted to (if that is how they are searching).
You don't have to read "financial" related books to be pragmatic when it comes to financial decision, just the general outline is enough. Here are some recommendations:
It's better to read about failures than success stories, in a way you can learn what not to do.
> roughly the same thing
Cambridge states the more modern meaning, which encompasses anyone in the industry. It is more often times used to explicitly single out prostitutes, but if it pleases everyone to start saying "sex industry workers" instead of sex workers we can do that too.
Given the diversity of the bowl it is not a fair statement to say that all relationships include cash and intimacy. But a majority require both, and expect both, and I can't see the argument or understand the cognitive dissonance whenever this conversation comes up. It is what it is. Pretending to be at the top of the whorearchy because some of us are not explicitly prostitutes doesn't change the base of 95% of sugar relationships, which is a cash and intimacy transaction
I’m rereading The Gift of Fear a second time in three days, and this advice seems right up that alley.

I want to caution SDs to read this:
https://www.schwab.com/resource-center/insights/content/how-to-value-a-gift-of-stock
Or talk to your accountants before gifting shares of stock to your SB. In short it's not a great idea in almost all cases. The SD gets hit with gift tax at the appreciated value but the SB is stuck with a tax bill when they sell the shares for the difference from the original cost basis. It's a great way to maximize taxes for everyone and an unpleasant surprise for the SB that most likely has spent the money when she sold her gifted shares. Proceed with caution
I'm surprised 0327's SB hasn't mentioned this to him. A very large tax bill is hard to miss

So closed minded, a true pansexual isn't limited to just people ... Lando Calrissian doesn't limit himself to just people.
There was a TV show on the BBC in 2019 about Seeking and Brendon Wade and I posted about it here:-
"Secrets of Sugar Baby Dating" - TV Programme and Interview with Brandon Wade
I've since deleted my original post but you can still see the replies. This was about a BBC programme that is still available on BBC iplayer but, if you don't live in the UK then you will need a VPN to view it:-
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p07bmxj3/secrets-of-sugar-baby-dating
In the original post I said of Brandon:-
>There was then a section with Brandon Wade which was about 12 minutes long in total. It started with a tour of his expensive Vegas home and meeting his spoiled girlfriend (22, slim, blonde but, perhaps surprisingly, not particularly pretty) of the last year or so by the name of Zoe. Brandon stated that he was polyamorous and that he had seen a few SBs since he and Zoe had been together. > >The look on Zoe's face while he was describing other SBs said a lot even though she claimed not to be jealous at all. > >The reporter asked that since he was polyamorous presumably he was ok with Zoe having other partners as well. You can guess the answer to that question - a definite no. He also said they were planning on starting a family soon.
I recognize that these relationships tend to be short term, and that's just the way it is. It's why we compensate people for their time/get compensation. To put it in a metaphor, I see it like discovering a beautiful flower in the middle of a field. You can pick it and try to own it forever, but it will probably die a few days later. Or you can spend some time with it and enjoy the sights and smells...then when you've moved on, you can remember it fondly.
A book that may help you was written by Shel Silverstein. It's actually one of my favourite books. If you like the book, please buy it...but you can also find it online here: https://www.slideshare.net/mobile/cyaneum/the-missing-piece-meets-the-big-o

>Do we think they really want to have match.com and a zillion other sites as direct competitors? I doubt it.
^ This, 1,000%. The theory keeps cropping up in this sub that we're trying to turn vanilla, but literally everyone in this building understands that the reason we exist and are successful is because we're niche. We aren't trying to break out of our niche to grow; we understand that breaking out of our niche means removing the one thing that makes us truly unique, and pits us against better populated and better funded alternatives. Yeah, we're not interested in that. We quite enjoy our niche. :)

>It still runs on my phone and iPad. I wonder if that will change.
It will change within a few months. The app will continue to work normally on your phone until we ultimately have to decommission it when it becomes incompatible with our website (which may happen pretty soon; we have a lot of big features coming up).
For the non-technical or just the ignorant, VPN stands for Virtual Private Network.
It essentially masks your IP address (a unique identifier), a value your computer stores that identifies your computer on the internet. A reasonably savvy technical person can use this information to track your location, or at least region.
A VPN service (most are paid) can easily be purchased online and installed to run on startup. The service I use is called PIA (Private Internet Access):
It is relatively cheap @ $40/yr.
More about VPN can be found here for the curious:
It's not about "stingy," so much as it's about practicality. A couple of points I'd like to make:
Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy security, and that lets you devote time to whatever it is that brings your life joy/meaning/whatever. There's a point for everyone where it doesn't make any more sense to work at something you don't love, and spending money on frivolous crap delays that.
I average 24.5% annually on my investments. That means if I don't buy a new M6 for $126,000 this year, and I can continue to earn the same return on that money, then in ten years it will have grown to a bit over $1.1 million. In those terms that's one fucking expensive car.
-deleted information that might be too personal -
And I'm not alone: check out the book called The Millionaire Next Door. Most millionaires are frugal - hell, look at Warren Buffet and his annual expenses versus his wealth.
I think the perception that rich people spend money extravagantly is false. I think that for the most part (and please don't get offended) the folks with extravagant lifestyles are those with high earnings, but not necessarily a high net worth.
I have taken nearly ever thing sugar wise on there as people living in a different reality.
This is me the whole time am looking at the sugar baby tag: http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_loykerIYre1qj60veo1_500.gif (https://www.tumblr.com/tagged/sugar-baby)
A perfect example of being in a different reality. "The first POT I ever met is actually still one of my SDs to this day...... He pays 1500 for each meet and there’s never sex involved. And from that point in, I was hooked."
While am paying SBs 400 bucks a date and always getting laid.
This is almost like the argument in the podcast I heard recently. Sex and money has always been interrelated in an interesting social economic ways. https://www.iheart.com/podcast/85-mating-matters-with-dr-wend-30467953/episode/sexy-money-30685289/
Overall very good. Love profile pic but would crop down to you; On a thumbnail on search you will be very small.
You come off as smart and down to earth; which is what attracts me but text maybe a little too much match.com. Maybe a little more subtle hints of sugar relationship as it comes off pretty vanilla. which is fine if thats what want to convey.
Maybe remove the balcony pic.
Multiple locations usually a orange flag for many. stick to one primary location
95% of a profile is good pics, and no negativity in your profile. You have good pics and your profile isn't negative, and that's enough for me to favorite you to consider some other day.
However, if you wanted to have a compelling profile that got me messaging immediately, I think the best advice here is: Don't think about your profile the same way you think about your Tinder or Match.com profile. In a compelling profile, your About Me section isn't really all about you. You're trying to attract a wealthy man who has a lot of options on SA... tell us why you'd make a great SB, why it will be fun and interesting and exciting to be in an arrangement with you. When an SB can evoke that, that's why I'm messaging her immediately
If you start investing now and you only do the bare minimum such as investing 10% of your income into stocks per month than it should take you between 10-15 years to build enough passive income to where you never have to work again.
If you get serious about learning and start a business or invest in real estate you can cut down on that time considerably.
Two books that I tell anyone who is serious about reaching early financial independence are:
"Rich Dad Poor Dad," by Robert Kiyosaki And "The Richest Man in Babylon," by George S Clason.
Those books will give you the correct mindset on how to look at money and how to start accumulating wealth.
Choose the one that shows up :)
Seriously, you're never going to get to know someone my messaging them on SA's chat room. Talk to them a bit (sounds like you have), and don't read to much into the money - everybody is a billionaire/supermodel on the internet.
If you're not sure about something, go with your gut, if they ask for a number, maybe use a burner app like...Burner (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.adhoclabs.burner&hl=en) that gives you a disposable number for calling/texting.
See if they want to meet for a lunch or dinner (public place, no expectations on either side) and figure out of your comfortable with them - I always figure if you can't enjoy an hour having dinner with someone you just met, if there's no connection, there's probably no future. Same as regular dating. If you're on the same page, then talk money for sure, get it over with and move forward - or not. Yes, like regular dating, tell someone you're meeting somebody new and ask your friend to call you during dinner - most normal guys will totally understand that.
...yes, and keep reading this forum - there's the odd bitter folks on here, but some good tips too :)
You might consider Air BNB
I found a great place in Monterey - out of the CBD and with bay across the street. Owner was very cool with the concept as it was much less of a burden than folks cooking etc . Spotless private with a great little bar down the street.
I just grabbed this off air bnb as an example in the sunset
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/17984591?location=San%20Francisco&s=oxhl6h2_
The space
The space is a large studio within a single family home.
Guests will have access to their own private bathroom, cooking, and eating area.
Guests can conveniently access this space through a separate entrance door on the lower floor.
This listing has 1 queen bed and plenty of chairs to rest on.
Guest access
Guests will only have access to the space listed. (See Photos)
NOTE: No Kitchen but a well equipped family bar and island with 2 burner cooktop. Because of the many places to eat around the neighborhood, most guests prefer to bring food back or go out to eat at a restaurant. No ingredients supplied. Plastic utensils provided for easy clean-up (paper plates, cups, and napkins).
NOTE: Plenty of free street parking right outside so that parking is not a struggle. Read street cleaning signs and turn wheels correctly to avoid tickets. Please do not park in the driveway.
I see that you were rightfully down voted. If you are going to make a statement like this, be prepared to back it up with evidence.
For example, of all US males, 47% reproduce. Source: https://www.webmd.com/men/news/20060601/how-many-men-become-fathers
Of all US females, between 80% and 90% reproduce. Source: http://www.pewsocialtrends.org/2018/01/18/theyre-waiting-longer-but-u-s-women-today-more-likely-to-have-children-than-a-decade-ago/
If your assertion can be easily googled, you can just say that.
But the way you have made your assertion - opinion, not fact, wrapped in numbers - makes you look like an opinionated, lazy, idiot. Of course you are going to get downvoted. It isn't worth reading.
If you're referring to privacy.com - they're awesome, but don't work on SA. They block transactions involving W8 Tech (the company that owns SA and WYP) - I had an issue with this and had an extended discussion with their tech support about it. It was 6-12 months ago though so maybe that has changed.
Just to clarify the definition, real estate is usually not considered to be "liquid assets" (nor is any kind of personal property even if it has a high price tag).
Definition on Motley Fool site: "What Is a Liquid Asset? Liquid assets can be easily converted to cash in order to pay current obligations. A liquid asset refers to cash or any other asset that can be easily converted to cash at or near its market value. Aside from cash, liquid assets include items like investments, as well as accounts receivable and inventory. Non-liquid assets include things such as real estate, machinery, and patents, since they can't be turned into cash quickly." https://www.fool.com/knowledge-center/what-is-a-liquid-asset.aspx
"liquid net worth" is the sum of all liquid assets, minus the sum of all debts. So if you own a home and are paying a mortgage on it, the value of the home does NOT go in the plus column, but the remaining principal on the mortgage DOES go in the minus column. This helps explain ClutchCitySD's comment: "there aren't THAT many $1 millionaires (liquid net worth) ...".
Fabulous :) I had a copy of that on my xmas list (http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/BookDetailsPL?bi=11315772335) but didn't get it :( so hopefully he'll get me it for my birthday. My french is terrible though!
The main distinctions that you want to pay attention to: https://www.airbnb.com/help/article/5/what-does-the-room-type-of-a-listing-mean
I've used Airbnb when traveling with a group of friends, not by myself or with a gf/sb. My only concern would be the cleanup. It's kind of buzz kill to clean up after yourself at the end of the stay. Then again, I have a maid and haven't cleaned or done laundry since college.
This is a place that I've rented before:
https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/4725977?s=ByNb
It's a very relaxed, nice and quiet place close to the beach and has free parking (which is a rare find down here).
Is this a Tumblr "thing"?
Do all of the young women on Tumbler really think this is how it works? Or is it just a misguided front?
Was looking for an alternative to SA and discovered plenty of interesting posts...
https://www.ionos.com/digitalguide/hosting/technical-matters/error-522-explanation-and-solutions/
It just means that there's a problem connecting to the content delivery network.
It is a common problem.
I think you have already made your decision, but don't like it, and want people here to change your mind. In my opinion, you have come to the right conclusion. There are a ton of SDs out there. It just takes a little time to get situated to the environment, because it is quite different than say a match.com like you mentioned.
Take it slow, there is no rush, or maybe there is, and you will find the type of arrangement you are looking for.
>FORGIVE ME if I am concerned about my safety
Your are not being rational. The Georgia sex trafficking cases stem from coyotes and similar phenomena. Show me a single case that stems from SA, Plenty of Fish, OK Cupid, Match.com, EHarmony, or similar. Those numbers are officially nonzero, because of sting operations where the "woman" is an undercover officer. But in reality, no such case exists.
I think it is the fast pace of everything in NYC. You get accustomed to it and it becomes the norm.
When I was dating on Match.com, it was similarly fast paced. Short message exchange, quick coffee meets, schedule the date if both are interested. If not, NEXT.
People use the actual date to determine if there is compatibility. I am finding this to be true in vanilla and sugaring. A lot of conversation and getting to know each other during the intimate date.
>We spoke with Apple, and they informed us that dating sites where women are looking to meet rich, successful men are no longer supported
It is what it is and I doubt that Seeking really wants to change anything except their appearance. Changing their name and other changes were only cosmetic. Do we think they really want to have match.com and a zillion other sites as direct competitors? I doubt it.
I downloaded the app from the Apple store only a week ago the SA app stopped working. It still runs on my phone and iPad. I wonder if that will change.
I just skimmed it but it's fantastic, will read it at my leisure later. One thing I didn't see mentioned: the "we have to test sexual compatibility before we start an arrangement" thing.
I also don't remember if you mentioned that it's a best practice to start out the arrangement as PPM (or weekly?), and if monthly is desired, move to that down the line. Obviously, that's more to protect the SD than the SB, but an SB who asks for monthly from the jump is going to get next'ed alot
And, just to make it a complete, 360-degree tip cheatsheet -- add a small section on profiles? Standard stuff we talk about here: pics (especially profile pic) are everything, it's not a Match.com profile, focus more on what you'll bring to him, do not be negative, focus more on attracting high-quality SDs than venting at scammers who aren't reading anyway
Get a trustwallet. No information is needed. But if he sends it to your call app he won't know any personal info other than the address you provided from him. Or you can request it. Either way your info is private no matter what platform. Coinbase, crypto.com, gate.io, Bobby knows anything about you but the address. I send coins back and forth between wallets all the time. Trust wallet is private with none of my personal info at all attached to it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wallet.crypto.trustapp this is the app but you can just type in trustwallet in the app store. Research it on YouTube.
A lot of the article is a recycling/adaption of the "Getting to Yes" classic. Certainly a tactic worth trying. As /u/orsugar correctly pointed out, there are situations when making the first offer will almost always work against you. You can try that - or almost anything - with a newbie. If one has been in the business (or a game) for a few years - your asking even a measly $200-300 over what "the market or industry" has on offer will result in barely suppressed smirk and a polite dismissal.
You have 2-5 seconds to attract with a photo or title
The profile is an Ad for something that's perhaps a $10K - $50K purchase/investment. It should have that quality IF that's the target audience. If you vision is a shorter relationship based on value that's another beginning point.
Guys are visual - but that does not mean you need to be half naked or have 10 photos three max 4 photos each with a mission purpose.
Make every word count. Edit as if words were $10 each. If this is a foreign concept read something by Steven Pressfield - Legend of Bagger Vance, Gates of Fire, The War of Art. Each word is essential to the meaning.
Few will want to know about your cats. However, a picture of you out running with your dog may resonate with many. Look for value - many men appreciate mid-west values, backgrounds, education , interests .
Sell the sizzle energy, intelligence, sensuality , niceness ( or not) make it an investment not an expense
The best way to go from "I think I will try it" to success is to invest the time in a great profile. Treat it like a school project
- collect all your thoughts on unlined white paper , edit, do an outline , write profile , edit and final spell check.
Paint a picture for him how this will improve his life
Help him self screen........in a way that will attract what you want and deter time wasters from even responding.
Be intriguing , trashy only if that's your marketing theme.

I do shave the sides and the good parts but leave a trimmed rounded martini glass. I don't wax as my skin can't handle it, it takes 2+ days for my skin to heal afterward (sensitive/fair skinned). I honestly wish I did not have to shave my sides as that's where blemishes form first, along the panty line. I would rather have it all just well trimmed rather than present irritated skin with red bumps to my SD. I can manage this issue well enough but around three days after the shave, along with the right topical oils, they will find there way through.
And then there's the issue of re-shaving over hair that is too short to be shaved because your meetings with your SD are too close together.. it's a recipe for irritation. No one is making me do upkeep, no preferences have been voiced, I just do it for my own standards of what I should present to an SD.
Should this go in rants & raves? 😂
Use the free app called textfree
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pinger.textfree
It gives you a new number in your desired area and you can text.
This protects your privacy and gives extra discretion.
The catch is you have to watch ads when you texting.
It's the best!!

I'm an SD. I use condoms until we have "the conversation"... which includes discussions about STD testing, birth control, what other partners (if any) are out there, etc. I don't have "the conversation" until a certain level of mutual trust is developed.

I think the outfit is great - and that is my personal opinion.
You want the opinion of the POT you will be meeting.
If you want to dress up that outfit with minimal effort, cost, or heat issues, you could always add a sheer top blouse over the Peach colored one.
Found a great one on Amazon for $22
https://www.amazon.com/Verdusa-Womens-Button-Sleeve-Shoulder/dp/B09LCW9PSY/ref=sr_1_7?keywords=Women%27s+Sheer+Blouses&qid=1657908347&sr=8-7
The above is just a suggestion and/or example - but there are easy ways to dress up or down any outfit.
As for Too Many eyes - that is a good thing (for some) - some guys like to be with someone who draws admiring looks. Others like to keep a low profile.
When in doubt you could always directly ask SD what kind of an outfit he would prefer?
Summer casual? Something a bit dressy? Etc.
For a meet & greet asking for a summer dress would be odd
However, for any future dates - requesting one is fine
(Please send the link to the exact website so it's easy for SD!)

<em>The Millionaire Next Door: The Surprising Secrets of America's Wealthy</em>
I have a close friend, never married, no dependents, who has a seven-digit net worth. Lives debt-free in a small single family home in a quiet suburb. About the only things he spends money on are his motorcycles and occasional travel. From the outside, you'd never know he's a millionaire, but he's set for life and can retire from his engineering career anytime he wants.

Save every single one of their pics and upload it to https://images.google.com/ to do a reverse image search. I discovered so many guys lying about their net worth by doing this. One said he was worth 100 mil but he works in HR making 60k (found his LinkedIn by reverse image searching) and looked up his salary on Glassdoor.
So my tips: always image reverse search every single photo (don't give up after 2 or 3 photos show nothing). Google usernames, email addresses and phone numbers.
I never meet up with anyone or waste my time chatting unless I can verify that their profile has some truth to it as a high majority are liars.
FYI - SBs if you are reading this far, the identity verificiation information is available to both Stripe (obviously) and SF. link. Once SF gets hacked, and they will, your information will become public.
> Shoot me a PM if you want some tech advice. I was thinking about making a post on here actually with some basic tips.
Actually I used to work for Godaddy and currently work for an IT startup so I'm pretty familiar with the tech stuff. The thing that worried me about the AM hack was whether or not they took the breach seriously enough to completely overhaul their security measures. There's actually a really interesting documentary on Netflix about the attack if you're interested.
> Regardless, good on you for not just giving up like me and being persistent and patient.
Don't give up! Just from the way you kindly and respectfully responded to me, I think your personality seems just fine! Feel free to PM me if you want to chat, I love making new friends and maybe I can give you some advice on your profile-making from an SB perspective! :)
If you do all that and you still get banned, try using a different browser, HOWEVER, keep in mind your profile text might be getting you banned. mentioning allowance or PPM can get you banned, for example.

My Latin teacher was Charlie Jenney. IIRC first and second year were basic grammar, third year we read Caesar's Gallic Wars, fourth, fifth and sixth years we read a series of authors using the Loeb Classical Library series, including Cicero, Virgil, Seneca, Ovid, and more.

You Need A Budget (YNAB) flips the spending tracking around to really help you budget ahead of time. I think that reddit personal finance guide mentions it. It is especially good for people who have irregular income or occasionally get large payments. I recommend it to junior salespeople all the time.
"I refuse to offer weekly or monthly allowance"
"There must be some sugarbabies looking for something more like me or am I barking up the wrong tree?"
You are barking up the wrong tree. Go to OKCupid or Match.com for the vanilla relationship you are seeking.
Favoriting on SA isn't the same as if someone favorites you on Match.com or whatever -- it's not necessarily an expression of strong interest, it's just bookmarking ("save this profile for later so I can re-read it to see if I'm interested"). If I favorite you, in most cases the soonest I'll send a message is a few days, and it may be weeks before I go through my incredibly long favorites list and figure out who I will and won't message.
You are free to message anyone who favorites you, there's no etiquette preventing you from doing so

You mean books wise? A nice short read is David Foster Wallace’s This Is Water, sub-10 minute read but leaves a lot to think about
As a Sugar Daddy, I can buy all the toys I want. What I prefer as a gift is something small and personal.
Or, if she gives me the gift of herself.
Dressing up for me from sexy/slutty to all out glamourous with [or without] lingerie.
Fulfilling a fantasy of mine
Star by reading "The Richest Man in Babylon." by George S. Clason. And "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki.
After that get an Audible Membership and while you are at the gym listen to everything you can get your hands on about finance and personal development.
If feels like it takes a long time to become successful when you are going through it but if you stay on your path when you look back you will realize how incredibly quick it was.
Never tried it in a crock pot so please let me know how to turns out. I have used a Ronco 4000 and it's really easy if you estimate the correct time. :)
A quick 5 second google search turned up these. Very basic photo editing skills and the right picture, and you could have a realistic looking picture with anything you want written on the paper.
>Copied the pics from some blond girl, quite cute & athletic, with a bikini pic
That is not cool. If you are curious and want to do this (I did myself) you can generate fake pics with sites like thispersondoesnotexist.com without stealing pics from a living person.
The only time I've ever heard anybody actually say "pot" was on a BBC documentary that was investigating sugaring.
It was from a young SB in London who stated that she received around double what the going rate in the UK is (according to the Allowance Master Thread here) but the amount is certainly within the bounds of possibility.
From the way she talked and how she went about things she seemed to be well acquainted with this sub - I've never heard anyone else outside of this sub refer to "POT" - and she seemed to be doing very well for herself. If you live in the UK or have access to a VPN then you can watch the documentary on BBC iplayer here:-
Yes, there is a pro version. It's very much commis chefs and sous chefs etc from different restaurants taking part.
I presume from your name that you're in Canada?
I think it may be available on BBC America, or, if you have a VPN and can access BBC iplayer then the latest season is available here:-
https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/b00mx9xb/masterchef-the-professionals
There are some earlier seasons that seem to be available on youtube. I'm not entirely sure as they are blocked in the UK - I don't know if they'll also be blocked in Canada, but if not, there are some episodes available from the 2014 season:-
Send them a DMCA, since you own the rights to the photo they put on the website. That will get them to at least remove the picture from it. I suggest you send it to their contact form and also to CloudFlare (their vpn): https://www.cloudflare.com/abuse/form (notice that filling it with CloudFlare will give the website owners your full name and possibly address, use a LLC if possible).
I don't think that website is actually user contributed. It seems to just try to scam people out of their cash by referring to removal services. The submit form here says "Your Ip Range and Devices Have Been Blocked From Making Submissions", but I doubt it's different for anyone else.
I found out about it from a radio station, here's the link to the full list of courses being offered. Just click away!Enrolling and taking the classes are free, you have an option for paying to get a certificate upon completion, which is optional.I already have 3 degrees prior to this, but it's always fun to learn new things.Especially now being quarantined and all, keeps my brain engaged and my sanity in check.
I'm actually taking this course together with my sugar lover. We have a competition who can get the better grade! Wish me luck~
Act like you would meeting a regular online date.
Restaurant dont put us in the sugar section or sign on our table. Two people having a drink or meal, conversation etc.
If the POT SB seems comfortable; some chemistry; potential for SR. SD should ease into SR conversation. But if you show up all nervous and acting we arent just two people we wouldnt even get to sugar part of discussion.
Been back in bowl and had a M&G with someone who was first M&G and after she was like wow that went great. This is just like meeting someone off match.com...lol. Your mileage may vary. She ended up having second thoughts about actually being a SB. Its one thing to think it sounds fun but till you have your real first SR you dont know if for you.
After good M&G you should feel safe and comfortable as much as if you had a first tinder date.
Your profile looks great. However, I don't think you will have very much luck. The ambitious sugar daddies like me that make a lot of money don't tend to want platonic dates. This makes me question if you are new to the bowl. If I wanted something platonic, then I would just go on match.com and not pay for you.
First, I believe you are genuine.
Second, I have only had this happen to me once and it was off Match.com.
Third, a sample size of 4 is too small. Keep your head down and do what you do brother. I think all things considered life will normalize for you.
It's not clear if you are SD, SM or SB.
If SD or SM, I would say you can have success in the sugar bowl with average looks.
If Sugar Baby with average looks, I would say probably not. As a male, if I want to date a woman with average looks I just go to Match.com and date for FREE.
OK.
"To my would be SD, I would love to hike the Windy Mountain Loop with you and see the aspen turning in the fall or the wildflowers blooming in the spring. Lets make memories together both outside and in <wink>."
