Sugarbabies?

[QUOTE=WanderingAbout;5536055]No hard and fast rule for landing a sugarbaby except you have to keep trying. Takes time.

Hey is a typical intro message from a SB to a SD. Doesn't mean they are not real. Just a common starting point.

The profiles that give you one, two, three word responses consistently and never engage in a real conversation are generally a waste of time.

Try this: Add a different market to your profile that you will never travel too. Like Dallas. Then message the hell out of the profiles in Dallas. Try different approaches and see which gets a response. If the Dallas SBs reply and ask why you are listed in two markets say Dallas is your home town but you come to Cincinnati for work. When you find an approach that works try it in Cincinnati with your real prospects. Reason not to do this message testing in Cincinnati is its your SB pool. Don't crap in your own pool with approaches that are sheeeet.[/QUOTE]This isn't the method I'd recommend using, but I'm a different person. I send a few sentences saying something about their profile and I'd like to get to know them better. There's usually some back and forth. Some will get right down to business. Others want to feel out the situation. Generally everyone knows who's there and why and are pretty open with what they're looking for and (maybe more important) what they're NOT looking for.

I'm honest with them, especially after I am confident they're real.

Took me straight to text. Strike 1. Number gets a name, which she / he shares, but no reliable PII. Catfish?? Sent me to a fundraiser site I had never seen before. Apparently a Nando1. Strike 2. Finally hit with a tale of woe about a heart condition, being hospitalized and needing a small amount for medicine before she can get out: 82.84 and will not let me bring the money to her in the hospital. Strike 3. Closed with a bitter text accusing me of treating her like she was a low down scammer. I am so ashamed!

Bam.

I have been chatting with this one. Seems friendly and legit, though a bit scattered. Any info would be appreciated. Feel free to PM me.

This one seems to be a time-waster, though I'm not entirely certain what her game is. When you ask her to meet, or what she's looking for in an arrangement, she'll immediately reply that she's "not a hooker".

And I am always extremely circumspect when messaging on Seeking, I should note.

May be a rinser. Not sure.

Chatted this one up. She is very much down for fun at 2 bills an hour. Seems friendly and flexible with requests. Doesn't drink but is 420 friendly. She has no car and asks to be picked up but also offered up that her girlfriend could drive her for gas money. Stays down Erlanger way.

Ended up not meeting due to schedule conflicts. Saw no red flags and will consider for future fun.

Found her to be a waste of time. Interest faded quickly as her messages never really said anything meaningful or actionable. Platonic vibes. YMMV.

Same here as other comments. Messages sounding eager then ghosts.

Bam.

Wonder if anyone knows of her? She's very flakey with repeated no-shows and ghosting after making a commitment.

[QUOTE=WanderingAbout;5541083]Found her to be a waste of time. Interest faded quickly as her messages never really said anything meaningful or actionable. Platonic vibes. YMMV.[/QUOTE]Says Platonic in her profile.

[QUOTE=TallCoolOne69;5541925]Says Platonic in her profile.[/QUOTE]Not arguing with you TCO. Some girls use platonic in their profile as a screening method to discourage guys who want a quickie from messaging them. Have met several using platonic in their profile who were open minded. So if she's your type and says platonic explore the opportunity to see what platonic really means to her.

[QUOTE=TallCoolOne69;5541925]Says Platonic in her profile.[/QUOTE]Platonic can mean no emotional connection but open to fuck. I have platonic relationships that are also sexual. People in open relationships can have platonic sexual encounters. It's not polyamory. But it would be best to clarify that in the early stages. When tku.

Agree! I have had the same experience.

You're wells respected and I follow your posts closely. I have given up on "Platonic" member's. Just never went anywhere after countless messages, maybe it's just me. I'd have better luck on Christian Mingles. HA!
