"Sugarbabies" / "Arrangements" Amateurs or Not?

[QUOTE=F Scott; 1319952]Golf,

This is a provocative and intriguing statement. Please expand. What trends do you notice, and then how do you respond?

Scott[/QUOTE]I don't know about being provocative or intreguing. I've always been a note-taker and I simply jot down notes of all my interactions, phone conversations, time together, in chronological order. Probably 90% is summarizing what she says. It's my way of listening to her, of being mindful of her point of view on this or that. As the relationship evolves my notes evolve.

There was an occasion in the past I thought I was being played by a girl. I went back to my notes and saw signs of it earlier that I hadn't picked up on myself. So I knew. It wasn't just a suspicion. I knew it was time to disappear.

I've got 32 years worth of them, and it is invaluable, as you say, to go back and track down some useful piece of information or idea. If I kept a Baby daybook, it could easily wind up as Exhibit A in my divorce proceedings!

Scott[/QUOTE]Mine is a word document on my laptop and is currently 1,200 pages. I do a back up every night using a keychain drive and even email myself a copy as an attachment before going to bed. I enter things using certain phrases so the search feature will be effective.

Understand that's not 1,200 pages of personal conquests.

Golf,

You've just given me an idea. I have an SD-dedicated email account with yahoo that I try and get the babies to use rather than the site. I only access it on-line using Firefox private browsing, so I'm pretty sure there is nothing resident on my computer once I log off. There is a notepad and calendar function with the account. This might be a good place to keep such information as you are describing, along with phone numbers, etc. I also have a pay-as-you-go phone, but it that were ever discovered by my SO, I'd have lots of 'splainin' to do.

I throw this out to the collected wisdom of the brotherhood: how do you all handle the storage of this kind of information?

Scott

Sum. Be*tch Golf.

I was wondering when the movie is coming out on these 1200 pages. Then I read that ALL notes are not on the Golfster's escapades. Still impressive; nice work.

[QUOTE=Golfcart; 1319701]Fix, I'the say you have a first class SB on your hands.

Expect to be two-timed (just like she is being) , expect it to be happening right now, it goes with the territory, so take what you get for what it is, making it easier to keep your emotions in check, and don't sweat anything.

Have a good time for as long as it lasts, expecting that it will not, because it won't.

Being a bachelor I am able to keep a diary of events with no difficulty. I find it alerts me to a trend taking shape before I would otherwise notice.

Read all 50 pages of this board. You will see yourself in many of the situations. It will help you see around the corners.[/QUOTE]I appreciate your advice Golfcart. I understand what it is but it is hard not to get emotionally involved. I am going to ride it out and enjoy it the most I can.

I have been reading up on the entire thread and this information is very helpful.

[QUOTE=Hernando; 1319741]Welcome to the Sugar Board Fix. We look forward to your contributions.

Sounds like you stumbled into a Sugar Daddy situation without knowing it years ago. It sounds great for you and hopefully you can keep it going. She is dirt cheap in the sugar world so enjoy that. One word of advice, don't pay her more for longer sessions, like overnight. You don't want her to value herself by the hour. Although, it has been going on for two years so you must have honed this relationship pretty well.[/QUOTE]You are correct. I never really knew much about the Sugar Daddy world until I came across this thread. Hopefully it continues how it is going.

Not knowing it I have been good about keeping the donation fairly consistent. I actually just got back from the first overnight with her and she was good with $.

I do give her an advance from time to time, which I know I shouldn't, but she has always made good on it.

[QUOTE=LuckyLou; 1319744]Fix,

Both are legendary and mythical and I believe you have stumbled on both. Enjoy it and live for the moment. Much of what Golf Cart says is probably true but we all create our own realities to a certain degree so I prefer to take a more Zen view and accept whatever comes my way. Send a note every once and a while from the promised land to keep all of us other grunts on the front lines motivated and inspired.

LL[/QUOTE]I do think I have found a good situation and will do my best to keep it going. The first overnight was a great time and am looking forward to the next one.

Have fun and thanks for all of the valuable information.

Scott[/QUOTE]I may have used the term inappropriately but basically I mean don't put anything out on the net. Any service that hosts your information (google, yahoo, microsoft, whatever) will retain it forever and you have no control over it. If you have a journal on your laptop or a thumb drive it can "disappear" quickly and permanently if need be. Just because you are using firefox in private mode does not mean that your IP Address isn't being tracked by the sites you go to. Everything comes back to that IP Address when someone with an agenda wants to go looking. At least that is my understanding of how things work.

If you're a Google user you can view and manage the data stored with your account in the dashboard of your account settings.

Just because you delete something on a hard-drive doesn't mean that it is permanently deleted. Forensic readers and file recovery software is available. The "File Allocation Table" (FAT) was explained for days in the Casey Anthony trial.

Lou and Fotog,

Your comments make me think that nothing is hidden from someone dedicated and clever enough to find it. If that is who I have going after my web footprints, I guess I don't stand a chance. My primary concern is the nosy browser finding a file or an email left open.

Have a great holiday. Seeing my ATF later this afternoon. Hooray for me!

Look through the Android "Market" for lock-out apps. One, I think is called "Lookout." If you run the app it requires a pin-number to get it out of sleep mode or access stored data. If anyone enters the pin-number incorrect 3 times it locks the phone and sets of a loud siren and flashing screen. You can also go online and lock the phone.

Like any device, they come with built-in features that require pin's and passwords on start-up or out of sleep mode.

Carelessness and laziness gets people busted more than anything. Steve Jobs didn't invent a device or App for that.

Gentlemen,

Just a quick, off-topic shout out to you all to wish you a happy Thanksgiving, however you are choosing to spend it. I myself will be with family, but the first few days of next month will be all alone, SO-wise, and am planning some marathon sessions with my college baby. Ouch, but also hooray!

As an aside, what pain relievers do you all recommend? I know I'm going to pull something, or at least try my hardest to do so.

Happy Thanksgiving,

Scott
