My experience on SA during Covid
[QUOTE=SeekAndDestroy;5182974]The site is no different today than it was this time last year. As always it takes a ton of work. [/QUOTE]New member here. No pun intended. New monger too, although I don't really consider myself a "monger," as with my limited time and freedom, will always likely be a "newbie" amongst the seasoned members here.
I had a 10 day intro on SA, which was successful, and sprung for the 30 day, and right after I paid up, the Covid thing hit last March. I swear it blew up on the news the next day, and I was p*ssed at my luck. But I found that the girls didn't have much concern about the virus and I had a fun time for the better part of a year from the harvest from that 30 day gig.
I just found this site and it would have saved me a lot of hassle and $$ on SA but whatever. Have been RTFF'ing here for a few weeks and want to report my experiences. Like I said I found all I could handle off SA for almost a year, which consisted of a few one and done's, one ongoing for 2 months, and finally a keeper type, ongoing for about 8 months. Keep in mind "all I can handle" is not much compared some guys here as I only want one at a time and not that often. But it was a success for me. I will post a few key things about SA if there are other newbies here.
Don't give $ up front. That's really the 1st commandment. Duh! But I fell for that and got burned. Not bad, but burned nonetheless. They will beg and come up with every excuse in the book, "Me and my kids are about to be evicted Monday!" and I think about those commercials with the homeless kids sitting on a tattered mattress on the sidewalk.. But DON'T DO IT! I learned that rather quickly. Even longer term "trusted" SBs. It will eventually happen if you give them $ up front.
I got lucky, I feel I got civvies and college girls, no pros. At least I think LOL. And lucky as I wasn't disappointed in IRL vs. Pictures, although one time I was fooled by the overhead pics. If that's all they have on their profile, or only upper body pics (both often showcasing bodacious boobs as a distraction tool) then they are probably hiding a big butt, or more likely, a belly or overall poor body shape. I got fooled but she was otherwise cool, had great tits, and a bunch of tattoos, which was kinda a fetish I wanted to cross off the list at my age. But that was a one and done.
Most SA girls will start pestering you to meet up again, almost right away, after the first date. Each guy has to handle that however. If you ignore that, they will go away eventually. But some will persist a long time. Even girls you want to see again want to see you more than you want to see them. That is one of the biggest drawbacks on SA imo, May not be an issue if you're young, have no ball and chain, and have $$ to blow.
It takes a lot of work. Messaging and messaging tons of women. I messaged between 100-200 I would imagine in 30 days. A good place to start messaging is the girls who favorite you. Sometimes I partook on the road as I travelled. But it's a numbers game. Luckily I am a prolific writer as this post shows. Also count on having no- shows a lot. But sometimes you hit pay dirt and makes it all worth it. May not be nearly as much work for younger guys though.
My long term SB kicked me to the curb over dispute about room $ as she no-showed me and stuck me with a room. That is another rule, don't get the room before meeting. Most the time I can't avoid that, but with her, it was a good risk as she showed months of reliability and drama-free dates. But you can never really trust these girls with $$ really.
Any who, Still trying to decide whether to dive back in or just wait til I get vaccinated. But for me, I'm at the age where the clock is ticking on this type of thing.
