"Sugarbabies" / "Arrangements" Amateurs or Not?

[JZLizard]

You raise a good question about APPs -- you are correct, they are notorious for sweeping up a lod of information from your contacts if you let them, location data etc, and sending them BACK to the APP provider.

I am not sure that I would want SA to know all about my locations and real friends!

It begs the question about is it time to have burner smart phones?

A burner smartphone isn't a bad idea if you are able to keep it physically hidden from the SO. If she tends to get into your phone or personal business it is probably the only viable option.

As far as the apps themselves grabbing information, if that's a concern choose iPhone over Android and be sure to never jailbreak the phone. Android is much more susceptible to malware. The apps in the apple app store are under much more rigorous scrutiny, Apple won't let them in if they dubiously try to tap into things like contacts and location. Google Play store is a free for all cluster fuck full of potential security problems.

Seems VCU is ranked high in more than basketball. It's made SA's list of Top 20 of schools for SBs.

When I tried to install it one of the permissions it needed was to use accounts on the device for identification purposes. Can I stay completely anonymous with this app? Cannot have it use my phone # since this is my real phone!

A couple of posts ago, I reported on two pots. One appeared to be an escort posing as a Nando1 (ffs), and the other a true Nando1.

Did I mention that I have too much time on my hands?

Anyway, this Nando1 is a classic, and I intend to pursue her for amusement. I can't see it going any where.

She: I'm desperate, I'm getting evicted from my place, and not much hours at work.

Me: We could work something out. How much do you need?

She: $1000.

Me (chuckling): Oh dear, if only you'd contacted me last week, you'd have it by now! What bad luck. If you are up for everything, and I mean everything, I can pay you $250 the night.

She: OK.

Me: When?

She: Tonight.

Me, OK, I'll give you the meeting place if you msg me as you leave.

She: OK.

Long story short. Sorry, someone ran his car into my house.

Next, sorry. Have to tell police at the station.

Sorry, my mother had an accident.

Do you have PayPal?

Sorry, my car broke down.

Sorry, MY GOAT DIED!

This is priceless.

Going on an extended sabbatical, leaving the lifestyle. Just sharing a view of my favorite.

I followed this for a while and it is absolutely moronic. Look at it this way. Anyone (SD or SB) who has the time to keep up with the BS is either unemployed or retired and amusing themselves out of boredom. The girls are all GPS. Any "real life " SD contributions I made for a while were scoffed at. So I was wasting a lot of time when I would be better served prospecting for Pots.

SBs who know about and follow this blog (and we know some do since they have posted here before) can see where an SD is from, because we post it, and recognize themselves in our description. Maybe that is a stretch but a smart girl who reads it regularly can figure it out.

A Pot I was talking to is an AA 10/10 who demands up front identification before she will even make a M&G appointment. She will have limited success but maybe a single guy will do that. I am seeing this "safety" demand increasingly. I get it but this is not Match or POF and traditional dating, is it?

Fred,

I agree 100% on your assessment of the SA blog. I am retired at 62, and sometimes bored. So, bullseye!

The discussions start off on topic for a few posts, then descend into drivel. Every time.

However, they do reflect what a considerable number of pots think. GPS pots.

So why bother to read?

Simply because of curiosity initially, and after a while, being able to look at a profile, and brush it aside if I see the key words and phrases being used. Looking at the SA blog, for me, is just a bit of background research.

So, some time wasted looking at the blog, but less time wasted talking to pots and then finding out they are GPS.

Since start I have been excited about SugarDaddy approach and intrigued by the idea of providing 'emotional'sexual'financial'physical' support (saw this somewhere on earlier posts). With this in mind, I tried to register myself on these sites hoping to get in touch with mature women. My thought process was and IMO mature women (35 +) may not come bundled with 'DRAMA which may be associated with young women' and mature women having kids may have pretty clear idea of what they want out of SD arrangement, this might help both of us for pleasant relationship. Additionally I will be able to fill up some of sexual vacuum which these women may have in their lives possibly due to husband who does not provide emotional support or satisfy her sexual needs. This is the reason I'm particularly interested in mature women and they will also be longing to have someone satisfy their desires.

So with this approach I tried few websites which said that they provide genuine arrangements. At first I felt excited searching through multiple profiles of likely women whom I can reach out to, and did contact their via their profile. Rarely / never I got any responses from them and I'm starting to feel that either 'I'm doing something incorrect' to which mature women are not contacting me or its probably a scam to get our money by these sites.

I'm wondering if going out to local bar and hanging around with folks there will provide a chance to meet women (and in particular mature women) , with whom I can connect to and hangout with them and possibly get a chance to discuss on SD arrangement with them.

Is this a bad idea?

From a sweet asian GPS girl. 33 maybe a 6/7/8/? Cute tiny body. Lives 5 minutes from me. Life is tough all over.

"How long is per visit for you? I think you're asking for more time than my last SD and my allowance was $1000/ week plus whatever he likes to do / give more to me and I never had to say a word for that since he knew I was very uncomfortable with talking / asking money or materials. However we made it clear from the moment we agreed to have an arrangement. Anyway, we would meet only 2 x a week, sometimes overnight when he had the time so I'm sorry that coming to your place or meeting you 4 x a week definitely takes a lot of time for a very less financial return.

Otherwise, it's going to be at least $300 per visit or if I like you enough, maybe at least $500 2 x a week. 4 x a week, I may try if it's like $1000/ week. I do hate talking about money when we haven't met yet. But I'm sorry I just don't feel like to be taken advantage of or undervalued. This has to be beneficial for me as well as why I came to do this. I don't know what's going to happen later but for a start, this is going to be like.

It's not like I'm asking for $10,000 a month, though I was offered like that few times before, just don't really like the guys. So at this moment, I'm not sure if I would agree to meet you but if that's ok with you what I said above, we can then try to meet in person and see how it goes for us. ".

However, there are plenty of women out there working in low paid dreary jobs, unemployed, in debt, who didn't have the luck of being born in well off families. For someone with an empty fridge, with the fridge magnet stuffed full of overdue bills, the rent due in a couple of days, and no money in the bank, well their reality is that if they can get $200 overnight, it is a god send. And they are truly grateful.

Many in that situation are quite smart, but never having had rich parents, find the daily grind and bleak prospects really depressing.

I have only a small data set to work with, but I would agree with this. My SB is no longer teetering into Nando-1 like she was really early on (in fact I didn't really know how bad it was until recently). And I think I'm justified in taking some of the credit for stabilizing her situation, both from a personal support as well as financial perspective. Which is very rewarding.

In my specific situation, your last sentence is dead-on. She's quite smart, and is working hard to recover from her earlier educational blunders. Which were mostly a product of circumstance, and were she in a more supportive family environment she likely would have fared much better. So for now she's in a dead-end service job but also going to school, and it would be a huge blow for her to lose the hope of something better than the track she was on 18 mos ago.

Sorry, just realized that my last post came across as a question. It was supposed to read "it boggles the mind How many of these girls use the same pictures across their "real" lives as they do in these sites. ".

I'm also amazed at how much information some of these ladies are willing to share. Completely crazy to me.

Considering the number of stalkers out there, I am amazed as well.

Right while I was posting this reply I started talking to this one. I just googled her head shot and just the "name" part of her handle and voila. I get her twitter, college profile and model mayhem all in a couple minutes. She gained a couple since college but she did agree so far to the $ a date scenario. I started with the 123 letter. She is at least 20 lbs over my usual but hey, she lives in Hollywood. Lets see if she actually M&G's. But its good practice to chat it up here and there anyway not matter the outcome. I almost stopped M&Ging for 3 months so far. Did one or two. But starting to get a little itchy for someone new.

Just google their pic. Many times it leads back to their social media or model mayhem site.

One thing to remember, a lot of schools start class around the 2nd-3rd week in Jan. Some of these ladies are just getting back to school with some of mom & dads money in their account designed to get them through the next 8-10 weeks (so give them at least a week or two to deplete that particular account before they get hungry). Even if you don't specialize in college aged babies, their lack of presence tips the supply and demand scale in favor of the ladies.

Look for it to pick up more around Feb-March in most areas.

Good point. Been on conventional dating sites in the past. Primetime for that is October. Feb since they all want to hook up and find someone for the holidays or Valentine's. Guess there is a different flow.

Unrelated commentary. I'm having no luck right now. Might need to change my approach. I like to joke around. Seems like they take this stuff very seriously and like a business. On a side note, I posted a few days ago about GPS. I saw one new gal that straight up put her desired arrangement would start off with a $115 car. Yes in Ks. Make / model was very specific. Well, at least it made me laugh. Also there are more and more gals popping up that are just being upfront with the x of times of meetings per month and an outrageous monthly expectation. Pretty sure I can walk into almost any strip club find 5 of the hottest gals, 1/3 that offer and it'd be on.

[HollywoodGuy]

How many of these girls use the same pictures across their "real" lives as they do in these sites. As for using my handle here on the SD / SB sites. That would probably be fatal for me. I doubt any girl would touch me with a 10 ft pole if I used my handle from this website.

Just google their pic. Many times it leads back to their social media or model mayhem site.
