A journey begins with a single step.
I've posted a few questions in here but today marks my earnest entry into the bowl.
I'm coming up on the end of my second month of paid membership, and looking back through my accomplishments I see that I have none. I've gotten too many messages to even begin to count. I've gotten maybe 10 or so contacts (phone numbers and / or emails). And yet I've been on a single M&G that did not go anywhere. And I see that I am squarely to blame.
I've read that this is a numbers game so obviously what I need to do is work on my funnel and go on more M&Gs. More failed M&Gs means that a successful one is that much closer.
I've practiced the intro message and do well there. I've even practiced the couple follow up messages and am getting pretty decent at getting either a phone number or email. The "secret" is literally just make small talk. Just make small talk until they offer up the contact info. Nothing more, nothing less. No sex talk, no arrangement talk, no anything, really. Just talk about what you did last weekend. What you're going to do next weekend. What the weather is like. At some point, with some ladies it is sooner, and some ladies it is later, they will drop a number. Easy.
Where my funnel breaks down is converting these numbers into M&Gs / FCs. I do not understand how to transition from talking about weather to talking about dollars per meet / sexual preferences in texts or emails. Perhaps that's the weakness of my strategy. Perhaps by being too nice and ensuring access to contact info it weakens the funnel down the line because I am not per-qualifying appropriately.
I have gotten the full spectrum of messages, however. From endless penpal style talks of the weather to first message into single email with an attached crotch shot and full a la carte menu. Sometimes I feel it is less what I say and more whoever I am saying it to. Still, I am not really in search of obvious pros /UTRs. If I was I would just follow up with every "hey" message I get, which is tons.
The question that is hidden in here is what is the progression or "tempo", of you will, of messages on SA and the followup text / emails? Obviously this varies but anyone want to take a stab at some general guidelines? Also, how does one first broach the subject.
In closing I will say the worst question I've been faced with is "what's your ideal arrangement?" Do I really just say 1 time a week for $$ in a mid range hotel halfway between me and you, I'll bring the refreshments if you bring the entertainment and drop the mic? Advice here is appreciated.
One step at a time.
Cruzier.
I don't follow your logic
[QUOTE=Tidad;4225691]Why all the mystery? Why not say which sorority?[/QUOTE]LOL Why? Then they will get blown up with messages and be harder for me to bang when I'm in town.
Apparently SBs Can't Do Simple Math
So I'm conversing with a prospect a couple days ago, and she tells me she'll do 3 dates a month for a 400/ mo allowance. I'm accustomed to pay per meet arrangements. I'm not giving 400 in one lump sum. So I told her I'd do 150 per meet, which equals out to be more than she was initially requesting, it just wasn't all at once. She got insulted! I told her to do the math and she said her worth was more than 150 per meet. But she was ok with 133 per meet?
If they can't do simple math, then move on.
Any experience with Hotwire app?
Hello,
Planning on using Hotwire app. Was wondering what information should I provide under My info while setting an account since that will be used to make booking and I'd need to show an I'd when I check in.
Also, what payment info should I enter? Regular CC or vanilla card? I don't have any problems using regular CC, no SO issues etc. And I still need to show a CC while checking in.
Any other pointers while using Hotwire?
Thanks,
You say that as if it's a bad thing.
[QUOTE=Tidad;4230395]Please, you know what she wants: she's looking for a reliable $400 on the 1st of every month with the probability of gifts, meals drinks ect when you come over. That will likely add up to more than $50. Plus, in her mind you are " the friend who helps her". If it's transactional per meet, then the price is the price and in her mind you are "the guy she fucks for $150". She's playing a game that is smart for her lifestyle and her psyche.[/QUOTE]In general, it definitely is a case of the girl (at least subconsciously) understanding her own self-interest. And if you're optimising CPO or have other reasons to not have faith in an allowance arrangement, it's prudent to at least start with PPM. No argument there.
If you happen upon a good find and your instincts (plus some luck) are correct, this can work to mutual advantage. I got a really good, genuine vibe on my two M&G's with my current SB and mitigated my risk by going bi-monthly. In return I've been rewarded with extremely enjoyable, effortless companionship. So much so that while we originally negotiated 3-4 meets / month, she's works very hard at spending extra time with me when we occasionally have scheduling issues, and so it's usually a consistent 4 meets / month. We've been on three trips together, and while on one hand I bore the expense, on the other hand she was more than willing to carve out the extra time.
On our most recent trip, due to some logistics and other snags we ended up basically spending 7 straight days together. On the tail end some bad weather meant it was easiest if I just hung out at her place an extra day, which she accommodated without a second thought. It didn't hurt that I treated her to a *very* nice vacation week, but that worked both ways.
Since our dates are usually overnights and last about 18 hours total, we've had lots of time to for good discussions. She understands that this is a finite relationship, but also sees the financials as a separate thing from the friendship we've developed. Not that I have any illusion that it would have any staying power if the financials were to dry up, but I think in the moment the inter-personal bond is very solid and real.
