"Sugarbabies" / "Arrangements" Amateurs or Not?

Our negative experiences so that others avoid such time-wasters.

Most of my negatives are no shows for dinners. Last one cost me $6 bucks to park in Shockoe Bottom and put up with 530 pm traffic.

There aren't that many in Richmond on the site. I'm sure we're all messaging the same ones. Let's share info.

Pic seller. Online / text only. https://www.seeking.com/member/d47b6...5-1e69fc9790a7.

Meet and greet only. Takes your cash and then ghosts you: https://www.seeking.com/member/4a4a6...f-c38b58f62005.

Not sure about this one. We were texting a bit and then she just blocked me. Didn't say anything graphic. Just chatting about art and game of thrones. https://www.seeking.com/member/de446...c-89c7595a8860.

Horrible mic skills and can't math. Just an overall poor experience. https://www.seeking.com/member/ab538...5-d28b40617c76.

Has anyone met up with this one? https://www.seeking.com/member/44537...8-e151df05254e.

Seems down for almost everything but haven't been able to meet.

Last fall she texted every day for a week wanting me to come to her place off of Hull st near 295. Every day I would text back that I could not leave my office. I blocked her.

Don't know if this profile has been taken down or I have been blocked.

This is a time waster and a flake.

Could be a SA hired and maintained profile to jerk us off.

I doubt they would fake a 35 yo.

[RegularJoe1985]

Yes you're blocked and yes she's a time waster. I'm assuming she stood you up? That's what she did to me. Kept saying she was on her way and I never saw her.

I think I blocked her and that's why I cannot see her profile and seems that one cannot unblock a profile.

As soon as she made the first excuse, I stopped 15 min into commute, went and had coffee while she texted a slew of excuses. Told her I'l wait for hours and hours in the parking lot and it still didn't dawn on her that I might be playing her as well.

No way I was going to make the commute to see her. I came back and she was still making excuses. I saw another SB and finally blocked her number and her profile. Completely forgot that I'd blocked her profile as well.

Profile still up for me, so I guess you've been blocked.

I always do M&G's but similar philosophy on dinner for several reasons. There's the expense, hate spending 100 on dinner and over an hour with them when I often realize as soon as I sit down I'm not interested, and it's true some of them are torture to talk to so you have to make small talk longer. Many I've met are fun to talk to and interesting, especially when I'm in pursuit, but you never know for sure until you get there. Drinks, coffee, maybe an appetizer at a casual cafe, that's the way to do this. Keep the commitment of both time and money minimal upfront, you can always ramp it up.

Dinner? These girls don't want to sit through dinner unless you're going to pay them to eat. They're either on that site because they need drug money, or they're on the site because they're addicted to FAST MONEY. Give them the choice between dinner and sex or going straight to the FC and they will pick going straight to the FC every time.

The monger Sandpiper540 mentions a 1 week membership to SA.

A while back before SA was removed from the iTunes store, I was able to buy an iTunes card, sign up with a fake iTunes account and bought a 1 week membership for $27. If I remember right, I was able to log in with the membership to my regular SA account using the trial membership. ITunes was just the conduit to get the trial. Unfortunately, this cannot be done as the app is gone. Not sure if the same thing would work with a googleplay account.

I have been a member off and on for years, always paying full price except for once when they offered a Halloween discount if I remember correctly. I have read on occasion about a weekly rate offered by SA. I have never seen this on the site or on the app. When I downloaded the app last week, the current monthly rate of $89 was the only option other than the 3 month option. So is there a weekly rate option and if so, where do I find it? Thanks.

So just a quick update on the sugar plum. I washed my hands with her as many advised me to and let her be / gave her her space. No food, no baked cakes, cookies you name it. No money advanced nada. She resurfaced, has a new number and is inviting me to the same show that ended with her spending the night at my place roughly 2 months ago.

Seeking Arrangements.

Just wanted to let everyone know that seeking Arrangements does have a 24.99 7-Day trial. I have had a lot of success on seeking Arrangements in the past. But the girls do ask for a lot more than Backpage and other similar sites. One of the negative things I've noticed about seeking Arrangements is that there are a lot of fake profiles, but some of these girls will text you back and forth endlessly. They promise to make a date but never do. However they will keep in touch with you through text. I almost want to believe that these are paid employees of seeking Arrangements. People that are paid to keep the customers (the guys) entertained. If you're not into sharing a real girl, please share the fakes so we can avoid.

Read everything you can, experiment, and refine your approach. Use and change your Google Voice or other burner number. Never use the same profile pic twice. And move the conversation off the site as soon as possible. All good rules to live by.

OK, OK, I am not about to die, as far as I know, but I am about to kill off my avatar, I mean my profile, on SA. I have been on SA for eight months and have messaged and texted with lots of girls and feel I can refine my approach. Rather than just editing my profile, I intend to let it go inactive when the next renewal comes up, then register a new profile with some differences. Among other things, I plan to put some type of photo in my profile because I think a lot of girls wouldn't consider me without any photos up. This way I will get another crack at some of the hotties who have blocked me or ignored me under my present profile.

I expect I am not the first monger to do this. I am wondering if you guys have any tips or things you wish you had done differently when creating a new profile. I intend to make a list of some of the "ones that got away" so I can look for them under my new profile. Anything else I should be doing?

Always have other irons in the fire, it helps you make good decisions. Women have this intuition where they can literally FEEL the number of other options you have, and it will impact your outcome. If they act up, they cannot be immediately rewarded for resurfacing. Go in with the attitude "you wasted my time before, so why should I talk to you now". But don't say that directly, convey it while being smoother with tactics words. Good things will occur every time.
