Oldie, but a Goodie

I'm not using Craigslist this time around. I didn't have any luck there before, so I decided to leave it out of the mix of sites I'm using this time.

My main problem with Craigslist is that you only get the information the SD wants to provide. Often it is only a line or two saying what they want in their SB, and very little or nothing about themselves.

Obviously, this is the internet so anything anyone posts can be false, but even lies tell me something about a potential! Plus, I like to know things like age and height. I do need a certain level of attraction before I seriously consider someone. If you are far out of my age range, then why waste your time and mine?

This time around I'm back with the first site I ever logged into, as well as a new one. The new one I had never even noticed before (and I've checked out a lot of SD sites!). I'm not too optimistic about my chances of finding anyone on that site, but it doesn't hurt. On the old site I immediately had 5 or 6 guys who I've vetted before contact me. I very politely told them that I still wasn't interested, but it was sweet that they messaged me.

Giving Craigslist a Shot

I mentioned earlier that I responded to a couple of craigslist postings, and was interested in one or two of the men. Well, one pulled a 'my ex and I got back together' just six hours before our first meeting was scheduled. The other could only meet during the day, so it took me a bit longer to set up a time to meet him.

Boy, am I glad we had that extra week to talk over email before I wasted my time on him!

Normally I am not big on talking about money or sex before we meet, but he asked so I told him what my allowance was with my previous SD. His email in response was hilarious!

'Wow. That's a whole other league.'

He then tells me that with his previous SB he gave her less than half what I asked for, and met up twice a week! It boils down to less that $200 each meeting!!

I quickly responded that I didn't think we were suitable, not because of the money but because my schedule does not allow me to meet up more than 3 or 4 times a month. And, of course, I wished him the best of luck.

Sometimes I am just amazed with how much men want for so little. I suppose he saw an SB as a sort of bulk-buy escort. Give her an allowance and maybe, just maybe, she won't notice that it's a total ripoff. Too bad for him I'm not lying when I say I'm a college student, and I can quickly figure out if he's worth it or not.

Oh, and I wasn't lying about not being able to meet twice a week. I would have had to turn him down even if the money would have been adequate.

Craigslist vs The Sites

I've been on two different sites for meeting SDs the couple of years I've been doing this. There are some great advantages to the sites, mainly that the men have to fill out profiles with their ages, location, and what they want. Some even list what amount of allowance they are willing to give. Sure, lots and lots of them lie, but at least you can get a general idea.

One of the sites I am on is a bit more classy, I suppose. I get fewer emails from it, but they are more likely to be quality. My one long-term SD I found through this site. The other site has a lot of guys who are just getting their rocks off by chatting, and looking for call girls, but I have met with a couple of nice potentials from there as well. Plus, it's a nice ego boost every morning to wake up to ten emails from guys who want to fuck me. No, I'm not interested, but it's an ego boost just like the Mexican guy at the corner shop who always asks if I have a boyfriend.

I just recently took a look at craigslist for the first time, and the idea of it all scares me a bit more than the sites do. I don't like that most of the men give very little information about themselves. I guess I'm just used to the profiles with ages and heights.

There's also something about having to email them. Sure, I could just put my own posting up, but so far I've been the one going after them. It's not my usual style, and not really how I like to start things off. I want them to want me, to come after me, otherwise the whole thing just seems off balance!

I emailed two men from craigslist the other day, and one of them actually seems like someone I might end up meeting. But that was mainly because he treated his post like a profile and filled in all the info I could want on him. Well, and he's also quite charming and mentioned taking me to a restaurant that I've been dying to try! In such a big city it just seems funny that he thought of that one restaurant too.

Perhaps I'll have to change my mind about craigslist and put it into my regular mix of sites to check. We shall see!
