Only once did I do a monthly stipend and I didn't like it but not because she took advantage of it; I just didn't personally like handing over the power in one shot. I did pay the rent for a couple girls but only if they had roommates and it was $500 or so. I NEVER had a problem feeling like I was getting too little in the bargain. In fact, more often than not they would bitch about not seeing me enough for hook-ups, unrelated to money. I think they were afraid I was getting bored or screwing another girl, which I was.

I also strongly agree with JM about the beautiful princesses and the quality of the bedtime stories and really liking the ones that were just there for no drama sex with a reward. There are real 'whores' as such on those sites and I do not mean it in a professional, redbook sort of way. What I mean is lazy, whiny, gypsy princesses who are always working an angle. I shined them on. If one of my gf's from the site began to bug me too much about her 'needs' (oh, my car needs this, my dog needs that- in a manipulative way), I'd just ignore her for awhile and teach her that begging would not get her what she wanted.

The negatives about the site in terms of a 'relationship' was the usual in terms of relationships: Am I the only one? I attempted to avoid that question by letting them know upfront that they could do whatever they wanted when they were not with me- in other words, don't ask me either'. When or if they asked or hinted, I reinforced the message that 'Honey, I told you that you could do whatever you wanted when you were not with me and I just want our time together to be our special time'. Which is pretty much true and more importantly, I wasn't interested in having a 'serious talk' with these girls about who I was screwing. If I wanted to have 'serious talks' I'd have a regular girlfriend.

But the flip side of that tension was that they worked their ass off in bed to keep me happy and were willing to explore things with me. They really did want to be 'special' to me and they were; everyone one o fthem held a place in my heart. Just a limited place depsite their desre to expand their territory.

In conclusion, I think it's a good place for relatively strong males to hang out if you have the time, money and can hold your emotional boundaries. The cinderella fantasy is strong with many of the girls and I always was upfront in stating that this was not about love, I am very busy and let's make sure our time together is positive and fun.
