I think I have found a unicorn in my Latina single mom that I met on SA and with whom I had my second private encounter this week. We spent 3 hours together--a one-hour lunch at a restaurant and then 2 hours of conversation and intimate time at my place. As we agreed in our initial get-to-know-you meeting I paid her the equivalent of what a good professional escort would charge for just one hour of time.
So I'm a believer in SA. But it's a different experience from hiring an escort and you have to accept the negative aspects of seeking companionship on SA in order to benefit from the positive aspects. First it takes time and careful research to find the right woman. It's not like hiring an escort in Montreal where you can check a few agency sites to see who's available, check out some reviews and make an appointment for later the same day or even right away. From start to finish the process can take only minutes or at most hours.
Meeting the right woman on SA can take weeks or even months and you need to invest time, effort and money. First there is the cost of an SA membership, which is $80 if you buy a membership one month at a time. You need to put together a good profile and be willing to share some information about yourself including photos (though those can be kept private until you reveal them to only those women you want).
Then you have to spend time reviewing profiles, photos and messages and writing messages of your own. If you click with a woman online, then you need to be willing to meet her in person for a get-to-know you session at a neutral location like a Starbucks or a Panera. The process is more like meeting women on a dating site than it is like choosing a professional escort from a website. Also, there are no reviews on the web of the women you'll meet on SA. You will have to use your own judgment in evaluating them online and in person.
Not all the women on SA are sincere and serious (duh!) about meeting guys. You need to develop a set of criteria that you are looking for, target those women who fit your criteria and ignore everyone else. For me, I found that the single moms in the age range of 25-45 and who lived within 30 miles of me seemed to be the best candidates. I seem to be a good fit for them too, because I'm single, live alone in a private, discreet location and I can work around their schedules. In general, because of their kids, single moms do not want to host an encounter where they live and they prefer to meet during the day on weekdays.
When you meet a woman for the first time, you need to be prepared to reveal personal information about yourself such as your real name and contact info and where you work and what you do. The women on SA have no access to the kind of security arrangements that pro escorts use and so you need to win their trust by being open and honest. At the same time, you can't expect them to reveal exactly the same info about themselves. They will volunteer some information about themselves but you shouldn't ask them too many personal questions.
Discussing a business deal is delicate. Other than the "lifestyle" expectations that are listed in the profiles (that range from "negotiable" to thousands of $ per month) there are no set rates listed for each woman. Of course, most of the women are hoping for a monthly "allowance," but my experience is that plenty of women are perfectly willing to work on a transactional basis. Many need money and they can't afford to hold out forever for a longtime contract deal. It's best not to bring up money early in the discussion. You should focus on winning the woman's trust and trying to make her like you enough that she would be willing to spend time with you. It's somewhat unusual for an escort to reject a client, but an SA woman is more likely to reject you if she doesn't like something about you. You need to win her over at the first meeting.
If you do click and you come to a tentative agreement about financial terms, then you need to let the woman think things over for a few days. Don't try to make an appointment right away. Stay in touch on the SA site or by text (if she is willing to exchange numbers) and then be patient. If she likes you, she will be in touch with you.
If I were to characterize the women that I have met on SA, I guess I would call them "amateur escorts." I don't mean the word "amateur" in a bad way. As I suggested in quoting Napoleon below, an amateur can be better than a professional.
So is SA worth it? For me, I would have to say yes, it has been worth it and a fun experience. But given the pros and cons of meeting women on SA, it's not for everyone and it's not necessarily a substitute for meeting professional escorts. As always, YMMV.
