Gentle Reader,
- Possibly you've heard of > ..:: GayRomeo ::.. < web-site?
- My Mature, Urbane & English Aquaintance has started making use of it to meet others;
- He recounted that at first he did not post his photograph and received but few replies - none of which appealed to him;
- But after posting his photo. MORE replies were received, many from mid-thirties & Thai men, several of whom advertised themselves as being 'XL.';
- He has invited several of those who appealed to him to join him in his appartment. He mentioned that all are indeed 'XL.' and that all performed so manfully that he was left quite exhausted! I might add, according to reports received from other visitors, that not only is he well-endowed but is indeed a very experienced Bottom.

-- E&OE. as reported speech. --

Not very useful information without the ID of the "performer".

Was it a commercial encounter?

I've been using it since many years, both when I still lived in Europe and now, here in Thailand. That's one of the reasons why I've never found it appealing to lurk in filthy public toilets, waiting for some chance encounter to happen.

Regarding Khun Icon's remark, from my experience you can also find a huge number of non-commercial, guy-next-door Thais on GayRomeo. Just ordinary guys with regular jobs (pharmacists, bank tellers, food vendors, etc. etc.).

Over all, a great place to get to know fellow Bangkokians, both for sex and for making friends.

Agreed, but the availability of non-commercial dates from Romeo goes down with one's age. As sextile described his friend as "mature", I was wondering if the hook-up was for "fun" or for "pay".

of course when age goes up u cannot expect these hard bodies to fall for u without any rewards unless they are daddy seekers or have some other weird desire or drug habit.

Agree Gayromeo is a great site across Asia inc PRC. In Thailand there are a lots of money boys, but (and I'm no spring chicken) I had a great romp with a cute 21 y.o. in BKK recently - no charge.
In Malaysia, Sing, VN and PRC my profile attracts lots of attention from twinks who genuinley like mature and I never pay in those countries (but admit to "gifting" thai boys.) I guess I'm in reasonable shape for my age, but am no "muscle mary" 174 cm 78kg

-- I have not asked directly, but gather that it's a 'Pay for fun.' agreement.

-- On a personal basis I'm a bit wary of such sites having heard that -
1.- It's not unknown for posters to submit photos. taken several years earlier;
2.- There are those who describe their endowments as 'XL.' when, in fact, they might be anything but:

Sure, that does happen, but regarding the photos in particular, most of these younger guys now have smartphones and post new photos to their Facebook galleries on an almost daily basis. Nevertheless, there's the issue that some people just look much different in real vs. on photos.

I don't see that as a big problem though, I usually meet them for a coffee or to watch a movie and then we see if and how things progress. In a city like Bangkok, I'm really not under any pressure to jump on each and every opportunity that arises.

Regarding the dick size, I personally couldn't care less, but for people who're size queens, sure, that's an issue. I'd guess that many guys simply don't know how to "rate" their size properly.

Luckily, there's also naked nights in saunas, not only GayRomeo, at your disposal.

I find most pics are up to date - and seldom exagerate size. I met a 20 y.o. in Singapore recently who described as "L". He turned out to be a generous "XL" who was too modest. Great fun - no pay - and I have his number for next time

I'd bet that's true! I'm usually looking for guys who're about my age (that's 36 and counting). Most of those who I end up meeting in person are in fact somewhat younger, but not that much (25 up typically).

The longer I stay here, the more the youngsters annoy me, especially the pro-forma students. They're just too obsessed with the Twilight Saga, booze and their hair.
