Haha! I take your point badboy... I am fit, healthy, active, handsome, 42, and lived in other parts of Brazil about a decade ago for about 18 months, and I speak Portuguese quite well... I also know that having lived there I formed strong kinships as friends with guys non-sexually that I still speak to today, and yet in other respects I also know the culture well enough to know that you can be seen as a $$$ sign, a walking ATM and a gringo, too.
For this reason, I will also be using scruff, jack’d and tinder for just non-paying encounters too.
I am realistic, pragmatic and certainly open to having fun but I guess there is a part of me that is looking for something a little more longer lasting. Don’t get me wrong, I know of guys here in Australia who have dated and are in longer term relationships with dude who they met when they hired them originally as hookers, so anything is possible however improbable!
it’s good getting some grounded perspectives... thank you
