Guest 2guys Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Read some topics here, plenty of tips on it. ;-) Quote
firecat69 Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Starts at 1500 and goes up to 2000. There are always exception but that is a good general rule and up to you to add a 100 or 200 extra at the lower end. DivineMadman 1 Quote
Guest blueshrimp Posted September 2, 2016 Posted September 2, 2016 Thanks, firecat. Just what I needed. Quote
vinapu Posted September 3, 2016 Posted September 3, 2016 Some in-demand boys from BoyzBoyzBoyz may ask for more so be prepared , bargain hard or just cross the soi to the competition. Talk directly to the boy there ,not to a mamasan. Otherwise firecat is correct Quote
Guest Posted September 3, 2016 Posted September 3, 2016 All of the previous advice is good. If arranging a date on Gay Romeo, always say 1500 long time, then if it goes well, give him 2~300 baht more. I've never paid more than 1800 long time. Most of my long time offs are from bars & the subject of money is rarely discussed in advance. All those who do a long time off have been after a repeat off, so it suggests this is enough. Where you might get a problem is boys agreeing to do long time, but trying to convert it to short time, so they can go out later. I wish they would be straight up front about it. Generally I go with the flow & take what happens, but if I want to make sure they do long time, I tell them we're agreeing long time and if he leaves early, there will be a very small tip. When I've done that, I've never had to pay the small tip. In practice, most of my long timers are repeat offs. Quote
Guest blueshrimp Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 I'm not a fan of Planet Romeo. I like twinks, and the photos are so often years out of date so the guys look much older in reality! Quote

When I've done that, I've never had to pay the small tip. I do the same but had few cases when boys left earlier forfeiting much bigger tip / in one case of XSize boy 1000 instead of 3000 / and I doubt it was because they found me boring, rather they wanted to secure a deal promising what I wanted without any intention of staying till morning and then fabricating excuses to leave like motorbike parked in wrong spot. I understand this and forgive them but will not off them again Quote

Guest 2guys Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 Been reading that on should ask recent pics by saying hold 2 fingers up with left hand or something specific so you know they just took the pic. Also many say to chat using line and do live video chat. With today's technology one should be able to know what will be showing up it seems.

Brummbaer Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 and the photos are so often years out of date so the guys look much older in reality! I'm guilty of that as well. I've been on Romeo so long, that my profile number only has 5 digits - now they are up 8 I believe. When I created the profile some 13 or 15 years ago I uploaded pictures that were 5 years old at the time - not because I wanted to cheat, the stats on my profile are correct age/size-wize, but because I didn't have many more digital pictures at the time. I think one of those now almost 20 year old pictures is still up in one of the folders. I don't think I've uploaded any new pictures for a couple of years and the newest, main profile pic, is from 2011 or 12. But then at 50 your face doesn't change much any more. vinapu and ChristianPFC 2 Quote
Londoner Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 My recent concern with Romeo has been the use of enhancing software that can make some of the photos extremely misleading. ChristianPFC 1 Quote
firecat69 Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 There is no fool proof method . First I look for number of visits which lets me know if the profile is new. Not a guarantee because some boys constantly change profile but they are usually boys that have been at it for some time and I recognize them and know the photos are old. I also find many times the photos posted look age different thus you can be guaranteed to just look at the older ones. I find the enhancing ability less bothersome. Does anyone think that 90 % of the boys in the photo thread that we all drool over have not been enhanced. Of course they have . Since I find it impossible many times to tell if a boy is 18 or 28 ( harder as I get older) I'm not really hung up on whether he looks exactly like the pics age wise,but in most cases he is far better looking then any boy I can have in my home country. I am also amazed how many boys post stupid faces etc as photos and how much better looking they are in person. My last 60 day trip I turned 1 boy away from my door because of not being boy in photo and I shutter to think how low that % is. HeHe But of course I have had a lot of practice and if suspicious I will ask to talk on line etc with camera. Actually I have been pleasantly surprised more then disappointed . But then personality of boy cannot be shown in photos or even in Bars at times. llz 1 Quote

Guest FASAJIP Posted September 4, 2016 Posted September 4, 2016 1500 is good tip for full night. I just add meal in a little asian restaurant close to boys town. Sometimes 2000 for very lovely and tender boy... often for several nights. Quote
Brummbaer Posted September 6, 2016 Posted September 6, 2016 then imagine horror of boy expecting to see sprightly 40 something and who opens door? same same faced but twice the girth with half hair another boy misleading farang , LOL I did say my age and stats on the profile are correct, height/weight have not changed much (+ 2 kg) and I'm lucky in a way, that unlike my father my hair turns gray instead of falling out. If you look at my passport picture from 2005 and my passport picture from 2015, there is not much difference. Just a little more gray and different glasses. Quote

Alexx Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 It might also be a boon that a passport picture doesn't extend to the waistline. Brummbaer 1 Quote
gerefan Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 That is standard procedure with hair. You either loose it or it turns grey. End of... No alternative....! Quote
Guest Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 That is standard procedure with hair. You either loose it or it turns grey. End of... No alternative....! Anyone with grey hair can have whatever colour they like with some hair dye and 5 minutes patience. Quote
Guest abang1961 Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 I'm a 55 Asian and not supposed to have much black hair now. I do dye the top part but left the sides white.... Guess what? I look like a panda. See for your self .. photo taken yesterday without photo shop.. Quote
captainmick Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 That is standard procedure with hair. You either loose it or it turns grey. End of... No alternative....! Oh yes there is an alternative - it can go white instead of grey! Quote
Brummbaer Posted September 10, 2016 Posted September 10, 2016 Doesn't look like Panda to me. Lucky asian genes. Makes you look much younger. Quote
