The black Sea is a war zone.Apparently Russian citizens can still travel there. Turkey is the friendliest of the NATO countries toward Russia, even a year into the invasion. I don't think Turkey has gone along with most sanctions and I know that it hasn't cancelled flights.
Why? Just curious.
Yes. However I would also like to point out I was talking about many years ago when I used actual online dating sites to find a partner. No money was involved. Other than splitting date expenses.
Yes, but unfortunately for all of us involved, 85% of the world live within patriarchal societies.Is there a culture somewhere in the world where the women love being the providers and giving the expensive gifts to the men? Asking for a friend.
Agreed. Members and models meeting is an absolutely mental proposition. Not something I would ever do or encourage anyone to do. In fact, I had to put that notion into the head of another member just the other day.
Maybe. But despite all the talk about meetings, there was always some reason from her about why it couldn't happen yet. First it was the war but then, when we discussed places where Russian citizens could still travel, other excuses would arise. ("I can't go anywhere now because my cat has all these medical problems" and then "I can't go anywhere yet because my mom has some medical problems" and so on).
A little more than a romantic bow. There was six months of near love-bombing, lots of romantic messages and attempts to strongly sell it as being much more than about money or a ticket out. She was actually very insistent about the romantic element.
I would have really admired the honesty but the whole thing would have ended a lot sooner.
This is the one thing all agree on.
No. I definitely gave her money, thousands over time, but it was through a combination of long chats in private plus a lot of one-off "gifts" offline. But where she began heading in the last few months was the notion that I would basically start providing a substantial, fixed amount of money each month, offsite...so she could rely on it. Her argument was, as mentioned, that I was (allegedly) her man and "my man has a responsibility that includes financial support, as well as emotional."
One of a number of walking ATMs. I wouldn't be surprised if you weren't the only one George.Another great image.
Obviously I'm learning a lot here and I knew nothing about this industry previously. There seems to be some percentage of models and members (I have no idea if it's a small minority or maybe it's a sizeable proportion) who think that meeting up with dates and even potential life partners on the sites is perfectly fine. Do the sites have any position about this one way or another, or do they not care so long as they keep making money? And is there any particular reason why the sites (or models in general) would be opposed to this?
She's already partially blocked and we haven't communicated since last update. She could still contact me though a site or two, though, now that I think about it.
I'm actually on this forum a lot more lately than I've been on any cam sites.
It's been a gradual process.
You'll learn a lot from this forum.
It's been a gradual process.
Well that's a good thing! ACF is healthy for ya.

Blocking is really binary, how can you partially block someone? It really feels like you're deliberately dragging this process out (and the thread with it) for some reason.
SC certainly forbids real life meet-ups and off-site payments. (There is NO grey area from them in this)
...well that depends on what threads he is reading. There are some pretty f****d up stuff to read and mindblowing lol., but I guess all in all, yes it is better
Then don't. If that's the last thing holding you back from cutting her off completely then forget about reporting her to the sites.
Another great image.
So do some studios. I once tried to give a model my Telegram username. (She was leaving the next day for a month to undergo surgery. I just wanted her to let me know how things went) The result was catastrophic. Her studio almost fined her, and I was almost banned. She basically begged her admins not to carry through and promised them she would never call me. That was just a member offering personal info to a model. Interestingly, all her admins are female, and at this particular studio, they are strict, but actually look after the model's safety. I am sure being in Russia has something to do with that too.
I really can’t answer your questions about that. I am of the same opinion I have always been of, That cam sites should never be used for dating sites.
I should have clarified: She's blocked on the ways we normally communicated. Where she isn't blocked is on a couple of sites where we did have a little interaction in the past (but where I haven't been in a long while). So theoretically, she could send a DM there or something.
There is also considerable risk to the model in both meeting up, and providing account details (real name, address, phone number etc) for off-site payments.
