Seeking Arrangement

Some people say that love and happiness cannot be bought with money. Others say that any sexual or romantic relationship is basically just a business arrangement. The people behind Seeking.com seem to agree with the latter, or at least they hope you will. At the top of the landing page it says, "Where beautiful and successful people build mutually beneficial relationships." It's a little vague, but the next section discusses the benefits of sugar daddy.

This is not a dating site for the poor. However, this is not a dating site for poor people. Well, even poor people can sign up if they want to look good or at least suck some low dick. Thus, it is assumed that sugar daddies who register on Seeking.com have money in their pockets.

Benefits of sugar daddies.

The benefits of registering on Seeking.com are that you can get a free account with a sugar daddy, and you will also have the opportunity to meet other sugar daddies. However, some people prefer what the site says, so Seeking Arrangement does just that.

First of all, everything stacks up in favor of men. This is due to the cute icon that reads "four sugar crumbs for one sugar daddy." The cute clip-art drawings of scissors cutting threads redefine relationship expectations. There is a glowing heart that looks almost religious, with text offering "a frank and honest agreement with someone who will meet your needs."

Listed below are the benefits of a "sugar baby." Women can "find a mentor," "date experienced men," and "be pampered." All of these are depicted in the form of cartoon signs pointing to the SUCCESS, a kind of graphic on a tuxedo shirt, and a red ribbon package.

The basic expectation of a "sugar daddy" relationship, especially when combined with Web 2.0 graphics, turns into one hell of an ad. One young designer bragged to his parents that he had helped a lot of rich people snap up a lot of money.

Anyone can offer anything, but Seeking lets people know they're legit by putting their name on it all. They've been written about in the New York Times, Forbes, CNN and some other major magazines. What's more, they are not a random operation, as they have been around since 2006.

You'd think a site revolving around attracting rich guys should at least charge rich guys, but Buttons says I can join for free. They must be making a profit somewhere, but I'm curious how far I can get for free. Interesting. You might think you need your own sugar baby.

Sugar daddy, sugar mommy, sugar baby.

Signing up is quick and easy. They will ask you a few questions, including your gender and whether you are a sugar daddy or a sugar baby. So, if you're a guy who wants to be pampered, you can find a sugar mama on Seeking. Some women will fuck me and buy me things. That's right, sign me up.

They also ask if you like men, women or both. I think it's easy to find them on any traditional escort site, but transvestite lovers are out of luck.

Before you get a profile, the last question asks you to sign up with a Facebook account or email address. College girls are beautiful and need financial help and the hard cock of a wealthy gentleman, so you can get a free upgrade just by using your .edu email address.

Most of the information you enter into your profile is typical of dating sites. They want to know when you were born, where you live, how much schooling you have and how much you drink. Don't worry, these parameters are a bit vague. You don't have to admit to drinking a bottle of whiskey every night.

The last question is meant to clarify what you are looking for in a relationship. They differ slightly depending on whether you're going to be a sugar daddy or a sugar baby, but they come down to time commitments, the degree of emotional connection, and whether you're offering a luxurious lifestyle or demanding one.

Finding projects doesn't require a lot of the polite dancing that people trying to get into a relationship do. It's for people who not only know what they want, but can articulate it clearly from the beginning. It seems like it could save a lot of time, but it does require some breaking of social norms, which for those who read ThePornDude is probably not a big deal.

Nevertheless, there is no sense of over-indulgence here. There are clear black-and-white arrangements, but it doesn't feel like an escort site.It's just a dating site for couples of a certain demographic to get close for money and meet in the middle.

Thirsty, looking for a broke bitch.

The real selling point of any dating site is the women on it. The best sales pitch in the world will mean nothing if all you have is four sluts with bad teeth and an hour away to suck your dick.

The default search shows users within 250 miles, but no more than 1,000 miles. That makes sense, since rich motherfuckers are happy to travel for that. There are 306 to choose from by default, which is fine with me.

Many of the women had blank profile pictures, so I filtered them out, leaving a few hundred. I then narrowed the age range down to 18-29, leaving about 100 people. I excluded about 20 people because people who don't drink alcohol often don't have anal sex. Another 30 people were screened out because many of them were with children.

That left 40 women. How about this. It looks like a lot of university students indeed. The filters on the side of the screen show options like background check, premium or diamond account, girls who have seen me before, etc. You can also choose height, education, and hair color, but some options are blocked.

Filters for relationship status, ethnicity, income, and net worth are blocked for premium users only. With premium access, you can't even search for profile texts, which is a shame. On the other hand, if you're the kind of person who wants to be a sugar daddy, you should probably spend a few dollars to get there.

What you can do with a few dollars.

Seeking says a lot about profile verification, but at least half the time it's serious. I wasn't even allowed to see the premium offers page until I filled out a false 800 profile and uploaded a picture of a handsome man. The photos are still verified, apparently by real people, but I'm already free to give them money.

The regular price is about $20, paid monthly; there's also a 90-day option that saves Washington a few times a month. It's like an appetizer to a fancy dinner. If you can't pay that much, you won't date any of the women here; they're looking for a man who can buy them better food than chicken nuggets, a cocaine addict, not a meth addict.

Premium benefits include search filters, getting read messages and better privacy. Upsell mentions being able to work without ads, and apparently my AdBlock solved that problem. The spam counter in the corner of my browser shows 22, but no ads at all.

If you want to get sex on Secret, you should probably become a member. Do you really think sugar babies want penniless losers on a dating site who can't afford a premium membership.

Seeking.com is not a dating site for everyone, and we know that. One of its main attractions is that it is spared a lot of the nonsense you might expect when looking for any kind of relationship. This is reflected everywhere on the site, from the profile questions to the fact that your net worth is displayed next to your height and body type in the search results.

Traffic is the biggest indicator that the site is doing what it claims to do, and Seeking received nearly seven million hits last month. Wealthy men looking for sugar babies can find their rich source here.
