Sugardating ​​

On this website I talk about my experience with several different dating cultures and would like to ad a few thoughts about sugardating. Sugardating is a relationship dynamic where one partner offers financial support while the other takes responsibility in other areas. Though often compared to prostitution, for me, the appeal of sugardating has never been sexual. Instead, I value meeting partners who are not seeking a conventional relationship with children, a house, and a white picket fence. A typical sugar baby is looking for an experienced, well-established man who has his life together, enjoys meaningful conversations, and has an exciting lifestyle. Ironically, my most expensive 'sugar babies' were my ex-wives — except they didn’t see themselves that way and took my financial support for granted. Most of my conventional relationships led to dependency, financial taboos, and drama, ultimately damaging the relationships.

​

Room for Love?
At first glance, sugardating may seem like a rational dating culture, leaving little space for love or deep emotional connections. However, in my experience, the opposite is true. When both partners have a clear agreement on what they bring to the relationship, there are fewer taboos. Fewer taboos lead to fewer misunderstandings, which means less drama. Less drama creates more time to enjoy each other’s company, making room for love, adventure, and romance.
