Looking for a sugar daddy

When I decided that I was interested in seeing what the whole sugar daddy thing was like I realised I was pretty nervous. I had dated a couple of older guys but never done anything like this. I read some articles online and looked at different websites. Eventually I decided to sign up for one of the biggest sugar daddy dating sites. I still didn't know what to expect or if anything would happen but I was interested to find out more. I paid my monthly fee and created a profile, waiting nervously to see if anyone would contact me.

I found out that when you're a 25 year old woman looking for a sugar daddy there is a lot of interest from guys! Quite a few women on sugar dating sites were older than me, and as Richard explained to me later I was probably seen as 'fresh meat' by most of the men. I got a lot of messages from guys. And I mean A LOT!

Some guys offered me money up front. 'I can give you a monthly allowance of £2000' or something similar. I've always understood the reality of sugar dating, but this isn't what I want personally. I'm not knocking other people's choices but being paid to date a guy would make me feel like a prostitute. I was always open about wanting a guy who would treat me and spoil me but I don't expect (or want) a regular financial payment like that.

Other guys were very predatory. Some asked me to go over and meet them at their house or apartment. They seemed surprised when I was reluctant. Meeting a stranger online and going over to their place really isn't my style - I don't go for the axe murderer type! Some men were also very explicit in their messages. I'm not a prude and I like sex as much as anyone else. But one guy's second email included the question 'do you take it up the arse?' What a way to make a girl feel special.

After a couple of weeks I was losing hope. And then Richard sent me a message. It was kind and polite, and he seemed to want the same things as me. He has a high powered job and lives in London but travels abroad a lot. He wanted a companion when he was in London but not the pressure of a full relationship. He wanted to go out on dates and spoil me. He seemed pretty perfect. And the photos on his profile showed a handsome, well dressed guy. I fancied him straight away which helped. We sent a few messages and emails, and ended up talking on the phone. At the end of our second phone call he asked if he could take me out for a drink. I said yes so quickly that I was worried I would scare him off. So we agreed to meet up a couple of days later. I was going to meet my possible sugar daddy. It was scary and exciting! Eeek!

Hello, and a little about me

Hello! And thank you for reading my blog.

My name is Emily. I am 25 and I live in London. I have been in a relationship with a sugar daddy in his early 50s for just over 6 months. I have started this blog to share my experiences and hope that it's interesting, and maybe useful for people thinking of starting a similar relationship.

In case you don't know, a sugar daddy is a man who dates a woman and looks after her financially. The woman (in this case me) is known as a 'sugar baby' (although I don't really like the term). Most relationships involve older guys with younger women, but this is not always the case. The arrangement between the couple really varies, from men paying a regular allowance to those buying gifts.

I discovered the idea of a sugar daddy totally by accident, reading a magazine article over lunch at work one day. The idea initially seemed a bit creepy. I thought of much older men basically paying girls for sex. But then I started to think about it a bit more.

There are two things that I normally go for in a guy. The first is an older man. I don't really know why but I've always preferred much older guys. When my school friends were into boys in boybands, I was salivating over George Clooney and Mr Big from Sex and the City. The second thing (and it's probably connected) is power and confidence. I am always attracted to guys in positions of power. And one way of having power is being successful and rich. I suppose that I like the traditional idea of a man being in charge in a relationship (although that doesn't mean I don't think women should be well treated and have equality!). I've also found that I like to be a bit submissive to a man (not in a whips and chains sort of way!). And like all girls, I like to be taken out and treated. So when I thought about it, I realised that I found the idea of a sugar daddy very attractive. Not because I was a gold digger (I have a reasonably paid job), but because this type of relationship fitted what I go for in a man.

I will explain what happened in more detail in a future post. But basically a month later I had joined a sugar daddy dating site, and after lots of offers from men (a lot of which were pretty creepy!) I was going out for a drink with Richard. Richard turned out to be handsome, charming and perfect for me. And here we are, still together. When he's in London (and not away on business) we go to restaurants, bars and shows. He treats me like a princess and buys me gifts. And I do my very best to keep him happy.

I am going explain all of this in more detail in future, and share some of my experiences. But I hope that this gives a bit of insight into how I ended up in a sugar daddy relationship.

Thanks again for taking the time to read this. Please let me any comments or questions you have,
