Random hotel hookups

Publish date: 2024-05-04

This summer I will start traveling again for work, not by choice. I want to revisit the old days of Craigslist where I'd easily find the stray married man or "no-strings-attached" hookup. Outside Grindr, how the hell does that happen without Craigslist? Doublelist sucks. I just want a married and/or secretive guy to come to my hotel, let me suck him off, then leave. I just looked up adam4adam, and that looks like crap.

Help me DL, where do the "down-low" guys go now?

OP, aim higher in life, man

If you want a down-low guy, just go to your nearest local BLM protest or CHAZ/CHOP zone. Plenty of deeply closeted black men there, channeling their sublimated sexuality into socially acceptable behaviors.

Nothing has been the same since Craigslist folded / then covid .....

When Craigslist folded, things dispersed. Some guys you never see again because they're too afraid to download Grindr or the idea is not there. The grid base/chat system is just too ADHD-ish. Illusion of choice and the "next best thing" got many stalling and playing games. It's not as good as placing an ad and having them come in less than 5 emails. Then COVID hit and made things worse. In my city lots of guys can't host because they have partners and family and wives. It's more difficult for them to go out with a valid excuse since everything is centered around home. Fewer chances to sneak around because partner/families are practically with them 24/7. Plus unless you're a careless whore (not many guys want to risk the chance of STI/HIV/ now COVID-19 and bring it back to families).

Even with vaccine and governments opening up slowly, socially it still feels like the Pandemic will last awhile. So things will be completely dead. Doublelist in my area got worse, not as many postings. It was already bad enough because of low traffic to the site from my area, the same 10 people post 4-5 times a day on top of each other. Now it's a joke.

It was way better 10 years ago.

why hasn't Doublelist worked out?

Doesn't have the same amount of people on it. Craigslist had a massive audience because it was a multi-purpose site. Doublelist only exists as a Craigslist refuge thus anyone on there have most likely used Craigslist in the past consistently. So no more newbies. And even the amount of people on there is different because the same people post every day. There is no variety in the ads posted because all the same people just copy/paste or re-post the ad they made a day or hour before.

I had some cool meetups on Craigslist. Sad that era has ended. Dating apps just are not the same, but it's the only way OP can get what they want.

Hotel hookups were one of the best things about living in Hell's Kitchen. Just blocks away from all of the hotels in Times Square, so used to get lots of action with hot men visiting the city.

It’s is the conundrum of the past decade. What happened to all the CL players? Agree with the above analysis that Doublelist never took off because it’s a sole purpose site - and relied on former CL users who are aging out. Grindr sucks - for both gay and bi men. Bathhouses were supposedly coming back a little - but Covid killed that. Like gay bars, I fear the whole scene is just dying from attrition.

I hate how if you want to hookup now you seemingly got be open to being blasted across the internet on someone’s OnlyFans or something.

Adult bookstores can still be fun, but most are filled with old men on canes.

How has nobody created a decent CL replacement yet?! It’s been like five years.

Just sit at the hotel bar and strike up a conversation. It worked for me. You won't get lucky all the time, but you'll usually have some good conversations.

CRAIGSLIST is still active. Look under missed connections. Actually, most down low guys are on there. When I was looking, that is where I went. Actually, right before I saw posting, I went to CL to see if it was still the same....it is. So, if you are horny, you can still find a guy there. I have lots under missed connections.
