I use "sugar daddy" dating websites, because it's the only way I can date. Typically I pay a girl between $400-600 for a date, and after we've been seeing each other for a while, $2000/mo. This doesn't include gifts, trips, restaurants, etc. There has to be some level of mutual attraction for it to work.

For safety, I would recommend having a "meet and greet" date with any potential sugar daddies where you just get to know each other over dinner or coffee. If he doesn't pay for dinner/coffee then he is a loser and you should find someone else.

Always get your money before anything happens, and if a guy is stingy or flakey then don't date him. If you go to a hotel or a guys house to have sex, make sure you get your money before anything happens, and drop a pin on google maps or whatever and send it to a friend or family member so they know where you are in case he is an axe murderer.

Also be aware of the obvious scams like giving people your bank account information, (don't do that) etc.
