I spotted a friend on there. She knew nothing about it.They're ripping people off.
Cuddle Companions is a very suspect website to begin with. It encourages "dates" and such. I had considered joining until I saw it was infested with the "selfie crowd", and way too many suggestive or slightly suggestive photos.
Yeah, it's promoting prostitution. Thanks Catloaf.
Ummm. Several women on this site in the Philadelphia area are also on Cuddle Companions.
It is not a scam. I actually think it is better than this site.
I'm confused--how does Cuddle Companions promote prostitution?
Oh I see this discussion is to promote the other site, well played ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!!
What was the name of that site again, please?
@Mark any comments on this?
I wouldn't go that far as to say they're promoting prostitution @Christian96825. But I would definitely glean that they aren't doing enough to separate themselves from the dating-centric, romantic, or even sexual cuddling sites that are already around. These types of websites attract hobbyists and sugar daddies who conflate the word "date" with paid sex.
Perhaps @hockeyfan. Maybe it's tame in their area, though. There are also women here who maintain a CuddleUp profile, and unfortunately, CuddleUp is guilty of the same advertising tactics that Cuddle Companions uses. I left the site because the other people who were joining were almost teaching clients that this service can be sexual, romantic etc. I wouldn't be surprised if the same stuff is going on over there.
I joined it a few weeks ago, and IMO I prefer Cuddle Comfort SO much more, like a mil more. They don't really give you an option to say no to clients before they book other wise they will ban you (my basic understanding thus far) I haven't run into a situation like that on there yet fortunately. The vetting process is harder, but apparently they take the clients IDs while signing up which is a positive I suppose. I do agree wlthat theres sexualizing of the site. Some of the site artwork is... misleading... 'gentleman' in suits and small girls in pjs... meh Also... their fees are ridiculous. Sorry to CC if I said anything down about your fees in the past ? we'll blame it on the noob syndrome. Not high enough marks to probably stick around too long honestly.
I’ve used Cuddle Companions a few times. We just cuddled or we ate at a restaurant.
Yeah, I pimp on Cuddle Companions.
@FunCartel Did you get a free complementary cane or gold chain? I'm sussing out my options here.
They are not promoting prostitution. Wtf are you talking about !? Probably your friend who is on there is lying to you.
You will find me strutting in my stack shoes with goldfish aquariums as heels.
Movie buffs—what movie am I referencing above?
I dunno but I'm just trying to get these shoes back to my house so I can wear them.
Many of the pros in LA on CC are also on cuddle companions
@Catloaf Here is Fly Guy getting out of jail after being incarcerated for a few years wearing the clothes he went to jail in. BEHOLD THE SHOES!
I actually started on Companions, but personally I prefer here more. Companions is nothing more than a place to connect cuddlers (theoretically actual cuddlers, not escorts) with those looking for the cuddles, and there is no real concern for safety or community like there is here. It reminds me of the wild west, every man and woman for themselves. They also take a MUCH larger cut of what you make. I think people generally see Comfort as a legitimate cuddling website where Companions can almost swing either way between cuddling and illegal activities. It's much more of a gamble, but that being said, I have definitely come across some incredible clients from that website. I wouldn't say it's fake as much as it is just entirely too lenient.
Maybe I need @FunCartel to be my pimp HA!! ?
@inparadise Mo money, mo money!
.....
And all the women here are using the word "clients" to describe the men they meet on these sites. So neither one of these sites is really for people meeting for mutual comfort without the exchange of money, it seems, and the complaints about the "Companions" site is that it is not as organized for men to pay women money for affection, and has too many people seeking affection for free. Our world is in a sad state.
I’ve checked out a few other sites and CC is by far the best for screening out suspected unsavory folks i think. The motives on the other site seem far more toward prostitution in my opinion, just from appearances. But i do like the idea of an app rather than a site. It’s easier to be active and interactive.
And btw Huggy Bear gave up the life for work in the pulpit @funcartel, the pimp game isn’t as prosperous as it once was.
So neither one of these sites is really for people meeting for mutual comfort without the exchange of money
Regardless of how it seems, @snuggleup101 CuddleComfort was not developed focused on services for hire, or with pros in mind years ago when the site was brand new. As far as I understand it, there was a large influx of women joining and bothering people to pay for cuddles. Allowing pros to apply and offer their services here helped mitigate this.
and the complaints about the "Companions" site is that it is not as organized for men to pay women money for affection, and has too many people seeking affection for free. Our world is in a sad state.
I don't think that's what's being implied about Companions at all. The main complaint I have anyway is that it isn't doing enough to stress a platonic nature, whether you are paying or not. Please go back and re-read the posts without injecting your own narrative.
@snuggle554321 Some of what you said is in reality the other way around. Cuddle Comfort was actually created for "people seeking affection for free". It only started to cater for professional cuddling several years later. Whereas, Cuddle Companions is a website that was created for professional cuddling and that remains its sole purpose.
@BashfulLoner That was not Huggy Bear, that was Fly Guy. But yes, same actor. His son was an NFL running back, but he was never a Chicago Bear. ?
That’s right! I couldn’t recall fly guys name, but he is forever huggy bear in my eyes.
Wish I could delete this initial post. Turned out my friend was lying. It IS her. sheesh....
Melancholy you were right. She was lying.
I tried cuddle companions. I got a few inquiries in the beginning, but that was it. Several guys asked me for more than just a cuddle, and I blocked them. I haven't had an inquiries since. They take way too much of a cut imo.
