I bring it up because in the strictest sense of the word I have been either a Sugar Daddy or Sugar Baby at one time or the other. When I was younger I had a fairly well to do girlfriend help me with College and a car. Once I became established I found myself doing the same thing in another relationship.

If I was to critique many of the posters here I bet I would find similar situations

I'm going to play the Devils Advocate on this one as I believe a good percentage of the population already fits the definition of a Sugar Daddy or Mommy. Anytime there is a large difference in income, where one person is reliant on the other for thier survival you have a Defacto Sugar daddy relationship, even when married (Anna Nicole Smith comes to mind).
I think a Sugar Daddy or Mama is more than a disparity of income. Generally there is an expectation from the one with income that the other will maintain a certain degree of physical appearnce. And there is more of a dictatorship than a partnership. Furthermore there is an expectation that for this relationship to continue the Sugar will always be the one to provide the sugar while the other party continues to be provided for in the manner they desire.

In other scenarios perhaps there is a differnce in income yet other factors are taken into account, as in the one with lower income provides the health insurance or retirement plan. Or maybe they are not the major bread winner but they made it possible for the bread winner to achieve their current position.

I wouldn't give up anything for one, and I don't think many reasonable men would.

But if I was single, in a busy period of my life, I'd consider it. I would not expect it to be anything long term.

I have the means, I don't have the time, and if I want something simple on my terms, okay then.

I have a SD that I see from time to time and might meet with another one. I was already doing the noncommital thing anyway and felt unappreciated by the guys I was seeing so this feels like a better arrangement for me at this time in my life. I have a lot going on right now so a serious relationship I could devote all my energy and time to just isn't realistic. I remember having a broke boyfriend though....we went halfsies on everything....god that sucked.

Oh the question asked if someone would be an SD..my bad
oh and OP try not to be so cynical, you wouldn't want the guys who only look at girls who are fresh out of high school. I've met some of these cats...they are creepy and have issues usually...and a lot of guys couldn't afford the age gap anyway.

Yeah, but it starts to deviate from the topic of "would YOU be a sugar daddy......" and into "describe the mindset of a sugar daddy...."

As I have already mentioned, I could never be a sugar daddy myself. But I am responding as a relatively young guy with a wife who is hotter than most Hollywood acctresses who gets great sex regularly. Now, if I were an older, single guy, living a comfortable life, but in an extreme drought when it comes to sex, or, only have rare and occasional sex offered by old, wrinkly, elephant grey, dried up, saggy boobed and droopy bootied, post menupausal Nancy Reagan-esqe types, then I would GLADLY and HAPPILY prefer to become a sugar daddy to some 18-22 year old girl who would exchange regular sex for a few dollars to buy som Mac eyeliner, Juicy pants, a new Coach purse or books for her education at USC, UCLA or Pepperdine.

So, consider the options: 1) No sex; 2) sex with old dried up pruny sandpaper private having post menupausal grannies, or 3) regular sex with young nubile firm hot bodied girls for a few dollars or gifts here and there Its an easy decision to make for an older guy living a comfortable life.

But me, personally, nope I cant see myself doing it.

"I have a SD"
What makes it a SG/SB relationship in your mind? Whats the Age disparity? Does he buy you gifts and fly you places?

well...I don't know his exact age but he's more than a few years older than me. We met on a site that's specifically for SBs and SDs. PS LOTS of johns on that site looking for discount escorts, don't fall for it ladies. We just started the arrangement so I haven't traveled with him yet...but he compensates me generously for the convenience of this situation and hanging out with him for a few hours. I couldn't see him in normal relationship, he's too much of a workaholic.

Nope.

I've spent a lot of time living in countries where the dollar...stretches pretty far...and have had ample opportunity to use that to my (sexual) advantage.

Never have.
