ORIGINAL: BonesFromAsh ~fast reply~ You know, this thread brings up an interesting set of thoughts that I hope the OP won't mind if I bring up and, hopefully, discuss here. Leaving out the "married and cheating" nonsense (I don't play that game), what if you're meeting a prospective with the understanding that there might be some sort of bdsm interaction but neither of you have access to a dungeon and haven't quite gotten to the "Come into my parlour..." point....who pays for the hotel room? Think meet/possibly beat/leaving the door open for more type of thing, not casual sex. Seriously...am I the only one who has considered/done this sort of thing? Just tossing that out to see who picks it up. My general rule on this depended on a few factors. The biggest one was who was traveling for the purpose of playing in the first place. My rule said that no casual play partners came to the house. If someone was traveling to visit Me, that means that they would need a place to sleep anyway. That means the cost is on them. The same works in reverse if I was going out of town to an event and preferred to stay over. Events like SELF, DomCon, etc are pretty much necessary to have a hotel room, well booked in advance anyway. When I lived in GA, I was at 1763 quite often, and took one of the mini-dungeons for the night. It's not that uncommon for the demo presenter or event organizer to have an overnight room provided for them if they are coming from out of town. I have to admit, I got a few "extra" nights out of that deal. Everybody in the same town? I'd usually pay. If for no other reason, it's because MP and I would both be sleeping there. However, that's not usually something that I volunteer to do unless somebody is damn close to being My sub anyway. When it's just casual stuff, there's not going to be any sexual contact, so it doesn't come up.
