We are a matchmaking personals for successful and wealthy benefactors, and attractive guys and girls. A couple years ago, the site noticed an uptick in the number of members signing up with a university email address, Alexis Germany, a spokesperson for SeekingArrangement.com, told Business Insider.

Nearly 17 percent said they would be willing to participate in the sex trade in order to pay for their education, while 11 percent indicated a willingness to work directly as escorts. A decade ago, only 3 percent answered in the affirmative.

Emily said that she’s felt “more threatened on Tinder dates” than she has on Seeking Arrangement and that even with the age difference, she fears 20-something-year-old males more than she fears anyone, especially in a college town. There are limits, however, to how honest a person can be on Seeking Arrangement. Identities are often partially concealed, with neither sugar babies nor sugar daddies disclosing too much personal information. All users have their reservations, and no one is immune to the worry of being exposed. As of 2017, more than 1.2 million college students have registered as sugar babies on Seeking Arrangement.

They appear to be running from casting call to casting call. When an SBU student graduates, she is greeted by her sugar daddy with a chaste cheek peck and they drive away in his Porsche. In this video, Sugar Baby University is quite literally an educational institution, a real live college campus. It feels to me as though Seeking Arrangement wants me to equate sugaring with being a model. The paradox here, in my mind, is that most models are notoriously underpaid.

A monthly allowance given to sugar babies by sugar daddies can help relieve students’ significant college costs. Allowances typically range from $1,000 to $5,000 a month, with the average sugar baby making $3,000.

The next few people who reached out to me through Seeking Arrangement were not up my alley. One man complained that his disability made it difficult for him to pick up women. Another had a fetish for submissives and wanted to pay me $4,500 a month to help him realize his fantasies.

• “I don’t want another family,” he said.
• Seeking Arrangement has a disclaimer that it is not an escort service company.
• After exchanging numbers with one of them, they told me they wanted an online relationship and he would send me money for basically building a relationship with him.
• The next few days consisted if me driving around the city trying to find a bitcoin atm where I’d be transferring money he put into my account (thousands of dollars) to his bitcoin account.
• Even Yale, a university that prides itself on a system of financial aid that meets “100% of demonstrated financial need,” still sometimes fails to relieve students of intimidating educational costs.

It lets daddies fantasize that when he meets his sugar baby in the bar she will act sexy, but as soon as he drops her off at the campus gates, she will go straight to the bookstore. I went on ‘seeking arrangements’ in hopes of finding a sugar daddy to help me with college expenses. After exchanging numbers with one of them, they told me they wanted an online relationship and he would send me money for basically building a relationship with him. I agreed and after he was persistent on me giving him my bank information because other apps, such as Venmo, resulted in his bank account getting stolen, I decided to trust him. I know this was my first and major mistake but I was desperate.

And the more I thought about it, the more I realized just how slippery the slope of sugar dating really is. It’s all too common for a man to believe that the fastest way to date high quality women is, for lack of a better phrase – to get rich or die trying. all of my interactions would have resulted in women shamelessly trying to convert me into their loyal sugar daddy and requesting a “sugar baby allowance” every time we met. So, as a test I sent her a message on Seeking Arrangement without sharing my photos to see her response.
