Semi-Truck Driving TikToker Details The Downsides Of Being A Sugar Baby

For anyone out there who thinks that being a sugar baby is a walk in the park, a semi-truck driving TikToker by the name of Sara Danielle is here to set the record straight.  She's been in the game for more than a decade and has seen it all.

Sara's received the expensive gifts, been on the lavish trips, and collected thousands in monthly allowances from several sugar daddies over the years.  She's also seen the scammers who offer more than they can actually deliver or the ones who try to avoid the initial meeting in public.

The 31-year-old from Iowa, who has been a sugar baby for 13 years, wants people to know how much work goes into it and that the relationships aren't all about sex.

After a quick lesson in what to avoid early on after an encounter with a "con-artist," Sara told What’sTheJam, she eventually landed her first real sugar daddy.

"I was 18, he was 58 and a professor.  He was separated and his kids were older than I was.  We met a couple of times for coffee and lunch."

She continued, "He was kind and sincere, each time we met, he would hand me cash so that I could go get my nails done or go shopping.  Our arrangement only lasted a couple of months."

Following the short-lived relationship with her first sugar daddy, Sara decided to go the more traditional route with her dating life.  This didn't last long.  She was underwhelmed and went back to dating sugar daddies.

When she got back into the game, she changed up her approach.  She was no longer a one sugar daddy woman, she was going to date multiple at the same time.

The gifts, the trips, the wealthy CEOs and monthly allowances all started rolling in.  As did the realization that these relationships exist on a short-term basis and that the lifestyle has downsides of its own.

There's More To The Sugar Baby Lifestyle Than Making Money

"None lasted more than a couple of meetings here and there, and no strong feelings or connections were made," Sara admitted. "It’s actually quite cut and dry.  Both parties are very well-aware of what the expectations are."

"The role of the sugar daddy is simple – he is aware that the sugar baby is looking for luxury," she explained.  "He needs to provide that if he wants access to the sugar baby when he is available and on the terms that suit him."

"I think what’s really important to understand about this lifestyle, is that it’s not just about the money or the material gains.  There is so much more to it."

If you're chasing money, then the sugar baby lifestyle isn't for you.  It's all about building relationships and with that comes an investment of your time.  The money will eventually come, but it's not an overnight process.

"These men do not want to feel like an ATM machine.  You will sift through endless emails, have endless conversations that will just fizzle out," Sara said.  "It can be quite overwhelming and quite exhausting, you have to have patience."

You have to do your research, and you can't go after the money too hard.  Legit sugar daddies aren't into that, according to Sara, and you're better off being an escort if all you're getting into it for is the money.

"Never go to a hotel or a home without meeting in public first," she warns.  "Always share your location with someone you trust and let them know where you’re going and who you’re seeing.  Your safety is imperative."

"The chances of you finding a sugar daddy on social media platforms are about 0.01%.  If there’s no plans to meet in person, it’s probably a scam.

There you have it.  The ins and outs of being a sugar baby from a semi-truck driving TikToker with more than a decade in the game under her belt.  It's not as easy as it sounds on paper.

If you can't trust her advice, who can you trust?  With a title like hers, she's not about to steer you wrong.
