Hello! I’m new to the whole sugaring scene and I’m looking for advice on how to convert my vanilla relationship into a sugar relationship. I'm currently in a long-distance "situationship" with a guy that I initially just saw as a friend and potentially as vanilla relationship potential until I recently realized we aren't compatible for a vanilla relationship. I still really enjoy his company and he has bought me a small gift in the past and has expressed interest in wanting to buy me more gifts, fly me out, and objects to me getting a job while hinting at financial support, but I never took up the offer because I wasn't at that level with him. But now that I am open to a sugar relationship, how do I ask for more monetary investment? It's difficult because although he has expressed interest in providing for me, he's also one of those guys who talks against simping and probably would not openly agree to a sugar relationship at first. Any suggestions of how to introduce it naturally/seamlessly, perhaps without the use of sugaring terms? Thank you!
