1. Characteristics

Wealthy

Wealth is the most basic requirement of being a sugar daddy. Only when someone has financial freedom or enough money to provide economic support for their sugar baby can they be called a sugar daddy. It's not about simply being nice, giving gifts, or occasionally paying a bill—that's not a sugar daddy, that's a splenda daddy.

Action-Oriented

A real sugar daddy cares only about actions. They rarely make promises or paint pictures of the future, but instead provide tangible benefits such as monthly allowances, fixed assets, luxurious gifts for holidays, fancy restaurants and hotels for dates, etc. Some fake sugar daddies often paint a beautiful future to their sugar babies but can't even fulfill the basics like monthly allowances or PPM payments. These are actually sand daddies, not sugar daddies.

Emotionally Invested

A real sugar daddy treats their sugar baby as they would their spouse. They do not force their sugar baby to do things they don't like but instead respect their wishes. A true sugar daddy shares daily life and emotions with their sugar baby like a genuine couple, striving to create more shared experiences. The relationship they seek is not merely transactional but one that involves true emotional investment, aiming for a deeper connection with their partner¹.

Mature

Maturity and composure are fundamental qualities of a real sugar daddy. They are usually older with many years of life experience. They value emotional stability and emotional fulfillment in relationships, not driven by desire and impulse. In a relationship, they look for mutual companionship, focusing more on stability and long-term prospects that provide sustained satisfaction.

Generosity

Generosity and giving actions are essentially the same thing. A real sugar daddy does not just talk but actively and willingly provides financial support to their sugar baby. After each date or meeting, they may even voluntarily give extra money beyond what is agreed upon, because most true sugar daddies are successful businessmen or financiers who understand the value of time.

Negotiated Agreement

Before starting a sugar relationship, a real sugar daddy will propose that both parties mutually establish an agreement, ensuring that the sugar baby receives a specific allowance while the sugar daddy gets clear services and companionship from the sugar baby, such as meeting three times a week or four times a month, etc. This helps effectively protect the interests of both parties.

3. What Real Sugar Daddies Are Looking For

Real sugar daddies have usually established themselves in their careers or lives and have reached a stage where they seek something more fulfilling than casual relationships. They value the energy, vitality, and perspectives of younger individuals and seek happiness and contentment through mutually supportive companionship based on financial backing³.

Companionship

For some sugar daddies, this is their primary goal. They desire their sugar baby to bring warmth, offer tenderness and companionship when needed, and listen to their inner world.

Novelty

Most sugar daddies are older and may have been with their wives for many years, gradually feeling the loss of passion. Thus, they hope to find a younger, more vibrant partner who can reignite their desire for emotional connection and love.

Sex

For another group of sugar daddies, this is their primary interest. Young people typically possess open-minded attitudes, boundless energy, and a hot, sexy physique, which can make some sugar daddies feel rejuvenated and trigger their desires.

Self-Recognition

Some sugar daddies seek affirmation and admiration from their sugar babies. They may be very successful in their careers but face setbacks in their personal lives. However, because a sugar relationship is based on financial support, they receive abundant praise, support, and admiration from their sugar babies, which gives them a sense of fulfillment and recognition.
