Are 'Sugar Relationships' based on the idea of love or internal interest? Essentially the Sugar Babies website is a social media outlet like Tinder or Match.Com, where people can match and go on dates. The major difference here is that everyone on this website wants something more than 'true love'. Sugar Babies want wealth. They want someone to pay for their tuition or take them shopping in a Lamborghini. As for Sugar Daddies, they want the company of a beautiful young woman, one they could never achieve based on personality or looks. Especially for business nights or nights out in general, $1,000 is nothing to men like this if it means the jealousy of his peers. These relationships are not based on love, and according to the Sugar Baby website, over 70% of these relationships never get to marriage. Gaston Pars' idea of Courtly Love back in 1833 has no role here (Delahoyde 1). Chivalry is nowhere to be found on a site like this.
