'Epi' was a true gentleman, in everyway.  He invited me to a home cooked dinner back in the Spring, he was full of knowledge and laughter - and excellent cooking.
Sad I didn't have the opportunity to reciprocate.
RIP Epigonos!

It is with a very heavy heart that I must tell you that my very dear friend, Epigonos, is no longer with us.  I was informed this evening by a close friend that it occured apparently last night in his sleep.  Ironically yesterday was his birthday.
Please help me through this.  Thank you.

+3 on 9th Ave. That's usually my go to when I am in NYC -- also because I stay in HK anyway, so. But definitely a very diverse crowd and something in there for everyone.... and that Kiwi bartender someone else mentioned above is definitely very friendly.

and we need to celebrate, not shame, that fact

Couldn't agree more!

I’m not a moderator, but I’m still going to suggest that we get back to the OP’s question. 
I suspect some of the gay seniors in places like The Monster’s upstairs space were among those who fought, organized, and sacrificed for our community. They deserve social spaces that are gay-senior-friendly, and I’m eager to know where those spaces are.

And he says he is Straight! go figure.

Yes many of my clients like an afternoon booking. It can go in their work diary as a work meeting (networking / training) and then doesn’t interrupt their evening at home with the wife 🙂. First thing in the morning is also a thing; it sets the day up well.
I really don’t mind what time of day they want as long as there’s decent notice and then I can make sure I’m ready to give a great service. 

How do you forget that?  He's looks great.

Thank you for sharing this....
Good people need all the help they can get

Still is.

He was one of my last hires before covid shut everything down. I’m by no means a sizeist, so I was a bit apprehensive 😬 but he came highly recommended from another hobbyist. Suffice to say, he knows what he’s working with, and how to use it well. Very well. 😉

Apart from the physical, he’s a nice, fun guy. If you’re thinking of engaging him, I would say go for it! 👍🏻

I met with ClassicColt this past weekend for a couple of hours.   Homerun choice.    Eager to please and did it all well.

Jarrod, it seems that you always have problems. Maybe time for you to move on????????????????????

Like therapists, It's always up to providers to control the time.  Your specialty, fisting, can NOT be rushed, and if you are going to feel slighted if not compensated when it does run long, you really need to make it clear at the beginning how time consuming fisting can be, and that while "I don't want you to feel rushed, I do keep a busy schedule (insert something about ha ha it's not ALL clients I'm not THAT much of a whore ha ha) and so it's really important that", well the rest is up to you.
Yes, it's important that clients feel comfortable with you.  Additionally, however, it's important that you not feel resentful or you will not enjoy escorting as much as we all want you to.  So, create a compassionate, firm, playful script and stick to it.

That is so very true. 
Unfortunately, some providers cannot tell the difference between the two.
Many providers feel that they should not have to answer questions prior to the hire.  They feel their ad and photos should be sufficient data for a client to make an immediate decision to hire.  
Let us not forget, MANY ads are fake and contain exaggerated/false information and stolen photos. 
Over the years, how many threads in this forum were started by forum members asking about ads that appeared to be fake and were later proven to be fake? 
Countless ads were discovered as fake simply because other forum members asked the question and various other forum members responded with proof.  
In view of the above facts, some chat by a client is an attempt to make less, the chance of being scammed with a fake and false ad.  
Of course, there are true "time-wasters" but too many legitimate clients are falsely branded as wasting the time of an escort. 
As an analogy, if I went to a store to purchase a product and if I asked the sales agent questions about the product before I made the commitment to buy, would the sales person tell me to read the advertisement about the product and call me  a "time waster"?   
 

His body was even better in person. I took the risk of meeting someone without reviews and it was worth it.

We are all praying for your continued good health!!

I had several encounters with rates between $150-$300. And I’m talking about good full hour of tumbling around on the bed and all sweaty lol. It really depends on provider, how good that days mood is and how young or good looking you are. Providers are human beings and they have good or shitty days as well. I’ve been charged way less several times just because I’m relatively young and quiet handsome. I don’t want to brag about, it’s just is what it is. In my very personal and humble opinion, you are in control of your own happiness. Talk, discuss and just be a nice person. They will appreciate it on so many levels. If not, we’ll maybe it’s not the right guy for you. 
I’m sorry if it’s too lengthy. 
Just sharing my experience and thoughts. 
Peace ✌️ 

The construct of the provider's texts suggests that there may have been some language barrier in the mix that further complicated the exchange.

Yikes 😬 you def escaped that one, all questions you asked are normal, he’s clearly having a bad day. His comment about flakes I get it, but that doesn’t give him the right to just be an asshole to a potential client who was simply polite and interested. You’re better off❤️

Unprofessional behavior. Plain and simple. If providers took their business seriously, this would very rarely occur.  But these are strange times, moodiness abounds, we all have to try to go with the flow, but I too wish that responsiveness would be something on offer to clients more regularly.

Kudos, @MattOSUGRAD

If you do hear back from him at some point, please update the post so we know he is okay. I think it's kind of you to be concerned about his wellbeing.

After viewing AJ's "encounter" with Castro, in the video linked below, I could understand his decision to go top only.
I don't know how he was able to withstand it to conclusion.  An A+ for endurance.
