I put the exact amount in an envelope. I try to find out his favorite color and use that color envelope. And write his name in my best attempt at “fancy” script. The financial part is vulgar enough already; I try to make it less so. I do not think putting the money in an envelope is a problem though. I’ve had a provider count money in front of me. Twice. Both were overall poor experiences. Both also are no longer providing.

The OP doesn’t matter. You can respect his request. Or you can be a resistant asshole and ignore his request. This has nothing to do with you brown-nosing with escorts. It has to do with respecting someone who asks you to leave them alone. Maybe you’re too impulsively unable to hold yourself back and behave like an self-controlled adult.

The nature of excellence is that it’s limited. Few services are excellent. The mean is average. You can’t demand premium treatment if what you’re offering isn’t premium comparatively speaking. N. B. “A great time” ≠ “an excellent time” Excellence implies exceptionality.

Why did you loop me into this?

So totally agree!

Or you can just be an adult and not respond to his polite request.

A lot of escorts overvalue their time because of when they aren’t working as escorts. What they fail to take into account is that many people have multiple jobs if one job isn’t cutting it for them. The real ninnies though are we who pay for the services of guys who charge to make up for their down time when they aren’t working. Don’t have a real gig for a week-and-a-half? Charge the one gig to make up for it…and don’t do anything to make income the rest of the time. Who’s *really* the schmuck? The guy who works once every 7-to-10 days or the guy who pays to compensate for that downtime, with no tangible benefit? (I’m not counting “1 hour” sessions here…I’m talking overnights that require more than animalistic sex – i.e. something begun plug and play, what might be called “work” more than “fun work”)

Wish in one hand. Shit in the other. Tell me which fills up faster! If work were 100% enjoyable 100% of the time, it wouldn’t be “work.” Suck it up, buttercup. I love my job, but sometimes it’s work. No one promised you it would always fulfill your dreams!

The Wegovy website

I read that as a completely different FFA 😂 Whose members might in fact have experience getting their arms all the way up inside a creature of they’ve ever helped birth a calf! 😆

As long as it’s consensual all around however it’s unfolded, I don’t really care. We all have our thing.

Wegovy and Ozempic are both the same drug, semaglutide. I’m no pharmacologist, but the difference might be in their usage, not the chemical makeup. Does anyone know?

@samhexum, a colleague uses a coupon from Wegovy to get hers for free. Does Ozempic provide something like that?

Precisely why no one has sympathy for anyone in the upper echelons of health insurance.

Some providers brag about their intense libido and ability to cum multiple times a day. It’s really not unheard of.

Adding my two cents… I have been dealing with obesity my entire life, since I was at least 7. Right now I’m at my heaviest. I am well into “morbidly obese” according to my BMI, and while I’ve had moments of success like losing 110 pounds some years ago, I’ve always ended up gaining it back and then some. I’m now close to 400 pounds, and my doctor recently recommended Wegovy to help with weight management. I’ve tried SO much else: dieticians, nutritionists, programs, plans, you name it. Nothing has worked long-term, so I thought “why not?” This could be a real chance to get some control back. Today, I called my insurance to sort out what would be covered and what wouldn’t. The clinic needs me fill out a questionnaire to help determine the next steps, so I assumed this was going to be straightforward. It wasn’t. The “patient care coordinator” I spoke with was barely helpful. He kept talking about whether Wegovy was “on the formulary” and what’s considered medically necessary. Then he said something that floored me: “Wegovy isn’t isn’t considered medically necessary unless it’s for morbid obesity.” I told him, “I am morbidly obese. I’m almost 400 pounds.” That finally got his attention, and he responded with a weak “Oh…okay,” but the whole conversation left me frustrated and defeated. How is this still such a fight? They’re always on you about your weight every doctor’s visit, every form you fill out, but when it comes time to actually provide help, they act like it’s not serious until you’re teetering on the edge of a medical disaster. It’s like insurance companies have created this impossible game: you’re too fat to ignore but not fat enough to help. I wanted to share this partly to vent but also to hear from anyone else who’s been through this with Wegovy or Ozempic. Have you tried it? Did it help? What was the cost like for you, and how did your insurance handle it? I’m honestly curious about what to expect if I manage to get past this ridiculous process. And one more thing, can we all agree that insurance is a scam? They drag their feet, deny people the care they need, and then wonder why nobody has any sympathy for those CEOs raking in millions. (To say nothing about the assassinated insurance CEO a few weeks ago.) The system makes it so hard to even start. If anyone has advice or just wants to share their own frustrations, I’m all ears.

@marylander1940, I don’t even understand what you’re asking… This is also an example of a time you rush to the escort’s “defense,” as I told you about before.

“Can you do brain surgery?” I don’t pay just anyone to do something specialized that I could do myself. An escort can be expected to do things sexually that aren’t what are “typical.” In fact, that’s part of their offering – the extraordinary experience! Further, it wouldn’t be difficult to bottom three times…Depends what the arrangement is at the time of booking. If sex three times is a requirement and the escort can’t deliver, he should say so up front. There are going to be guys who can.

Sleeping together is part of the BFE for me. The sex of course is important but it’s really the *experience* that includes all sorts of stuff. I like to think that I enjoy a guy’s time as an escort in the true sense of that word as much as I do a fucker. So yes – sleeping is important to me. That said, I had one provider tell me I snore badly. So I’m sure that wasn’t pleasant for him… 😬

Of course. I’m just not interested in paying for that, or any of the rest of the things you list. I’m really only interested in paying for actual time together that includes physical intimacy. At the risk of getting crucified for saying so, I wish I got paid for every moment I dedicated to making my job successful. Sadly, fair compensation isn’t something a lot of people get for their time of effort related to work. That’s a topic that’s been beaten to death here and really not the point of my original post, though.

I’ve seen decent porn for free. No need to pay. I don’t understand why people would pay.

Why would you pay for porn? 🤔

We do well to keep that in mind.

Ever since I started hiring several years ago, I don’t pay for porn anymore. For that matter, I find porn, even professional, sort of blasé. I’d rather pay for something real…instead of watching a screen or some guy I will never even have a chance meeting.

If you’re anything like me, you’ll drive yourself batty analyzing what may or may not be conscious or unconscious pathological behavior from such providers. It’s energy that can be used on other things because ultimately you’re really never going to know the truth – although your idea seems wholly plausible.
