I'd be apprehensive to provide a credit card number at this stage, but this could really a viable form of payment for future transactions. I'd be open, provided security was clear. I remember when "paypal" first came about and I had to get over the "safety principal". We all have security concerns in today's world. I think the original posters concerns are valid.

So how many escorts out there have been asked by a potential client if they (the escort) would provide location for the booking? Now it can make sense if the escort is in a hotel and centrally located in a city. What I have found a bit odd are local clients who make that request. I usually just tell them that it is their responsibility to provide the location. I'd prefer not to have clients (regulars could be an exception) in my home and they should take the initiative. Thoughts? Maybe it is just my own way of thinking and needs adjustment here.

I have. I've been into landscaping since I was a kid and was hired to mow a client's front yard and weed his front landscaping once.. We proceeded to his bedroom after I cleaned up. I even got a tip for extra duty. He had family coming in and his mowing company couldn't do his yard in time.

Being a new member, I can certainly can appreciate the efforts past moderators, posters and participants put in here. My only experience is "Realjock.com", which started in 2006. Great site here and kudos to past members who gave time and work!

I do remember lAs the World Turns”. I watched during college and graduate studies. What a nice way to take my mind off school requirements!

What a great conversation. You never know what one is going to find in these forums. I believe that if you click with someone, it is really worth seeing what happens. I personally like taking it slow and see what develops in this area, but I also know the rush that comes from really clicking with another guy. It's like your own special communication that you don't think others will ever understand. Let it play out, so long as the OP knows the challenges and potential pitfalls of this, his eyes have been opened (or opened more). I think updates are crucial. Hopefully he will return and give us the latest.

I'm a relatively new viewer. I like the Jack & DIane pairing. I like Susan Walters and Peter Bergman.... but there are a number of others. I initially hated Phyllis, but the actress who plays her is just perfect.

Well this was over a year ago, but it sounds like it was an awesome time and a great trip. I hope you will have another vacation like that!

So the daily soap operas have gradually been fading into history as a few more are cancelled from time to time. I think there are only 4 left on the daytime 3 (ABC, NBC and CBS). I read an article that the genre may return. I admit, I'm a "Young and the Restless" fan.

Perhaps the director is just into drama....lol

They don't do much for me either, but perhaps they have some meaning to him that escapes us all.

Great input!

So there probably isn't any real answer to this question. I have had clients talk about "too many tats", "not enough" and what they find just right on a provider. I get clients that make recommendations. Some tell me too much is a total turn off. If you are a provider, what do you hear from your cleints and do they like yours? Do clients even expect tats on escorts? If you are a client, what do you like. Just curious.

I generally go to a Kroger owned store called "Dillons". Great store overall. I assume most Kroger stores encourage use of a "card", which provides you with a lower price on many items. If you have downloaded their app, you may have a special price available. Sometimes there are 3 prices listed on an item. It can be a little frustrating, but it works. I am health oriented and because of my background an absolute analyst. Never mind grocery store shopping either. You never know who you might meet, who you come across and what might happen.

A friend of mine who used to escort himself asked me a question. He wanted to know if sex work was "addictive" either physically or mentally? Interesting question, I do think that an active escort had a physical adjustment to sex work the same way ones body adjusts to exercise. Not sure I would ever describe it as "addictive", but I do think it might be for some. Escort work does require a certain mental focus for sure. I certainly invite an opinion on this topic.

I'm with you. The $300.00 is more what I charge, up from $225.00 when I first started. If one offers a professional service and does a quality job, that figure is a deal. I agree with much of what was said. Anything less is not in anyone

I have a client that doesn't take much initiative to eat the right way on a daily basis. He's a regular and has been for a couple of years. I have purchased small things to add to his diet and two or three times fixed a meal for him without any sort of request to do so. He is always very grateful and compensates me for any expenditure plus a tip. He never expects it, however.

Back hair can be sexy and a turn off for me. I know I keep my back shaved and neat, not that I have much back hair.

I like direct and to the point!

So I started out with the idea that my work as an escort would fit neatly into an evening or weekend. Definitely a "side gig" kind of thing. It worked to a point to begin, but as my business grew, I realized the need to be available when the client requests the service, not vice versa. I've been able to manage the process, but I'd had more challenges with vacations, even the few weekends where I am out of town or have other obligations. I get booking requests on holidays and other days that I'd not expect. I totally get the importance of going the extra mile, but to a point. Ideas on how you manage your schedule? I generally let clients know in advance if a weekend/ time off/ is coming up and I am not available during a certain period. Thoughts?

Late last year one of my regular clients was chatting with me about my clothes and started quizzing me about my daytime professional job and what clothes I wear. I responded that I mostly wear athletic dress shirts and Ralph Lauren custom fit polo shirts and typically Ralph Lauren chinos and suits during the winter. He tends to be very trendy and suggested an overhaul. Told me to forgo the older Ralph Lauren chinos and consider something like slim fitting Banana Republic Chinos or even American Eagle. They are much trimmer and tend to show off my ass and body in a way the Ralph Lauren chinos did not. This was a bit of an educaiton for me. A couple of things he stressed: 1. Dress for success in a professional setting means showing off your bod and showing what you have. Marketing yourself all the time can be a good thing. 2. Be willing to change things up and keep a new and fresh appearance, whether it be for casual clothes or work. I did make some major changes. I do like the refresher. Comments on this client's thoughts and his thoughts of "marketing yourself" no matter what the venue?

So I'm curious from any clients out there that have opinions on providers that may give a bad initial impression. I mean, I think we all know you need to show up to an appointment or booking on time and prepped accordingly. I have heard clients tell me that they don't want any cologne or hairspray. A number of things. Just curious as to things you may find offensive or "off putting" when it comes to providers and their approach.

Really nothing unusual for Kansas. We've had about 15 days above 100 this summer, which is relatively normal. Up until the last 2 weeks, we had a "modest" summer going so far. We'll see how it pans out. So long as I can go swimming relatively frequently, I'm good. Sounds like parts of the country are less lucky.
