Lawyer? Hell no, the money isn't the important thing. And parsing out $ wouldn't have worked, he was too far in the red.
 When I die, my executor (a real moneygrubber) can try to recapture it. 

The best advice I have heard on lending money is only lend an amount of money you would not be upset to never get back. It's crazy how many people lend money and put themselves into debt to do it or financial difficulty. Obviously that wasn't you @Rick M but just my input.

Take the cue and move on 😂 

Could it be?….yes.
Is it?….no clue.
Go see a doctor.

You’re hiring; you’re in charge. Take charge. “Woa! I cum very easily. Let’s slow down. I don’t wanna cum too soon.”

Take the cue and move on 😂

It really depends on what you are prepping for. A large one needs deeper douching.

If I see you for extended visits- weekends or longer- for years, then you're a regular.
It's not just about the time or money spent, for me it's do we know each other?

It's the only blessing of the US not being on the metric system - these scammers have no idea what they are doing when they put stats into fake profiles. The other day I was hit on by someone alleged to be 6'5", 135 lbs, with a 42-inch waist. Hot! 

'Hey escorts, what makes you work for free'
I'm sure the replies will be incredibly meaningful, insightful and inspirational.

It’s mixed. I’d say most of my clients don’t want kissing (but they want to be rimmed lol…). Kissing is very intimate and for guys who aren’t ready or able to describe themselves as gay, or for those who are in relationships etc then kissing is a step too far. Others most definitely want to kiss. You can rarely tell and it’s not something that I’d ask before the session. However during the session I’ll perhaps kiss his neck, near his ear or somewhere and see what he does. If he turns his head away then I know kissing is probably not his thing but if he turns towards me then it’s a sign he might want to kiss. Occasionally I’ll ask by whispering in his ear “would you like to kiss” and that’s enough for him to take the opportunity or not depending on his preference. 

I would not mention anything sexual in the first text massage, in case you have the wrong number.  You can mention that you are Okay with telephone calls.
Example:
You (1st message):  "Hello.  I'm John.  I saw your ad in XXX City.   Are you available for a 1 hour session this Friday evening?  I can travel or host in XXX neighborhood.  If available, what is the rate you charge?   I am willing to discuss more by phone call if you prefer"
Him:  "Yes, I am available on Friday.  I charge XXX for outcalls. Etc..."
You (2nd message):  "Great!  That rate works for me.  How's 8pm?  I see you are into kissing and water sports, which is what I'm looking for.  Your ad says "Ask Me" about safe sex; so are you okay if I use a condom when I top?  Feel free to call if you prefer to discuss in person"
 
In summary, keep it short and sweet.  Don't specifically mention paying for a sex act when hiring in the United States.  Mention dates and city in the first message (in case he's traveling), but be careful about any more information in case you have the wrong number.  Try to ask your important questions in the 2nd text messages, and keep them simple so he can respond with "Yes, I'm fine with those activities" .  Don't waste his time with open ended questions such as "What do you enjoy to do in bed?" that require too much of his time to answer and may not answer what you really wanted to know.
Happy hiring!

I live and hire in NYC. 
My sweet spot is 90 minutes for an erotic massage/interactive playtime combo.  For that reason, I prefer working with guys who have both a masseur and an escort ad.  For that, I am quoted rates between 240 and 300.  I do tip well for good performance.  After tip, a 90 minute session ends up being $300 - $400, which I find very reasonable.  The guys seem happy with that and I have no problems getting repeat appointments.

Yes!  And $ is $.

$800. 
It’s the main reason I only do overnights in Europe.
The rates are MUCH more reasonable than in the US.
At $500 for an overnight, it’s totally cool if you sleep next to me all night long.
At $2,000? We better be fucking like teenagers for 12 hours straight.

The “gut” is usually right. 
it’s when we think with our dicks that we wind up saying….. 
“I knew better.” 

I carry my lube (and other accessories)  in Ziploc bags when I travel. Sometimes doubled, i.e. lube in small bag, massage lotions in small bag, both into a big 1 gallon Ziploc.
Still messy *inside* the bag if an accident happens but my luggage/stuff stays out of it.

This may be a new popular scam. I experienced a similar situation. The provider asked for a deposit before providing the room number when I was in the hotel lobby. I promptly left.

The game is the disappearing act lol. After making you traveling all the way to the hotel, the scammer thinks that he has the leverage to extract a deposit and then ghost. 

Report him to the BBB (Better Booty Bureau).

Consider this a nominal fee you paid to learn two valuable lessons:
1.) Don’t give deposits
2.) When people have long stories, explanations or exchanges, filled with “complex” matters and circumstances… it’s usually bullshit.
