Rarely do I tip unless the service is above and beyond. If they charge $200 and expect to receive $250 ($200 + $50 tip) then they should just charge $250. They control their own prices. 

I don’t pay much attention to what guys state as their “orientation” in their profile. What matters to me is their performance in bed which, as I make abundantly clear when setting up a date, involves among other things very very passionate kissing. If they deliver, I will repeat. If they don’t, they are gone. I couldn’t care less with whom they enjoy sex in their private life. 
I have had many absolutely spectacular meetings with boys who, after kissing me hard, rimming me deep, sucking me hungrily, and getting my load up their willing hole, used to take their girlfriend out to dinner with the money I paid them. C’est la vie. 

I'm married, but for me kissing is still a part of  hot🔥hot sex.

I've had providers who listed "Kissing" on their ad. When I contacted them, they said they kissed with their tongue. When we met, they wouldn't.
One kid that happened with, he told me that he "only kisses on a second hire." Cute, but that ensured that I'll never feel his lips.

Or telling him that the session has to end and pay him 1/2 his fee or NOTHING!!

I, too, most definitely "prefer a more interactive experience."  To date when I'm interested in a particular escort, I peruse his "I Am Into's" in his ad.  If his interests are not similar to mine, I pass and go elsewhere.

From what I understand, some potential clients don't even read profiles in detail, so it may not matter whether you omit it from the list of what you do or explicitly state so in your profile text.
Either way, I think it would be helpful for both you and potential clients to confirm you don't kiss in your first reply to an initial inquiry.

I love kissing, and an happy to do it with clients but I agree, many clients don’t want that level of intimacy. They’ll be fine to do everything else but kissing is seen as indicative of some kind of emotional attachment, especially with straight clients. 
If a provider really doesn’t want to kiss ever then I think he should say so in his adverts. If kissing is conditional then that should be discussed with clients if they specifically ask about it. 
However, the most important thing is that if you’re going to kiss…you MUST kiss properly. Kissing is a skill, it’s so much better with a good kisser. 

 

I don't really care. If I find the guy attractive and he is an active participant/seems to be enjoying himself (even if it's only acting)... I'm good.

I'm looking for more of a BFE type experience when I hire (kissing required), so I avoid straight providers. I've had good experiences with both gay and bi guys, and am more concerned about "I am into" than orientation.

$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.

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.

Once again Jarrod shows his true colors.   He has such great contempt for clients it's hard to believe anyone would want to hire him.    I have to believe that his reputation on this board as a complaining crank follows him on RM and any socials he might be active on these days.   If I ever contacted a provider and got the replies he seems to send (send me $$ for a conversation, I'm not in your city yet - chill out, do you actually want to meet or just bugging me, etc.,etc.,) I would run for the hills and tell any potential clients to not waste their money.
 

He doesn't know any single thing about that person, and seems like you did not inform him about having a roommate when making arrangements. To me that looks like a personal safety thing.
Yes, you should have told him. He's coming to a home of a stranger, that alone has a degree of risk, then he's surprised by seeing another stranger hanging out in the house, without knowing who that person is or what the intentions are.
I don't find the actions of the provider unreasonable.
I've had unpleasant experiences with opposite roles. I've been to the place where the provider is set, and I have found people there hanging around, and it does not feel comfortable and pleasant. In fact, one of them had the roommates passing back and forth in front of me while I was getting the massage.
IMO, both the client and the provider should be aware of other people present in the place where the event will take place, regardless of how "open minded" the people around are. The "I'm ok with it" thing or "I'll be a fly on the wall" thing is not the issue; it's a comfort and personal safety issue.

I agree. I don't believe RM messenger is as encrypted as it should be.
I think it's just an unwritten rule - RM for basic info, and texting for actual hiring.

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. 
 

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

It is tax season ....

I go days without looking at the RM app/page.  I do not go days w/o looking at text.  If the convo stays on RM Chat, I won't keep up.  That may be part of their motivation to move it to text, to not seem as if they are ignoring you.  Also, it's a good way to monetize the relationship,  you'll likely feel compelled to make an actual appointment if the convo is via Text.

It's annoying. 
No way to send a long email just a short phrases. 
Most guys who contact providers this way are a waste of time:
Hi
what's up?
how are you?
They should go back to email with several sentences
This subject has been talked so many times on here...

In most walks of life, if the other person doesn't bring it up, you shouldn't either.

Don't forget that we also "get a real sense" of a provider's attitude, personality, and behavior -- including politeness or rudeness. 

Scammers like those from the OP’s experience are emboldened because they know clients will send deposits.  Every client in this forum should be advised and warned NEVER to send deposits.

I’ve NEVER paid a deposit and 99% of providers don’t ask for them. Even the high end ones who are models and reality stars and Instagram influencers who won’t show their faces in rentmen. Of whom I’ve seen many.  You’re quite delusional.
