You're welcome to disagree. I have no problem with that.
 
I read the OP's post as follows:
 
"I recently had an extended session with a semi regular"
Semi regular and an extended session.
"He initially agreed to go to dinner with friends of mine"
So, he knew it was a dinner with friends on an extended session.
 
Up to this point, I might find that the escort was in an awkward situation if the dinner was more grandiose or intense than described.
 
"but when the time came, he begged off saying that they would know something was up (“I mean look at you, and look at me”)."
Right here... this suggests that the escort is more interested in what 3rd parties think, instead of focusing on the client.
He might have been ashamed of what he did for a living. I don't know. But, it was self-centered and he wasn't focused on his client.
 
Now, ...
 
"He bolted [...] leaving me at the restaurant and wondering if he was coming back"

Not 'he politely excused himself', nor 'took me aside and informed me'. Just, "He bolted".
"he seemed to walk ahead or behind me, like he didn’t want to be seen with me."
He knew he was going to be out in public, so why the change in behavior?
 
Sorry, regardless of the preparation or lack of discussion. As described, this is either him being unprofessional, or, being a total drama-diva-queen. Take your pick.
 
If you don't agree, that's okay.

Whether a client is high maintenance or not is irrelevant. The profession is all about companionship. The escort's job is to be there for the client and provide for the experience.
 
If the escort is embarrassed, or has personal issues about being seen with someone who doesn't fit the escort's vision, then too bad for the escort. It is their job to make that client feel important and special, or, to not accept the client at all.
 
If they are uncomfortable with an unanticipated situation, then it is their responsibility to respectfully end the encounter and, possibly, accommodate the client for services not rendered.

Absolutely there is more to the story and that we are seeing this through the lens of one person's perspective. Every story has at least three sides to it.
 
A good escort makes sure there aren't communication breakdowns and avoids disappointing the client.

True. There are varying degrees of situations. No one asked him to lie or fake a story. In fact, he isn't required to answer any questions about himself. It's about discretion. Just because the escort is asked personal questions doesn't mean he has to answer them.
 
I've know many people who are adept of diverting the conversation to topics that aren't about me or my relationships. Saying, "I'm friends with <client> and he asked me here", and then seguing into a topic is perfectly fine.
 
The point being, the escort handled the entire encounter inappropriately. He accepted the job/client with knowledge of the evening's plan. He wasn't professional enough to cope with it.
 
Lastly, he was so uncomfortable, then it was incumbent upon himself to discuss what the client felt comfortable with sharing. The evening was supposed to be about the client, not the escort.

I have to agree with you here, @KennF. As often happens in these discussions, the pendulum seems to slowly (or sometimes not so slowly) swing to the side of the escort-i.e. the client must have done something wrong. This is especially prominent when someone has ‘picked on’ another member’s favorite.
 
I’m sorry-people of different ages associate with each other all the time. I have a Facebook friend, the father of three. He’s currently in NYC with the two oldest-a girl and a boy at least one of the children is probably 21 and the other is close to it. If he goes out without his husband, and is alone with his son is everybody going to think the young incredibly handsome son is an escort (although to be truthful the Dad is really handsome too). Years ago I took one of my nieces-probably 20 years old at the time out for lunch when I was visiting the city she went to college in. I’m a fat bald guy and a subordinate of mine saw a picture of my niece once and asked whether she was a model. So did I have to be her sugar daddy just because we were having lunch together? Sure we-esp in our gay community at large and esp in this one -might wonder at seeing an attractive lad with an older gent, but it could be a father/son, actual Uncle/nephew, grandfather/grandson, or a boss/employee as just some examples.

And for me, if someone lists it in their profile (or as something they'd be into), it is a deal breaker. Just had that this past week.
 
There is a difference between saying "No PNP" and just not listing it as something he's "Into".
 
Everyone is welcome to make their own choices. I choose not to be around it anymore. (It fucked my life up before, and I don't want it fucking my life up now.)
 
An escort may be perfectly in control while using drugs. It isn't worth my time to find out if he is or isn't. There is no one so attractive or desirable that I'd be willing to risk the potential for that erratic behavior, again.

PNP in an ad is not about what the escort does on his own time.

I am seeing more and more adds include PNP. Is this a trend?
 
Perhaps I’m old fashioned but this automatically disqualifies the companion from being considered. Any association with drugs (even if they say it’s just their clients) for me is a non-starter no matter how attractive someone. So from my perspective the number of companions seem to be shrinking. Curious what others think.

Don't get me wrong... I like tattoos. I find them fascinating.
I, also, love the male form. I find it exhilarating.
 
 
I remember being with one guy whose tattoos were really great, but that's what I was paying attention to. He had a beautiful cock, an inviting ass, and luscious lips. His amazing tattoos were a walking work of art.
 
As a client, at the end of the session, and even today, I'm not sure what kind of experience I had. Was I a participant in the evening, or merely an observer.

Love the 3/4 sleeve on the first guy. I think he's done a really good job of accentuating the muscles and not distorting them. Smokin hot!

Labels describe. Labels don't define.
 
"Top" describes whose cock will be going into some "Bottom's" ass.
 
Being a "Top" doesn't define what other things they also do. Rimming, being rimmed, in your case swallowing, etc...
 
Top doesn't even define who is physically on top or who is in control. There are plenty of aggressive bottoms who like to fuck themselves on a guy's thick cock. In that position, the Top is on bottom and more passive, while the Bottom is on top doing most of the work.

Are we talking about reality or technicality?
 
I don't believe that the disclaimer is a defense against prostitution, however, it is a defense against solicitation. In some jurisdictions the offer of sex for money is the offense. With the disclaimer, the offer is, technically, contingent on the disclaimer terms.
 
Reality is a different matter. That hinges on the politics of the jurisdiction and politics of the LEO involved.

And me as well. He's in my neck of the woods, and piqued my desire. *winks at @Topseed*

I wouldn't recommend a client do it for the aforementioned reason that applies to the escort not doing it. I don't want to think I am sloppy seconds for a client who just got topped by someone else. It also comes across as extreme clock-watching, making too much of an effort to expedite the session. Additionally, it can make rimming awkward. It's nice if you remove the decorative pillows from the bed in advance, but pre-lubing is too much IMHO.

I'm (mostly) a Top but I love to swallow cum! Great responses from @JudasKane & @KennF ...
