I saw these guys this week. Feel free to PM me for any details.

Bumping.

Sir. The deposit you’re requesting is $550. Have you considered that some potential client would naively send that deposit, all to be ghosted?

With a 50% deposit…..

I thought this already occurred on Mr. Number?

Is it “public shaming”? Or is it accountability? Why should someone who is hustling victims out of their money be protected? if a member of this forum has been hoodwinked through such various scams, I see nothing wrong with addressing it. Usually when one victim comes out, others do too, and can share their stories to protect others.

This is exactly why. They “flipped the script”‘on the exploitation and said “no more!!”. Now they’re in the U.S. and are charging $300 per hour, just for an untrained MASSAGE.

Spot on!! I was just about to reference the Iconic Dominique Devereaux!!! 😂😂

And you won’t work on those behavioral/character flaws of yours… It’s the stench that you emanate.

No, I don’t. My expectations of your character are too low to impose such a reach…. So “better” will have to suffice. The sad part is that you literally proved within an hour that you weren’t even capable on doing that. I’ll work on brevity when you work on those obvious character flaws of yours.

True. However, some people don’t deserve the false sense of satisfaction they get from getting the “last word”.

After reading your other posts on various topics, I see that you think you have a “schtick” of being sarcastic and “witty”. Unfortunately, you’re just coming across as an old, catty, bitch with a tarnished tiara. Do better. BE better.

If you’re bothered by my comments, you can block my profile so you won’t see any of them. Further, when I mentioned silence, I was specifically referring to receiving the services I noted in that comment. Additionally, this is a forum. The point of forums is for people to share their opinions, discuss and learn from other’s perspectives. Take your idle time, and your sophomoric attempts of sarcasm and find something better to do. 🥾💨💨💨

Thanks for your feedback. No. not hurt at all. I have no ill-will towards the former friend. Just have no reason to attempt to go back and recreate a paradigm that’s long gone. I see this no differently my than other chapters that closes in my life, which includes high school, college, and old jobs. Enjoyed my time there, learned what was needed and don’t need to go back. To elaborate further, there are friendships where I’ve lost contact with people, and we started back exactly where we left off (and the reunion was great). However, this scenario wasn’t one of them. I got bad vibes from him in a shady way, which is why we faded out. Having a mindset focused on moving forward doesn’t indicate any continued trauma or issues. IMO, those who continuously go back and forth in relationship cycles with people are the ones that need to be questioned on their “emotional wellbeing”.

Approach life understanding that nothing lasts forever. So if you have an outstanding rapport with a massage guy, barber, retail Salesperson, dry cleaner, tailor, car detailer, friends, co workers, lovers or anyone else; just enjoy the fantastic experiences while you’re getting them. Once this changes, move on, and appreciate the memories, and feel good about what’s to come next with someone new. Recently I ran into a former acquaintance I hadn’t seen in years, we travelled, worked out, shopped, and bar hopped together. Everything was great until it wasn’t. He faded out and just didn’t contact me anymore. He had closer friends with whom I assumed he gravitated with more. I ran into him recently, we exchanged pleasantries and he asked to get together to “catch up”. I told him that we just “caught up”, and I’m good on reconnecting, but it was great to see him and I wish him well. If I see him again, I’ll be just as pleasant, but will tell him the same thing. Once a ship has sailed, I don’t need to swim off shore to try and catch it again….

The most important thing here is the service you’re paying for, which is the haircut. If she’s not so Alison with you, who cares? To each his own, but I love getting treatments where there’s nO talking at all. Manicures, pedicures, facials…. Just let me meditate. I had a facial a couple of months agi and I was scared that the esthetician would start asking me a hunch of questions about my skincare routine etc….. Once I booked my appointment, there was a prompt for “special requests”. I wrote one word: Silence.

No one will ever do that. Most people don’t want hard truths. They want conclusions that make them either feel good about themselves, or like “victims” due to the poor behaviors of others. Your average person has a worse reaction to accountability & self-reflection, than a celiac has to gluten.

Agreed!!! I remember dating a guy years ago. After being “love-bombed” for months, he lost interest and pursued the dude he was most interested in and decided to start a confirmed relationship with him. When things faded out, I wasn’t angry at all. I took the hint and stopped contacting him. He was shocked that I let him fade so easily and actually confronted me about it (we went to the same gym and saw each other all the time). I told him this: I enjoyed the good time we had and have no reason to be angry. Plus, no one matters to me more than myself, so I’ll never care.” I wished him luck with his new boyfriend and continued my deadlifts….

In any relationship (friendship, intimate relationship, or business relationship), one should never expect long-term consistency in behaviors, emotions, or loyalty. Humans are entirely too fickle, self-absorbed and complex messes for that. If you want that consistency, get a dog.

I booked him Sunday Evening. He was great.

National is just not a safe airport, and doesn’t have the appropriate “air” infrastructure to handle as many flights that land and depart, while competing will military aircrafts. On a daily basis, one can literally see a “traffic” jam in the sky, of planes waiting to land. I live 10 minutes away from National airport and always used BWI or Dulles when I did fly.

I simply won’t be flying anymore. The surge in plane crashes is disturbing. And for the statisticians who say that “scientifically”, planes are still safe….. I personally loathe the methodology of comparing aircrafts to other modes of transportation for various reasons: 1.) The average weight of a car is about 4100 lbs. the average weight of a commercial aircraft is about 175,000 lbs. 2.) A car can hold around 2 -5 riders, while a plane can hold scores of passengers. 3.) Many car collisions happen everyday, with no fatalities. There are rarely “fender benders” in the sky. In most cases, when the plane crashes, death is imminent. My trips will be quite long moving forward, because road trips, scenic train rides, and long cruises will be part of my itinerary . I cancelled two business trips (seminars), and took the virtual online option. I’m simply not flying anymore. My sincerest prayers for safety for those who still choose too.

Ummm….. I didn’t SUGGEST entertaining these options. I clearly stated that they exist. My posting was no reflection of what I can or cannot afford. Please read the comments thoroughly before responding.

He’s an absolutely no. -No skills -Smoke cigarettes (and smelled like it) -questionable hygiene.

Reading non-verbal cues is important. No one really needs verbal authorization in most circumstances. If a client is on a massage table, and he’s squirming and clinching his butt cheeks every time the masseur is poking T his bitt, that obviously indicates he doesn’t want anything inside of him. Same thing goes for kissing. If the guy turns his head away, that’s and indicator that he doesn’t want the guy’s tongue showed down his throat. Many predatory guys clearly see these cues and intentionally ignore them.
