Good for you! Stand your ground, no offence why doesn't he just get a sugar daddy? 

 

Thats what he wants. Someone to pay for his leased BMW (which I advised him against) , and nice clothes etc.

Double from what to what? $150 to $300? $200 to $400? $400 would be the top price for a very popular and talented escort. Why would you pay that amount for anyone who isn't top-notch? Do you live somewhere with little escort availability?

From $200 to $400 and I live in an area where there are plenty of guys around.

I have seen a college age guy from time to time as an escort. He is not really the kind of escort who advertises or has a lot of clients but sees people he meets off Grindr from time to time. He and I also chat from time to time outside of meeting up and in fact I helped him write his grad school essays. Recently he said he wanted to double his rate from the what I had been paying for a couple of years. He has fancy tastes in cars and expensive clothing and I suspect he has had a few people who pay a rather inflated rate for his time. Recently he has been texting me to get together(at the new rate) because he has gotten into some heavy debt and is kind of desperate.

Anyway I find the whole idea of paying someone twice the rate that you've had going on for years somewhat a turnoff. It's not like I gained a lot of weight or asked him to do anything wacko. Would you guys be turned off by this?

I wouldn’t approach an escort in public and I wouldn’t be pleased if they approached me.

You never know who else is around and what the other person is dealing with in that moment.

A smile and a nod is more than enough "public" recognition.

I don’t get upset if they don’t even acknowledge me that much. They may see it as inviting closer contact which may be unwanted at that moment. Don’t take it personally. It’s a business relationship. Nothing more.

Also, don’t forget that in general these are young men with little social experience. Sometimes they get caught flat footed and haven’t planned on how to deal with this unexpected situation ahead of time. Thus panic sets in and they may be unable to socially adapt as quickly as you or me.

I agree that discretion works both ways. I would not be thrilled if I was out with a group of friends or work colleagues and a young man came up to say hello and then I had to answer the obvious questions of "who was that?" In this case the individual was sitting alone but I learned my lesson. From now on discretion both ways!

The other night I saw college aged escort out studying alone in a coffee shop. I was walking by and went into say a brief hello. I think it made him uncomfortable since he messaged me later asking my to keep our encounters private(I just said hello-how was school, etc--nothing about our encounters). He felt self conscious that the whole coffee shop had seen us talking briefly and he studies there often. This is someone who is a great guy but also not shy about posting provocative pics on his instagram and only fans. I apologized and said I would not greet him again out in the community.

I realize all individuals are different but I know other escorts that would be unhappy if I ran into them in a bar and didn't say hello (and maybe buy them a drink).

Is there an unwritten etiquette that should be followed? 

I have to say that as a client I felt a little put off that an escort would be horrified that an older guy said a brief hello in a coffee shop but I understand escorts are also dealing with their own issues.
