RJD

I think part of this trend is due to the proliferation of OnlyFans and JustForFans sites.  They're probably making more money "collabing" with each other than they were seeing unknown clients.  They know how to network with each other and cross-promote their sites, which often times exposes them to a larger subscriber pool.   

I  use the Mach 3 as well and agree, no pressure, just let the blade do the work.  I just make sure the razor cartridge is replaced when needed.  I do it a few times a week.  I find it easier if I stay on top of it rather than letting it go and needing to break out the weed wacker.  
 

I rarely get nicks.  I do it in the shower, so the hot water loosens up the boys, the soap or shower gel acts as a lubricant and of course, always use a sharp razor.  I agree, balls feel great clean shaven and I've found guys tend to pay more "attention" to them when they're not trying to get hair from their mouths. 😜

It’s hit or miss. I hired College Hunks when I moved two years ago to haul away unwanted items and for the actual packing and move. They have different crews who specialize in each service. The haulers were all pretty beefy. The movers not so much and one was rather sketchy. I also hired them once I moved for assistance with carrying and assembling newly arrived office furniture which was freight dropped in my garage to the second floor in my home. They were the cutest and beefiest. I will say, like all service providers, you have a better experience if you treat them respectfully and not like hired help.

Suggestion: all NON-PHYSICIANS on this website stop giving their medical opinions/experience here. Your information can be misleading & unhelpful. And typically wrong. 
Do we go to our plumbers for accounting advice? 
Do we go to our barber for legal advice?
It took my 8 (yes, eight) long, arduous years for me to to learn my craft (I'm a physician) from medical school to residency.  Unless you have gone thru such a journey your (inaccurate) advice is potentially very DANGEROUS.   Yes, for real.
Bad advice can lead someone astray, to their peril. One of the first things one learns in medical school is "First, do no harm".   
Possibly one of the most challenging issues I must navigate as a physician is trying to fix the erroneous, distracting, & sometimes bizarre ideas my patients have heard "from a friend" or "read online". When I fail to help my patient successfully navigate this problem,  they get hurt.
I know you mean well. But it's not helpful. 
Thank you Unicorn for answering the questions/comments above. Your medical opinions were spot on.
I have given thumbs-up on his answers so you can see his & my (two physicians) concordance.
Much love to all,
Josh

Yippee kai yay, motherf****r!!

I have visited many doctors and none has ever asked me to send money before arriving.  There’s a difference between paying a co-pay upon arrival at your doctor’s office for your appointment (or for a missed appointment without sufficient notice) and sending money electronically to an unknown entity whose only means of contact is a burner mobile number and a RM advertisement.  
 
The only time I’ve ever provided any payment upfront to any service provider is when it’s a large job, requires the purchase of substantial materials, and upon execution of a legally binding contract.  Typically 1/3 upfront, 1/3 half way through the job, and the final 1/3 upon completion.  
 
I’ve yet to call my plumber, electrician, landscaper, appliance repairman, or handyman and be required to Venmo a deposit just to get him out to my home.

I was trying to think through my own list of service providers on this one…..
Doctor…no.
Dentist….no.
Lawyer…no.
Trainer….no.
Auto-mechanic….no.
Landscaper…..no.
Plumber….no.
Electrician….no.
Driver…no.
Waiter….no.
Massage therapist….no.
Manicurist…no
Honestly, the only "yes" I did come up with was occasionally for a caterer, but they have significant expenses for food and drink prior to the event and I understand wanting a deposit in those scenarios. 
And no….an enema is not a "significant expense"….it’s just a warm, wet, pain in the ass. 

Would you like me to post our email exchange back and forth for all to see????  Have the receipts!  

Ain’t nobody here at my place jerking to you, bro. Trust me.
 
 

Never said we did.  

I love how you put a positive spin on everything.
The man charges in here like a raging bull, behaves like a 5 year old brat, and you invite him to afternoon tea.
You must be delightful at dinner parties (I’m being serious). 

Here are a couple resources addressing this issue.  Both appear to be offering their services navigating through the process, so remember, while their information is accurate, it’s really a sales pitch.

My suggestion is to hire an experienced, reputable immigration attorney to guide and advise.  There are various options and with each certain requirements for residency either in the States or waiting in a home country.  The risks of fraudulently presenting your relationship can be severe including permanent deportation of the applicant and fines/imprisonment for the sponsor.  

If you present yourself as an “engaged” couple (fiancé visa), immigration will want to see documentation of your relationship in the form of photographs together and correspondence (including texts) between you.  If it’s done as someone just visiting who “falls in love” while here and wants to apply for residency, then there are defined time periods between the time of arrival and application for residency when the application is viewed more suspiciously (30, 60, 90 day periods).

As a client, I find it endearing when an escort occasionally sends a text to find out how I’m doing. I would rather see repeat escorts who at least have an interest in seeing me. There is definitely a fine line though between interest and being a pest….

I suspect your reactions (deposits, charging for messages, etc...) cost your more than you realize.  You are so concerned with billing for every minute, that I believe you lose good opportunities.  I, for one, know that I would not consider a new client deposit on a local visit.  I am certain that I am not alone.
By trying to narrow down the field so tightly that only the best clients slip through, you limit your income.
In any business, I find it more profitable to put your clients needs first.  I've known a couple of escorts that followed this model and eventually reached a point where they had so many regulars that they could be far more picky about who they see.  When you're with them, they don't seem to own a clock.  They communicate freely and just about never mention money at all.  A guy I met in Vegas invited me to shower together when we had already gone over.  Not only did he leave with a nice tip, but I'll call him every time I'm in Vegas.
You've mentioned in the past that you have trouble getting regulars.  Find some escorts that maintain regulars and learn from them.  Your way does not seem to work.  That should be apparent by now.  Time to make some changes.  If you keep doing what you've been doing, you'll keep getting what you've been getting.
