Ok, so yesterday I had a meeting with a cute guy who was briefly discussed here in the last few weeks. I had been corresponding back and forth with him on rent masseur and we agreed to a set time to meet up at his place (at hotel since he was visiting). I text him on the way and he knew approximately how long it would take, but with LA traffic one never knows.....anyway, just as I was arriving I received a text......need another 15 minutes. Ugh....I said ok since I was parked across the street from the hotel and I could just hang out and catch up on emails, etc. Then there started to be a lot of activity at the small hotel which culminated in 2 cops entering the lobby and a car that pulled up in front. Needless to say, I sort of freaked and got a little paranoid. I text the guy to say I was not comfortable with the delay and oh, btw, the cops are crawling all over this place. I was out of there.....

 

He text back a few minutes later very sincerely saying he was just running late and that he didn't know what was going on....declared he wasn't law enforcement and agreed to meet me for coffee or whatever since he felt bad. Said he understood and would have probably bolted too.....Long story short, I ended up meeting him anyway albeit about 45 min later and all was good - no law enforcement although he did have a decent gun on him. Would you have left to begin with?

I would have bolted, not because I would think he was law enforcement but because I would not want to get caught up in whatever activity prompted law enforcement to be called.

 

Agreed. You'd think if it was a sting, they'd been better at it. However don't want to get caught up in whatever is going on. I would have left even if I was just going in to the hotel bar for a drink.

It probably wouldn't even have occurred to me that it might have something to do with our escort appointment. I would have assumed a terrorist incident or other sort of violent crime at the hotel, and would definitely have backed away.

My thoughts, exactly. Hell, I would have bolted if I was about to check into the hotel.

Yes....the way you handled it was smart. Any bright person would have done what you did. With that being said, this masseur sounds like a keeper. The way he conducted himself was professional and classy. (he even agreed to meet you for coffee? sweet!) I know some masseurs that would have, wrongly, just blown you off as a flake and not texted you back, and would have dropped all communication with you. The fact he kept in communication with you thru this ordeal, agreed with you and understood, and on top of that honored your appointment 45 minutes later shows class and style. That masseur not only sounds like a winner, he sounds like a really nice guy. We need more like him in this profession!

I'm thinking this is a euphemistic "gun". Back in the days of "American Gladiators", one of the hosts commented on one of the female gladiators' "guns". I'd never heard that before and was a bit shocked since I assumed he was commenting on her breasts - very racy for Sunday morning (when Gladiators aired in my town). It was only later that I found out he was talking about her biceps.
