@Mocha I wholeheartedly understand your frustrations, I do, but all of....this, is counterproductive.

Mocha never learns. I told him years ago he's in the wrong business and needs to do something else. He continues to bumble along and whine/complain. Mocha is the consummate victim. Always was and always will be. Sad but true. Next.

I’ll tell you what I have learned: I need to ignore you and you need to do the same.

 

I don’t care about your opinion. Guess what? You told me years ago and I’m still here, still banking, and since years ago: I’ve bought 2 cars already, and met LOTS of clients. I pretty much have clients in every state. Because I love what I do and do it very well, regardless of what you think or feel. Your opinion is not my problem. Never was, never will be. I have plenty of new and regular people who are more than happy to see me and keep me in biz. If you don’t like what I have to talk about, you can keep it moving.

 

What are you doing with your life besides coming on here and trying to put me down and criticize what I do? Worry about yourself, because I’m not worried about you. You don’t even have a picture of yourself on here. Why am I going to let some Mr. nobody tell me how to run my life?

 

Bye!

You’re right. I had to just take a breather. After writing that post, I had to find a good article on letting things go, and I think I have a clear head now.

 

Just like I said earlier in this topic, it’s time for me to just stop entertaining all these texts. I’ve got to stop. After that guy sent me the message saying he couldn’t make it, I should have just said nothing...and just went on about my day.

 

I’ve been practicing with it lately. Today I’ve not returned 2 messages: mainly because they’re asking if I’m in a certain city when it’s clear on my ad the travel dates I have up.

And on A4A I already blocked 2 potential clients because they weren’t following the instructions like I asked, and felt my blood pressure going up.

 

I’m really not being a dick, but it’s just going to have to stop. It has nothing to do with me not liking escorting or being in the wrong business like @EZEtoGRU seems to believe, I just cant be imprisoned by round the clock messages, which aren’t going anywhere. So...I’m just going to respond less. I don’t know if it comes off as desperate or pushy, but whatever case...all the times of me trying to communicate with people and get them to stick with plans, I’m cutting down on all that. If they follow up great, if not I just can’t be bothered.

 

It’s easy for someone to sit on the sideline and make it seem like I’m the problem, but if they actually had insight into what I handle on a weekly basis, they would understand. So I’m not worried about what someone else says, because I don’t expect them to understand.

 

They also wouldn’t understand when someone is trying to operate in a bad market, the issues are intensified because you’re not just dealing with the regular issues of the business. I’m in an area that I know is bad for escorting (at the same time, reasons have it that it’s what I have to work with for right now).

 

I’m working in a market (Midwest town) that is known to have racist incidents, has a frugality economy across the board, high levels of poverty (and some of the attitude of clients who pay, treat it like we’re looking for handouts, not as someone on business...and that’s why they don’t keep their appointments) the Black locals here don’t support my business (I’ve had 1 black local client in the 7 months I’ve resided in this market, and it was a 3 som with his White partner).

 

So it’s easy for people like @EZEtoGRU to run his mouth and talk about business being bad. But what he doesn’t see, is my regular client I’ve known for years in Phoenix who just offered me 1,000 next month. What he doesn’t see is the client I have in Florida who paid for my rentmen ad for half of the year. What he doesn’t see is the 27 year old construction worker who gives me 300 everytime he scheduled an appointment with me. Yet has a body like an MMA fighter.

 

People want to talk a lot of crap, but have nothing to back it up.

A client who I met once before, contacted me Thursday asking if I was in town. No “are you available for an appointment”, no greeting or anything. So I returned his message Friday, saying that I had arrived back to town. He’s asking if I can host. I told him I’m not able to host. He tells me he could get a hotel for me, but he’s asking if I can meet on the Friday I had just arrived.

 

I told him, I would like to meet today...but I had just returned from being out of town and had a long ride the day before. I asked what other days he would be open to meet during. He gave me Sunday (today) was the best day he could meet, but mentioned possibly a couple of other days.

 

The night before, I text to confirm time. No response. He texts me the next day after noon, to say the text just came in, but that he can’t meet today because it’s storming. The storm was last night, it’s clear today. Now: he could have easily texted me that earlier before getting my message. He waits until getting my message from the night before saying anything about canceling.

 

When I ask him for cancellation fee or he can rebook within next couple days, he says “really” then gives me some rundown on how HE wanted to meet Friday but I wasn’t available (once again, someone trying to boss me around by being non-negotiable, and then suggesting other dates and not making due on it). Then he tells me to “take care”.

 

You asked for a cancellation fee for what? Based on YOUR DESCRIPTION, you had no confirmed appointment.

Why not blackmail clients even if they do show up for appointments?

 

Or mugging them Craigslist style?

He has found a never-ending supply of yentas here who will listen forever.

It's good manners quoting or mentioning someone @Mocha , don't you think?

If you don't want a thread to remain on top, ignore it don't bump it.

I’ve decided, I’m not going to fight anymore. I’m just going to let everything Rest In Peace. As the serenity prayer goes:
