When a provider 'shorts you on time'

[Ali Gator]

I've noticed a lot of clients have been commenting that certain providers 'short them on time', whether an escort or masseur. It's happened to me a handful of times. My question is - do you ever speak up and let them know that they have shorted you by 15-20 minutes (or more) ?

I always have. When my massage appointment is scheduled for 60 minutes, and I have my happy ending at 35 minutes, I always look at my phone when they say "You're all set" and remind them we have 25 more minutes to my appointment. I then give them a couple of suggestions on what we can do to fill my time - continue with the massage, let me massage them, some muscle worship (I did that last week with a masseur when I had fifteen minutes remaining) or just talk in the nude.  I find the provider to always be understanding and accommodating. IF it's an escort session, I tell them we can stay in bed for the remainder of my booked appointment, and 'have fun' with each other - it works.

I'm curious if others speak up and point out to the provider that they have more time coming on their appointment (without asking for money taken off the amount owed) ?  Or do guys just pay up, get dressed and walk out with more time remaining on the clock ?

I never say anything, except "thank you" and then decline from tipping. I am always hopeful that a financial disappointment will speak more loudly than anything that might have come out of my mouth.

And I won't hire him again.

If a session with a good escort "ends" early, I usually look at my watch and say something open-ended and inviting, like "We still have X minutes.  Do you want to hang out?"  That let's them answer either way.  If they say yes, then they'll likely be a repeat hire.  If they say no, they're a one-and-done (and no tip).  Of course, if the experience wasn't great, I just say goodbye.  

I might feel different with masseurs, but I rarely hire them.

With an escort you can always cuddle after you cum and I guess most of us do. 

I'm surprised you want to have your HE at minute 35 and not at the very end of the session. I do understand trying to do something other than hanging out considering he's a masseur. 

There was an old thread about reverse HE... meaning HE at the beginning and the massage after.

I rarely say anything because it doesn't happen that often, and just as I don't like being with a provider who is a clock watcher I don't want to be a client who is a clock watcher.  By that I mean a few minutes extra or under, not half the appointment time.  The only time I remember speaking up was with a traveling guy who went to end the appointment after I came relatively quickly (in under a half hour); we ended up chatting a bit and then playing around a bit more and still ended up only using 45 minutes of the hour.  Needless to say I didn't hire him again even though he obviously turned me on (or I wouldn't have reached orgasm so quickly).

[+ Pensant]

In many years, it’s never happened to me. Sometimes the reverse happens—I have to gently suggest that they probably would like to go home. I always host, though, so perhaps that’s the reason. 

[StarQualityLuke]

If you hire a provider for a full hour, you should get a full hour.  If you hire provider for 75 minutes, you should get it full 75 min and so forth. Some of these providers are absolutely ridiculous because they don't give the clients the full time or even more.   If I go over that's on me not the client.  I guess you get what you pay for🥲

We're allegedly paying for time and nothing by time. We are clock watchers!

Oh God no. 

That would be creepy for me.

I wonder what the demographics are with that statement. How many men want affection and a "cuddle" and how many just want the down-n-dirty.

I mean, I'm married...so "cuddling" with an escort would just seem so wrong to me. Like a lot of men, I compartmentalize my sex life. But I'm sure the first and most obvious

division would be exactly THAT: those who are single and those who are in relationships.

I have a feeling @marylander1940 that it's not "most". But I'd be curious to know the percentage. Material for a new thread, I suppose.

I have to agree with you @pubic_assistance that the cuddling just doesn't work for me.  I'm pretty much of a 'thanks for the down-n-dirty' and move on.  I'm a very busy man and got other things on my agenda that need taken care of. 😉

I wouldn’t call it “cuddling”, but I love ending a session with naked spooning.

That's a way to cuddle.

[+ Jamie21]

I think it’s bad form to short a client on time. They book an hour they get an hour unless they want to finish early. Sometimes a client might cum after 45 minutes of an hour massage session and if that happens I just clean them up and continue the massage. It’s fantastic to have your feet massaged after you’ve cum…try it! And of course it’s lovely to have a head massage at any time! 

When I’ve done escort sessions I haven’t assumed that just because the client cums the session should end. Usually I’ve suggested a shower together or cuddling or just talking and then things usually get going again.

I have a guy that I have been hiring for a while now. Usually several times a year for a 90 minute session. The sessions have always been enjoyable, he’s a bit quiet, but that can be nice sometimes too. I’ve always tipped very well. I’ve never complained and always show up fresh from the shower! I had a session a few weeks ago. He’s only booking 60 minutes now, which is not normally my preference. I get on the table and he gets started. Very nice, very slippy, slidey. He worked me over and finished up after 35 minutes or so. He made sure that I was finished up quickly. I was out the door in 40 minutes. As I was pulling the cash from my pocket, I looked up and saw the clock, only then realizing how quick the session was. I took $30 off of what I was going to give him. Why tip so much when I didn’t even get the hour I hired for. Was kind of disappointing! I won’t go back again. It just felt like being taken advantage of. I’m ok if the session ends a little early, but that was cut really short. Time to find someone new!

[+ DrownedBoy]

I give them a less-than-five review and report them to RentMen, and will let everyone here know.

If a provider agrees to stay a particular time for a specicified fee, and leaves early without offering compensation, they're a thief, and I'll treat them like a thief. Period.

While I agree in principle, in practice this isn't always something i want to do. There are guys with whom I want to cuddle and others, despite having a great time and hiring again, whom I don't want to cuddle. It depends on chemistry.

I've had a provider do this! I came a little over an hour (we'll say 65 minutes) into a 90-minute session. I started cleaning up and he said "We still have 25 minutes together. May I cum for you and then show off some more?" After the 90 minutes were up (he actually went over time) he showered and we said our goodbyes. Needless to say, I've hired him over and over again. 

Another time, long ago, I hired a regular for a 60-minute session. I came, he looked surprised, then he came, we said our goodbyes, and he left. I looked at the clock and realized it was 40 minutes past the hour. I had an amazing time, so I shrugged it off. About ten minutes later he called me to apologize for not realizing we still had 20 minutes left. He promised a two-hour session for the price of an hour the next time I hired him. The next time, he reminded me we would do two hours for the price of one. He was a regular right up to the day he retired. IIRC, he made a special trip to San Diego from WeHo (where he lived) to see me one last time. 

Not every session ends this way. One guy, who I also hired regularly, shorted me on almost 30 minutes. I came early, he looked at the clock, said he was beat and started getting dressed. When I mentioned we booked two hours he told me he was beat and needed to get some rest. I deducted 25% of his fee. Shortly thereafter he sent me an email about retiring and being in a bad mental state. His shorting me was out of character for him, so I too him at his word about being in a bad mental state. I later learned he had been fired from his management-level day job. I wished him well.

I've had some masseurs short me on time, and the quality was poor, so I didn't repeat.  I also crosschecked here after and to my dismay discovered they had bad reviews. I was a fool not to check before.

remember when "assertiveness training" was the hot thing in the 1970s?..........

I have rarely gotten shorted in time, though my last appointment did short me for 20 minutes on an hour.  I did not even realize it until I was dressed.  After the act, I: will usually lie in bed for a bit to recover, whether or not my partner stays there is up to them.  I tend to really clench my thigh muscles on my way to orgasm so most times I need the extra time to insure that I will be able to stand/.  Isometric clenching for a prolonged time can wear out the legs.  As a result of that, I rarely get shorted in time, that and it usually takes at least 45 minutes for me to come.  

[TonyDown]

When the provider quotes the massage rate, I ask if that is a full hour.  Sometimes it isn't, right?   

I figured if I'm shorted, then no tip, and probably no repeat booking.

[Mark_in_SF]

My regular escort isn't a clock watcher. Unfortunately, I'm so nearsighted I can't read his clock without my glasses, which always come off for sex. I generally ask the time (I always book for two hours) after we're done playing, and we'll spoon and talk the rest of the time (about almost anything). Sometimes we've run well over time without him realizing, but he doesn't seem to mind. I pay (and tip) him at the start so I don't forget, and because I know he'll be worth it.

[domonkasshu160]

I do not repeat when they short me on time.  I make every effort to be as clear as possible in our previsit text correspondence, to be civil and kind during the session, and I let the provider lead during the session.  I don't check the time during the session.  I remember what time I arrived so that I can compare when I am leaving. 

I won't be able to get the betrayal of that first time out of my head and would rather just try someone new.  I don't play games when money is involved. 

I was upset at my last new hire because he failed to give me instructions on how to enter his condo complex and where to go until I had already arrived when I had asked him multiple times to send the instructions ahead.  I arrived 10 minutes early in anticipation of this, yet he still sent the instructions in parts, not telling me the next step until the previous was done as if this was a game show or something.  That ended up taking 15 minutes for me to get to his door.  After the session I was showered and in my car with 8 minutes still left in our original hour.  Add that to him asking $100 more than advertised and then coming down after I pointed out his ad and his reviews, and the professionalism was gone.
