How do you, as client, feel about escorts giving YOU thank-you gifts?

[Despardo]

On two occasions when meeting an escort in a hotel bar, he has bought me a drink--wasn't sure which of us should have been buying, but was OK with either. One escort who turned my world upside down (it was a very passionate and very special and emotional connection--the kind of thing that almost never happens) left me his favorite porno CD which we had watched together. That was before he left and discovered that I had doubled his fee plus a little extra to boot. When someone brings you almost to tears and you think you are in love and he stays the night out of choice and you want him never to leave...

I have had a few escorts give me gifts after visits (generally after extended visits of an overnight or a weekend). Some others are very prompt and courteous with a simple thank-you card or note (not a text), and this is also great. I do not expect a gift and so even the slightest gesture is great.

A bottle of wine around Christmas is always appreciated, it has happened to me a few times.

In 3 years of relatively frequent hiring for mostly repeat extended sessions with a consistent group of guys, Dane Scott is the only one that has put himself out and Taken me to lunch at a favorite place in West Hollywood during one of our overnights. I don't have any unrealistic expectations of being showered with gifts, nor would that be a desire, but I have been struck by the lack of business sense exhibited by some guys who otherwise seem so savvy. Most will send a nice note that is certainly appreciated, but essentially nobody has linked my "frequent flier" status to any concrete rewards - and trust me, I'm not looking for anything big here, just some acknowledgement of the fact that I'm a good multi-hour client, tip a minimum of $100 for each appointment, and always make sure that we eat and drink well. What's even more interesting to me is the fact that they have no realization of how much more will come back to them if they do little things like occasionally extending a session for an hour and saying something like "Why don't you stay for another round on me today - you've been great and I appreciate your business." That level of thoughtfulness and generosity would be both appreciated and repaid many times over. These multi-national companies that extensively use loyalty cards don't do it out of generosity - it's good business practice to sometimes give something small back to increase the underlying commitment and connection to the customer....and briefly, a shout out to my buddy Starbuck who found my new Avatar...

For the record, I am NOT above accepting gifts and gratuities at any time, from anyone.

On rare occasions--never the first session--I have given the escort a modestly priced gift when something like it has come up in conversation with him. I remember one had a fantasy involving a certain leather item and I saw it shortly thereafter at a leather expo and gave it to him next session. He seemed pleased I remembered and thanked me. No escort has ever given me anything. I would be astonished if anybody did. But I think it would impress me. Escorts who are thoughtful toward repeat clients in this way will undoubtedly help their careers, is my view.

I agree with alot of what you say, but you lose me when making the suggestion as to how an escort can be generous. that's up to the escort. it might not be more time to your meet but a lunch, dinner or something equally as thoughtful

[Amoco]

Point taken, Jim...if I gave the impression that I think extra time is the only way for an escort to "give back", it was not intended. Any thoughtful gesture that shows some appreciation of my business would be greatly appreciated. And again, the irony here is that it's a classic case of being "penny wise and pound foolish" - I seriously can't imagine not finding some way to repay any service provider who shows that kind of thoughtfulness. This isn't about getting a gift of significant value. It's instead about valuing clients.
