Any of you remember this ditty from 1971? If you traveled in Europe, you probably heard it...

Gilbert Montagné (born 28 December 1951 in Paris) is a French musician from the Ménilmontant neighborhood in Paris and Bourbonnais, a pianist, organist, and a singer. He is a decorated Knight of the Order of Arts and Letters. Blind since birth, he is best remembered for his international hit "The Fool", which was a number 1 single across Europe in 1971. In France he is still a popular albums and concert artist, having toured with the likes of Johnny Hallyday.

Hopefully we can actually meet this time and laugh it off with a Drink...or 4.

 

WAIT!!!!

 

An escort who will actually drink with me during our appointment?

 

WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU AND How's your tomorrow?

 

Damn, booze and "companionship" who'da thunk it?

Sometimes, if I'm feeling really frisky I'll drink seltzer!

I'm late to this party, but first let me put my two cents in.

 

I think it was a mistake to reschedule. You either are naive, or you really want the money. If it's the first, you do not have my sympathy. If it's the second, you have my sympathy. Assuming that this is somebody local, and it does not inconvenience you other than time wasted communicating, arguably you don't have a whole lot to lose.

 

When I started escorting I kept a list of contacts who had expressed an interest in meeting with me when I got to their city. I think there may have been prospective clients I emailed up to a dozen times, and never met, either because they ignored my emails, or the timing never worked. One time a guy hired me for an hour and when we met he said it was mostly because I kept emailing him every time I visited his city and at some point he figured, "Well, what the fuck, I may as well give him a go." No one ever accused me of harassment, but arguably getting repeated emails from an escort is either harassing on my part, or stupid on my part. My point is that I viewed it as "worth it" because I had the time and figured I had nothing to lose. There is something similar about this, as long as you feel you have nothing to lose.

 

Did he actually agree to pay partly or fully in advance, or are you just hoping the 4th time is the charm? And even if he does show up on Attempt # 4, are you comfortable with having communicated to him that there is no downside in repeatedly cancelling appointments?

 

Please let us know what happens. And good luck!

oh Wait. I typed That wRong. good Luck. ;)

Without a deposit I'd say 1:10 at best.

 

It's very patient, even generous, of you Jock. On the rare occasion I ever had to reschedule with an escort, I made damn sure the second meeting went off without a hitch. Maybe he is just super nervous and not a complete flake. Good luck!

You know there are lots and lots of pretty good clients on this forum that most likely would show up on the first scheduled appointment. :confused:

 

Maybe you ought to check some of them out. ;)

I'm sorry I didnt make myself more clear. After getting a message from another escort(From the Forum)who suggested I require a partial payment, I told him(the Client) thats the only way I could ReSchedule. In which he followed through paying Half up front so I'm sure hes Serious(Finally).

I'm still new to escorting. I've developed some regulars but really Business has been down the past few months. I've seen about half of What I'm use to mainly because of Rentboy being shutdown. MOST of the people I have seen this year I saw last year(My Regulars) and If it wasnt for a certain regular of mine who Hires me for a week, Every other month I'd be In trouble considering this is a "Full Time" job for me. I'm not on Rentmen as of yet..I'm a little Apprehensive As you can see from a post of mine http://www.companyofmen.org/threads/sooo-about-that-rentmen-website.108885/

 

 

I do Appreciate however some members asking for my Ad Information. To make a long story short I'm currently In the Military also(Reserves) and really prefer to be Anonymous for the time being and this site seems to throw out Peoples Identity out there Pretty often...I dont know maybe I'm just being Paranoid? I do Enjoy this site however...Everyone(Well most) seems nice and helpful. Really most of you have been nothing short of Amazing,

Good for you. I take back what I said. You are not naive to do that.

 

The government attack on Rentboy is the piece of shit in the pool that just keeps stinking and stinking and stinking. :(

Good for you! That was a smart business decision. Now whether he is super busy, super nervous or just super flaky, you have some protection and he has some additional motivation. Try to figure out which he is. If it was just a bad case of nerves you can get him past that. He might become a new regular. ;)

I have a regular client who has cancelled repeatedly, or changes at the last minute. He broke plans last week without saying a word, rescheduled for today, but then yesterday tried to reschedule for a day earlier than planned, then a couple minutes before I could even respond, he decided to stick with the same day. Then...this morning I hit him up because I wasn't going to get out of bed if he wasn't coming, then he cancels AGAIN. I'm done with him. In the trash he goes.

 

Even though he's seen me 3 or 4 times, I'm not going to be played around. He's a good client, but even though I'm an escort...I draw a line as to what kind of behavior I tolerate. That kind of behavior can manifest the same sort of inner body/mind stress as being cheated on or laid off, or missing a paycheck. How would he feel if his boss told him every other week, that the pay check they were promised, bounced? What if his wife/husband, told him that he/she isn't coming home tonight or staying late at the office every date night? The body can't tell the difference, next thing you know, you wind up in the hospital suddenly of a heart attack or mental breakdown.

 

If any man or woman thinks it's okay to treat someone like that, then they can go to the nearest sex shop, find the biggest dildo...and pleasure themselves. Because I will definitely be pleasuring someone else.

Good for you. Most doctors' offices have a no-show fee if you don't cancel over 24 hours prior to the appointment. Ours doesn't, because we serve the poor, but I wish we had some system to discourage no-shows. As you might guess, it's usually the same a-holes who no-show repeatedly. It makes it very tough for others, because appointments in our system are at a premium. A patient who wants to get an appointment with me usually has to call within 10 minutes of the appointment unit opening up at 7 AM (unless someone cancels during the day). I feel that there should be one no-show allowed per 10 visits or so, then the patient should be charged.

If it weren't for a certain regular of mine who hires me for a week, every other month I'd be in trouble considering this is a "Full Time" job for me.

Well, you can't have it both ways. You can't have this be a full-time job if you're too paranoid to have an ad (I'm not sure why rentboy was fine but rentmen is problematic for you). If you want this to be your primary source of income, then you need to advertise seriously. Either that, or (1) join the military full-time, or (2) see if you can get a sugar-daddy.
