Scheduling issue query

[+ azdr0710]

because Mike paraphrased the client's letter for us, it may sound a bit more silly and terse here than the unabridged version.....

 

always fun to read Mike's various posts, whether serious or funny (or whether I can't tell at all)....

How do I respond to the following email from a client, which I've paraphrased below (the client knows I'm posting this btw before you all crucify me):

 

"You fly into town on Saturday. I can't meet on Sunday. i don't want to meet you Monday or Tuesday because I don't want you to be tired from seeing a lot of other clients. But I don't want to meet you on Saturday because you will be tired from traveling. So I guess we can't meet." ...

I would reply

 

" If we had potatoes we could have steak and potatoes if we had any steak"

My perspective is a little different. I'd say, "Thank you for your interest. I schedule appointments so as to ensure I will be able to give my full attention and efforts to everyone. However, if that's not enough to reassure you, then perhaps I am not the right choice for you."

 

Also, the other aspects of your post will be my Exhibit A the next time some schmoe asks why escorts stop engaging with the message forum.

The guy is either baiting you (looking for you to apologize or promise something to him) or he has legit concerns and shitty delivery. This response is polite, reassuring if he has actual concerns, and doesn't allow room for him to continue to prod you if he's just BSing.

That client email is manipulative and passive aggressive - I would ignore it, myself. If you want to respond - the "Thanks for thinking of me, perhaps next time!" suggestion was pretty neutral.

I woke up to someone telling me to quit the forum, someone getting mad at me for posting on the forum instead of returning his email, someone telling me he no-showed yesterday because he ran out of money six months ago, and someone telling me I prey upon the hopes and dreams of dying men. This, I'm not really in the mood to argue with the client in the paragraph above and am hoping others will chime in.

 

Come to Oregon and I will make you feel better. Or richer.

Mike,

 

This guy is just a manipulative troll trying to get into your head. My first inclination is to ignore it and block the email address. Second option would be "Thank you for your message. Perhaps our schedules will allow us to meet at a more convenient time in the future."

 

The best thing to do is ignore the criticism about your participation here on the forum. Much of that is driven by petty jealousies and should not deter you from contributing to this forum.

Mike,

Unfortunately, this is par for the course. An escort with whom I am very familiar showed me an email once and it went like this:

Client: Hello, I like your pictures very much and I think you and I would be compatible. Are you available tonight?

 

Escort: Hi, thank you for your email. I am not available tonight as I am already booked. Would some other time work?

 

Client: You f**king whores are all alike, you tease with pictures and turn me down. Never mind your're a has been anyway.

 

I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself. I'm sure many escorts get emails like that.. that's what the delete button if for.

I would add that his has gigantic issues about hiring and could easily disrespect you and degrade you during or after you met. I would just thank him for his inquiry but say you regret you and he are not a match. Move on. This guy is trouble.
