I had an appointment with Tommy Reagan today. The communication was challenging. 30 minutes after the agreed time he texts me he did not walk out of his car because he felt unsafe in my neighborhood.

Holy moly. Sorry to hear that. What a dick!

That blows. Never heard of that excuse on the other hand I never host. Sorry

Any escort that would renege on an appointment using that lame excuse did you a favor.

 

An escort that shows such lack of imagination probably would have been a waste of your time and money.

 

I will wager that will not happen again to you.

I'm playing Devil's Advocate, but depending on where you live in DC, some areas can be pretty "scary", even if the neighborhood is turning around. I have a few friends who bought homes off of H street or in Petworth. Whenever I meet my friends out in H Street, and I'm not exaggerating, the past 5 times we've parked our cars in that neighborhood one of us had our cars broken into or windows smashed.

 

Now if you lived in a "normal" neighborhood in DC like Capitol Hill, Dupont, etc then yeah that's a weird excuse. Tommy has a great reputation and if he didn't feel safe, then it's in his best interest to not follow through with the appointment.

He could have called you when he arrived, if he arrived. You then could have walked to his car if need be. Excuse seems unlikely to be true and even if it were true, there were other alternatives to just not showing up.

He did not call me when he arrived. I called him when it was 30 minutes after the time and got his report.

What is a "normal" neighborhood? Only middle class neighborhoods are "normal"? I live in a condo building in a blue collar neighborhood. Town houses and apartment buildings, a corner store in my corner, a police precinct in the other. I have lived here for 12 years now. I have been parking my car in the street for 10 years now, I never get robbed or broken in. There are not groups hanging out in the sidewalks and in the corner store. I know many of my neighbors, working class families. There are no projects. It is a humble neighborhood, but it is not unsafe and there are not visible threads.

The only thread for Tommy seems to be he saw a lot of Black people and no Whites.

Sorry to hear that. It happened to me once but the guy texted me when he was in his car and I was able to convince him to come. The funny thing is that I don't live in a "bad" neighborhood and I think he just got nervous going to a residential neighborhood after dark. Hotels are easy for these guys to work out of but god knows what they have to deal with in other places.

My neighborhood is not bad, and it was daylight. There were other issues during our communications that are concerning, but I was not going to discuss those in public.

He could have parked, as @purplekow suggests, text me, and I would have walked out to escort him if he was feeling unsafe. There is a chance that he never came, some friend told him it was unsafe when he heard it was on the other side of the Anacostia, and he decided to let me down making that lame excuse.

I wondered if you were "East of the River". He probably should have figured that out from the address, but some people have trouble getting a big picture from GPS and many people never really master more than a little of the DC area. I have a friend who lives in Hillcrest and even at night I've had no problems around there and certainly other neighborhoods around there are just fine. I had a similar experience when I was living in a gentrifying residential neighborhood in another city--the guy was directionally clueless and then didn't stay long--clearly freaked about the area.

Terrible excuse. Sorry it happened like that. Even if escrot deems neighbourhood not up to his safety standards he could have called to cancel, or as suggested, call to discuss alternative location! And in the days of google maps and earth.....this really doesn't hold much water!

I think he should have cancelled earlier in that case. There is no excuse I can figure it out. Even if he is afraid of my neighbors he could have canceled immediately when he got scared. No. I texted him 30' after the agreed time and he respond was "sorry about that". I had to ask him "sorry about what? are you canceling?". And then he started his explanations about feeling unsafe, not being from DC, he is moving in in two weeks, he can host me in 2 weeks, he will make me discount. Fuck no. As I said before, the prep communication was challenging and there were a couple of things that added to what happened last night, put him out of my radar.

The city has never been as safe as it is now!

 

Last year I walked from 14th and U to North Capitol Street all the way through Florida Avenue... What a change!

 

@latbear4blk

 

Don't feel bad. He stood up your amigo @Truereview back in 2015.

Damn, good memory!

Can you imagine turning down $300 or whatever he charges for this...

 

As @purplekow wisely suggested why he didn't ask @latbear4blk to walk to his car and pick him up?

The only explanation I have, besides that it is a lie, is that the escort became leery of the meeting for some reason. Perhaps he was concerned with the client, but if that were the case, why not just be honest about it and say the I changed my mine, I am concerned that we will not be a good match and apologize for any inconvenience.

I mean, you're being a bit obtuse here. DC has gotten A LOT better over the past 10 years, but there's still areas I wouldn't venture into. The fact that you're over in Anacostia, which is getting better, but still has a terrible reputation for being very unsafe to this day. I've been in DC when 14th Street had hookers on every corner and Shaw was considered dangerous, but now it's yuppie heaven. Your part of town most people are still very wary about, especially young white people.

 

Now the fact that Tommy didn't call or text you until after the agreed time is unacceptable, so I agree he should be dinged on that and he should looked up where you live or called you when he got to your area and told you before the appointment. I still think he chose the right thing for himself (if he wasn't lying) that he didn't put himself in a situation where he did not feel comfortable being in.
