Good luck

Yeah I have to agree, just like any kind of dealings with someone over a period of time, you develope a relationship. Even a business relationship. Sounds like you miss her and her services, the money is the reason you're upset. And its not that much money, it's the principle. Even so, since you've let this bother you enough to start a thread. Going back will just cause more resentment, more stressful, requiring more massage work. You're screwed dude... lol.
Seriously though, talk to her, work out a deal that's beneficial to both of you, or find another massage girl and start all over again.
Good Luck

^^^^^ Agree with Hardhat here. After starting this tread, if she see's or hears about it, your screwed and tattooed sweetie.

THIS is what started it. Even though you were giving her 130(tip included) you became less of a regular because of her increase. Therefore she saw no need to grandfather you. Might as well move on.....

But when I originally asked about the 1.5 rate....she specifically said "for you, 110".....which is why I saw her sometimes 3 times in two weeks.......

Lets do the math on this......$110x3=$330x2=$660/month from me. Now compare that to the once a month I started to see her at 130......

See, at 110, she set herself apart from others but at 130-150, she falls back to the pack with the other massuses......

I didnt ask for a special rate, she offered it to me.

When offered...she should of stuck by that agreement. I'm sorry, but I'd move on.

Sounds like you are more upset that she's treating you like everyone else when you think, in your sole opinion, that you should be treated differently. But, if that's enough to keep you from going back then that's entirely your call. No one here can tell you to pay more or to stay away. But despite being a loyal customer you are a customer to her, nothing more. Once you accept that you can then decide if the service and familiarity is worth what everyone else pays for it.

3 yrs and she increases
fee sounds legit because
of inflation. Everything in
society goes "up".
If you never got a raise at
work or didn't get compensated
for overtime, you would be pissed.
You are a loyal, hard worker that
has never missed work and you
deserve a raise.
She gave herself a deserved increase.
Fair enough.

Black, you tricked yourself into thinking you were special and now you're finding out that you're not. Move on. It's just a fucking massage man.

I'm paying high level finance types with grad degrees in the energy industry the same today as I was making at their level in 2005. Should the stock market end this 5 year run, my belief is you will see the recent push to 300 by so many providers get reversed.

Stock goes up and down,
Wage increases are
done by inflation.

I personally don't haggle with the ladies regarding their prices. If it's too high, I just don't see her. StickyFingers is right that you tricked yourself into believing you were special. She actually did her job very well. We all have our rates we are willing to pay and it seems like you hit your ceiling where it isn't worth it to you. Just find another lady or just pay her rate. She got popular and increased her rates accordingly. Nature of the game. You're not wrong to feel like you do, but she's not wrong for increasing her rate for your either. If she did the math like you did, she'd realize it's more to her benefit to keep you at your old rate..... or she has 10 guys just like you that are willing to pay her new rate and it's worth it to her to lose you. Never know.
