Discounts v. Tips v. Rates

Hopefully not in the way of a tip.

And on the flip side, gents who are the recipients of such time are close enough with the lady that I think they also understand what a meeting is or isn't.

Not surprised.

Why would you not be surprised at that? I don't ask for extra time and don't expect any and surely, don't hang around til the lady has to ask me to leave.

Sydney, you have a valid point but it just confirms my feeling that a Provider is a professional on par with doctors and lawyers. You may feel that Providers are even above them in service. I'm not sure about your opinion on that but wouldn't argue the point either way.

The service providers give is highly intimate, for sure. But is it any more intimate than a doc poking around your insides or a lawyer poking around in your secrets?

I don't like using the words "lawyer" and "poking" in the same sentence.

Not that I've never done it. But it did get confusing.

I had a similar conversation with a friend recently (who may drop in here). He has mainly been following the sugar baby route recently (after a particularly nasty experience with an escort/pimp) where the compensation patterns are often ongoing as opposed to per meeting.

Candidly, the form, frequency or amount is not really the issue to me. You find a lady (or ladies) with whom you are compatible and work out some kind of a deal based on your mutual expectations regarding frequency of meetings and degree of involvement. Seems I've been doing that with women since my teens. (And please, no cracks about how long that's been.) The escort world is more oriented towards posted prices, the SD world less so. but a variety of arrangements prevail in both.

If that was aimed at my initial comment, then you've spent too much time analyzing to see that there was just a simple basic question in there. If it wasn't (aimed at me) then I have no idea who your initial comment was aimed at because no-one else had responded to SR's post at that point. Either way, I don't really care what you think about me enough to go back and explain...or to comment further on this.

I understood what she she was trying to say Camille. I think your response was too harsh. You know, 'tis the season...

Relax Camille it's the holiday season and gifts are flying. You appear to be a beautiful woman and your reviews are great. I see no issue with you getting tips

I never expect a tip and i feel it would b rude to even mention expecting one
Its just pure joy when u do get one as to me its a sincere form of flattery IT MEANS YA REALLY REALLY LIKED IT!! mmmm

Totally and completely agree!

I have been on every side of the fence as far as money is concerned. I know how hard it can be to make it, and I also know how easy it is to come by. Now that I am in the latter, but still strongly feel the effects of the former, I do tip! But, my SO still tips way more then me, especially when it involves a pretty thing!

Again, like Sweet n little said, tips are never expected. I do understand how hard it can be to make the money.....also the reason why I run specials. When I do specials, I never, ever expect a tip to equal my full price. Actually, it would upset me because then I know you didn't take advantage of a special I was offering you.

I'm sorry if you felt like you got caught in between my comments. I was trying to explain to Flwrite and Rudyard that I knew that random acts of kindness do happen. When I said "why analyze...." it was more of a statement than a question that I blurted out. All my life I thought gifts had strings or promises attached to them. Just in this past year I have learned differently. Again, I am sorry if you thought my statement was aimed at you. I guess it was aimed at no one in particular, everybody in general.

With all due respect, If a guy made that statement because of a girls rates, we would jump right down his throat. That's not very nice to say. Every woman that has ever set a rate considers many things when she does so. I personally don't think she deserves to be called names any more than someone in a higher price range. Come on now! Be nice....


Oh, and I have no idea what you guys were arguing about, I just saw that and it bothered me. Sorry!

Totally agree.

I absolutely cannot stand it when a provider who charges more (say $500) either states or implies that a provider who charges less (say $250) is somehow inferior to her. That is utter crap! Every provider is an individual and every interaction is unique.

That sort of mindset is a hyper-materialization of humanity to the nth degree and IMHO, morally repugnant.
