Who is ultimately to blame? The idiot or the thief?
The Situation:
I am in Orlando on business from Dallas for 2 evenings. I took a look at this site and P411. I found a potential playmate in Angelina Caprise from P411. I contacted her through the website my first night in Orlando. We considered our financial situations and agreed upon a donation for her time the following evening where she would meet me at my hotel after one of her "business appointments in the general vicinity. The time she estimated was between 8:00pm - 9:00pm "leaning closer to 9:00pm". She called the day of our scheduled appointment 5:45pm and we decided on 9:00pm which was perfect since I would be finishing up a dinner meeting with a legitimate business associate. We spoke again at 8:10pm where directions were provided and she said I will be there at 9:00pm. I told her sounds great, feel free to drive slow in case my dinner is running a little late. She laughs.
The Problem:
15 minutes later (8:25pm) - I receive two phone calls and 2 text messages saying "I am here and am about to leave. I excuse myself to the bathroom and call her. I ask how/why she is there so early and she said she was closer than she originally thought. Fortunately the restaurant I was at was only a 5 minute walk from the hotel so I sneak out of the restaurant and meet her outside the hotel. She is gorgeous (just like her pictures). I ask her to wait until our scheduled appointment time (9:00pm).
The Mistake:
As an act of good faith...and poor judgement I give her half of the agreed upon donation as an act of good faith. She said she would wait until 9:00pm.
Trying to Solve the Problem:
I rush back to the restaurant where I speed the dinner along at a lightening pace. At 8:59pm I send her a text letting her know I am in route to the hotel. She responds by saying she left 15 minutes ago. I call her and we talk on the phone where I ask her to come back since she is still "in the area" and remind her our agreed upon time was 9:00pm. She provides excuses like ("I am tired...you have to give me an incentive "i.e. more $") After 10 minutes of pointless conversation she makes her intention clear that she is not coming back.
You be the judge:
So who is really in the wrong here. The idiot - Me for making a "good faith gesture" which was obviously misplaced? Or the girl that took the money and ran?
My thoughts:
Of course, I realize my stupid contribution to the situation but ultimately feel like the victim here. Maybe I got swept up in the Disney World Hype...is there not an honest working girl in the Orlando area? If so it apparently was not this one.
Take care all and stay safe. Please feel free to PM or respond to this post with your comments. Obviously I will now be available the rest of the evening...ha
