I don't think that most men will find it offensive that you count your money.  Just do it in a lighthearted way. Getting it out of the way just lets everyone relax and have fun.

Count it and tell me if it's wrong.  Wouldn't bother me a bit to Count it .  To me that's like getting upset at a cashier for counting it at a store . Seems to me if someone gets upset it's probley because they trying to short change !

My envelope is always correct, I check, check, double check the amount every time. I would not care, or be offended if you were to count the contents of the envelope in front of me, I know full well what the arrangement is. I always hit the shower after the initial greeting, this does two things for you ladies, it assures you that I am fresh and gives you a few moments out of my field of vision to count the contents.  

 I prefer that you do count the contents, so that you are comfortable and sure it is correct, and now you can concentrate solely on making me happy, which is what I am there for. I already know the contents are correct, I prefer you do as well.

But by all means, you should expect your clients to be grown ups, and they should ensure that the contents are correct.

most ladies count the donation.  I'd rather they did before I leave certainly.  I think once I did make an error, very early in my hobby life, and I took steps to make sure that never happens again.  (The loose bill was in my key pocket where I carry the donation...  Oopps!)  I find envolupes annoying as they don't carry well in casual clothes.  NOW, I count the donation multiple times to be sure I have it correct & then put a couple of paper clips on it to keep it together.    

Once, on a first date...  I was so stunned by her beauty that I took total leave of my senses & forgot to place the donation.  She nicely had a chair placed for my clothes but it was away from the dresser.  Much to my embarrasment, she had to hint before I remembered the gift...   This was also very early in my hobby life & changed the way I do things.      

Typically, with repeat visits, I like to empty my pocket "junk" like I do at home onto the corner of the dresser next to my clothes.  The first thing onto the dresser is the donation & the other stuff on & around it.  When I redress, the donation is silently left behind.  We are not "done" as there is a back & forth of dressing & bathroom before I depart.  While I do not watch the donation once I've dressed, sometimes I see that it's gone or other times not.    

Another embarrassing mistake I made with a Fav was I did not bring my jacket in, a last minute change, and the donation was accidentally left in the car.  I offered to go get it or to give her my keys to go get it...  being a Fav, she declined...  I was scheduled to be her last meeting of the day, it turned out.  She accompanied me out, together but not clingy.  I retrieved the jacket & we clasped hands, kissing lightly & the donation passed hand to hand.  Whew!    

My greatest fear is that I'll forget to give the donation & have to return.  Because I will always make it right.  So many ladies rock my world, how could I not?

Clearly spell out how you want the donation handled, i.e. place donation on dresser immediately upon arrival, for example

I've never ever used an envelope except my very first time
And I did unintentionally short someone once.  
Fortunately I was a regular and after I figured it out...one extra large bill in my pocket...I texted and ran the money to her at her earliest convenience.  
I think providers have every right to count it ou

While it wouldn't stop a date, I don't need to see you counting the cash. Either take the money and go to the bathroom to freshen up and count it there.  

Since I only use 100's it's really easy to count...  Lay the cash on the table, open the draw get an envelope. Put cash in envelope. Put envelope in right pocket (in my case). Drive to hotel. walk in the door. Kiss, and either hand her the envelope or put in on the first flat surface I see and continue into the room or I'll  put it in the bathroom. It just depends on the providers reaction at the beginning of the date. If she's "shy", to me it means she wants to count the cash first. Just go wash your hands and leave the cash there

You ladies have to look out for yourselves and should not feel in any way bad for counting the money prior to the start of the session. Any guy who has put the proper donation in the envelope should not be worried or offended. One provider that I met counted the money told me she had previously been ripped off several times and I had no problem with that. I also do not have a problem if no explanation is given.

I've only had 1 provider count out the envelope contents in front of me. I mentioned that I accidentally dropped the box of condoms somewhere between the metro station and her room, so you could say that it warranted that she double check the donation. I'd seen her before, had references, and hadn't shorted her or anyone else so it's not like I had a reputation of shorting.

I always thought that it was strange that more escorts don't count the contents. My very first appointment, I tried handing the envelope directly to the provider, she just told me to leave it on the nightstand, and she didn't even touch it until after the appointment was over. Thought that was cool that she trusted a 27 year old black man with no references (though I did provide work info) to not short her

Sometimes I try and lay out as few bills but correct donation out. I've got nothing to hide. I'd hate to short change anyone.
