A thread on another forum got me to wondering about this again. I have never received a thank-you text or email from a provider, or just a text or email saying she had fun/a good time/appreciated the money.

Are you one of those people who doesn't trust anyone under 65?  

and over 65 is somehow worse than under 65. Not a legitimate concern, I suppose.  

I get messages from a couple gals I see-and some I don't hear from.   Depends upon the gal-nothing to do with your age!

I'm not quite 65, but providers seem to enjoy my company and I've never been turned down when I ask for a 2nd etc date.  But very few have sent me any kind of "thank you" on their own.  When I send them a thank-you, they always reciprocate, but I can count on one hand the times a provider has thanked me first.  Some just don't do that kind of thing.  

but at times she beats me to the punch.

I've texted girls or their agencies and gotten replies but not one has ever initiated a thank you.

GaGambler had me feeling like a leper.

Maybe you sample size isn't large enough.

MrFisher has sent texts first, NoGreenBorderedEnvelope said very few, and Erik_S has received none.  

That's a great suggestion, mrfisher!

I've seen a few of the chicks Don has reviewed - some of them numerous times -  and I agree....they are not going to be flirty or say thank you after you leave. But I agree with Gambler, if you see a bunch more, a certain percentage will express their appreciation.  

if you are going to finance this expedition. count me in.

I get Christmas cards from my bank.  

If it is someone I haven't seen very often and don't know his 'situation at home' I won't do a followup. If I know it is ok to send a thank you via text or email, I often will. If it's someone I see all the time, I may or may not - just depends on an urge to say how much I like having him, 'cause I would be happy telling them everyday that I like to have them..  

I had one thanking me, thought the sex was really good.  Another indicated i made it to her favorite list and would try to make time for me whenever i called, assuming i give her enough lead time. I consider myself just average and try ti be considerate if then

I have received a thank you message from several ladies.  Never a word about appreciating the money and I would not want her to.

Don leant me his Centurion Card for the purposes of this little experiment. I am sure there is plenty of room on it for you too. lol

NO!  
I am the one who is grateful and I don't send any notes.  I guess my reviews (when positive) count.

I'm like mrfisher, I like to send a quick email after the session letting her know how much I enjoyed our time together. I've also had a few send a text or email even before I did. One even gave me a nice card as I was leaving.

The simple answer is that true atfs generally always send a thank you. With everyone else, almost never.  

I have always found it to be a professional courtesy to follow up with an email, or phone text to say, "thank you!"
Sometimes I keep in touch & will send a sexy photo to hopefully bring a smile to their face.  IDK, but from what I hear I am a rare breed & they don't make them, like me anymore.  lol Smile 4 me!  

If you have a business relationship with a provider, then I wouldn't expect much of a "thank you" from a provider. Seems that the personal touch in business has diminished significantly in the last few years and I've been in sales/customer service/retail ops for decades. I still strive for the personal touch with my customers and that has lead to significantly increased sales opportunities -- but not with all of them. Some appreciate the personal touch and some are just too busy/harried/underpaid-and-overworked.

I always thank them, especially my ATF,  by text within a few minutes knowing they will usually have the time to read it.  

I have received an unsolicited "thank you" perhaps once in several hundred encounters.

I was with my favorite the other day, and she mentioned what good friends we've become, and it's true. We each know a lot about each other, which gives us more substantial things to talk and laugh about, and we get along great, despite the 34 year age gap.

I usually send a thank you email when I return home / hotel. In most cases, the provider responds with a similar note.

are not the type to say thank you after you leave?

..has more to do with it than age I would think. Most professionals would not contact a client unsolicited.  I usually send a polite note afterword.  If I get a response I figure I am welcome back.  I wouldn't over think this. Jim

I think you're right about that. As I recall, the only providers who ever contacted me unsolicited were ladies I'd seen several times, with whom I'd gotten friendly, and that was only via an email account that they knew was safe.

Dumb ?,  eom?  Means what?

You are the best Lexi

No note but thank you comes with privledges your are granted, example 1st visit from T she wore a quite sun dress and her grace and attitude wowed me. Even to the point I slow to start and T noticed this and though it was my first time.
well great time. Donation plus 25.  Next visit asked to do more. Was allowed. Donation plus tip 25. With each visit more allowed. Dont worry about thank note or text. Action is the best thank you.

It's a legacy of the previous version of this forum where you had to click on the subject line to see the body of the text.  But since the message was so short it fit in the subject line and the EOM was to tell you not to bother to click further because there was no body of text.  It was a click saver.  It's not really useful now.  I'll have to get out of the habit myself.

I can put it on your credit card...

...  send a 'thank you for sharing yourself with me' text after I return home and slip into my bubble bath.  
 There is a lot to be said about showing ones appreciation  and extending the smiles we shared with a simple thank you .

I feel as though If I dont Ive been very rude to someone who has hosted my company, paid me well, and has tried to provide for my pleasure, as well.  

Occasionally, if I have been particularly good, my wife says something nice. (But I am not as charming as my friend Mr. Fisher)..

When I get a thank you from the man I have seen, it's just another perk for me. I know I've deserved my pay and have made him happy.  

Recently I saw a girl who somehow didn't seem like the one I'd texted. Something about her tone. Nothing wrong with it, I was just a little curious. After our encounter I texted a request for a P411 Okay and I got back a response that I finally realized was boilerplate. It was *very* friendly and I know she was trying to enhance the mood and encourage me to come back, but, sheesh.

Re: Thanks!
GaGambler had me feeling like a leper.  
   
 If I send a text thanking her, I'll get a reciprocal thank-you. If I send a joking text or such when it's been awhile, I'll get a friendly reply, although I don't do that without cause.  
   
 I thought it might be the age of providers I see, which is 25-33+ years old. I guess not.  
   
 I have a really good relationship with my current favorite, and have had a lot of fun (and perceived the lady did, too) with one-time providers.  
   
 I find it interesting that most don't seem to send thank-you's. I send every customer an email when he orders, thanking him for the order, letting him know when it will ship and when he can expect it to arrive. If the item is expensive, which they usually are, I'll call to let him know that it will be sent signature required, and to see if he needs it shipped somewhere else. Finally, after he's received the item, I email to make sure he's happy with it. A thank-you text seems like a minor effort by comparison.

Sending and receiving "thank you" notes depends a lot on the lady (and on the gentleman).  When I give my "gift" before a service, it is always inside a "Thank you" card.  If I have been emailing to texting the lady, I usually follow with an email or text.  Often this is reciprocated.  The spontaneous notes I get from providers are often ladies I have seen multiple times...ones who I believe, feel "safe" in encounters with me (although I try to make ALL the ladies I see feel safe in my presence).  Often the note writers also tend to be the more mature providers.  I have seen providers from 18 to 58.  The ones that are 40+ are more often the ones who will contact me outside of the immediate period before or after an appointment.  I realize this is sometimes to drum up more business for late, but sometimes it is just to keep in touch.  I have become friends with some of them outside of the hobby, both in the not so real world of Facebook, and also in the real world of civvie life.

I always send the providers a thank you message via text if I had good time. They almost always send me a response thanking me too. I also have received thank you note but this is rare. But I have established a regular relationship with a lot of them( I have been lobbying for 6 years) and I've seen a few regularly. Some have sent me hello messages just to chat. A few would send me "hey there" message if they are in the area.

Please and, "Thank you"

I always send a thank you, but rarely contact my clients. I cannot keep straight who has privacy and who does not. Many clients do not want any kind of "trail". Snoopy wives, unsecure work emails, etc. I have had friendly notes returned with "please do not contact me, my wife sees my phone".

That's a good point.
