Hey girls, does it bother you when "friends" request discounts when you're not advertising a special? Even repeatedly? If the guy asks me once and I say no, I'm not running a special this week, and he agrees to see me at regular rate, I'm OK with that. If he asks me several times, I decide not to see him! I figure he's not upscale and he oughta go to Ponce! Or does this make me uppity??

If you think $250 is pocket change, try to fork it over every couple of weeks. Go to ponce? I think thats a little overboard, and you should retract that statement.

I might understand if he asks one time (maybe he forgot your special was over....checking to see if you have a special....checking to see if you give discounted rates for regular visits...etc...)  However, for your "male friend(s)" to continually ask you to try and change your mind is rude and if you don't like putting up with rude men tell him "see ya...don't call me...and don't wait for me to call you"...then let your close friends no who the rude man is in a pvt email (hint hint) LOL....take care!  Raven

I don't mind if someone inquires as to whether or not I'm running a special ONCE, but if the question is posed several times, it becomes not only annoying, but offensive.  I usually won't see a "friend" that repeatedly asks me for a discount as this is a sign of disrespect and I refuse to spend time with anyone, client or not, who is disrespectful.

Damn can't you READ!!??  Point is IF YOU KNOW THE RATE and to keeeep haggling prices reguardless is rude, your not in Mexico...if ya can't afford it then move on.  PERIOD...she is not being UPPITY your just being an A@@

This is not an auction. You are not bidding and hoping to get the lowest offer. Pay the stated price or go on your merry way. Asking once is enough...at the most. If there is a special the providor will most likely tell you. Don't ask twice or attempt to haggle. The women here deserve more respect than that!

LOLOL you are to much of a sweetie to be uppity ... I agree with you totally ...

I look for special ladies not ladies with specials

Raven,

I have noticed that a majority of your replies on this board are quite hostile and end up with you calling people an A@@ or Ahole.  Your disparaging tone discourages people from giving their opinions or disagreeing with anyone who is a friend of yours.  Just my .02.

In the business world, stores offer speicals for several reasons, one of the main ones, *to attract more customers* and to attract *new customers that may have never ventured inside, so to speak*  Everyone does it to generate business, especially in these flat economic times.  Now, I have never gone into the Mall of Georgia, walked into Nordstom's, and asked for a special price on something that was not marked as part of the sale.  Even if I did, and the clerk said "no, its not on sale," I find it hard to believe I would continue to ask for a special price.  On the other side, if I was a regular customer with someone, we had fun and "clicked," I think a discount is in order if one is a customer that "visits" often.

Well,

This was a question for the "girls" but we guys are throwing in our .02 cents.
First, I have never seen the lovely Ms. Kane, so I do not have a dog in this fight.

From a purely personal stand point, I try to see ladies with some regularity, i.e. I tend to be a regular, not a "Butterfly" for those that know and understand the term.

I presently have a "regular" and she offered me an off the menu "deal".  In exchange for this "deal", I see her quite often and almost exclusively.

I think it really boils down to determining what you (the provider) wants.  If you wish to offer specials, you may find the "ponce" type persons are what respond.  Conversely, if you build a trusting clientel, you find the "deal" works to get and retain quality clients.

Just my .02

I like what you say sweetie. I like to feel special with a special Man too!!

.... all I did was balk at the comment about sending her clients to Ponce. I thought it was crude and uncalled for. Thats MY .02

Considering the personal nature of the business relationship between providders and their friends, I would never be comfortable in asking for a discount.  Same goes for asking about specials.  Just MHO.

I want a provider to be as happy and comfortable with me as possible when we meet.  That's one of the main reasons I like using TER.  I know in advance what to expect and what is expected of me.  That way, our meeting can move on to the personal side without discussion of money.

There is just something that seems a little tacky about it to me.  I am an IT professional and I occasionally do work for friends and relatives, free for small jobs but many for contract rates.  They would never think of asking for a discount because they value my time just as much as I do.

And as far as the price of the services go...  If you need to haggle over $25 or so (a typical discount amount), this is probably not the hobby for you.

In your case Kristi, it would be best to state clearly that, if he values your time, he should not haggle over it.  Surely he wouldn't expect to receive fewer services or a shorter visit just because he's a frend.

Just my 558 lira.

Ha ha, must've struck a nerve with the Ponce thing ... just KIDDING ... That's just how I feel when guys try to talk me down, makes me feel like they look at me as cheap ... so I figure they'd treat me that way ... I have run specials, and I will again, but just haven't had the need to ... it's not MY fault if someone can't pay my rate, which is reasonable IMO ... same reason I buy blue jeans at Wal-Mart instead of Neiman Marcus, knowwhudimean ...

That was such a great explanation!!!!!  Thank you!!!

I concur 150%!!!!.....Great post!!!!

Doesn't sound uppity to me. My opinion is that to ask if there are any specials is fine to ask over and over again is just implying that you don't think the girl is worth as much as she is asking, basically insulting her. Me, I'm poor so I can't afford to see $250 girls, so do I beg them, no. I save my pennies, masturbate, sell some aluminum cans, masturbate, and sell some plasma over on Moreland (near Ponce)(don't masturbate immediately before giving plasma you'll get to weak) then I take my hard earned money and get what I can afford (not on ponce).


Any girls got any specials out there, maybe one day I will even save enough to see Kristi.
