Well, rocket, I'll admit that I was suprised by it under the circumstances, but I do totally agree with you -- very classy.

Katrina, I think everyone here wishes you well.  Making mistakes is just part of life and the never-ending growth process.  The best advice I can offer is to always be true to yourself, and always take responsibility for your actions.

Take care of those two things, and all others will almost always fall into place.  And even when they don't, you'll always be able to live with yourself peacefully knowing you did the best you could.

It snowed out here today where  I live and it is cold. Please everyone be safe out there. Also it gets quite funny when people manipulate conversations in life.Why that is I dont know. I am gonna run a special for $250 this week for people to come see how " my performance is" and make there own opinion of it. Thats what I will do for you guys. Also check  my pictures out on my website. I have updated some.

...and that perhaps you have some growing up to do.  If you are too thin-skinned for such a publicly-scrutinized business as this, maybe you should consider another line of work.

Before you go off wailing about injustice and what-not, I am not attacking you.  You seem like a very nice young woman.  But increasingly, your actions here are speaking volumes.  Public attacks on established hobbyists (veiled or not) are not the path to acceptance in this community, nor will they generate long-term business.

Do not expect to like everybody you meet in life, and do not expect everybody to like you or how you act.  Learn to like yourself -- that is the first step to inner peace.

And remember, you can catch more flies with honey than with vindictive spittle.

I am appreciative of your opinion in this matter. It helps me to see what can be done in the future for buisness. It is a country of freedom and because of that you can have your own opinion. Also perhaps just because certain hobbyist are well respected doesnt put them on a higher pedastal then a human. They will not always be perfect or always have the same actions with everyone. Chemistry plays a big factor in sessions and its not always gonna be perfect. For any offense that I might have brought I do apologize. I only want to learn from my mistakes so that they wont happen again. Thank you for all the feedback. Its helping me grow and learn. I ask this and this only please dont judge before you know. I wouldn't do t hat to you. XOXOXO Katrina Starr

some stones to say.  That is undoubtedly the most mature and humble response I have seen on this board ever.  Outstanding!

I think this is excellent advice and it's too bad she is probably too young to "get it." Now, I do think that she struggles with certain guys from her admitted inexperience in this biz. It's a wonder that she doesn't reach out to some of the other ladies for help. But like your advice says, this is a hit or miss business and if she is "thin-skinned" as her writing suggests than I too would advise her against this business until she is a bit more mature. If she is in fact a 19 y.o. that speaks volumes.

ATLMG,

"Public attacks on established hobbyists (veiled or not) are not the path to acceptance in this community, nor will they generate long-term business."

Well hell man, I didnt know that the "established hobbyists" would blackball the local ladies if they speak out or say something against one of them.  You're acting as if its only 15 to 20 guys in the whole city that do this.  It's like the mob.  I hope you weren't serious with that comment.

MrMight,

Who said anything about blackballing? You stated, "...'established hobbyists' would blackball the local ladies if they speak out or say something against one of them..."  I have no idea where you got that idea.  I'm a big proponent of free speech and spreading truthful information.  But it's a simple fact that providers who get a reputation for unstable or immature behavior do not generate much repeat business.

But when a provider spreads ridiculous lies about a hobbyist on a public forum as a form of damage control to negate an bad review resulting from her attitude and behavior, well, then yes - the paying customers around here WILL speak up and challenge it.

I have no problem identifying BS when I see it, whether it comes from a provider or a hobbyist.

It's for reasons regarding maturity that I rarely see a provider under 25. Some of the teenagers and 20 somethings have made of their minds they can "just lay there" on our dime. Not so.  I say boycott the pretty face/body for a lady whose going make you drool.   looks aside, and I know there are some exceptions, what really does this lady bring to the table? The reviews are mixed and even the good ones sound contrived. Yes, if she got you off, fine. But I would have to have my own experience and that's not likely given that she may be mood prone as some of the reviews suggest.

Don't worry so much about a few reviews that are not to your liking. People are people. Everyone will not hit it off with you, just as you won't always hit it off with everyone you meet. Just concentrate on being yourself-on giving consistently good service the best way you know how. I don't know anyone who is loved by everyone. That's an unrealistic expectation and only serves to set yourself up to feel badly. Hang in there....You have no control over what anyone else says. Accept responsibility for only those things that are true-the rest are not worth your energy to be upset about.....

Advises are like opinions and opinions are like you know what and every has one.

Don't be so eager and applogize for anything and everything, sure way of getting taken advantage of.

if you are sure you did the right thing, it doesn't really matter what others think.

Reviews, take it with a grain of salt, it is subjective, and opinionated and often pandering.

Don't worry, be happy do the best and do what you think is right

There are a large number of hobbyists that choose to not write reviews for one reason or another.  They enjoy their experiances, and savor them in their memories.  You'll never make everyone happy.  Ultimately, your success will be determined, to a large part, by the return rate of your customers.  Those that enjoy your company, will come back to see you again and again.  Those that don't, well that's their problem.

I have refrained from commenting but .....like a few others I couldn't resist any longer. When I first went Indy and had no rep, I decided to take my own course. I made it a point, to make sure guys knew what I was about and what to expect. I then offered to "foot the bill" for a visit with another provider if the gentleman wasn't totally happy with his experience.(*added incentive for both me & the client*) I also have, in the past,asked a gentleman to leave and given his "gift" back. I firmly believe that Atlanta is a huge city and there is a HUGE market for everyone to play in. Bottom line:If a client doesn't feel I am what he is desiring then I do not want him to spend his time, or money, with me. I think that is the best thought I could pass along to anyone new to the business. Just my thoughts... kisses Candace
