Backpage blues....

Well, after reading an article stating that advertising is so important...I decided to suck it up and give backpage another try. I'd really gotten turned off from it because a pimp texted me saying, "he could appreciate a bitch like me" after I posted the first time. But before giving it up completely, I had to give it another go.

So this weekend, I posted again. I got a ton of calls, don't get me wrong...but they were a bunch of time wasters and weirdos that were not screen-able. The problem is I specifically said rs2k or ter whitelist only! One guy even asked me if I do coke! :-S

Now I have the blues...a weekend gone out the window to backpage weirdos and 3am phone calls. Its not a problem that I didn't get a date from the ad. Its a problem that it led to wasted time! I also could have used the $7 on some new nail polish or condoms!

I feel dirty after answering all those calls and reading all those "text convo" written emails. Shame on me!

I know...I know....I should've known better. I guess I'll just have to be patient and lose another pound or two, take a professional photoshoot and get on eros.

First of all you are VERY attractive.  The upper deck may intimidate a few guys, but you are definitely blessed - as the saying goes, different strokes for different fokes.  Skinny isnt' the issue - you have a beautiful shape.  It just needs a little firming and toning.  Go to the gym, work the abs and legs.  Make those awesome legs a little shapelier.

Your rates put you in a top shelf category.  VSOP (very special oh-my-god provider).  Sell that.  I'm sure you are intellengent and a great conversationalist (don't get me wrong that is an important part of who you are and is a plus) but as a hobbyist I am looking for the Total Package.

Good luck sweetie.  Be safe.

You might want to be more specific in your ads.  Along with the RS2K and TER whitelist requirement, you could also add no texts, hours that you'll take calls, "no time wasters", and any other verbage that may discourage such calls.  Good luck with getting your business successfully off the ground.

I don't know about others, but I go to bp to avoid the whole rs2k thing as I am not rs2k verified yet.

When you are in the "provider" side of this business, this is what goes with the territory. Understand the "hobbyist" side is not all warm and fuzzy either. Life is a bowl of cherries---BUT SOMEONE DOES DEAL WITH THE PITS>> Maybe this week will be better. It has to be better than a job where you have to say "would you like to super size that order"?????????

I was thinking about advertising on there too, but it seems like I hear mostly negative things about backpage.  I still may try it.

But girl don't let some bad apples stop you from doing your ads.  Just let them leave you a message or say that you prefer emails instead of calling and texting.  That's. What I do.  But hopefully it gets better and better.  

I think I will try backpage this week.

I do not feel good about Eros.  Many posts are from TS's and it seems girls always post higher prices than they advertise on other sites.

There's a business opportunity out there for someone.  A forum somewhere between the mass crap of bp and the smaller more pre-screened TER forum.

Hey Jordon, speaking with you last week I know you definitely have a brain to go with your beauty. It doesn't matter where you advertise, you're always going to get your weirdos, voice listening jerk-offs, wanna-be pimps and ect.

I agree with both men. Put your foot down on who you want to call "members of certain boards or websites" and No Blocked/Restricted Numbers, No Text Messages and MY thing is NO explicit language.

Any true hobbyist knows that's a big NO-NO. For the ones who don't will have to learn especially when they call asking those big NO-NO questions and wonder why they keep getting the dial tone because they're clearly thinking with the wrong head;)

As far as losing a pound or two just to get on Eros, girl pleasssseeee! You are beautiful in your own ways. Men like different and if he don't like big tah-tahs on a beautiful curvy black woman he can move on...because there are those who do!

I hope this help, you enjoy what you love doing and be happy for who you are.

As Always "Be and Play Safe"

Smooches, DuMore

I agree with DuMore you are beautiful!  I also agree sexy ebony gals with curves and real big natural hooters aren't for everyone ;).  But they are for some. ;).

Well, see here's the thing. The girls on eros are SMOKING HOT! Their rates are higher as mentioned before. Not to sound arrogant, but I'm sure I'm just as high of quality, if not more! BUT! I don't believe in Photoshop/retouching, and since I will be advertising alongside these smoking hotties, I want to make sure I look smoking hot too! I think I look good now, but want to be smoking (excluding retouches!) when I pay for a professional photoshoot and the pricey ad costs on eros. I guess I'm more of a "real pictures" girl...but that doesn't seem to be accepted as much on anything outside of backpage. I've gotta figure something out.....having q battle of my personal preference vs what's right for business.


And also, I need to learn better verbiage! I find myself leaving key words out! Such a rookie lol

You're damn right they're smoking hot - most porn stars and lingerie models are smoking hot by definition. Too bad the girls in those pics don't actually provide...

Jordan, what's right for business is NOT retouching your photos other than possibly minor imperfections. Nothing ticks a guy off more than meeting someone in person who doesn't look as advertised. Having said that, I do like professionally done pictures. There's nothing wrong with highlighting your strong areas and downplaying what you might not like so much. Camera angle, lighting, etc, can make a big difference in pro shoots. So by all means get pro photos taken but post them as you appear without the Photoshop gimmicks. Your future reviews depend on the accuracy of your pics much more than whether you think you look as hot as those other girls. I like the way you think, no BS, just keeping it real. Good insight on your part :-)

There are a few I wouldn't mind.....oh let me hush! Lol. Lets just say a couple girl crushes are on there.

Have not used EROS in quite a while. Too many scam providers. Backpage may stink but we know the listing is current and location is current to give a call to.
