I will NOT book more than 1 hour with a NEW POTENTIAL client.
UNLESS we have ALREADY gotten to know each other
through Emails or phone calls or SOMETHING.

I understand that ladies have the right to set whatever mins they what but my take is that I do all my visits during the day since it is impossible to do anything in the evenings. I don't even consider providers with 2 hours mins because I can't find the time to be away from my office for that long of a block of time. On a few occasions I have had providers make exceptions but if that is what they want to do just move on to someone else. I know I can't be the only one with time issues.

I wonder how many guys stay for the full 2 hours. Some people just aren't that interesting, client and provider alike.

and know that uncomfortable feeling myself. When a gentlemen asks for a longer first date I am always in suspense wondering how well we will get along. Good conversation on the phone and a few e-mails helps get some feel of the person but chemistry is something of a wait and see till you meet.

The one hour date is priced higher than the multiple hour date. If a gentleman wants to do more than one hour after we meet and I have the time I offer the better rate. On the gentleman's part he needs to be prepared.

I will only book 1 or 2 hrs on the first date, either is fine with me.  I do not book longer time periods on the first date.  I have had many requests for all nighters from prospective dates that I haven't met previously decline every time because I think any longer than two hours would not be worth the compensation if I do not click with the client in question.

It is a deal breaker for me.  Every lady has a right to set her own rates and limits, but I will not pay for two hours when there is a chance that I will be leaving early due to lack of chemistry.  There is a beautiful lady who I have not reached out to for this very reason.  I never feel comfortable asking for a rate that is not published, nor do I negotiate or haggle.  I feel it is bad form.

I think some girls set a 2 hour minimum as a disingenuous way to charge more money in the hopes that the client doesn't use the full time allotted. With that said, men are free to ignore such disingenuous ladies. I know I do.

Sometimes I require a two hour minimum to certain outcalls. If my drive is too long then i consider it not worth it to book 1 hour. I believe most women, if that is not the case....may consider your request even if their ad or website says 2 hour minimum, but if you do not ask, you will not get. I am going to enter back into the professional world soon and when I do I am going to become very much more selective and require two hour minimums....because I am only going to book a few people a week. There is a large picture for everything. Maybe some women, even though they do this for a living, have that requirement because they need it so they can feel comfortable and get to know you, etc. You hit the nail on the head when you said it is their decision...and that decision is not always out of greed but what works for their carreer, life, family, selectivity, etc. Those are my thoughts.

I agree, let's see if we click...

I would even go shorter for a "meet and greet" if I can.
If we don't click, you can not force it.  So then, I'm basically giving a "nice to meet you" tip.

I don't book more than 30 mins for the first visit.  Afterwards, it's longer and more often (That's the BEST tip to give in my book).

The providers that click with me have the pleasure of multiple repeat visits and referrals (I AM top 10 reviewer).  I enjoy their time and they enjoy mine so they're simply put into my budget.   A couple, I've been 'friends" with for years.
