Great topic. Thank you for bringing this up, Haley.
For many years, I advertised a phone number. It was not typically an issue, as gentlemen were respectable and provided appropriate information and introductions via telephone/text. Over the last few years however, I noticed a substantial increase of time wasters via phone/text, while serious inquiries were handled through email only. People would call just to chat or hear a voice. This was especially true as I began assisting other ladies. Not sure if newer ladies appeared inexperienced or as a target, but there was an increase of useless, time wasting calls/text. As such, I made the decision to use email only for the initial introductions/communications.
Everything has been just fine for the most part. The majority of gentlemen, once they have been screened and do have a number, respect your time. That is the most important. Telephone/text communication has a way of being too invasive sometimes or people can get carried away with inappropriate and unnecessary chit chat throughout the entire day and night. Totally unacceptable. Email tends to weed out these time wasters from what I have noticed and allows you to timely check your correspondence when it is good for you without the constant interruption of a beeping/chirping/vibrating (although vibrating can be fun) cel phone. Often when you are out or with family/friends, that is coincidentally when your phone will go off or you will receive these time wasting calls.
Gentlemen, just to be clear, I am certainly not complaining about the phone calls/texts. This only applies when the calls/texts are outside of the scope of setting an appointment, confirming an appointment, or other relationship. When we get a text from a new number/unknown number saying "what's up" or "hey" repeatedly, or even on a daily basis from a known gent saying "hi, just wanted to chat" this can be invasive and unacceptable, especially at 6:30am! If everyone decided to do that, all of our time would be spent on the phone/texting. Again though, if you have a date set or a known client and every week they text "just checking in hope all is well" or something, that is fine depending upon your relationship with that person. But some people do get carried away and can text constantly for twelve hours a day every day. Totally inappropriate! Others just want additional pictures or information without being screened first, again, totally inappropriate.
In today's technological society, everyone has an email, and in fact, many! They have a work email, a personal email and most have a play email or two. I do not feel any appointments are lost by being "email only." On the contrary though, I do have an older client in his 70s whom I have known for over 15 years. He is old school and will not email whatsoever. He won't even use his GPS to get to ladies' locations because he likes to limit any tracking as much as possible. He enlists my services to meet new ladies, and I often wonder how he would otherwise. But he is really an isolated or very rare example.
Again, thanks for bringing this up. I am curious to see the other responses.
