There is a very fine line between being honest , bending the truth , being unkind or flat out just being a jerk .
Reading your reviews , I wouldn't say you are a jerk .... but here is an example maybe why
your reviews don't come across very well .
In one review you wrote - "I got flaked on by 3 different providers in the middle of a non busy week, which is odd."
I am sorry , but based on what are YOU deciding that it is a non busy week ?
Also regardless what you think is a busy week or not busy week ....... doesn't mean the lady doesn't maybe have other "busy things" to do.
We are people too. Our lives don't revolve going from meeting to meeting .
Now flaking out is a whole different issue. and NOT ok for a lady to flake unless she was in jail ,
in the hospital or dead .
So was it a no show/no cancel ( that is flake ) , or just cancel . There is a difference .
A few of my pet peeves in a review is when gents are inconsistent ,complain about things just to complain or give back hand compliments .
Things like - "If you have no problem with a BBW, then she is the one for you"
Unless the lady doesn't advertise as a BBW or if she doesn't look like her photos , well then such a comment isn't really necessary.
In one review you say - "She is a serious talker"
Then you say - "I was kind of talkative myself so she really didn't do it for too long. "
Then you end with - " I will try her again with less chit chat "
Maybe I am wrong , but it comes across as you complaining about the chit chat .
Where as in another review you wrote about the chit chat in a positive way .
So is chit chat good or bad ? Some gents like it , some don't , but how are we suppose to know ?
Chit chat can be very important to help break the ice , feel more comfortable and even help create a better connection between 2 people ...... making other things better too.
If a gent doesn't want chit chat , then in a polite way just tell your lady what you prefer , instead of the lady finding out in a review that you didn't want chit chat.
I don't know what exactly happened , but I have had reviews written about me where the gent
was kinda complaining about my chit chat ...... but he fails to mention that I stayed over my time because of that or that HE was asking me a million questions causing that chit chat to happen .
Not saying that is what you did , this is just an example. since my posts are about bringing up issues that others ( lurkers and posters ) may have or related to the OP's subject , not just answering your specific issue.
Hoping more then one person can grow and learn from my posts , or have some type of positive take away from my posts .
Side bar - reason why my posts get a bit long . Of course one doesn't have to read my posts if they feel my posts are too long
Since I don't exceed TER's per post word limit , I guess TER doesn't see my posts as too long *wink wink*
So I see that your last 2 reviews have improved in the way you describe ladies performance.
That's cool.
Now regarding looks , while I am all for beauty is in the eye of the beholder .
and while I am all for changing the looks score system to something like-
"Looks better then photo"
"Looks like photo"
" Looks almost like photo "
"Looks nothing like photo "
This way each person can look at the ladies photo and make up their own mind about the "rating number " for each lady ....... rather then complaining - well I don't think everyone can be a 10 .
or I wouldn't rate her a 9
Not to talk about that one mans 5 can be another mans 10
One reason numbers can be an issue.
For appearance -
Many gents say that a 7 score in looks is a great score , but then on the flip side of that they turn
around and make an ISO post or do a search for 8- 10 only .
Not saying all gents do that , but many do .
So ladies who get anything less then an 8 , may fall off the search and that is hurtful to her business......
especially when the lady looks like her photo .
Cause lets be honest , what gents puts a 5 ( or less ) or even a 6 while making a search ???
While every person has their own idea of how they set their bar score for appearance , I think your bar isn't exactly in the right place.
Kinda like if you see a photo of lets say - Tayra Banks . And you think wow she is a 10 .
but in person although she still looks great , you can see a few physical flaws , but her personalty
and how she treats you makes you kinda forget about some imperfections ( lets be honest . no one is perfect ) and you still look at her and see a 10 .
Does this make sense ? I hope so .
Nothing wrong with being honest , Just be careful of that fine line.
No need to attack the OP . He is expressing his problem , is looking for a solution and he is trying to do the right thing .......which is more then I can say about some people here.
All the best

I will be staying on the strip around Thanksgiving so I decided to try and set up seeing a lady or 2 while in town. I've seen a few ladies in various different locations and posted as honestly as I could on this site about the experiences.
While trying to set up for my incoming trip I've contacted a few ladies who honestly told me after checking my reviews that they would not see me because of what i've posted in the past for fear of me posting similar reviews which could hurt there business. The last thing I ever tried to do was make things harder for the ladies. I just tried to be as honest as possible.
I'm wondering what is the best way to convince ladies that I'm not a jerk trying to mess with there business and who would be interested in meeting while I'm in town to give me a chance to prove this?
