Re: 2 names?!

Sure, everyone uses there real names, especially the providers. Maybe I shoud have included my address, city, state, and zip code also. You can't pick up your phone, or answer an e-mail and ask for an explanation?  I drove an hour into the cities and had no idea you were going to stand me up. Why not just cancel? Some of us like some privacy and confidentiality. Still sorry things did not work out. I would have been happy to give you 2-3 references, you never asked for any.

Thanks

In my opinion you could have at least emailed that there has been a change of plans & you will not be available. OP, I'm glad everything worked out for you in the end.

Khloe;
Have you always provided under this name only? Have you always used real pictures of yourself. If you can honestly answer yes to both, that is great! But that would mean someone else is stealing your pics and/or name periodicly.

You found your way here to this board, you have had some discussion go back and forth about you. Perhaps you can work on getting good reviews and building a possitive reputation and things many go well for you.  

Anonyimty is the most basic requirement for both providers and hobbyists. And most providers and hobbyists I've gotten e-mails from have different names on their e-mail address'. It is only common sence.

You as a provider should appreiciate this and be grateful you are not getting messages from work or personal e-mail addys that may be subject to employer and/or spousal discovery and review.

I'll start a new string to further explain.

I can appreciate how the discrepency spooked you!  It USED to spook me too when [email protected] emailed me but when he called, he was Mike Smith. But, I
never NCNS'd them. It is fairly common in the hobby to have this happen.  In the future,
just remember that  a gent is worried about discretion and his anonymity when this
happens.  And, perhaps is doing it because a provider in the past was less than discreet
with his information. Allow the guy a chance to explain the discrepency...then, you can
still change your mind and cancel if you so choose.  But, at least you are not NCNS'ing.  
Some guys travel a great distance or take an extra long lunch to see a lady and the last
thing they need or want is NCNS or a lady not answering her phone.  It puts you in a
very bad light and hurts your reputation. I am not criticizing you but rather trying to be
helpful.
Have a great day,
Belinda

Dont be a prick..
If you dont understand why that would spook me then your just as airheaded as you seem. It wasnt the email adress and name that came up that were different. It was the name attached to the address and the name he signed as (i.e. [email protected].. comes up as John Doe, signed as Steven). Sorry that was a red flag for me. And yes, I do understand that I should have called or notified him that I wouldnt be seeing him, but I was honestly a little scared.. I dont appreciate NCNS either, so next time I will notify. Its not often that I deny a call. I usually give people the benefit of the doubt, but when he didnt want to call to book either, it just all seemed a little funny.. I think you should understand.
And yes, I have always used MY real pictures. Someone else told me that someone is using my pictures, which I guess is flatering.. LOL. But I have since added more pictures to prove THATS ME!! And also, Ive had 4 good reviews in the past few months so I think Im doing a decent job. As far as name, I used to change my name, I changed it a few times in the begining because Id have an issue or get spooked by everything, but Ive since learned.
