I recently met a SP new to me and also relatively new to the biz, hence I am using an alias.  I would like to see her again on Valentine’s Day but doing a whole dinner kind of thing is not where I am currently financially.  I would like to spend an hour with her and that is a standard item on her website.

But this is Valentine’s Day and I could imagine her getting a long booking and being blocked by my hour long session.  She knows I write reviews and I did write a (stellar) review of her for our first meeting.  I see this as a worst case scenario: she accepts my booking and and another client comes along and she is wary  to cancel me because of what I might put in a review.  Let me say that I would not hold that against her; it's not that I don't value my time, but because this is a consideration I have thought through in advance.

I am thinking about being very transparent and saying everything I have said here — but would that still put her in an unnecessarily awkward position?   As noted she is still new in this biz so while it’s 100% up to her to run her biz as she sees fit,  I still don’t want to be a problem client.

For context, I usually spend Valentine's Day alone and this year I wanted to do something less monastic.
