In my experience in being with a few of the
agency gals, I have noticed that many make
their appearance, go through the "motions" and
leave like they have a train to catch. Obviously,
making the routine phone call when they recive their donation. I feel like I didn't even get a
chance to chat with them. I wonder if I lean more
toward independents if they would just sit and
chat awhile and maybe have a drink together before they even start the clock before the "date" officially begins. I often think that
this would make for a more enjoyable time together for both of us during our time together.
Taking things at a slower pace could also lead
toward more repeat customers. Are most independents likely to agree with me on this
or does this vary with providers?

No, most won't, we are paid for our time.

"I wonder if I lean more toward independents if they would just sit and chat awhile and maybe have a drink together before they even start the clock before the "date" officially begins. I often think that this would make for a more enjoyable time together for both of us during our time together."

Yes, it makes for a more enjoyable time together, which is why you see rates for 90-minute, two hour, dinner dates and even longer.

You might try it sometime!  It sounds as if you'd like it!

I usually check out Ter reviews so thoroughly that the lady I choose is sure to be high on performance but the amount of time alotted for a hour seems to be a ymmv. I have rarely received more than a hour for a hour appointment with a agency however one of my favorites with a agency who I visit often usually gives me some extra time.The most she has ever given me was 45 extra minutes . Note I am a repeat and  repeat customer so much so that the person who answers the phone chuckles sometimes when I visit 24 hours after I left. If I feel rushed at all with a provider I don't go back no matter how good the performance. Everyone is different and thanks to TER we can search for what experience we are looking for.I would think if you are looking for a true GF experience you either have to get a real GF or definitely plan for longer than one hour dates.. I keep my dates to a hour because I already have a GF and I am just there for the variety of sensual pleasures and a lot of small talk isn't what I am looking  for.If I want more than a hour I see two different providers in the same afternoon. Overall in my experience if you are going to get a few extra minutes it will usually be a INDY if she is not falling behind on her schedule.. Only once I had a INDY call me hours after our appointment and she was off for the night and asked me to bring over some of the fine wine I had told her I collected.. I went over and chit chatted for a couple hours and shared some talk and spirits but she wouldn't give me any freebies.. LOL I didn't expect her to but I would have felt like a fool if I didn't ask.

I know too many providers out there that the minute they open the door, their timer starts...and like clockork, when you have 5 minutes left on the clock, they tell you its time to wrap things up and the shuts at the 60 minute mark.  If thats the case, why not just carry a timer around with you, that way you wont have to watch the clock...it will DING when his time up!

Can you MECHANICAL?  C'mon, nobody wants to feel like they are on an assembly line...would you?  15-20 minutes is not going to kill anyone to get to know the person you are about to bed...I think we can all agree a little knowledge makes for a more rememerable session.

You might try it sometime!  You may like it.

That is the only guarantee to have more time.

I find a quick get to know you and then play until the first cup is served plan works best for me.  Then we chat as we both recover and get ready for round two.  

This makes you both more comfortable with each other and usually improves round two due to a connection being strengthened.

Talking too much before playing sometimes makes ladies nervous for fear you are LE trying to get them to say something incriminating.

Good Luck and Good Hobbying!

For many guys a booking isn't just about sex, even a one hour booking.  They will happily have one cup because that's all they can manage and will chat before and after.  But they are paying for the full hour or whatever, not just the 'action' time.

I second what Sola says, chatting can make it more enjoyable for everybody, it's more relaxed and like a real date.  But if that's what you want you have to pay for it.  Of course indies have more control over their schedule and could be more flexible but you are paying for her time and intending to stay longer than you've paid for could be seen as trying to take advantage.

Dinner dates are great because they allow for all the non-sexual 'date' stuff but without paying the full rate for the dinner/drinks time.

Ann, if you want to drum up business, run an ad. Its really bad form though to attempt to drum up business by stepping on the back of another provider.

I have to agree with Sola. I don't mind when time runs over from time to time. Its no big deal. What I don't like, is when a man simply assumes that 60 minutes automatically means 70-75 minutes.

Think of that extra 10-15 minutes like that extra gallon of gas in your tank when the needle is sitting on empty. You know its there if you need it, and there is no harm tapping into it from time to time. But if you get in the habit of relying on it every time you fill up, one of these days your car will leave you on the side of the road. Likewise, when I have a gentleman who assumes he's always welcome to stay longer, he will eventually find that I have stopped returning his calls.

Its perfectly reasonable to want to get to know a lady before nosediving into bed together. Its not realistic though, to expect that a one hour date means an hour and a half.

On a lighter note though - I have to applaud the original poster's optimism! If you find it irksome to give up 10 minutes out of 60 for talking, then I have to admire your stamina if you are making full use of the remaining 50!

Book for a longer date!......

It's like going to a restaurant, eating a few appetizers, then dinner,
then you get the bill and state you thought the appetizers were FREE!

Sassy,

Take a moment to read my reviews.  In nearly four years not one man has ever accused me of being a clock watcher, and certainly not "MECHANICAL".

How I manage my time is my business.  How you manage yours is yours.  What I have issue with is a gentleman who wants more time yet doesn't want to pay for it.  IF they get it they should be appreciative, not simply assuming and expecting that that is how it will be.

Would you expect your attorney to present the preamble for free?
Would you expect your doctor not to charge for the time it took to get your medical hx?
While it may not be a popular position the fact is it is my time as well and I do have other places to be.  I work a full-time job and have fun with you guys!
The women here have: jobs, children, and other obligations, please respect their time.

I also like the way you look and the way you've been reviewed.

So....echoing my Washingtonian compadre......when are you coming to DC??? *wink*

I completely agree. I have a few gentleme who like to meet at about 4 pm. They know I pick my kids up and they know they are out the door at 5. While I love spending time with them my priority is my children and picking them up on time. They understand it's not about them being on any assembly line. It's about respecting boundaries and the other things I have going on in MY life that do not include this.  I have given extra time infrequently, usually if I'm just really enjoying myself ymmv, or if I've nothing left to do. If conversation is stimulating and I get a good vibe from the individual then at times they may get extra time but never expect that second or third cup to come at 5 till.

He crawled out one minute before the time was up.  Should I have dragged him back in?

I agree with slow but mix it with really fast, she'll love the feel!

It's bad form to criticize another provider, particularly on a public message board, no matter how you feel about her business practices.

If I book an hour with you an hour, I can expect 75-80 hours of pleasure, WOW!!!

Of course, what happens when you have only a half-hour between appointments, or have a real life commitments (picking up kids from schools, a date, dinner with your SO, etc), would you really be so accommodating if I hung around for awhile?!?

Best practice for the guys is to be conscience of the time, and pace themselves.  I am a firm believer in "respecting the ladies time".

As for this comment, I been told that my time was up by many women who I would never describe as MECHANICAL.  I also left with a smile!

It's very simple.  If 1 hour isn't enough for you to do what you want, book for longer.  I book or 1 hour because 30 minutes would make me have to rush.  I never use up the whole hour on the main event, leaving me time to get to know the provider.  

My ATF, an indie, recently offered to give me extra time for free because we get along really well and she had some time before her next appointment.  Instead, I took her out for a light meal and we had a great conversation.  However, I don't expect this as part of the regular service and will always assume that 1 hour = 1 hour.  Period.

It is in very poor taste to slam another provider like that, especially when she is bragging how she gives her time away for free, so should everyone else? That is very ignorant.

Don't get me wrong, I love it if a lady is willing to throw in a little extra time, but also the guy should be willing to book more if he really needs it. I normally always book at least 90 minutes, 1 hour is just too short.

No I wouldn't expect an attorney to donote their time; however many attorneys charge in quarter hours so when you call them and only spend 5-7 minutes on the phone they are charging you for 15 minutes...everyone's time is important yet how many times do we complain about going to a doctor's office for an appointment and have to wait 15 or 30 minutes past the appointment time to be seen.

One provider who ran late to her incall gave me a discount because she was late. I wasn't expecting it but it was appreciated. I've been with some providers who ran over and didn't charge or ask for greater donation and they were the ones I've seen again although I am concious of the extended time (10 - 15 minutes). However, I agree it should not be expected that time will extend longer and this should be handled tactfully. On the flip side many times a hobbyist has booked an hour and is headed out the door within half an hour.
