Could someone please shed some light on this type of session?  Are there countless scenerios or is there an industry standard for etiquette on these dates? I'm confused. I would assume the hobbyist is picking up the tab for everything,..... but is he? There is such a wide range in donation proportions requested from provider to provider. Some offer a considerable discount off their hourly donation for a dinner date, but many others offer none or even a higher amount/hour during a 4 hour dinner date than during their regular 1 or 2 hour GFE sessions. Some actually mention serving the food and drink at their incall location, and for this service I could understand the additional overhead, but these are not in all cases the ones I've seen that ask for larger donations/hour for this service. If a lady is being wined and dined at a nice restaurant for half the session, is that really tougher than BJs, and F***ing for the whole 4 hours?

Reinner date/package confusion?

Generally speaking,when on a dinner date package,yes the client picks up the tab for the drinks,dinner and incidentals.The standard for etiquette is to just treat her like you would a civvie girl on a first date.The only difference is that you KNOW you're going to get laid that night! LOL! But personally,I can't see paying a lady an extra 2 or 3 hrs.just to have dinner with me,especially when the meal is on me.But some guys like the whole wine and dine her fantasy of a dinner date and that's cool. I know that in a lot of cases,the more hrs.you book with her,the less per hr.it costs you,whether on a 4 hr.dinner date or a 4 hr.f*ckfest.Remember that there is no pricing standard out there.A girl charges whatever she thinks she's worth.It's up to us to decide whether she is worth it or not.A good time can cost you anywhere from about $150 in a massage parlor to $1500 or more for a pornstar.You'll just have to peruse the ads and websites to find out what the best deal for you is. Good luck!

You take her to dinner and pick up the tab, as in any date situation unless otherwise specified on her website.  There are options here.  If you are hosting at your home, you can make her dinner.  At a hotel, you can order room service or order in.  That can be a lot of fun.  Just let her know the plans so she knows what to expect and how to dress for the evening.  

There are many reasons why a hobbyist may want to have a dinner date with a provider.  Some feel their ATF is sort-of a girlfriend without any of the hassles.  You may want to use the opportunity to become comfortable with her.  If you travel a lot, it's nice to have someone to enjoy a meal with or a night out.  There are times you must go to an event but no one is free to accompany you.  Or maybe you have some type of fantasy.

And yes, there are times when being wined and dined is tougher than other portions of the session, it really depends on the company.  There is additional risk if she is recognized by a colleague, friend or family member while in public.  In any case, you are paying her for her time regardless of what you choose to do with it.

Reinner date/package confusion?

The hobbyists is expected to pick up all expenses during a dinner date. All providers that I have had dinner dates with are ok with staying in the room and having room service. This works well and top notch hotels since many have highly regarded resturants. Most midrange hotels have decent resturants, even at those good room service is available. If you go the room service route the most time that you will give up is maybe 45 minutes. When I have a room service dinner date I get one to two rounds out of the way before calling room service, we clothe and snuggle while waiting for delivery, we remain clothed while eating. The cloths come off as soon as the serving tray is placed outside the room.
Try the room service route with a few dinner dates, you will like it. As far as rates, ladies normally charge less per hour for longer appointments. I would bypass the ones that charge the same or more for longer appointments, even if they are pornstars. If you have not already, get a VIP membership on this site and use that advantage to scan reviews for ladies that meet your needs.

I know what is basically socially expected (guy picks up the tab), and obviously made inquries concerning this topic because I enjoy the pleasures of being in the company of an attractive lady. I just wanted to know why such variation,  and I guess the first RE addressed this.....hey.... it's capitalism, and YMMV. I guess, for a Newbie, who does not yet have an ATF, nor  a lot of refrences, a dinner date prior to session could be risky for provider and therefore billed at close to normal rate. But, is it common place to book a normal 1 or 2 hour session and then be able to ask the lady to enjoy dinner with you, off the clock, if she has nothing better to do, once she sees you're not Charlie Manson or the Elephant Man? Or, do most providers consider this to be negotiation of rates and find it offensive? Just attempting to get a handle on what is generally acceptable and get the biggest bang for my buck while being fair. Had it not been for TER I surely would have been sucked-in by C's List and would have had very differen't experiences than the positive ones i've had so far.

Reinner date/package confusion? Thanks, Gothicman

Some very good info. And the VIP membership has paid for itself a hundred times over.

I am not sure why a lady might charge more per hour for a dinner date, maybe someone can shed light on this.  Generally, most charge an hourly rate for company and after a certain amount of time will charge a tad less per hour, "the more you buy the less you pay".  

As far as asking her to dinner after the fact, it really depends on the person.  Some may think you are being cheap, some might be flattered.  I guess you'd have to feel out the situation.  Remember though that many ladies have lives outside of work and may not be able to eat if it's not planned.  Escorts have other jobs, kids, significant others, hobbies, etc. and if you schedule two hours, she may only plan on two hours and then have something else going on afterward.  If you really want to have dinner with her, book it and pay for it.
