Hello Ladies,
  I have my very first date coming up and wanted to ensure that I made it special for the provider. I'm planning on bringing her a small gift and flowers. We will be starting with dinner and drinks. Is there anything else that I can do to make our time together more relaxing, comfortable and enjoyable for her ? I know that everyone talks about treating the provider with respect. To me, that is just Duh - Ya think !! I would like to go beyond the standard. Thus, if you can share your thoughts as to what would make the event more special, that would be great.

She does not need to feel special.  The fact that you have booked her is all she needs.  I always bring a gift, candles and a VS gift card.  All my 'girlfriends' are special to me.

Remember, this is BUSINESS for her.  You are not the first guy she has gone out with, so don't make that big a fuss over her.  If you want to give her a gift, she will love it, but not to the extent that a civvie girl might.

You are not especially special to her, it's her job!!!!!  If you want the best experience, treat her with the respect you would a civvie girlfriend, and you will have a good time.

Thanks, Swim. I guess being a newbie, I haven't figured out how to detach the civie side of things. As you said, I am neither the first, nor the last and this is a business. Thus, as long as I am polite & respectful, anything beyond that is a free bonus. Thanks again for putting things in perspective for me.

It is very kind of you to be so thoughtful, however, don't go overboard, it would make me nervous. I've had a few who decided they were in love with me and wanted to "save" me from this life. If you showed up with too many gifts and flowers, I would be on guard, watching for signs that you were one of those.
While I enjoy my clients very much, and appreciate them, it is still a business.

for the lady in terms of descretion.  A nice small (in size) gift is always appreciated.  If going to a lady's incall, I will sometimes bring a candle.

Gent here...
I usually bring a small jar candle & matches...  I present them when I arrive at her room.
With Fav ladies, one I bring sugar free candy.  The other I occasionally bring a candle, music CD.  Sometimes a greeting card.  Gifts need not be pricy...  I rarely spend more than $5 but it adds a nice touch.  

Flowers are not a good idea...  you carrying them through the lobby is conspicious & she may well not even take them home.

Funnt story:  

I had a guy call me and say that he sells sunglasses and has LV purses and wanted to know if I would take those instead of $$$$.  

I could not believe it and I also kindly declined.

I also had a guy ask me if I would be willing to negotiate on my prices.  I asked him what would he like for me NOT to do during out time in my mind negotiating is a two way street...LOLOL.  

At the end of the day, I kindly declined meeting him.

I take it all in stride, shake my head, and now I refer them to TER so that they can learn as I am learning.

I hope everyone has a incredibly satisfying day!

How sweet and thoughtful you are to consider taking gifts. If you keep up the consideration and gentleness throughout your date, I am sure you will be appreciated.

Girls, like gifts. Some even have gift or wishlists. If she has one of those, check that.

As someone mentioned, a nice quality candle can be nice. I like special confectioners' candies or nice wines or garters.  Some ladies like lingerie and perfumes.  The problem with those kinds of things, everyone doesn't like the same thing.  Check her site and her date-check profile to see if she has anything listed like a perfume or something.  

I agree with the gentleman, for an incall, I dont think I would want the flowers for the same discrectionary reasons.  Is she wearing earrings or something in her pics?  A nice simple pair has to be about equal cost as the flowers.

For now a candle or something simple will do.  I'm not going to tell you to not take anything (although it is not necessary) because it seems like that is just the type of guy that you are.

Enjoy your date, and if it has passed, I hope it was a blast!
