OK.  So i am a total newb.  Traveling next week to LA and decided to give this a go.

After reading the trouble people have connecting without having provider references, i figure i will need to get date-checked and have to be turned down a few times.

Then the first girl i contact, only asks me my name number and the state i live in and is good to go.  She only has 1 review here, but it is great.

Should i be concerned?  Could this be a setup or something else?

but I wouldn't bee too nervous with this situation.  Many gals don't use references, and the information you provided is enough for her to do basic screening, and determine you are not on any bad client lists.

Again be careful, and if it doesn't feel right, you can always call her and cancel.

Good Luck,

One reference may be a bit of a concern.  Does her reviewer have multiple reviews?  That should increase your comfort level a bit more.  

It think your concern should be more of a ripoff or bad service than LE.  It is unlikely that they will run the identical sting for that long.  Word gets around and the catch rate will drop.  Furthermore, I suppose you are doing outcall, which they tend to shy away from.

Jazz is right about the level of screening. Some very experienced and highly rated ladies just use their spidey sense, which seems quite well-tuned.  Your MO isn't one of LE since you're making the appt. so far out, so you probably have good phone manners and can be googled.

Have Fun!

I'm always nervious meeting a new lady...  she'll be nervious meetiing you.  I agree that the larger concern is for performance level more than LE.  

DO read back through the boards here a couple of pages each, just to get an idea of how things usually work (although it must be noted that individual ladies do vary their business plans.)

Have a good time!

I am pretty new to this as well, but I have to say I am somewhat surprised at the difficulties some posters have had connecting with providers. My first couple were much as you describe, name and area and good to go. Both experiences were just great, though both ladies were also quite well reviewed. If your lady has only one review, I would check for other reviews by the same reviewer.

Many ladies are more comfortable with an out of towner with no references vs. a local, cause if she has your real name and state she can verify that fairly easily, at least making it highly unlikely you are LE or on any DNS lists.

As for the one review, for me it just depends on the reviewer, hopefully he has more reviews and seems reliable.

There you can name the provider and link to her review. Maybe someone who hangs out on that board is familiar with her.

Thanks guys.
