Once in a while I'll read a review where the scheduled appt just didn't take place and for whatever reason.  I can understand why people get frustrated or angered when this happens but why doesn't it bother you when it does happen?

I've been in the situation before and I've been just as frustrated as the next guy.  However, I've never written a review when that happens as that seems more like "payback" or revenge or something.  For all I know, the next appt I make with her (if I make one) would work out just fine and the review I would have written would have basically been bogus.

These days, appts that don't go through don't really bother me as much as they used to.  For me, seeing providers is more of a luxury than anything else.  I do like the companionship and interacting with another person but it's not like the limited amount of time I spend with her is going to be the same as if I lived with her or if I spent a LOT of time with her, like a spouse of some kind.

When I get home from an outstanding session, I do reflect on the time I shared with that person and look forward to spending more time with them BUT unless I've got the duckets that won't happen so I'm back to "reality" once again.  I guess the point is, at some point I realized I was really getting all worked up for something that really shouldn't be getting me all riled up.

Now, I can see writing reviews of providers who don't follow through on appts more than once (with the same guy) as that does indicate a pattern of flakiness.  In fact, there's a provider I HAVE seen whom I've tried to see twice and BOTH times she was open to seeing me again but she never responded to my requests to book an actual appt.  So, I've just stopped trying to see her and will spend those resources somewhere else.  

Your thoughts?

Peace...
