I had set an appointment for tonight with one of my new favorites.  This afternoon she calls me to say she's very sorry, but she can't do full service today because her period just started.  She apologized again and offered to reschedule for me.

Ladies, I know many of you are just as considerate, but many are not.  So when we get a "heads up" like this, we really appreciate it.  This lady might have missed a "sale" tonight, but she's racked up plenty of Brownie Points that will pay off in the long run.

Anyway, I suggested that if she had time, we could just go to dinner instead, which we did.  Nice dinner, nice conversation.  Took her home, kissed her goodnight.  Just like high school.  Still had a good time.  Now, excuse me while I go jack off...

Nice touch taking her to dinner instead, classy man.
You won some brownie points of your own..

I had a similar (sex-less) dinner date Sunday that proved tremendously enjoyable. The sexual tension shared between this provider and myself should prove memorable when we finally consumate the business part of our friendship.
  You showed quite a bit of class yourself PC. Nothing like a little "old school" chivalry.  Eh' ladies?

Time to play Teacher and reward good boys after school..

(been outta town good to be back)

Since you have been out of town perhaps you would like to engage in some show & tell for your teacher. I'm sure you have a LOT to talk about

and in this case, everyone came out a winner, since you both made the best of a bad situation.

i wish there was as much concensus about this in the thread few days ago on Aunt Flo, where if i'm not mistaken, some providers seemed to be suggesting that it's up to a woman to decide how she plays this one out (IOW, it's ok not to tell a guy)

an admitted hemophobe,

I think that one thing is continually missed in this topic..and that is that we should have a respect for one another's 'choice'. To inform each other of various things, allows them to make an informed 'choice'. So, for example, if the Gent avoids playing while the ladies are on their cycle because he also feels that that additional body fluid puts him at greater risk, he'd prefer to make a different choice. There is that to consider also.
Just as, if I had just spent the evening with a client and found out later some of his playtime activities, that I personally avoid, I'd be quite unhappy. I prefer to be well informed upfront.
And then, there's just plain ol' common courtesy..

What do you typically pay for a platonic dinner date?

I paid the check and left a tip (for the waitress).  This wasn't business, it was just for fun.  I've taken her to dinner other times too.

BTW, on a side note, I would personally never pay for the honor of taking someone out to dinner.  The most I'll pop for is the meal.

> BTW, on a side note, I would personally never pay for the honor of taking someone out to dinner.  

Yeah I'm sorry but that would be plain pathetic if you did.

I see posts by providers offering Aunt Flo's French Lessons.  I see posts about cancellations for provider's monthly visits.  I know I'm just a newbie, but why don't more providers go on birth control?  It seems like a prescription would be a lot less expensive than several days of lost income.

I wish I didn't HAVE to be on the Pill. It's not the best thing for your body and does put one at various risks, particularly if they smoke, etc. There's weight gain (though they swear not), headaches, etc and then the nausea and dizziness that can still accompany them no matter how much you're 'used to' taking them. There's the expense, doctors visits, and prescriptions if they don't have Medical insurance (tho they can always go to Planned Parenthood) as some reasons. I don't know. I have to take them, so I do, and I like being able to look at the calendar and Plan. September 22nd..? Let me see..

tripNatl: women still get a period (not a *real* period because they haven't ovulated but they bleed) when they take the pill so using birth control wouldn't mean they could work all month.  Also, how many women really want to work every single day?

The only providers I have had this type of date with typically do so off the clock, ie there is no donation involved.  It's purely a friend having dinner with a friend.  One of them in fact demands that we split the check.

Many providers I have had dinner dates with "dessert" lower the rate for the time spent having dinner, while the standard rate prevails for dessert.  I believe that this type of arrangement is a fair one.
