how about classy, how about honest, how about someone I'd like to meet someday.

I don't know you, we've never met.
But I don't see anything you did wrong.
When you come to this board with a problem, an issue, a concern, and voice it openly, there will always be some jerks out there that will jump on you with both feet.

It seems that some want the ladies to "shut up, lie down, and spread 'um", and not be allowed to vent their frustrations as we, the guys, do.

Personally, I like to hear/read when a lady has the guts to open up and vent on these boards. It tells me she has class and won't let others dictate how and what she does.

Tasha, you are a class act, don't let the jerks get you down.

Just my opinion...

I first want to apologize to the two people, (they know who they are,) that I may have offended in my last post...THAT WASN'T MY INTENTION at all but we three have talked and I hope made peace with it.  I also want to make it clear, that I wasn't thinking about the WHOLE picture per say, but the small picture and tossed a lot of things out there that weren't quite explained the way I intended them to be.  

I really don't want it to seem, first, that I was "cheated" out of what "I ask for" because the post I had made prior to this one, I pretty much stated I was "ripped off" and I wasn't by any means.  The man/men I seen and had referred to in my post were awesome men and treated me like nothing less than a wonderful woman.  I do apologize once again and admitt my wrong doings.

To all the people who will most likely critisize me for this post....I am not "changing" what I said but also know I didn't post exactly what I was feeling.  If I had posted what I felt maybe I wouldn't have recieved such a negative response or "bitch slap" as some would call it.  

Regardless, I hope that no one would ever think of me as anything less than a good person.  Great is hard to come by and wonderful becomes almost impossible in this world and business.  As for a spoiled brat, most who KNOW me, know I grew up in a less than wealthy family and never owned anything that was "in style" or "trendy."  Once again though, I am not a sob story but when people point fingers and call names under alias I find it hurtful and I shed tears behind these things.  People who post may be hiding behind their own problems etc, but I never, ever, ever meant to cause harm, distrust or problems.  I sincerely apologize to the main person (once again they know who they are) and the other person, whom also knows who they are.  I am SOOOOOOO sorry.  

Thanks,
Tasha

PS
I'm waiting for more names to be called after this but that's ok because I admitt my wrong doings and not everyone is a perfect speller.  Please feel free to critisize me again under nameless alias.

XOXOOXOXOXOXOX

What a suck up!!!

She asked a question on a public board, by and large she got honest answers. I can't help it if she didn't like the answers. Sure there were a couple of assholes taking potshots from behind an alias, but that is to be expected.

Mainly what she got, was what she asked for, honesty, and the general consensus was not in her favor. It's probably the reason she softened her earlier tone. I don't have anything against her, and she is probably a nice lady, but if your going to throw yourself out to the court of public opinion, you'd better be prepared to accept the verdict.

I highly doubt that her business is going to suffer because of this, but she didn't do herself any favors either. I know I wouldn't book with her after this.

Your points are pretty spot on, in that the response was reasonably predictable.  Having said that, I can attest to your thought...she is a nice lady.

What I see as an issue is that the forum is pretty much set up to punish a lady that has questions that may come across as unpopular.  I've personally made the decision to not see someone because of things I've read from them here, and yet I've happily seen Tasha on multiple occasions.  Had I not, I may have interpreted her words the same way that you did.  I'm not sure the point, but it's something to think about.

Tasha,

While I expect to take a little criticism for it I want to offer a positive opinion.  You handled the feedback, both positive and negative, as well as could be expected.  I have read a lot of threads where the poster received negative feedback and they responded with negativity.  Once the comments turn into personal attacks they loose all productivity.  

It takes a big person (in a good way) to accept negative feedback and maintain professionalism.  We have all had days where we have not properly communicated our feelings.  That is just part of being an emotional being.  Also if a few spelling errors are your biggest errors then you are better than I.

I hope that soon you will be allowed to move part this and get back to having fun.  Best wishes.

We've never met and I'd guess never will as I don't like Vegas and avoid traveling there...so no ax to grind or sucking up to get favors; this is just my honest opinion. You seem like a great provider with many many spectacular reviews. I wouldn't hesitate to see you based on things said in the previous thread. Yes you may have gotten a bit carried away in your "spleen vent" but you have taken the high road and have apologized; a classy response not often seen in these threads. We all have our melt-downs and yours was pretty mild in the scheme of things.
Best Wishes,
T

I think some of the guys were too hard on you.

Why do people care so much how a provider spells? I find that odd.

You gave us your "hobby experience" and I applaud you for that.

although I didn't agree with all your points, I thought you came across much better than some of those who couldn't make their own points without being sarcastic and childish in the process.

You don't need to be apologizing. You didn't do anything wrong and I don't think anyone felt you were out to offend people intentionally. I was in fact offended by your attitude in some areas, but I know you didn't intentionally. You stated your honest perspective, and you asked for peoples honest opinions and you got them. I gave mine, it was very negative and I meant every word of it, but I shouldn't have to apologize for being honest and neither should you.

IMO,just look at all the responses, white knight, to scathing and everywhere in between,  simply as  constructive feedback coming directly from the marketplace. Do with that feedback what you will. Some companies pay millions for that type of marketplace feedback, you got it for free :)


Wow, this place really IS drama central. I could swear some of the men and women here are married to each other by the way they argue. Just goes to show what happens when you mix business and pleasure...

As far as I'm concerned, none of this stuff changes my desire to see you Tasha. I steer clear of the drama - I just wanna have fun and laugh with you. I think both providers and hobbyists have too high of expectations at times. This is true in any service business. Ever have a disagreement with a contractor working on your house? Every have a problem with your business partners? Sheeze, we're all human and we all screw up. So Tash, your emotions got the better of you and you over-vented. And some guys now think less of you as a result. Oh well, that's life people, I can't think of ANY relationship between people that doesn't eventually produce an argument. Now add in sex and maybe unrealistic expectations on one or both sides and you have all the makings of an argument. So far I've managed to sidestep all this crap and actually have fun with every provider I've met. Maybe if we all had more realistic expectations, there wouldn't be so much arguing.

didn't go and read your earlier posts as a cheat sheet.

That being said, whatever it is that you posted about, and whatever the outcome, it looks like you've taken the high road and tried to make ammends to the people that need to hear it most. Congrats. You are a good person. Don't let anyone tell you different.

Once again, Tasha you show your class, honesty & sensitivity.  This post wasn't obligated, but you obviously care deeply about your's and others' credibility.  This only enhances your well integrity.
