Am I out of line?

Contacted a great traveling provider the other day to see if I could book a morning appointment on the day she was leaving town in several weeks. I've seen her several times before. She told me she was only booking 90 minute sessions to reduce clientele because of covid risk. I had requested an hour appt. I jokingly replied that to reduce my risk I was masking up, doing more half hour sessions and doing doggie style. She accused me of wasting a lot of her time and demanded that I send her a gift. I apologized several times but she kept demanding a gift. It was strange! Was I out of line for discussing a topic she had brought up.

No way in hell were you out of line  
You requested a date matching length of time from the past( think is true)
She  responded and you responded  
She just wasted more of her time asking / demanding a gift

Not for asking for an hour long session, but for the fact that you "apologized several times" for it.

 
Just why did you owe HER an apology for asking for something that you had clearly received from her in the past. You should send her a bill for YOUR wasted time.

I ran this by my fellow scriptwriters and it was unanimous: too much drama. In the rewrite, she counters your joking reply with her own, "Well, to be really safe, venmo me $300 and we can do an hour by skype." You then chuckle and say, "Nah. I'll just wait for your next trip here. Take care." "You too!" "Have a Happy New Year!" "Yeah! You too!" "OK. Have a good, safe trip. Bon voyage." "Thanks! Love you." "What?" "Nothin'. See you next year. Bye." (click)

Sounds very bizarre indeed to me, especially with a previously known and possibly recent Client who would not even require screening.  
I have found that with the events of the last year that I have often found it necessary to stop and take pause  and reflect for a moment to consider the pressures that everyone is experiencing.  Not normally an extremely patient person especially with rudeness and a lack of gracious behavior i try to be understanding and make comparisons with what i have/am feeling but it can be difficult.  Learning to bite my lip is leaving  (figuratively speaking) some bruising, I am normally outspoken and BRUTALLY frank.  It has been a struggle for me and I know others too.
I don't know where she AT or WHAT she may be experiencing but it sounds like another case of the COVID Panic Behavioural Syndrome  ( otherwise normal people doing totally bizarre unexpected things for no really good reason)  to me, ......but really, who knows what the Hell she is thinking or experiencing.

A Salubrious New Year for all, hopefully

A rather excessive response to what seems to have been intended as a humorous reply. However, probably worth keeping in mind that what we hear in our own head, and even how something might come across verbally, are often different when read by someone else.

 
You've apologized (once is plenty) so just move on.

 
Is kind of interesting that most of these blow up seem to stem from trying to "explain". I have the impression you probably would not have bothered with some snappy comeback if she had simply said something like: Yes, I can do the morning of but I am not accepting one hour bookings at this time so 90 minutes would be the shortest session you can book.

 
I suppose if she keeps demanding some gift you can claim mental and emotional suffering. Let her know that is easily twice as much suffering as any time you've wasted. She can simply decide on the fair compensation owed for the lost time and take that out of the payment to you. ;-)

but I don’t see that warranting you having to send her a gift to make up for it.

"You have wronged me; pay me money." What a money-grubbing . . .

with providers I know well,  so my take is that if this is a lady you see once a month or more often, then she should have engaged in the playful banter you started to try to work out some sort of compromise.  She drew a line in the sand and left herself no way to walk it back.  That's on her.  On the other hand, if she's a provider I have only seen once or twice before, or have not seen for many months, then I would  refrain from too much kidding around during the booking phase.  I would have soberly explained to her that all I can work into my schedule at this time is a one-hour session, and if she is not able to do that, then I would still be interested in seeing her in the future if her policy changed.  That's all I would say, and then wait for a few days for her to change her mind and take the one-hour booking.    

 
The demand for a gift is a "tell" that she's not doing as well as she would like to with her 90-min policy.  You have to hold your ground POLITELY, and then leave her some time to "invent" an excuse to accept your one-hour request.  She saves "face" and still gets your one-hour fee.

You could just tell her to fuck off and find a less demanding, less "cunty" provider.  

 
I think I like my option a LOT better than yours. I would lose all desire to see ANY woman the moment she tried pulling that kind of crap on me. She sounds way too self absorbed to be any kind of a fun date IMO.

"great" she really is, and the regards in which she holds you as a repeat client.  

I find it absolutely hilarious how guys are perennially accused of being crass and abusive, when an equal and ugly truth lies on the other side of the (panty) line for some women.

Drop her like the trash she is. Plenty of good ones out there, and finding one might just be fun.

Better just buy her an engagement ring and get it over with because you act like you’re married.
