Yes, I am posting this from my Alias.  I think you will understand why.  

I have been hobbying now for 15+ years.  I have over 50 reviews on TER and 30+ Likes on P411.  

I am from DC, but today I traveled south.  ( I don't want to mention the city or the providers name)

I had been reserching providers for 2+ weeks.  My first choice wasn't free so I went with my second choice.  Great overall reviews.  (1 or 2 questionable ones...) Our communication was great up till the time of the appointment.

Now keep in mind this is a higher end "VIP" type provider.  $600 for 90 min session.  

The day of the appt (today) she email me to tell me that her phone broke and to send her the RM # and hotel info ago).  So, I did.  Her phone was cracked and was barely working.  Then she asks me to text the hotel address again, no big deal I did.  Now it is 20mins past our appt time (no biggie) So, I text again wanting to get an update...No response.  

50 mins later, I text again asking if she wants to reshdule (she has my hotel info AND room #) .  90 mins after the appt time she responds to tell me she will be here in 10 mins.  then she texts again that her Boyfriends father just past away and how she was in the hospital....I told her I was really sorry to hear that.  I told her perhaps another time we can get together.  I felt bad for her.  She stil wanted to meet.  But, I was a little skeptial about it.  I don't know if she booked another appt in addition to mine  But, I didn't think it would be a great session if she was depressed or if she had double booked me.

So, I told her it wasn't going to work.  I do feel bad about it.  I am sure she was counting on the money.  Now I went back to the front desk and had them move me to another floor / room just in case she shows up...

What are your thoughts?  Did I do the right thing?  You know how horney we can get.  It was hard to not want to give in.  But, I hate feeling like a sucker...  When she told me she 10mins away I didn't know if that was really 10mins or an hour....  

because you were willing to pay $600 for 90 minutes!

I think you acted like a perfect gentleman, and when you thought you needed to protect yourself from a possible flake, you went to the front desk and took steps to protect yourself.

I think what you need a little more of is guts to stand by what you did.If I were you, I wouldn't use an alias for this kind of post and would out her.  I don't know what you are afraid of.

If you have been in the hobby for last 15+ years, you should have seen it all, and we all know that the best of them flake at times.  Doesn't seem to be that serious a reason to quit hobbying altogether.

Keep partying my friend...

You're experienced at this, you SHOULD know how it goes.  You write "50 mins later..." that woulda been it for me.  I woulda simply said we will need to reschedule regardless of her reasons why she was late.

I woulda hit the airwaves (TER) and other resource tools (EURO) and found the next candidate.  

You gotta keep this stuff simple.  Shit happens for a host of legitimate and Bullshit reasons/excuses.  I dont take it personal........after 15 mins and it's obvious that the appointment will be problematic I pull the plug and move on.

Stuff happens but she sounds like she's a mess.

With all due respect, if I were you, I'd quit hobbying for a while.  Give it 4 or 5 months.

The post you provide comes across as both naive and unbelievably desparate.    Being "horny" is no excuse for such a desparate grasp at straws.  I could tell by the 2nd or 3rd sentence in there that she wasn't going to come.  And all this nonsense about her boyfriend's father passing away is silly.  The "concern" in your voice indicates that it's way past time to stop.  Unless you know her personally - I'd doubt that she has a boyfriend, I'd doubt that the last time she DID have a boyfriend that he even had a father and if he did, I'd bet you her hourly rate that he's alive and kicking.

Sorry, dude, just being honest and fair.

Plenty of good reasons to quit hobbying (but more great reasons not to, wink wink!) but this is not one of them.  She was having a rough day for whatever reason and I wouldn't read anymore into the situation.  Rub some dirt on it and get back in the damn game.

I agree.  I was worried that she was going to show up at my hotel room and make a scene.  That is why I held in there.  If I was in the parking lot waiting for her...10-15 mins and I'm gone...

Thanks for the comments.  I usually book higher end providers to avoid these types of problems.  

I don't want to "out her" I don't want her blasting me or making trouble for me.   I knew she was pisssed b/c she texted me 2-3 times after we spoke, I never responded.

The amount of money you pay does not always equate to discretion, promptness and professional courtesy.  Crap comes in all colors and in varying costs. Stellar reviews don't always mean you will get stellar service.  All a review really means was how that particular session went.  Doesn't mean that yours will go that way at all. YMMV is the key here.  Keep on trying is my advice. And please tell us who this was. You would like to know is someone you want to see acted like that with another client wouldn't you?

If that is the worst problem you ever have consider yourself lucky.  Why would you consider quitting because of this?  I think you are excessively worrying about it though changing rooms might have been a good thing to do.  She probably did either double book or got an offer to extend time.  Many guys will have a Plan A, Plan B, Plan C, obviously some providers are going to do the same thing.  For someone who has been around as long as you, I am also surprised you are worried about her feelings when odds are she was feeding you a big pile of smelly crap.  The phone part of the story I might accept.  But when she adds on the death on top if it I would probably consider asking her how strong the weed was she was smoking.  If you knew her well and had a trusting track record maybe.  But it sounds like this was the first time you scheduled with her.  If someone is over about 30 to 45 minutes late I am on the computer seeing if there is an alternate plan available to set up.  Look at it this way, you are $600 richer.

She gave you some classic textbook excuses yet you still believe her.  A "VIP" type provider as you described, will never have a broken phone.  The phone is their livelihood.  How can her phone be broken but she can still text??

Also, a sudden death or accident or car trouble are other classic excuses.  She doesn't sound so "VIP" to me.

The only thing you did right was to switch rooms.  It's hard to believe you've been at this for over a decade.

what you think of her motives/ reasons/excuses are just in your head.

At first, I thought one particular lady I've seen was kind of flaky. It turns out she just is very spontaneous about appointments.

Sorry, but for anyone u've never met and have set up a first business appt with, to tell you her BOYFRIEND's relative is sick, is creepy. Why couldn't she just say a friend or acquaintance? Talk of spouses and bf's and gf's should wait until at least the third date!  

I think you did perfectly fine!!!  

When things get weird, and your gut tells you no... just go ahead with your feeling.
I've had things coming up or simply been stuck in traffic but I keep communicating... I think communication is key to have a good time...

No need to quit
