How much notification do you prefer when a girl is coming to your neck of the woods? Are you more of a last minute planner or do you plan out 1 week, 2 weeks, a month at a time?
in general, more time means more opportunity for everyone involved
experts in our own experience and as a provider, my experience with D.C., has been really amazing in regards to planning. It's as if the folx there know the 12Ps, well 6, in this case. However, I've also noticed that folks do pre-screen in the area just in case. It is key to note that I am not based in D.C. so my experience could be an outlier.
In my home area I prefer seeing the 1-2 weeks out. If I'm traveling to an area I will check a week or two out to see not only the the locals for that area but any ladies that may be traveling through at that time. My schedule when I travel is typically very fluid and the reality is if I get the opportunity its likely to be a last minute thing. I'm a planner by nature so I'd much rather go that route, but when on the road, I have to roll with what I can do.
So both. Longer lead times in my area but okay with longer and shorter if I'm traveling to an area.
