Gregsand

I agree there's likely much more to the story and highly doubt that was the result of only one incident. I don't condone this kind of vigilantism and public humiliation, but was likely well deserved. Could be from being abusive or by paying with fake money. Would be interesting to know what built up to this.

As for being cautious, I don't think the treatment is reserved for clean and polite lobbyists. The normal screening process should be enough to avoid this type of situation.

Enjoy the rest of your weekend.

Remember when watching porn meant buying dirty magazines from convenience stores, buying or renting VHS tapes behind a curtain or going to a movie theater with very sticky floors?

Just seen "Ready Player One", the latest Spielberg movie based on the Ernest Cline book of the same name published in 2011.

It feels more like a ride than an actual movie. The story and characters are a bit generic and predictable and the runtime is a bit long at 139 min. But the real attractions are the virtual reality environments and countless(literally) amount of pop culture references from movies, comic books, anime and video games. Far from the best Spielberg movie I seen, but certainly worth seeing in IMAX 3D. Like other spectacle movies like "Avatar" and "Gravity", it's the kind of movie that won't translate well on a smaller screen. Better take advantage while it's in theater. Worth the price if you enjoy a good dose of nostalgia and eye popping visuals.

Enjoy the long weekend.

Wrong city, my bad.

He's talking about her:

Take care.

Good. Case closed!!!

What are you arguing here? You just posted his exact words that HE PAYS 50/HR. I'll post his exact words too, "I often go overtime".... So he pays her 50/hr AND often goes overtime.

He said he UNDER pays by $50 an hour. NOT pays. Please read his entire comments that very clear about that.

When he started seeing her, her rate was $X. According to her recent ads, her rate is now $X+50 and he still pays $X. Understand?

He DID say that Gregsand. He said he pays 50 per hour and that he always overstays the agreed upon time.

His exact words :"I have been under paying by $50/hr for the past year or so."

Additional Comments:

Never saw the word exploitation used

In my world, "taking advantage of the situation" and "exploitation"(presumably for $50 an hour) is pretty much the same.

You pay 50 for an hour AND go over time? You say that's her choice and that bothers me. Have you ever thought that she is too nice to be up front and end the session, or afraid of backlash, etc...? To me it sounds as though you are taking advantage of the situation.

That's not what he said. He said he's been seeing that woman for over two years and her rate has raised by 50$ since, but she never told him. He knows because he seen her more recent ad, but this was never addressed in person. He's simply asking advices as he's not sure she's giving him a preferential rate or if she's too afraid to ask him for more.

Nobody is exploiting anyone.

Well i guess thats on them...why create drama that initiates sadness and dread. This isnt a situation where you going to spend a lifetime together. Its an hour or more so why not just get down to the nitty gritty? Ego can take a back seat for one encounter surely.

He's at least seeking online advices. I suppose that's one positive first step.

Ummm may you please point out where i criticized? My whole poinr s that open and HONEST conversation makes for a great personal and/or economic relationship. Why is expressing/talking about thoughts and feelings such a taboo subject?

It's not really a taboo subject, but to maintain a status quo people would rather avoid a subject than risking an answer they wouldn't like.

Thr best way to create a mutually beneficial relationship (sexual or not) is honest conversation. Why are we' date=' as a society so close minded? Just express what you want, say what you mean and if your intended cant deliver walk and check out someone more compatible. Why try to adapt to someone who doesnt meet your criteria. Psettling should not be an option! (In real life or in this life!). Convo folks...talk and listen; it actually works[/quote']

 

Not knowing the arrangement and overall relationship, it's a bit easy and unfair to criticize. When things go well people tend to avoid touchy subjects, and money is often a sticking point. If he doesn't want to raise the question, being more generous would be the best alternative.

I am going to stir the pot a bit if you are aware that her rate has changed and you enjoy your time with her than step up it will go far in her estimation of you. Some of us are too polite and secretly harbor a bit of animosity.

I agree with you. If the question bothers him enough to create a thread about it, it's certainly worth discussing with her and modify the "preferential rate/arrangement" if a real problem for her. But as it was mentioned by livenudecats and Blondenextdoor, different rates for newcomers and regulars is not unusual. It's maybe just a question of making it official instead of an awkward and outdated arrangement.

If she never mentioned it, it's likely because she consider you a regular and want to keep it that way.

If you feel like you're taking advantage of her, you can leave her a bigger tip.

Without being too technical, you need to hide your IP address to navigate out of the U.S. internet. You can download IP blocking software or use a proxy website that will relay you directly to the Canadian website.

Hopefully this will point you in the right direction and you'll gain back your access.

Take care.

Clarifying... do you mean as a "valid" board participant or as a great client?

You ask a good question as this could be interpreted both ways.

To be recognised as a "great client" one has to start putting their money where their mouth(or keyboard) is. Also, being clean, punctual and respectful will help a lot. The more well know and recommended the SP, better the visibility and recognition. But as he mentioned, he lives in an underrepresented area. Meaning he'll need to travel or take advantage when recommended providers are touring his area in order to make this happen.

Again, this may not be the best place for him.

Welcome to Lyla.

Just start slowly. Post comments, start threads, thank or nominate good posts and responses, build good rapport with members and make friends.

You don't need a "reputation" to be respected here. Just be an active member.

As for the Alberta forum, I can't help you with that. Some cities/territories are better represented on other message boards or other communication platforms. Hopefully someone for the area will recommend you alternatives.

Enjoy your stay.

He said "erotic hypnosis". That very clearly makes this the ideal place to make such an inquiry.

 

I have noticed You have a pattern of getting into arguments because you don't pay attention and then go off on self-important tangents related to a far removed conversation you mostly have with yourself.

 

Let. it. Go.

Not sure why telling someone to be cautious would be considered going "on self-important tangents". Erotic hypnosis is a mixed bag. You can have 10 sessions with different ladies and get completely different experiences(good and bad). We can argue the same could be said about most BDSM disciples and therapies, but when you got someone screwing with your mind it's good to know their true intentions. Reasons more to look at the right places and check their credentials first.

Also, thank you for being part of the conversation. LOL

For me, "Non-pro" is when she's not seeking more than one arrangement at the time, when the compensation is tailor made for the needs and capacity of both involved and when it feels like a real relationship.

I used one of those website before and noticed a fair amount of professional SP's taking advantage of it. I had more success on CL and the good old IRC chat software.

Unless you're very familiar with the Mac OS and require it for video or sound editing, not sure I would recommend one.

A decent PC is inexpensive and Win 10 is a very stable and fast operating system.

In term of hardware, most differences are in term of style. Processors, ram and other components are not very different.

If you're looking for a gaming machine and the ability to play MP3 from sources out of the Apple Store, a PC offers more flexibility. But at the end of the day it all depends on your comfort zone with an operating system. If you never used a Mac(or vice versa), you'll face a learning curve. Better stay with what you know.

Advertising on BP as 'sweet treat waiting for you'. Pics are of the back of a blond. When I arrived she was blond but tatoos and body that didn't match pic. Claimed she was taking this appointment for a friend. Once she had money the only service she offered was a HJ. I am a regular looking guy who was fresh from a shower, decent clothes and has never had trouble before so this wasn't a ymmv scenario.

 

I've rarely had any complaints about our local providers but now I've had two different problems recently. Time to stick to the ladies I already know and enjoy.

You can't blame anyone else than yourself if you paid knowing the picture didn't match the lady. The "taking this appointment for a friend" should have been your cue to run for the door.

I seen many discussions about fake pictures, but few about inappropriate pics for the services offered.

There's no doubt that sex and nudity sells in the adult industry. Suggestive pictures does give visibility for SP and escorts. But when MA's, RMT's and providers of non traditional therapies use the same kind of pictures, it kinda sends mixed messages on what they really offer. I spoke to a few MA's who use nudity in their pictures, but complain when men ask for extras or confuse them with an SP.

Health service providers don't need to dress like nuns, but should present a professional image while remaining attractive and feminine. And it's not just a woman thing, I seen a few men posting pictures of their penises and don't understand why they're confused with gigolos. LOL

Am I the only one who encountered this kind of situation or want to talk about this?

There multiple interpretation but the name pretty much says it all. If you're a mother and attractive, you're a MILF.

On the other hand years ago I had a provider ask me if I would help her get pregnant. I declined.

Wise decision. To quote the late Admiral Ackbar: "IT'S A TRAP!!!"
