    Telegram is probably not going to end well for you, most girls in this area advertise on leolist. There are tons of scams on there so do your research, anyone who doesn't have lots of positive feedback online is not worth the risk unless you're experienced.

    Oh it's for sure all my fault. I think it's the front desk calling for sure that messed things up the most for me. And if she felt uncomfortable already it likely wouldn't have been a great session for either of us. I'd rather everyone feel comfortable.

    Any tips for acting confident going in to the hotel? I had NO idea where the elevators were so it's hard to be confident when you have to walk in the door, pause, look around, then find where to go lol

    Stop and brush your feet off on the mat inside and while you do that scan for where the elevators are.

    I guess another piece to the nordic model is that if it's legal to sell then providers have some form of support and protection. Let's say someone sees a provider and assaults them. The provider then has the ability to go to the police and report the assault without risk to themselves. 

    Of course this same model also harms the buyer as I've heard of some people meeting and getting beaten and robbed (the purchaser in this case) and they of course have no recourse because they were technically doing something illegal.

    So I see the "protecting the providers" piece of it for sure but it's still weird. 

    Yep exactly, it's a convoluted strategy to make it somewhat safer for providers while still keeping it illegal for some reason. As you pointed out this creates an opening for  the providers to scam people with little concern for consequences. Obviously most of the scams aren't even from legit providers but you get what I mean. Like most government policies this wasn't thought through well at all, isn't even being enforced properly (no effort to crack down on buyers) and was probably more about having an excuse to spend money on "resources" and "education" than actually change the situation.

    Maybe I'm naive but how does that even work? It's legal in Canada for an escort (or other provider) to sell their services but it is illegal to buy those services from my understanding? Seems like Canada is confused. If it's legal to sell it should be legal to buy. I was going to say "make up your mind" but I guess that could then go in the wrong direction and become illegal both ways which would then likely cause more stings and issues for both the providers and purchasers...

    It's called the nordic model, and you are right to be confused because it makes zero sense. The theory is that suppliers are all victims and therefore it's wrong to criminalize them, so instead they exclusively target the demand side. If they take away all the demand, then it's no longer profitable to be a provider. They also provide "resources" to help providers leave the industry and "awareness and education campaigns for the public". I don't know what the hell that means beyond tax payer money giving some government consultant a cushy six-figure job.

    So that's the theory, but in practice it would be quite the undertaking to limit the demand to that extent. Based on what's been discussed in this thread it's clear they aren't even attempting to do this. Obviously if your goal is to end the industry you need to target both supply and demand (aggressively), and if you don't want to end the industry you should legalize both supply and demand (while probably adding some kind of regulations).

    is it possible that a real escort actually turn and work for the police, like an informant? just asking

    In other countries where both sides of the transaction are illegal that happens, but here It's legal for escorts to sell services so there's not really a way for the cops to leverage them. I suppose its possible if they were caught on some unrelated charge but that seems like a stretch. As has been mentioned there's virtually no history of stings around here, you should be far more concerned about being scammed/robbed by a provider than being caught up a sting.

    With these travelling girls, obviously they stay in hotels , anyone ever encounter issues with staff saying anything or questioning you?

    It's incredibly easy to blend in a hotel, you're far more likely to run into issues in a small apartment building or a house in a single family neighborhood. So long as you don't act like a moron and attract a lot of attention to yourself there's nothing to worry about.

    That's maybe a little concerning but also if that's really her commenting in this thread she may have asked for someone to leave a review if they had a good time. Makes some sense to me anyway.

    I'd wait until someone who has been here for a while leaves some feedback...

    I have never once seen a local Asian provider who wasn't a total bait and switch. I don't even bother anymore it's just a waste of time imo. It's not just the pictures either they regularly lie about the services offered as well. Best to wait for a traveling provider with good reviews if you insist on seeing an Asian girl. Looks like there's one in a few weeks.

    I just messaged Mia , mentioned she was recommended here but people mentioned her photos were fake , asked for a true one, she said her current ad is her? Guessing no?

    I'm pretty sure she has multiple ads with completely different pictures on each, I know for a fact she did that last time she was here. None of the pics are of her.

    Works the other way far too many times, we make a deposit, and the SP is a no-show. I don't see how deposits or IDs are too necessary in securing a client, if they can't make it to the appointment, then they can't make it, has nothing to do with the SP or there being a deposit or not. Having placed a deposit and shown their ID, is not an added incentive to not be a no-show, it's for different reasons if they can't show up. 🙂

    I've been cancelled on too many times, yes even by "reputable" providers I've seen before, to ever be willing to pay in advance. The no-show problem goes in both directions. It sucks for everyone involved but that's just the way people are I guess.

    BTW - the upscale, well established agencies in Toronto and MTL have screening and verification requirements too. 

    Yes, but these agencies actually act in a professional manner. If I book with them, I can be confident I will actually be getting the appointment, and if something goes wrong I will get a timely response addressing the problem. There is no recourse to follow when you get ghosted by an independent provider you gave a deposit to, aside from going on a forum like this and turning it into a game of he-said she-said.

    The ad was posted an hour ago and your topic coincides with it. I smell something fishy.

    Any bets on which of our wonderful local providers this is? Lmao. Here's some free advice for next time: make your sock puppet account now and build up your post count so you are at least somewhat credible when you try to sabotage the rare good option we get in this city. Hopefully they don't get a recommendation from someone who's been on here for 13 years first and maybe it'll work.

    I've jumped on twitter before but don't even know where to begin searching. To me it's more like a social app. Maybe I just don't know how to use it 

    It's too hard to search because like 95% of them won't even show up. Twitter is the only mainstream social media that allows porn but it will still suppress people that post it with the algorithm. You'll need to find some providers who post their account name here or elsewhere and then use that to find other providers that they follow/repost.

    Mr. Wilson is not "off the mark" re: the censorship here on Lyla, where the rule is "say something nice, or don't say anything at all"...but I do disagree, with his comment on the reviews. I, like many on here, leave legitimate reviews of positive interactions with ladies within the profession, both local companions, and touring. The important thing to note in my experience, is that we all have different wants/needs/likes, and YMMV (your mileage may vary) with each and every encounter, so what I felt was a great date with an SP, may not apply to everyone...

    This is a fair point, the big problem is that you get a skewed perception because only the positive feedback is allowed. Even a positive review may be forced to leave out key details; an overall positive experience could still have some negative aspects that may matter more to others. And then what to make of providers with no reviews? Are they a legit provider but everyone who's seen them had a negative experience? Has nobody seen them yet? Are they a scam? How about providers with tons of positive reviews that are years old but no recent ones? Did their service go downhill or did people just stop reviewing them? There's too much ambiguity which is not good considering the enormous proportion of scam ads.

    We don't have many options in Halifax, particularly in the massage department. On top of that many of the massage providers don't offer full service. Sydney has significantly less, so you're probably best sticking with Halifax. The closest thing to what you're looking for is probably the YFL agency, the girls are always dressed nicely and most of them offer massage as part of their routine, I imagine they'd be willing to spend more time on the massage and less on other stuff if you ask. I believe they always offer outcall, and In my experience they have always been far more professional than the independents I have seen in Halifax. They also travel regularly which means they have reviews on other websites (i.e. places where you can post positive and negative reviews). A google search of the providers name will be enough to find them.

    Unfortunately they aren't operating as regularly as they used to, so if you are only here once a month it may not line up for you. Most of the independents work sporadically as well, and many traveling providers end up cancelling their trips because they don't get enough interest.
