Maybe I have just been very lucky but I normally only see P-411 providers and seldom have any problems. I also do a lot of homework and I pretty much know what to expect before I head to the appointment.
I NEVER ask them about their services.
So . . is "Ghosting" like being a no-show?By the responses I see many different interpretations.
Is it committing to multiple providers and only showing for one of them?

Because if she had any doubts about seeing you or not, you've just put them to rest.
edit: I'm referring to where no firm date and time has been scheduled and you were just exchanging texts/PMs. Once something is scheduled and if there is no cancellation, then that's just NC/NS. Originally Posted by cabletex7
Us not responding doesn't always mean "no".. Sometimes we are working and the breaks in between appointments, we just try to relax and restore ourselves/our energy. A lot goes into this job.. With actually seeing people, showering, make-up, hair, taking a moment to ourselves, answering emails, screening, some have other jobs, school work, maybe a child. Before I see someone, I have to hype myself up lol & for me, personally, I take time to relax because at the end of the day I'm a woman and I have to be ready for all the possibilities that could happen when I let a dude into my personal space...I love this! +1
But I am definitely ignoring someone who is not sending me a well-said introduction. We don't know how to respond to "Hey, Hi,Can I see you?, Babe?" it also makes me uncomfortable when I don't respond when someone thinks I should... and they send me hella aggressive "??" "??????" "U there?"... it just makes you seem pushy.
But if you hit me up, and you sound cool and not asking a bunch of weird questions.. Then, I am not saying "no"... And it's a cool way to reach out to someone again.. as long as the message shows me that your a respectful human or at least you're trying to be one, or faking it til you make it, effort is recognized and so it's not a "no".. It's cool to hit me up again.
Imagine someone walking up to you on a sidewalk, look you dead in the eye, and said "Hi" and just not breaking the eye contact... it would make you feel uncomfortable.
Well damn, this is getting long lol... basically I'm just saying it's not humanly possible to answer it all, sometimes it's just really poppin in my inbox or text messages but I'm only one person. I also have things going for me outside of this work, a personal life, and being 24..
It's not personal when we don't respond. But we are all human and we all need a break from having to answer to someone..

AS WELL AS ... the COST of the trip. IMO the "ghosting" is due to a more "attractive" opportunity (in their opinion) and/or a regular popped up FINALLY!
