References When Has It Been Too Long ?

Ok I don't mind giving a reference if you have seen me like in the last three months but if it's been years then I don't feel comfortable telling a fellow provider that you're ok if I can't remember you ...I won't put my reputation on the line just to stay in someone's good graces , I apologize if this pisses anyone off but it puts me on the spot when I get a reference request and it's from someone who openly admits its been years ..really ? I want to keep other ladies safe , and if I don't remember anything about the guy how can I do that ? , I will gladly give references if I've seen you recently ...and everyone knows that ..but please don't keep using me if its been a while I would greatly appreciate it ...ok rant over

Reminder over.
I know , and I thought about that before I posted this but I figured after all the reference requests I've been getting lately from guys I haven't seen in years that a reminder was in order , so that the new ladies would understand why I'm hesitant when they ask about someone I don't remember ...

Well it sounds like people didnt remember, or never read, after a few months. There are lots of new faces and returning faces that could probably benefit from hearing again, unless you would rather a "sure he is fine" from two years ago that may or may not be who he says he is.
I agree!

I would say three months is the limit.... After three months the guy has to have seen someone more recently who would provide a more accurate reference.

I am guilty of going over the 3 month period, but I do stat active and will recommend the ladies I use for screening when appropriate. I am guilty of doing that with Allison and a few others. I do think 3 months is fair. More than a year is rediculous.
I just use p411. Once a lady ok's you, it stays up for ever..
