Hello! Long time since I started a thread. But I was having a little trouble with a gentleman I was trying to schedule and since there is no private venue to vent in I guess I will just post it here. Maybe it will even be beneficial to have it out here for everyone to see!
So one day last week, a very nice and polite hobbyist texts me (and I do prefer text and he was very polite so already going good) saying he has seen me on P411 and he asks am I close to the airport.
Ok right off the bat, even though it seems we started off on the right foot, he is already asking me am I near the airport. It says all over EVERYTHING I have that I am at 75 & Park or 75 & G.Bush. So I get this sinking feeling that this is just someone not serious and he is just going to ask me a bunch of questions and not book (which in fact is what happened). All I can think everytime I get a question that is something I have specifically posted on my site is "omgosh, this hobbyist has not even taken the time to read about me and I am going to have to reiterate everything I put so much time and effort into posting for you guys."
I ask SEVERAL times for him to please send me his info via P411 so I can screen him and to verify it is really him I am communicating with...which he does not do. Since he has not sent me his P411 I am on guard and I am treating him totally different than I would have treated someone who has contact me through P411 with OK's that I can look at, etc. I suspect this is part of why he didn't book (double edged sword, right?).
He ask me some semi-personal info which I am uncomfortable answering because of the whole not sending me a note on P411 so I can see who it is I am really talking too. Asks me if my incall is private (this is something I take for granted that everyone knows...am I wrong, I really want to know).
So the long and short of it is that he loses interest in me...or maybe there was never any interest in the first place and he was just fishing around trying to find someone he could say he saw them on P411 and then she would just see him without verifying it? I honestly cannot say for sure.
Also a side note he said the fact that I have few recent reviews was a factor. Gosh I can't force everyone I see to write a review...and if us girls could do that the board would crash! It would be overloaded!!! Seriously though, I prolly get one review for every 50 to 100 people I see. My guys just don't review, heck most of them aren't even registered board members! Lurkers
Girls, does this sound familiar?
Guys, any feedback?
Oh and I am totally not meaning to be negative. Actually he seemed like a nice guy...but we just didn't connect, I think mostly because after the 2nd time I asked for P411 and still didn't get it that my guard went up super high. I am suspecting that caused me to come off like somewhat of a "B" or that I was "stand-offish."
Anyway, hopefully I get some positive feeeback, and also maybe the guys can see why when you are trying to schedule with a lady who doesn't know you that until you contact us via P411 or we check your references we just can't be too careful. Even a PM from here so we see who you are is helpful (but of course does not substitute for screening).
Oh, and I almost forgot! Do the guys read our info that we put up? Or do you just find it easier to contact us and ask a buch of questions? Just honest curiosity on that one.
