Given the HUGE number of no-shows by girls that happen all the time, I will never get a room until the girl shows up at the hotel. . . . . that's one of the first rules that a guy learns about the hobby...NEVER get the room before a girl shows up. Now you're asking that a guy do something that goes against everything that he has learned and everything that guys here have been told. . . . You're very new to this site and have a very short history. Guys here have been ripped off for years by girls that no-show and yet you want us to overlook that and follow your "rules" - rules that are set by a girl that is very new to the hobby and doesn't have anywhere near the experience that many guys here do.

Whenever I book a room, I get it on hotwire or priceline and already have the room number. I book with reliable providers. My way works for me and I'm sure I'm not the only one who does it that way.
If a guy already has a room number, then the chances of him not showing are much less than if the guy just says he'll meet the provider there and get the room when she shows. I can certainly see why a provider would choose not to see a guy who doesn't have a room.
You should do what works for you, I'll do what works for me, and let Bree Anna do what works for her without brow beating her.
other than the rate shaft he was nice. Sai
