I guess I'm kind of torn on what to do in the hobby anymore :(
When we have been together, it has been nothing but good. Do what your heart tells you. You won't be forgotten, though.

Well, I think her heart tells her she wants to keep providing...it's the business angle she is having trouble with. Hopefully rather than just using this thread, she will do stuff, like the excellent advise SillyGirl gave her.
As you know cici, this profession is not an easy one. Not finding a future in it does not in anyway speak badly of you.
But, like any of business, you need to work it. Like getting ur showcase up, having a valid website, interacting (ie marketing) on this site, having a 411 account, etc, etc.
Yes times are changing, but like any other business, you adapt or tap out.
Certainly your available time may be limited. That's not a good/bad thing...it's your time to manage. But if you want to let others know when those time opportunities are follow some of above steps...and perhaps listen to the providers who know what they are doing.
And regarding N/S's...don't know, or care to know about what was mention eariler in this thread. Reality is, we all have personal lives which sometimes does not permit us to make appointments. THE KEY is, did you communicate with the person,AT THAT TIME??? If so, then that stuff happens. IF not, IMO, if a girl (or guy) does not communicate at the time...I really don't give a shit, later on what was the reason was.
Wish the best.
CiCi, you've been at this 9 years, if you're burned out, get out and find a more traditional life. Any guy who wouldn't love coming home to you everyday obviously doesn't have a pulse. I doubt you're really looking for advice on how to run your business from a bunch of guys with 1 year experience on here, so, If what you're really wanting to know is: are you still desirable? can you "compete" with the 20 yr olds? will guys go out out of their way to be with you? the answer is HELL YES!!! to all the above
A bad vibe? Really? I still have your pm from 48 hours after our appointment but I truly wish you the best so we'll go with my bad vibe.....

Point taken. Thanks for the advice Fritz. I don't do rejection well & should have shut up.
put yourself in her shoes, would YOU go and lock yourself in a private motel room with yourself after all this?
I don't know anything, beyond what is written in this thread...but where does this rharley character get off being the judge and jury...
If either provider or guy has/had bad vibes, then of course the appt should be cancelled. But whoever has the bad vibe, should not wait until after 48hrs afterwards...I mean come on, a little courtsey is always nice.
And rharley's BS comment about getting advice from guys with "just 1 year experience".
I have no doubt, that like myself, there are many others (guys and gals) on this site, that have forgotten more, than he'll ever know about dealing with people in general.
BTW sorry CiCi about highjacketing your thread...and I certainly did not mean to come off preachy, if so I apologize

But thank you to everyone with encouraging words as well as offering up wisdom I greatly appreciate you all
