Although I think you are referring to alcohol*, even worse is the stuff we can't talk about on this forum...

Personally, never happened to me. I would feel that in that scenario I wouldn't owe her anything, however, since she did set aside the time I would probalby leave something anyway. Originally Posted by discreetgentWhat a gentleman.
I would never show up inebriated to see a client, but if I were the guy, and was paying good money, I would tell her to leave, and no, I wouldn't compensate her because it's her unprofessional behaviour (showing up hammered) that created the awkward situation...Ditto. If a guy is paying to be with me why not be professional and show him some respect? Well said Val.
As far as gents showing up at my flat drunk (it's only happened a few times) and it was in London, I opened the door, took one look at them and told them to go, I would never put myself in danger by letting a drunk male I don't know in the same room as myself... Originally Posted by Valerie
Alcohol does help me ease the nerves; I most def indulge in a couple glasses of wine during a date but it's each persons responsbility to know their limits and maintain, out of respect for all parties, including themselves. Sometimes, tho, drunk happens. Then, to me, it would be completely acceptable for a guy to take a pass.

At my age, it affects performance, and don't want to pay for time when junior is impaired.
Getting sick is just no fun at all!! I can't believe she wouldn't give a heads up. I don't want anyone around me when I am sick. I believe we, as companions, have an obligation to offer you our very best selves. As much of a bummer as it would be to sit in a hotel room sick, I would cancel. Originally Posted by ClairJordanThis was the subject of a thread not long ago (the search button is your friend). As I recall, the consensus of people in that thread was that if either party is sick, the date should be canceled.

I'll suggest a combination of: needing the $, not wanting to dissapoint the other party & not wanting to get a reputation as being flaky.
