My top 10 reasons "Newbies" are declined services

Am I not thinking this through?

You are right Wizard. My bad. I do not know what I was thinking.

Oops, I'm guilty of some of the lesser offenses! I don't get to enjoy the hobby as much as I'd like too and made some of those mistakes but they won't happen again. I appreciate posts like this as I can't really afford to make any mistakes that raise red flags since I don't have references.

You have some very nice reviews but I must point out that one was written by a newbie..

Ya know...the perpetual kind....

Glad to see you're still the same buddy. Haha

So. ... Because I'm not active on THIS board it's a reason to not see me? Hmmm. Back to plan B

GFE WOW
Fees should be clearly posted and for additional services, bring cash.

Bring cash???

I've learned, (the hard way) to only bring the donation agreed upon for the time scheduled. If you up sell I walk away. I do not haggle with what you ask and I expect it to be the truth so why would I bring anything extra. Of course that does not include a tip for providers I have seen before and know will be worth the tip for their time.

Also, I am be no means new to this hobby, but hate doing the reference thing. I guess that will be changing since so many of you here expect it, but I just value my privacy and am very secretive about my hobby. I hate associating who I am with any accounts I may have or phone numbers I use. Call me paranoid, but it has kept me safe for a very long time.

That's just my opinion though...

I love tips but dont expect them, but hate to be told its an up sale for extra "things"

Personally I feel if it isn't listed on your menu and you do extra things then it is upsell.

What does me joining today have anything to do with my comment???

I've been in this game a very long time, just because I joined this site today does not mean I am new to the hobby...just new to this site.

What other boards are active like this one in KC?
I agree, some people don't have time to post and participate. It shouldn't dictate your decision to date someone. That's why we have screening. Yes, it does help! But some men just can't commit to that so it should also be considered if that's their reasoning behind a lack of posts. Also, Eccie isn't always the #1 board in other cities. So people only log in while in KC.

ElumEno I only attached the link of the discussion to point you in the proper direction sweetie.
I was only trying to stay on topic. My personal definition depends on my client. The more frequently I see them the more comfortable I become in my GFE.

How many girlfriends have you had that started off wit CIM right from the start? and if she did, thats a keeper!

[CryptKicker]

There is a difference in civilian girlfriends and hobby girlfriends. If you advertise GFE then you should be GFE from the start since many gents will only see you once every several months.

[topekarain]

You dont get everything on the menu for a dollar at McDonald's?

[CryptKicker]

And you clearly don't fully understand the definition of GFE.
