Look at smokers or fat people...these people might want to change, stop smoking, get fit, but dont till they have some event/reason that will cause them greater pain than if they keep the status quo.

Honestly, I agree with you. But this isn't the Sandbox. This isn't the place to discuss it.

I agree with you, but what we vote for doesnt matter,
My dog has overruled us both!

There is so much win here!

Don't dis me by offering less, but I just might decide to charge less if things are slow, or just because I'm horny.

Just like John Yoo is a defender of the Constitution...uh-huh.

Hey, it costs real money to convert an unfinished basement space into a jack shack!

LMAO!

Attempting to conflate "escort services" with a legitimate profession like law or accounting that have professional standards is sad. You might as well try to equate the Space Shuttle with a rickshaw, and say, "Well, they're both forms of transportation!!!"

Maybe it will get you a free HJ, though.

Which suggests that it's not about the money...

There's little doubt in my mind that the BCD activity will likely suffer if preceded by financial negotiation whereas one party (provider) may feel slighted by the other party (client) haggling over the price for the service

Which suggests that it really is about the money.

Can't have it both ways...

"Oh, that's not what I meant!. I mean that if you pay enough...well...nevermind..."

Why can't it be both? If all I cared about was money I'd put my college degree to use. If all I cared about was sex, I would go back to AdultFriendFinder.

Some of us are in fact blessed to have it both ways. The money is great and the sex is even better. Everyone should be so lucky. That still doesn't mean I will negotiate, or waste time talking to anyone who suggests it.

rude? how? she sets a price based on what she thinks, you offer what you think she is worth

she's rude and disrespectful to not negoate and if you dont try cause you are afraid of hurting her "feelings" or something, why dont you just give me some money and leave, it would be " rude and disrespectful!" to make her earn her money.

have I missed the poster who tried to negotiate and the lady hung up on him, tell him she doesnt do that?

Interesting....

Judging from your thoughts and your review I think I have an excellent answer for you....
Considering what you want and the fact that you like to negotiate you should really consider trolling the ave..

The SWs down there speak your lingo and you won't even have to leave your vehicle.....

I try to be as confusing as possible.

I am glad you are open to negotiating, I was uncertain if we had reached that level of comfort.

I had a dream where I gave the payment you desired and I asked for nothing in return. At the conclusion of our date, your requested form of payment was a beating. I had never heard of such a thing...... a beating, all he wants is a beating? I broke out my whip and I wasn't going to use it, but per your request, I obliged.

I proceeded to beat the shit out of you until you started begging for mercy. I briefly considered sitting on your face to get you to shut up, you know where that ended up. As a happy man with a big smile and marks down his back, you told me you were a telepathist and needed to be on your way. I didn't know you had brought another man with you, but great selection, Benjamin is always welcome.

This dream is the very reason why, when asked what I am willing to pay, I say I have exactly what you need........ and I bring my whip.
