Text OTC….

[Jenesis 294]

So I have a couple of guys that text me off the clock. One says Good Morning every weekday morning. Most times I reply, sometimes I don’t. Convos are not long and sometimes it is just a GM back and forth and that is it.

Well, I was told by an escort that is wrong. I shouldn’t do it and it undermines other escorts who keep contact strictly to booking or in-person. If texting a package has to be purchased.

Now I have/had a texting package for my mistress packages. Pre-COVID of course. Haven’t been able to get back to those packages just yet. That is for daily texting, multiple times a day, etc. So I think of them differently.

So am I wrong for having light chitchat sometimes? Does it undermine other escorts and their efforts to make money. I mean we don’t condemn the girl who loves sex and gives it for free. So why should I get shit on for sending some light chitchat texts.

This escort went as far as making a poll on Twitter for other escorts. She since deleted but a lot of escorts agreed with her. Am I missing something here? We are talking a handful of clients only that I may speak to like this. One client has seen me twice a month for 3 years pre-COVID. We developed a friendship over time and that was a $18K income over those 3 years. I think I can have a two second convo that is non-transactional with a client like this.

  No matter if by txt, email or pm, I don't see anything wrong with small talk. Ladies should feel free to keep contact with regulars and future patrons without being judged on their way of doing business.

  If some feel threatened by such freedom, they can work under management and not communicate directly with clients until fully compensated.

  Having experienced both ways. I much prefer an independent woman with the capacity of making her own decisions.

  But, to each their own.

Personally, 

The point of discretion comes to mind.  I know one particular sp hounds her clients ( my pal being one of them). I find this completely unprofessional.  For my sp and I, she respects my privacy.  It is up to me to contact her for appointments. 

Despite having seen her for over a yr, the boundaries  are clear: I do not needlessly contact her and she never contacts me. That fact doesn't lessen our connection, or mean we haven't  developed  a report; but it does mean we each know the parameters of the arrangement.

How you communicate, and with whom, and when, and whether you expect to be paid for it... are entirely your business, and nobody else's. Every escort decides for themselves what they do, and who with. Trying to police other folks' behaviour the way that it seems is going on here is a douchebag move.

To illustrate how stupid this is: look at what happens if you make it a general rule. Once we start saying "You shouldn't do X because it undermines other escorts who don't do it"... where does that end? Should you stop offering services that other people don't? Clock-watch more, because they do? Raise your rates so you don't undercut anyone? Lower them so you don't look elitist? Stop doing incalls because some other people don't? Stop doing outcalls because some other people don't?

Maybe the solution to these people is to invite them to come up with a set of universal practices to which all escorts must adhere, and then grab some popcorn and sit back while they fight over it. And just stir the pot a little more if it looks like they're calming down. That's probably not the most mature or sensible solution, but it might be fun and it would go some way towards making up for the unnecessary irritation they cause you.
