Oh, OK. So, in that case, if an SP offers to provide FS, and then only gives the guy a $500 covered handjob, he hasn't been 'ripped off' - he's been 'seduced'.
Uh huh.
Nope ripped off. She agreed to FS and provided none. It's very clear.

If I decide to exercise discretion and not rifle through the envelope my client hands me so I can count every bill, and he still shorts me, he hasn't 'seduced' me - he's ripped me off.
Then you would be in a strict minority. The ladies I meet, treat this as an up-front cash business. They take the money and leave the room and don't return immediately. Clearly taking enough time to count it. Some count it in front of me so if it is short we can both see at the same time. Though it has been a while since we have met, you were no exception to that rule. That's not a complaint. I'm not a regular so I don't expect to be treated like one. Though I don't want to ruin things for anyone else, you were worth way more than you charged

If a client doesn't voluntarily offer me my fee, and then either has none of it, or only part of it, he hasn't seduced me - he's ripped me off.
Only if you provide the service without ensuring you have been paid, which is the standard. We know it. we dont get offended when you count it. We expect you to so we know where we stand. Indeed this whole thread is about gents who pay up front and then don't receive advertised services, or any services, and in some cases there are demands for more money if they want any kinds of services at all. Some guys throw good money after bad and that's their folly. I learned by letting it happen to me once. Through an agency called Moon Flower or something like it in the 80s. It still happens but I'm not naive enough to give her any more money. If I realize I am not going to receive advertised services, I get my pound of flesh another way. I sit and chat for my 30 or 60 minutes about politics and business asking for nothing sexual whatsoever. After all Im not going to get a refund or the desired service and I haven't cum yet so why leave? I'm paying for her time (the mantra of the service withholder). In one case she tried to rush me out anyway so I just said OK let me use the bathroom and I'll get out of your way. Then I made her incall location unbreathable for the next guy.

The relationship between escort and client isn't supposed to be one of adversaries engaged in subterfuge and low level warfare - it's supposed to be a symbiosis. You engage us, you pay us, we offer you quality entertainment and good sex in exchange, all parties depart happy. Simple. We all of us need each other, in equal measure.
I agree. I wish I lived and hobbied in your universe all the time, but I seek variety and look what happens. But appointments don't always unfold the way we want them, do they? This brings us to the principal reason for the creation of this forum and the topic of this thread.

Do some SPs rip off clients? Sure. Do some clients rip off escorts? Of course. But let's hope none of the parties engaged in this discussion have been or can be accused of that...
Without polling I can guarantee you there isn't a client on this forum that can't tell a story of being cheated, short shifted, up priced, held at arms length after the full cash payment willingly and cheerfully changed hands.

If we get to the point where we're all looking at each other with mistrustful eyes, expecting every moment to get ripped off, and hating each other in advance, it's time to take up new hobbies, and new careers.
I hope not. For my part it's just part of the price of hobbying-- though I wish it wasn't. It's not like all SPs are dishonest, but enough have done me wrong that I find it hard to trust anyone. Even still my ratio of good to bad "dates" is better than my ratio for honest to dishonest mechanics.
But let's face facts. It's a lot easier to take someone's money and not provide a half-hour or hour of advertised services than the other way around. The SPs on this board who have been ripped off more than once, because they didn't count their money in advance, have only themselves to blame. Have faith in your religion, your family, or your alarm clock, but not your clientelle.
