Arrived in a new tour location today. Accepted a booking from a new client for tomorrow. 45mins later get a long and in depth text message explaining that since booking (30mins ago) his wife had been taken ill. Gone in to a coma and been given 24hour to live but he was really sorry he couldn't make it, was thinking about me and really wanted to see me another time..

My question.. Why on earth do so many men who cancel (the ones who bother to cancel of course) feel the need to lie so obviously and elaborately about it?

This was such an obvious and extreme lie I have to wonder what he got out of sending it?  He was a day before so cancelling wouldn't have been a problem regardless of the reason.

Does anyone want to share their best (worst)  elaborate cancellation/no show excuses?

What gets me is that *IF* this were true, the last thing on the guys mind should/would be to contact an escort to cancel their booking. So I think they probably enjoy the drama queen aspect of the cancellation.

Some folks are just compulsive liars and you meet a bunch of them being an escort funnily enough. I think they get enjoyment from spinning tales and they can't help it even when their stories get more and more ridiculous. I don't even need a reason for them to cancel I'd rather they just say they can't do the appointment so I can maybe offer it to somebody else but I always get a call 10 minutes before I'm leaving or even on my way I get a text with some nonsense excuse about random dead relatives.

This is slightly different but I once had an enquiry from a guy who said he was just waiting on his wife dying of cancer then he will be over to see me, he said it just like that......I was so shocked at how he put it then I declined his booking.

Why did he have to tell me that at all?

Back to your question though, I guess we will never know if he is lying or not which is why I always give the benefit of the doubt.

People I've never met before get one more chance if they let me down the first time.

People I have met before gets 2 more chances before I deem them as unreliable and will be unlikely to take another booking from them.

Thing is though, escorts can be really unreliable too and come out with all sorts of excuses which means that if any of us non time wasting escorts have to cancel for a genuine reason (like time of the month) then it makes us look bad.

Yep crazy excuses - had one this morning his car had been torched and blew up in his driveway     I thought oooh nice escape he obviously lives in a dreadful neighborhood what on earth would he be like !!

These sorts are serial Time Wasters, I am sure they book several women in a crazy hardon or drunken state 

I had one who said his wife's brother in law was in a coma
I wonder if it's the same guy always puts your name at the end of the texts

I had a guy on the phone who started droning on and on about how his wife had died of cancer, going on about how he really needed sex or something and I just felt disgusted with him. Like, either he was simply lying or he was using this tragedy to get sympathy from me. So I interrupted him and said, "Can I ask you something? Did your wife really die of cancer or did you bore her to death?" And then I hung up on him.

You crack me up!  I wish I had your quick wit at times! 

You know what I think?  I think these deluded sad timewasters secretly hope if they come out with some bullshit yarn or hard luck story, then it will prompt us to either discount etc etc or Lord knows even see the sad twats for free. 

Unfortunately anything is possible, guys can have accidents etc.  Until it happens to you, you cannot really understand...... I really got annoyed once, when, on my way to a massage which I booked months in advance as I tend to do for my massages, I had a shoe heel snapping in two.  I had to cancel the massage and re-book it for one week later as they had no other openings.  That was the beginning of 'shoe heels snapping' period in which I lost more than 5 pairs, one week after another.  Why is so expensive to change the whole heel?
