I really don't think fussy is the right word to use when you consider the risk of just inviting anyone into your home. For the sake of peace of mind and your safety, I think you're perfectly justified to set a bar on what you're willing to tolerate.

I turn down a lot of people based on their initial communication if I don't like the tone or they haven't made any effort to read my profile. I don't take repeat bookings from people I wasn't keen on first time around just for the sake of taking a booking. I can't abide text speak so that's another one off my list. I set a standard for myself and it works. I rarely get time wasters and I always meet my max limit of how many people I'll see in a day.

THIS IS EXACTLY ME!! And your right, fussy maybe isn't the right word but at least everyone knows what we mean when we say fussy  :-*

I would say I turn away about half. I need to feel like I'm going to get on with them otherwise I would despise this job.

This is exactly how I feel. I love my job because I see good people. As I said, I get a real buzz from it.

On the odd occasion where I have a bad booking with someone, my blood runs a little cold and I'm left feeling quite upset. I couldn't do the job if I had to go through that every day.

So I do my absolute best to avoid it from happening and that means being fussy about who I see.

And anyway, when inviting someone you don't even know into your own home to then have sex with you....you don't need a reason or an excuse not to see someone.
yes Kendra but what do you say ? I find that hard if they sound ok ish but I'm not comfortable ?

Sorry I'm not available and then save their number. Be polite. There's no need to be arsey to someone that hasn't been arsey to you.

I only find it difficult to remain polite when someone is down right rude or offensive to me.

"On the odd occasion where I have a bad booking with someone, my blood runs a little cold and I'm left feeling quite upset. I couldn't do the job if I had to go through that every day."

Likewise, I had two fantastic meets the other day and the last one of the day just left me fuming. For the most part, I was angry at myself for not cancelling the booking when I got the inkling we weren't likely to get on. Initial comms had been great but something in the communication that day left me cold - should have gone with my instincts.

Any responses from me whether verbal or texting are never ever rude.
We know some men are getting into the habit of displaying screenshot images of messages which I find worrying. No text to a man I have turned down will ever include anything I would regret saying and can hold my head up that if I decide not to see someone whether new or known to me, it is usually just a courteous "sorry I have no availability left today" or something similar, then I store the number to ignore if there is a future call from him.

To answer the OP's question, I feel I am turning down more dodgy sounding ones lately than in the past but still a small number, perhaps 2 or 3 a week at a guess.

I'd love to fix the quotes in GuiltyPleasures post two above but I can't make head or tail or it - could we please try to be a bit more careful? I'll have another look when I get on a laptop.

I don't work from home, but that doesn't make me any less picky. If a caller isn't obviously immediate block material (where I end the call and hang up) then I have a kind of mental points system like an amber light rather than a red one. If they sound otherwise OK but do one of the things on it like not addressing me by name or greeting me properly, referring to bookings as 'meets' or asking if I'll 'meet up' with them (which for whatever reason is a pet hate of mine), asking for times/days I don't work and so on I'll let it go and carry on the call so they have a chance to get it right, but more than one and I'm suddenly fully booked for ever :).

Most of the things are the same as the ones mentioned above, and the majority of people I turn away are those I've never met - I have a couple who still call that I wouldn't see again if I was starving in the street and I just don't engage with them at all; they're the ones who I don't even block because I don't want them to twig and get another number. I also turn bookings down if I'm too tired and about to go home which is lazy, but if I can't do my job properly I'd rather they came another time when I'm a bit more on the ball :D.

In terms of numbers I probably turn down two or three a day. More when touring, but then touring generates more daft calls, I find.

I would say 2 out of 3 calls I take as long as they sound like a normal human being and are aware of what I offer for what price, I usually ask them a few questions kind of like a script and if they answer 2 of them in a way that I don't like I hang up without even letting them carry on the conversation.

I'm not 'picky' I just hate timewasters as we all do. Some calls I know just from the greeting that they have no intention of ever making a booking with me or anyone else for that matter.

After saying the other day about rarely getting asked for a discount I have now in the past few days had a spate of them...One client who I've seen before phoned/texted late yesterday afternoon wanted me to meet him in his hotel and when I said I wasn't available he said he would "Make it worth my while" Um no it doesn't quite work like that I charge a set hourly rate  ::)  Told him a straight no after his stupid comment.  And another today texting wanting me to see him tonight, I explained that I generally don't work on Sundays as its my day off, he pleaded that he wanted 2 hours so I was considering it..So then when I told him I would confirm by 9pm whether or not I can make it and was it 2 hours he wanted, he had the cheek to say "Only if you do me a deal ?150! I said no so he replied saying "Alright ?175" Almost told him to fuck right off but then I just replied "Don't you understand how insulting it is to barter over a person!!" He then had the cheek to say could we do an hour  :FF

I turn away 9 out of 10 folk. Even someone calling me babe or Hun is enough for me to turn someone away! I'm way to fussy and if I dont change my ways I will end up seeing no one.

I wouldn't turn someone away for that as I don't think thats anything bad personally.

But I do cringe when someone calls me baby, I don't see people that call me that.
