Ahhh, should have posted this in clients who txt too much or some other thread but kind of went off my head and had to rant for a minute.
Just cancelled a booking because a guy who'd been txting me constantly since he made it, was suddenly silent the day of the booking when I asked him to confirm. It was supposed to be an overnight too and he'd made a deposit, and I'd met him and all that jazz. Obviously the guy was kind of on uppers, but I figured I could get through it. But it really pissed me off today when he didn't respond to my morning message asking if the booking was confirmed, and then contacted after our date was supposed to have begun telling me to come around as planned, that he fell asleep and hadn't checked his phone, and then asking why I hadn't just showed up. To which I had to say, no way, not coming if you're going to just treat my time as a game and not respect that I may have a f*cking life. Or something like that
Will teach me to mess with a guy who's probably on drugs. Should have just cancelled when he started txting me ALL THE TIME, but figured I could work through it, my mistake.
But what do you do about a deposit? I mean, technically he called up after the date started, and he had his fun with all the txts. Plus I wouldn't know how to get it back to him anyway. Would you return it? I just fear the repercussions of someone who's high and has too much time on his hands...
Also I feel like he's jerking me around, so he had his fun and took up a lot of my time, and I'm happy I got compensated something for it. Grrrr.
