I absolutely hate having to ask for the money, feels so awkward but it doesn't stop me doing it though.
If a client comes in and asks for the toilet straight away, I sometimes forget then suddenly it pops into my head mid whatever, I will stop and ask them as I don't know how many times clients have went to walk out without paying whether they have forgotten genuinely or not.
And the 2 times I have completely forgotten was once with a guy I had never met before who was young and had such a vile attitude, he turned up expecting a shit load of things I didn't do from lap dances to oral without so was pissed off at me because it's not the sort of service I offer when it was completely his fault (now I always, always ask on the phone if a new client has read my profile and is happy with what I offer) so when I asked for the money at the end when it popped into my head, he threw me ?50 which was ?80 less than my rates at the time and said that's all I was worth. If a man reads and accepts my profile then I'm worth every penny but to this ignorant arsehole thinking he could turn up and do whatever he wants and get tonnes of stuff I didn't do then obviously he was in for a disappointment through no fault of mine. The other was a client that I had seen many times and was always a 2 hour booking, never had any problems with him and I genuinely thought he was a decent guy but when he realised he managed to get away from my place without paying (took about an hour after he left before I realised) he blocked me on his iPhone and deleted his account on AW so I ended up having to threaten him using another number that obviously he hadn't blocked, he ended up paying the following day and came up with some excuse even although his actions with blocking me and deleting his AW profile were guilty as hell.
This is the sex industry and unfortunately, loads and loads of guys think we're vulnerable (which we are) so therefor think they can do whatever they like as most of the time they are an anonymous person with no come back. The industry is filled with chancers so you should never feel guilty about asking for the money first.
Some taxi drivers ask for the money up front (if it's ?20 fare and up) because they know themselves that people sometimes are a fucking joke so why can't we ask upfront and not feel bad about it?
Most guys though do pay without asking or leave it on the side which is the way it should be.
