This is a guy that I have known for years so WTF is he thinking and I've lost a good client who paid well always 2/3 hours and is a lovely bloke in all other ways
I often think whenever I see one of "my regular" clients, it's going to be the last time. I dislike people stepping on my boundaries. After all, they are clients. I never had anyone/clients visiting me for "many years" but I'm sure the longer you see them, the boundaries get blurred over time.
I guess, men may start to see you as "a friend" as he had "invested" in you (money-wise/time-wise)by using your services exclusively over such a long period of time. I had one client, who expected me to throw myself at him for free after a couple of times (but that's just another extreme). This is why having a regular, is a tricky business. I admit that I have gone off-topic here. Perhaps, another thread regarding "long-term regulars" would be quite handy, Paris.
