This is twice this has happened to me today. I give the guys a choice of two landmarks near me with the idea of directing them in once they ring. When they follow that simple instruction I can get them in my block without them being spotted. I even explain my reasons for asking them to call from where they do. That is for discretion. Twice I've had guys ring and they decided themselves to park elsewhere and by coincidence once was right outside door and the other was past my door where they would be seen walking back to my block. On both occasions I told them to leave. Grrr

It's your prerogative to do so. It's not worth compromising your identity or anything else. Did you re-request they follow your initial instructions prior to sending them away? x

I have personally experienced on two occassions guys turning up very late after much confusion and many apologetic calls or texts only to have too little money. I am certain that both of them did this deliberately - they think that by making us invest so much of our time and energy into seeing them we'll settle for whatever they've got. One of them I agreed to a quickie and it was a nightmare as he tried to stretch it out and push boundaries. I absolutely called time on him, after pointedly staring at the clock. The second it hit fifteen minutes I got up and told him to get out. The other time he tried to use a ruse of role play to avoid paying immediately and once he realised that I wasn't going to play along he left.

So, if a guy is going to mess me about, I will be prepared to turn him away with "I'm so sorry but it's now too late for our booking to begin" or just chuck him out when he's got too little money. I did so the other night - he hadn't played games getting to me but had too little money and I just said, "OK! Back out into the cold you go!"

Twat.

Tell me about it. Some guys are just thick. I told a client 3 times to call me once he got to my nearest landmark and I'd give directions.. What does he do? He texts to say he's arrived!  And then is not able to follow simple directions to my flat that most people understand in a few seconds!

This is actually quite a common occurrence, but it really does my head in! I have to really hold back the annoyance when I finally let them in my door.

For some reason some people think that texting is polite, and non-intrusive. Yes it can be, but if I need to speak,  sending a text adds in an extra step. If they are outside I'll just phone them.
