Cutting out a regular: let him know or just block?
« on: 06 June 2016, 07:13:53 pm »
I have a regular that I just can't stand anymore. He's perfectly fine and we never had any problems but his mannerisms are so annoying that I decided to not see him again. I've been ignoring his texts and for the last couple of weeks but today he called from a different number - I just told him I was busy. Should I let him know that I won't be seeing him anymore or just block him and forget about it? I don't know... since he hasn't really done anything wrong I feel like blocking him would be kinda rude? But that could be an awkward conversation.

How have you dealt/would you deal with this?

I've cut contact with one or two recently who have overstepped the mark or have irritated me in one way or another. It's not easy or nice but sometimes a basic, "I will not be taking your bookings, please do not contact me" works. I've only had one prompt me for an explanation and he got it. If you say nothing or block, there's a fair chance they may try again under a different number or profile.

I'd tell him, then be firm and block if necessary.

It's not nice just to block him with no explanation - just keep it short, sweet and firm.

I've blocked a fair few guys that I have seen before. A few I have told outright why I wont be seeing them again. They sure are persistant in begging for a second chance.

The clients can stop seeing us without an explanation and we can do the same but it is possible to let them down gently. I have done this with several long term repeat clients who I felt I could not bear another session with. My usual method is first of all not to answer the call if that is their contact because I am a yellow bellied coward and I will then text them or email if appropriate and say something on the lines of "sorry but I will not be able to meet you again"

They have responded in various ways but if they persist in knowing why I have been known to dodge the real issue and just say I think we have exhausted what we can find stimulating together, or words similar.

They may take offense if you tell them the ugly truth.  You might get some abuse or something else. I generally dislike "regulars" .  Even if there was some chemistry to begin with, it's hard going, I find.  Avoid having regulars. 

Personally, just keep telling them you are not available.  If they persist, avoid them and block if they go on.  Men don't take reasons.  They just go mad or give you some grief, blackmailing etc.  just tell them you got so busy.

I think avoiding and blocking without being slightly vocal about the point you don't want to see them makes them more inclined to give you grief. You're in a position of control and should take it so if you don't want to see someone, say so. Get straight to the point or face weeks/months of someone calling asking if you're free now or contacting you from different aliases...if you ask to stop all contact and they persist, they get one warning that it'll be deemed harassment and report it. That's it.

Maybe a kinder way to get the same message across is "I will not be taking further bookings, please do not contact me" - best not to make it personal if possible.

That's a valid point, I don't remember my exact words but I'm always fairly to the point, I may have said either or in different cases. For people I don't want to upset, I do try to apply a nicer tone but for those who are deserving, I don't waste my time. X

I just tell them that I think I'm falling in love with them and that it would cause too much pain to see them again. That always does the trick lol.  ;D ;D

It's funny how we are all so different in how we go about our business.

I love my regulars and genuinely get excited to see them.

Of course I've had to stop seeing the odd client for whatever reason and in this case, I've just been honest with them but polite as to why I think they should move on to someone else. I can't think off the top of my head any of them that have gave me abuse because of it. Who knows what they're saying behind my back but directly, I've had nothing....just an apology.

Very smart :-) But I'm not sure I'd be able to pull that one with "grumpy Joe" who's 80 years old, always arrives 20 min late and when I yell at him he lets me know he's not wearing his hearing aid.

I'm a wuss and just ignore them forever more. I think telling them only means they'll start asking why or try and convince you otherwise.
Eventually they get the message and leave me alone. Engaging with them only encourages them!

Most regulars don't bother telling us when they decide not to see us any more, they just vanish so I feel no guilt about it.

I duno, people always say just block but it's never worked for me.  I've never succesfully blocked many clients that I wanted to drop. A. because they can still make bookings on AW Despite being blocked & leave feedback which is silly & B. Because they'll just hit you up on a different number to ask at least why. and C. in some cases they come to my door hoping i'm ok wondering if something has happened to me . Don't get me wrong they do get pissy when you tell them why BUUuuutttt it's much less mentally draining dealing with 1 stroppy email than constantly battling away their booking attempts. I find it's split, some respect the word no, but most are being blocked for a reason like boundry pushing or being intolerable or whatever so yea they do get snippy.
