I just need some kind words after reading this jerks email and this forum was so helpful to me last time I posted.
This asshole called, I told him my fee, we made an appointment.
I know I should have collected the fee before we got going and I am a complete idiot not to. But he was a new client and I kinda have this hesitancy about asking for the money. And some of the reason I'm so naive is I've never had a problem. Anyways we got into it, and after he "asked" what my fee was, I told him 500 again, and he made up this complete lie about how he had read this review of me and contacted the man who posted the ad, who told him I was blonde and $200.
I know this is not true, cause I actually posted the review myself.
So he left 200, and said he would bring the rest the next time. I didn't believe him but I really didn't know what to do so I just played nice.
after a few email exchanges he told me I was not a PETITE blonde, my apartment was a mess, and my feet were dirty. I had just moved and the place really was a wreck but I let him know that from the get go.
And it's not as though I hadn't showered minutes prior to his arrival.
I just feel really fat, stupid, dirty, and used.
I don't know why he had to be so mean about things. I am so insulted . I'm trying to use it as motivation to work out harder, be cuter, all that good stuff. Any advice?
Any things that work to reaffirm your confidence after situations like this? I am going to go into the salon tommorow to get spruced up a bit. I really am a bit over my normal weight right now and his comment about how I wasn't petite is really really bothering me. I've had a borderline eating disorder before and was just starting to pull myself out of it. And in that process, yes I did gain 7 pounds.
Boo.. : ( frickin' hoo... I know, I know, stop being a sad sack!
Thanks in advanced for any help..
