Scared at the thought of doing gay for pay. Relieved at the thought of making money. Wondering if it's for real, or all a dream. Wondering whether I'm actually worth the 130 I'm asking for. I guess that when something has a value, it has a price, but that the reverse is true too: if something has a price, someone will buy it and give it a value.

How do you tell a timewaster, or predict whether someone will show up?

Well newbies do get a lot of timewasters, fantasists and so on but provided the bloke made a straightforward call/sent an email stating when he wanted to book and how long for without any sex chat, and didn't go on about his massive cock and suchlike, there's no reason to be over-concerned. The TW-spotting instinct comes with time, but there's a lot of screening information on both the main site and the forum too - is it an incall or an outcall?

Assuming you've set your boundaries in terms of services and so on, the best advice anybody here can give is not to let on that it's your first booking (you can say you're new, just not that new) and to relax and get on with it. Then you'll have some money, and you won't ever have to do it again if you don't want to .

Fair point. I should rephrase to "The only kind of picture I couldn't send him"

You will get alot of timewasters as Amy says.A good way of wheedling them out if they do book is to get them to confirm if they have booked for longer than a couple of hours time.If its outcall at a hotel always get the room number before you set off and always ring them in their room.You will find loads of pointers though.Have a good read through the site or put timewasters in the search facility at the top of the page.
