I'm back, and I missed you guys so much!  Well, actually I got back Sunday night, but I had a butt load of stuff to catch up with like emails, calls, and clients.  It's amazing how behind you become when you take a vacation or time off.  I came home to approximately 300 emails, 30 voice mails, and a mail box full of Birthday cards.  I'm kind of disappointed that more clients didn't call and wish me a Happy Birthday since so many of them claim to feel so close to me, and love me so much!  I actually only got Birthday wishes from my one client Roger, who I adore!  THANK YOU Roger!

I'm going to start rewarding my more considerate clients as an incentive to treating me a little better.  Don't get me wrong; I'm treated extremely well by most men, but they start to take advantage of my kindness after while.  I think they become so accustomed to being treated so well by me, that they forget that I'm offering a service and not some free affair!  Nothing is free with me, not even an emotional or sexual affair!  What will I gain out of helping a man escape him marital realities without being compensated?  NOTHING!

I seriously don't think that my clients realize how emotionally and physically draining it is trying to give the emotional and sexual attention that they lack at home!  Just imagine having to do this 3 and 4 times a day!  Now keep in mind that I enjoy what I do immensely, but if I may be honest, majority of the joy is the financial rewards I receive.  I believe that if most clients fully accept the fact that the major benefits to this service is the money, then none of us will ever feel cheated.  To me it's just common sense, but for some it's a bit more complicated.

Take my regular client K for instance.  He sees me faithfully every week, and because he's such a faithful client, I give him a pretty hefty discount.  Well,  K has started to do everything that annoys me, such as asking for bigger discounts and eating my time.  I finally had to put the fiasco to an end because seeing him became an annoying chore that made me feel cheated in the end.  When I finally confronted him about his ways, his reply was:  "Oh I thought we had more than a client/hooker relationship"!  Um, why would I have that with a married man?  What would I gain out of helping you have an affair without being paid?  Men need to ask themselves these questions when they feel the need to take advantage of us.  It's just not worth loosing that good client/provider relationship!  We should always try and stay in each other's good graces, instead of each other's Shit List!   Hookers have needs too you know!
