As an escort, it’s crucial to prioritize your safety and comfort above all else. There may be occasions when a client arrives, and you immediately sense something is off. The reasons for this can vary: the client might be drunk or under the influence of drugs, lacking in personal hygiene, displaying aggressive behavior, or just giving off a bad vibe. Whatever the cause, it’s important to know how to handle these situations gracefully and professionally, ensuring your well-being without escalating the situation.
When you first meet a client, trust your instincts. If you feel uncomfortable or unsafe for any reason, it's perfectly acceptable to decline the appointment. Here are some strategies you can use to navigate these delicate situations effectively.
Upon meeting a client who is clearly intoxicated, whether from alcohol or drugs, it’s essential to recognize that impaired judgment can lead to unpredictable and potentially dangerous behavior. In such cases, maintaining a calm and composed demeanor is key. Politely explain to the client that you cannot proceed with the appointment due to their current state. You might say something like, "I'm sorry, but I don't feel comfortable continuing our appointment when you're not feeling well. Let's reschedule for another time when you're at your best." This approach places the emphasis on their well-being, making it clear that their state is the reason for the postponement, not a personal judgment.
Hygiene issues can also be a significant deterrent. If a client arrives unkempt or with poor personal hygiene, it’s reasonable to address this before proceeding. You can gently suggest that they freshen up before continuing. Offer them access to a shower and provide necessary toiletries. You might say, "I want us both to enjoy our time together, and I think it would be best if you took a quick shower to freshen up. There are clean towels and toiletries in the bathroom for you." If the client refuses or if their hygiene is beyond what a quick shower can remedy, you can then explain that personal cleanliness is essential for your services and that you won’t be able to continue under the circumstances.
Aggressive behavior is a major red flag that cannot be ignored. If a client is acting aggressively, either verbally or physically, it’s important to de-escalate the situation as calmly and safely as possible. Use a firm but polite tone to assert your boundaries. You could say, "I’m not comfortable with this behavior. If it continues, I will have to end our appointment." If the aggression persists, it’s best to remove yourself from the situation immediately. Excuse yourself from the room, and if necessary, contact security or a trusted person to assist you.
Sometimes, it’s just a gut feeling that something isn’t right with a client. Trusting your intuition is crucial in these scenarios. You don’t need a concrete reason to decline a client if you feel uneasy. It’s your right to protect yourself. You can fabricate a plausible excuse to leave the appointment without offending the client. For instance, you could receive a "phone call" from a friend or family member that requires your immediate attention. "I’m so sorry, but I’ve just received an urgent call from my sister. I need to leave right away. Can we reschedule for another time?" This provides a clear reason for your departure without directly confronting the client.
Another strategy is to set up a system with a friend or colleague where you have a prearranged call at the beginning of each appointment. If everything is fine, you can quickly confirm this to your friend. If not, you can use the call as an excuse to leave. "I’m sorry, something has come up, and I need to leave. I will get in touch with you to reschedule."
Above all, ensure that you have a clear exit plan and never feel obliged to stay in a situation where you feel uncomfortable or unsafe. It's always better to prioritize your safety over potentially earning money from a problematic client.
In summary, handling unsuitable clients with grace and professionalism involves trusting your instincts, maintaining your boundaries, and using polite but firm communication to extricate yourself from uncomfortable situations. By preparing in advance and having a few strategies at your disposal, you can navigate these encounters effectively, ensuring your safety and peace of mind while maintaining your professional demeanor.
