Ahh, I get hammered by the "one drink for me" line constantly. I always tell them, if I bought every one of the 30 girls who asked me for a drink, I'd be broke. The response, every single time has been "but I'm not every other girl". Then I tell them ok, you buy me a tequila first, then I'll buy you a drink. Silence.
I had another good one tonight. It was a chica who was trying to get me to take her by making me feel that I couldnt afford her. Our convo went like -
So, lets say me and you spend an hour together, what do you say?
"Sure baby, my price is $130"
Oh, well guess we wont be hanging out after all.
"Its ok, I didnt think you could afford it anyways, it looks like a lot of money to you".
So while I chuckled, I politely told her that I dont pay Mercedes prices for a Hyundai. She got the reference pretty much instantly (she spoke perfect english), and we parted ways soon after.
Are you serious ... $130 ? SMH LOL!!!! How can you not laugh.
You know...part of me is curious to know what an $130 session is like in a place where the average going rate (depending on the time of day/evening/night) can be as low as $40. Because I personally will never know and I have had some excellent sessions for well under the $130 price tag.
But then again, who am I ... I wouldn't be able to differentiate the taste of a $114,000 bottle of Chateau Mouton-Rothschild wine and a $4 bottle of Boones Farm except that after the headache is over I will know I paid wayyyyyyyyy too much for one. LOL!!!!
Not that we travel that distance just to strictly shop from the discount rack, but the pricing is part of the allure of the sport for a lot of people. And I know some will say ... you get what you pay for ... and I will say ... not always... at both ends of the pricing scale. However, at the end of the day ... it is to each their own.
Do a guy a favor...
If you get a chance ... seek her out later ... and she will be around later at that rate. Turn the tables on her as you have with the "Lounge Lizards" and there " One drink for me"
Tell her that since her night isn't going to well...that you think you can afford her now ...
Tell her you will give her $20, but she will have to pay for the taxi back to your place.
If (When) she declines ... question her ability to be worth $20
See how insulted and pissed off she gets.
We don't set out in the evening planning to be annoyed or insulted, and everyone is aware that they are trying to provide a service for a price (making a living)....I believe in free enterprise, but come on...
You don't have to be an economist to realize that your way out pricing yourself at $130 and that its insulting...especially the part where she thought it was endearing to question the size of your wallet.
For her, at the end of the night she will make the choice of sticking to her own price structure and she will either go home with a lot, a lot less or a lot of nothing. It will be her choice.
Was she even good looking?
Good Post
