I’m meeting a provider for the first time in a few weeks. We already are scheduled for a longer (6hr) date but it’s a broadway show and dinner. I always tend to like longer dates to build connection and I give a lot of thought before booking anyone. So it’s always been good.

The date doesn’t start till 7pm so 6hr gets us to 1am. I’m a night owl and the provider said she is as well and is fine with a late ending.

However, the provider notes on her site that she loves overnights. And in a practical sense 1am is late and the overnight is only slightly more than the 6hr.

My concerns are that I’ve never done an overnight. So I don’t know what it would be like. I’ve never met this provider before but she’s friends with a provider I’ve seen several times who I get along great with and have enjoyed several 6 hour dates. But again it’s always a risk.

Should I float it out to her and see what she thinks? And let her say yes or no?

I’m seeing a GFE provider I’ve not met before for an extended date in a few weeks. We are going to a show and then dinner and then the rest.

May seem like a silly question but what are thoughts on holding hands, being cozy with each other in the theater? I’m not talking about making out or anything. Just like sitting close, holding hands, hands on a knee (not like sliding up a thigh). That type thing.

EDIT

Thoughts on asking her in advance via email? I always have concerns that asking this in earshot of others in public could make her feel uncomfortable since it may indicate the nature of our time together to others. Especially in a theater setting where we might be sitting near those same eavesdroppers for 2 hours.

I’m meeting a new provider for the first time in a few weeks. We are starting our date in public so my plan was to provide the donation in a gift bag which is pretty standard. But when I do this I always like to find a small gift.

I generally try to check their wishlist and glean from their ads things they are interested in and try to find a book or a small token object related to those things. In this case the provider doesn’t list anything on her site that gives me ideas. Her wishlist is limited. The only small item on it is earrings however they are $600 which is more than I’d typically spend on a small gift.

I’d welcome input from clients or providers on ideas on how to approach this. Do I maybe try to find similar earrings to the ones on her wish list? Maybe just some uber or Lyft gift cards?

I realize this is probably a silly thing to some. But I like giving gifts as a way to thank providers for the time and effort.

I reached out to a provider via their booking form on Monday afternoon. Wednesday morning she emailed saying that yes she’d be happy to meet.

I’d proposed a few possible dates in her form and she told me which work for her and said once I confirmed back she’d send deposit instructions.

I replied Wednesday mid day and have not heard back.

She mentioned in her email having a regular 9-5 job so I would imagine she’s busy. And our tentative plans aren’t for several weeks so it’s not urgent.

But what’s a reasonable amount of time to wait before I follow up politely?
