what do you consider "a regular"?

[voxel]

Been lurking around a while here, figured I'd post a Q.

I'm just curious about what criteria ppl here would use to
qualify someone as a "regular" customer ( for SC, SP or MP) ?
- More than X visits? 3? 5?
- Frequency of visits?
- Total number of sessions?
- Length of time you've known her as a customer?
- How much (money) you've spent?
- If she gave you a phone# to call her (and it was real?
- If she contacts you when she's working?

What do the ladies think, about this as well?
Sounds like a poll, but I don't know how to do those.

I believe we had a thread discussing this a while back. I wonder if MLC can find it.

The minimum for me is 3x seen with the intention to see again in the near future.

A little off topic but I always used to find it funny when a SP would get upset because her regular saw someone else.

Hellooo???
A big part of why alot of men hobby is variety........If they wanted to be stuck with the same woman,they'd stay home.

Miranda, the situation with SP's and dancers getting jealous seems to pop up for me quite a bit! Like you said, it is kinda funny (until they seem to really give you crap about it)

Not as bad as the scene some Dancers put on when one of their "regulars" gets dances from another dancer. Some can put on quite a show. Its a great way to lose a customer, too!

Great post Miranda. I had a regular in Windsor that got pissy at me for posting a review of another lady, and I was taken aback. Talk about a GFE!!!! LOL> I even had an MPA in London that I would see when I was in town, and then when I went in, she was there but a new girl was there that I wanted to see, went for her and she got really pissy and said some things about me seeing the other girl and said not to bother seeing her again. Very bizarre. Expecially for an MP.

As for me, a regular would mean "almost exclusively" seeing a particular lady over a long enough time period. Such as seeing someone 6 or more times over a year with the intention of continuing to see that lady. It would be interesting to hear more points of view from the ladies on this.

With jealousy happening, maybe boths ways,
obviously it could be a matter of some other feelings
getting in the way, that it's more than just customer/provider.
Or most likely it's just good business, no?
I'm not passing judgment, maybe the ladies just
get used to and appreciate a regular and don't wan't to lose them.

Ladies do you give out cell numbers to your regulars?
Have you every gone out for drinks/dinner to appease a regular?

SC Regular

In SCs, I suspect a "regular" is when both the dancer and the customer know before asking that they are going to do business. (baring lack of funds of course)

Regarding SPs, Dancers, etc. getting jealous, consider the "business" aspect of it. When a "regular" does business with someone else, they are taking potential income away from the provider that considers them a "regular".

A couple of years ago, I went "exclusive" for nearly a year with one dancer at a SC. While some of the dancers I had previously bought dances from were cool with it, others were quite pissed, both with me and the dancer I was then exlusive with. I'm too much of a realist to think it was personal, so I assume that it was over the perception of lost income.

Lost income and a little bit of a hit on their ego...

Think about it...when you are in this line of business, you have to have a bit of an ego and feel very confident about your looks and personality to "hook" regulars. It is a conscious effort by the SP, MPA, or Dancer to "impress" guys that they like and want them to become regulars because they don't mind spending time with them at all (even being attracted to them). Once the regular strays a little, it hurts their ego as well as their pocketbook (unless she is booked all the time anyways). Even then, it hurts their ego, thinking that the regular has lost interest in her to some or a large degree.

The follow-up to this question...

How many SP's, etc. want regulars or encourage them to come back? While some of the answers are obvious, there have to be some drawbacks/problems with regulars...

Let me know, maybe being a regular somewhere would be a nice change...

 

[The Baroness]

I personally find it ridiculous

Well said Miranda - but remember it works both ways, the ladies in this business enjoy variety as much as the men, otherwise they'd be classed as "mistresses" who only see their "regs".

what??? my regular sp sees other men?!?

reality...shattered....

must....go...on...

As has been previously mentioned, I think it's the intention of repeating that makes someone a regular. Obviously, that means there is a connection that makes one want to repeat. For me, that's an important aspect of any session.

The downside to having a regular SP is being taken for granted. I've experienced that with the not-so-reputable agencies who solely care about making money. They will squeeze in another appointment before you and make you wait because they know you will. Or they will blow you off completely when someone other client calls up and makes a multi-hour booking, knowing you'll just re-book again another day. The first time I went through this I decided not only to stop seeing that particular SP but to not use that agency ever again; it was being repeatedly lied to that really pissed me off. It was extremely tough to cut myself off from that SP but I feel better about it now and try not to become so attached to my regulars. I say regular's' as I hate being disappointed in finding out someone is not available when I want.

...but as a society, we have always had it inbred that sex & emotions (usually love) go hand-in-hand...even the so-called "pros" in the business can't always turn this off.

Then again, perhaps some get upset as they watch their assumed profits go elsewhere. I work in lumber and I get annoyed when I lose sales to competitors...not jealous, mind you.

lol what gets me is the guys that think i would get jealous...i agree...if men wanted one woman...they'd be at home....

no one man can seriously think i see no-one but him, who am I to expect them not to see other women???

JMHO

[thecoolguyms72]

True enough Corena, but we as customers aren't in business to see many others. And it frankly happens........more so at MP's and SC's as it is more visible, as in the "regular" can be seen going to a different girl. But on these boards, if the "regular" posts a review of another girl, it's been known to happen that the regular girl would PM a nasty or questioning message. I personally agree with Miranda and you, but that's not always reality with some women, and men for that matter. I've heard of men who get jealous when they hear of reviews of "their girl" too.

I'll own up to that one.

I do realize though, that I have no right to make that an issue with her, as it is just something I have to deal with myself. I've made her aware of how I feel, just so she knows, but I don't think it would be fair of me to make any demands as I know this is her work and this is how I met her.

 

[The Baroness]

I dont think they mean when you are in a relationship with the girl Shack.Thats different.
