I'm making my own decision. Period. I'm giving this whole thing a lot of thought and weighing all of my options. Between staying with my grandma, and now having other family in town I really haven't had a lot of time to do any research, but I did find both the federal and municipal laws regarding it, and it is a lot more legit than I thought, but there is still a lot of grey areas. I need to read over them again and gain a full understanding. I also found free legal council for one of the neighbouring cities so there's gotta be something like that in my bustling metropolis of mine.
Andrew also did some of his own research. We have had further conversations since. He texted me to let me know my agency has a bad rep. I told him to go on, and he said that we're not industry standard, we don't do GFE, too expensive and so on. Some of what he said is true, some isn't and some I cant speak to. I phoned him, enough of this texting. It was a weird conversation. Very stalled. I asked him what his source was and he said web sites. "what websites?" "Well, I'm not telling." I respect that he wants to keep his cards close to his chest. If I know everything he does, he might become redundant. However I can do my own research, and I've found a lot of different sites, but so far none that review actual agencies; they just review the girls.
He also said that we/I charge too much. For basic service, for GFE and for anything kinky or out of the norm. But you know what? It's not too much if people pay it. Do you want to be Starbucks or do you want to be Tim Hortons. Both make a shit tonn of money with very different business models.
The fact that he is being manipulative and giving me the hard sell is not lost on me. Bottom line is I want to be safe and I want to do it legally and right now it kind of seems that they are mutually exclusive. ~ironic~ I'm not going to let him pressure me into any thing and I'm not going to let him rush me. And also keep in mind that this isn't the scary controlling pimp situation you hear about or see in the movies. HE is going to be working for ME. I control the cash flow. I pay him. Not the other way around. There will be no drugs. He does not do them and neither do I.
There's no time laps in writing, but I've been sitting here for a bit thinking how over my head I could get. I know that it is with in the realm of possibilities. I don't like to think about it but I know its real. The thing is, this is not a secret life I live. ALL of my friends know what I do. If I am in trouble I can reach out. And I have friends who will not allow me to be isolated. And they are all normal people. Ha ha. They are stable and are people I could go to if I needed help. Actually, come to think of it, I knew way more drug dealers and sketchy people when I was living the straight life than I do now. Back in the day, my theory is if something happened to me, I would tell a few choice friends and let them handle it, rather than going to the police. I don't know those people any more ~sad face~

The hair on the back of my neck is standing up. Everything you write about what he is saying to you makes him sound like a controlling freak who will say anything to get what he wants. He's already trying to undermine your confidence, to put doubts in your mind about the agency you are with.
ReplyDeleteI loved your comments about the Starbucks versus Horton's business Model. Even if you do go the private route, I would advise you NOT to do it with him. There are high priced call girls in the city who work independently and you need to find one of them and get advice.
I feel like a mother hen here but honestly, this guy sounds like every slick creep I've ever met.
I won't post my name but you know who I am.. lol
