Escorts for the Holidays

[Electra 225]

It may be a bit early, but I was wondering: Do escorts typically accept appointments during the holidays? Specifically, I have been invited to a very nice mixed (but mostly) gay New Year's Eve Party and don't want to go to the event "stag". In general, would an escort be interested in an over-night (12 hours or so) that included dinner, the party, and after-party fun at my place? Would the rate, typically, be the same as the "regular" posted rate for an over-night appointment or would the rate increase due to it being a holiday? I would not want to take an escort away from "personal time" with family and friends, so how far in advance of the "event" should I contact an escort and what is the best way to ensure that the appointment happens? Obviously, the escort would have to be able to dress appropriately (upscale business casual with a bit of holiday flair) and be able to interact with the other guests at the party--all of whom are college educated and professional (but not "uptight"). Your thoughts??

I would never attempt such an arrangement with an escort I didn't know . He would have to be a guy I trusted to keep his word if he said yes. If I knew such a person I would simply ASK HIM. You lose absolutely nothing by asking and listening carefully to his response.

I wouldn't hesitate to try to schedule an escort I have experience with for New Year's Eve, but I would try to get it done in the next week or so. Holiday plans are often made early, so book the escort before he has plans. Also, if you are planning to go out for dinner you may need to make reservations early enough to make them; my favorite spot for New Year's is usually booked by November 1.

I made plans for an overnight with an escort for Christmas Eve and he called out sick for that. I suggested that we change it to New Year's Eve and I never heard back. I had done several overnights with this particular escort but these were the last encounters i have had with him. The rate was going to be the standard rate. My suspicion was that a better offer appeared but it certainly could have been illness. But you sound as though you have a nice evening planned and would hope an escort would not leave you hung out to dry on such an occasion. OF course you might improve your odds of success by hiring 2 escorts for a three way and at least if one doesnt show, you still have a companion. It is New Year's Eve after all.

I suspect this scenario needs careful selection. My guess is that guys who are full-time escorts do seek out holidays, but also may be flush enough to have their own plans. For a normal long appointment, I'd say look for someone well reviewed for long appointments,, but this is a case where you'd want to have a somewhat social appointment to see how the guy interacts in the world. There are guys who are pleasant company 1:1 but get quiet in a crowded or busy place. It's not clear where you live---someone local may not want to be so public about their status as a companion for hire. I think it would be easier if you turned this into a 24 hour appointment (a 12 hour rate is likely to be similar) and make it seem less like 12 hours of being "on". What your asking them to do isn't exactly like hiring a caterer to serve and be in the background.

Bite ME Glutes, you are back on my Shit List..... You absolutely enjoy being a SCHMUCK !

Holidays cost us working boys money and personally I work every day except Christmas day and a 2 week trip I make to see a close friend in Turkey every year. I only take Christmas day off because I spend the day/night with family who live 50 miles away.

 

If I plan a weekend away to Edinburgh or London I always advertise myself there as available and work wherever I can. My close friends all know I do this work and they're quite happy to see me disappear for a couple of hours if the cocktails are on me when I return

 

IMHO very few genuine escorts would turn down a guaranteed overnight at any time of the year, especially one booked 2 months in advance.

 

Last year I worked Christmas Eve until 6pm, New Years Eve and I had a surprising 3 x 1 hour incall appointments in on New Years Day. I plan to work over Christmas/New Year this year too.

"Kyle Gibson". As by prior advisement, he is presents very nicely in public, and, thereby, he would be "suitable" to the occasion. I encountered him, on several social occasions, in the company of a member of a Near Eastern "imperial" family, a man known to be discriminating in his choice of "rentboys".

[Electra 225]

Thanks for all the input. Much appreciated. My main go-to guy for all things is going to be out of town for the holidays (working and playing), so I am making a list and checking it twice for suitable escorts I've seen over the past year to see who would fit and who would be interested. I think that for the both of us, 12 hours is about right. It is too expensive to bring in someone from out of town, so I'm looking strictly at the hometown guys. Also, with a hometown guy, if things go well, there is always the possibility of extending the appointment if everyone's schedule permits.

Kyle Gibson in LA has used the same pictures and age for years though.

The published photographs are not of "Kyle Gibson", rather photographs of men comparable in physical appearance to "Kyle Gibson". Having retained the man through many changes in his "stage name" over the years, I can attest to his being a very handsome man with an accomodating and pleasant personal manner, and, I would rate his sexual performance as "superior". That his "true identity", if you will, has never been "published" makes him a perfect candidate for the advertised "position": no one in the room can point to him and state, with impunity, "that man is a prostitute; poor old John. . ."

His ad says he's 24. How accurate is that?

[Scorpio]

Well since he's been that age for a good 6 or 7 years, I'd say it's even more inaccurate than it was 6 or 7 years ago.

[Steven_Draker]

I'd say closer to 35, but then again some look even sexier at that age, and I don't believe that age is a factor for the OP.

[robberbaron4u]

In my opinion, Mr. Draker, in stating the age of "Kyle Gibson" as 35, more often than not, is the "kiss of death" for an "rentboy's" career, and, being that he is the "competition", should disclose that Father Time has pushed his baby buggy down the road of life 'neck and neck" with Kyle. Although I have not sampled the "Great Adventure" that is Steven Draker, by his reputation, and, by my own experience with "Kyle", I concur with him that age, although a matter of preference, should not be measure of the quality of the thing; I, myself, prefer a certain maturation of character in my "hires", and, I have waited out at least one "hire", who I deemed to be desirable, to attain some "age" before retaining him in his professional capacity. Before Mr. Draker levels the "boom" on me, laying me lower than a toad in the road with a tire track down its back, I have had the pleasure of observing him, at a distance, in person, and, in my opinion, a statue, memorializing his physical beauty, should be raised of him in the town square that the public might marvel at the perfection of his form.

someone please take away this guy's quotation mark ability from his keyboard

[robberbaron4u]

Hitting the caps key and those little " marks serves to preserve the nimbleness of my fingers, a concern at my age. However, I am pleased to defer to your request. . .

[Steven_Draker]

Robberbaron4u,

Let me clarify that my statement shouldn't be taken as a negative remark. I've met Kyle Gibson and consider him more of a 'friend' than 'competition'. You may want to check the archives.

 

As for maturity, I firmly believe that some things like good wine and Kyle bonify with age.

 

Cheers, Steven ~

I must say I enjoy robberbaron4u's writings. Bet all of his friends ask him to do their eulogies. They would be a hoot and certainly liven up a funeral.

Electra, I want to say "Morning Becomes . . ." but that will date me. Anyway, in my many meetings with gentlemen I have asked about their plans for the holidays, most would relish the work. I surprisingly hear a lot of stories as Steve said guys do want that quick appt on Christmas Day or even that overnight that evening.

Making your appointment this early should give some good choices. The only thing I have heard is that since a lot of guys are not busy the week between the holidays, a lot have their vacations planned so they can get those nice tan lines many of us like.

 

If you are planning an overnight and maybe more, the risk of cancelling is minimized. The careful part for me is I would want to make sure the gentlemen knows how to drink responsibly on a holiday like New Year's Eve. I would actually think a gentlemen in the 30's would be an excellent option for this type of an event. He would probably have appropriate choices in his wardrobe, be able to pull off distinguish without being campy. There are times when be around the block a couple of times works to your benefit and this is one of them.

 

Have fun and go into this with a positive attitude friend.

That his "true identity", if you will, has never been "published" makes him a perfect candidate for the advertised "position": no one in the room can point to him and state, with impunity, "that man is a prostitute; poor old John. . ."

 

This was one of the things I thought of when I read through the OP and responses. How do you introduce your escort companion to the other guests? Do you have a cover story?

 

At parties people like to ask (1) where you're from, (2) what you do for a living, and (3) how you know each other? Given that this is a crowd that is college educated and professional, they may also ask about educational background in some kind of roundabout way. Sometimes it's being nosy, but often it's just trying to get a conversation started.

 

Also, Electra where are you located? That might help people make suggestions if you're wanting to keep to the local area.

Quotation marks
