Apologies in advance for the rant, but I hate wasting an afternoon, and that's just what I've done today.
My beef? If your first language is not English, and you're not proficient enough to describe a beautiful sunset passionately in said English, then please send a text message with your address after we make an appointment instead of carrying on with this weird Irish Escort custom of getting us to call you twice as we get closer and closer to your place of work, and then talking us through reaching your door and ringing your bell.
I've just given up on one such attempted encounter yet again, after spending 20 minutes walking in circles around Grand Canal Square, standing like an eejit outside a coffee shop on a corner only to be given such stellar directions as "turn left" (on a corner, where depending on which side of said corner I'm standing and facing, left is any one of north, south, east and west).
Seriously, in the end I had no choice but to hang up the phone and walk away, after making an idiot of myself for 20 minutes, €200 the better for it, but then that's not he point. A wasted afternoon, all because the woman in question wanted to practice her English by trying to give directions to a flat she is clearly unable to give directions to.
So please, if you don't have really good English -- and even if you do -- can you for the love of God send a text message with your actual address and let us find the place ourselves without your help. We're not mentally challenged - we found you online, we can use Google maps to find your address. This is not the first time this has happened to me -- I'd guess that a third of my Dublin appointments end in me not showing up due to being unable to find the address given, and having no confidence that the girl's English is up to the task of getting me there.
This doesn't happen in London, where half my 'business' takes place. Seems that over there the girls take the opposite approach to their Dublin counterparts -- preferring to text us the address and leave the difficult task of locating said address to the client.
I can't think of a single reason why Irish escorts do it this way. If you want to 'conceal' your address, you're sort of failing because you end up giving it to us in the end anyway. So please, for the love of God, just text the bleeding address will you, so we can have at least a little confidence of finding the place.
