i like to leave the gift after the appointment as i think its more intimate, i hate going to see an escort and as soon as you walk in the door, the hand is out for the money before you even say hello. i think paying before it makes it more business like if you understand what i mean. like if you go to a shop to buy a jumper or jeans, you always try them on 1st before you hand over the money, but from the escorts point ov view then they dont want to be ripped off, so i suppose they want there money 1st!!!!!!!
