Lately, I feel like my repeat rate with men has been low.

> I was happy to think that getting extra travel expenses might mean he liked me. Is that not the case? Getting extra travel expenses probably means that, “the moment he met you,” he thought you were a very attractive woman. He may also have given you more because he wanted to continue seeing you. The key point is “the moment he met you.” You’re probably very beautiful. Afterward, though—during the dinner conversation or after going to the hotel—he may have decided that you weren’t quite as impressive as he had expected. I don’t know exactly what put him off, but perhaps he disliked the way you acted after entering the room because it seemed too professional, or maybe your reactions during intimacy seemed exaggerated or fake. I imagine something along those lines may have happened. For example, if a woman says, “I’m okay with going without protection,” that can be a turnoff for some men. Even if she says it thinking it will make him happy, he may worry that she does that with everyone and think, “Is she a professional?” You should always say at the beginning, “Please use protection.” Then, if the man asks to go without it, you can make it seem like you’re making an exception just for him. Even when the answer is the same “yes,” the impression it leaves on a man can be completely different. There are probably many other things like that, so it may be worth thinking through various possibilities.

Legally, you’re not supposed to set the going rate from the outset. That’s why I don’t decide on a universal amount—it’s the legal way to do things. If there’s no second meeting, it probably means the questioner’s value didn’t justify the 8. Keep trying. I don’t think you need to bring a gift. (Honestly, I’d be a little uncomfortable receiving one.) You need to analyze yourself and figure out what you’re lacking. There are plenty of rivals out there. Thinking you should be satisfied can be your downfall. If there’s no next meeting, the papa is definitely not satisfied. He’s investing in the offer fee, after all, so he needs to recoup that on the first meeting. After that, your appeal is what matters.

>It sounds like everyone was satisfied. Apparently, though, you yourself felt more or less the same about all of them, and there wasn’t a man you were especially satisfied with or had high hopes for. So I think they probably didn’t feel anything particularly special either, and simply added a little extra to keep the connection open for later. As long as you both went home with a reasonably good impression of each other, I don’t see a problem… Maybe they could only take away the kind of impression you described… judging by the wording… >So, you have 10 monthly arrangements? Same as me, haha. >Sounds interesting. I really thought we were quite similar. Oh, and the numbers are the same too. Um, I suppose this is a reverse offer from me as well. I’d be happy to accept.

Your question gives off a very professional vibe. That might be the reason.
