1. I should trip him and rush past. It's possible my girl double booked and if so, I wanted dibs.

2. I could go all Man of the World and just ask him if he's heading where I am. We could then arm wrestle, flip a coin, politely negotiate who should arrive first.

3. I could just watch and see how it all plays out. If he's hip too, then we're basically playing chicken to see who blinks first. If not, I can enjoy watching to see how long it takes to dawn on him.

4. I could exercise discretion, make a wrong turn, dawdle for a minute, then double back. This allows everyone to maintain face and avoid awkwardness.

I went for option 4, mainly because I figure that's what both my RB brothers, and the girls of the house would want me to do. But I'm kind of disappointed as options 1, 2, and 3 sure seem a lot more fun. Would anyone else have done it differently? I'm just curious. BTW I asked when I got there and a different girl did indeed receive a guy just before me.

If worse case scenario, the provider did double-book, a call to confirm and reschedule is a mild inconvenience compared to causing a scene, alerting others and/or potentially forcing the provider(s) to relocate. Sure option 2 does sound like the makings of an awesome story, but who's to say it'd actually turn out that way?

One time I was in the elevator with other people, including what appeared to be a pimp and another provider. When we got to my floor no one moved, so I figured they all were going up. I got out and proceeded towards the room. I was surprised to hear the girl and guy talking behind me, so I just continued past the room and went around the corner. After a minute I looked back and they were gone. I went back to my provider's room. The door was now ajar, with the dead bolt opened to keep the door open. As I peeked in, the woman who was in the elevator saw me, opened the door and said "I thought you were coming here - I was surprised when you kept going. Don't worry, I just needed to pick up something. I'm leaving." She left, the pimp was not there and the session went off fine.

My philosophy is to be as inconspicuous and forgettable as possible. I've had a lifetime of experience being unnoticed and forgotten, especially by women, so it's been fairly easy for me to be an invisible hobbiest.

But you know, I've told of this one story once that happened to me about 3 yrs ago, where I think (I think) I got double-booked. Except that I waited in the parking lot like a good boy for her to answer, wonderful, right? So I assume another guy took my place in the double booking. I was so pissed, to say the least. What a bitch, huh?! She did call back 3 hrs later and I still agreed to meet and I had one super fantastic session. Since then, she's become a topmost ATF for me, go figure. Just thought I'd throw that in here. Around here, I'm no longer surprised at some of the most strangest outcomes I've run into even when there's a conundrum involved.

There are pluses and minuses to the Nevada system, but one big plus is the casual atmosphere in the parlors. (I'm talking about northern Nevada. Southern's much different).
