And with this thread. You are the favorites if you spend a lot of money and are polite. Looking like Brad Pitt does not hurt either.
I think Lily put it best, if she asks you to stay longer with NO CHARGE, you are a favorite. If it still costs you money to stay longer or if they want to be paid to have a drink or dinner with you, you are not a favorite.
When I first started the hobby I used to book 2 - 3 hr sessions ( used to take SP's to the little Italian place in the strip mall west of Chablis on Sherbrook and spend 1 hr for quick drink appetiser ) and 80% of the time I would get their private number on first meeting, now with 1 hr and sometime 1/2 hr with no lounge time I get no numbers. Money talks in this business. The ladies are doing their job in making you feel special and some do a very good job.
