    Default Letting Clients Know of Retirement

    So, since summer, I have toyed with the idea of hanging up my escorting heels - or at the very least, retiring from the grand majority of my clients. Perhaps, privately letting a few good regulars know that they are still free to contact me even after my ads are down, for the occasional side money. I was thinking, if things go according to plan this month, I will announce my retirement, scheduled for end of February, close to the new year.

    I would like to do so in a way that doesn't instantly bring business to a grinding halt as I transition, and in fact, would prompt many of my years-long clients to see me for one (or more) final hurrah(s). I'm not sure what would be best. I could go with a straight-up, I'm getting out of the game, so I hope to see you before I go. But I also feel like many guys would think "Why would I go see her one final time, knowing it will be the final time?" So I was also thinking something less definitive, along the lines of I'll be taking a break for the foreseeable future while I focus on other things, and don't know when I'll be back, so I hope to see you in the next couple months to tide us both over until then.

    I honestly don't see myself coming back if I retire, but then again, it's always an option and possibility, so who knows? But even if I don't, it could get my clients more interested in seeing me one last time before my "break" so they can tell me to let them know when I am seeing people again. It's less of a hard-line "you know you'll never see me again, so why bother?"

    Ladies who are retired, how did you do it? Ease in or just announce the end in one fell swoop? How did it go either way?

    Men, what would you be more inclined to respond to with a visit? If it makes any difference at all? Have you been/would you be inclined to see your favorite provider for one last hurrah if you knew she was hanging up her heels? Or will I kill any chance of business if people know I'm disappearing anyway, so I should just wait to drop the ax when I'm ready to be done that very day? I would really like to ease into it, and perhaps drum up business before the cut during a couple months of the year that are otherwise usually dreadfully slow for me by creating a sense of urgency.
    Don't try to win over the haters. You are not the Jerk Whisperer.

    Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.

    You asked for blue opinions, so ....

    I'd let people know you are retiring for a longer period of time. Some people may want to see you but are busy, etc. It also may cause people who have been lurking to come out of the woodwork. Speaking for myself and others, you do miss people you've known, so perhaps allow the best of them to see you until they leave of their own accord or you tire of them.

    I'm not questioning your money management skills, almost everyone underestimates what they'll need. Hell I did that this week.

    Yes, I would see a retiring escort one last time if I was told she was retiring.

    That said, if I were you, I think at the very least you could do is tell your loyal regulars of your impending retirement because it's just a polite way to end a relationship with people who were loyal to you, and so they don't worry about you (yes some of us do care).


    Personaly, I have been loyal to a specific escort over a year seeing her weekly only for her to disappear abruptly and it's just a bad feeling. You worry if they are ok, or did she get arrested, or if she died. One escort in my area who did disappear found out months later she did die from an overdose.
