Summer: this four sometimes expects the other person to be responsible for doing all the romantic things and initiating a great deal of all the fun and excitement. Cecil: Let me ask you something, did this guy AGREE to be responsible to all these HEAVY requirements? If so, when? Are you sure he read the contract clearly? How much an hour are you paying him to entertain you, anyway? If he's not doing a good enough job entertaining you, can't you just talk to his agent and find a male escort replacement? Summer: I contribute to it, but I don't take responsibility for it enough myself. Cecil: If you don't take responsibility for it, than you have lost all power and RIGHTS to 'acquire' it. If you still get 'it' without the liability, then it was a gift. Check for strings attached. Summer: Why must I wait for him to do it? Cecil: Like I said, if you don't want to 'wait' for him to 'do' it, then get your agent to find you a replacement, after all, you're paying for his TIME in this business. And if you don't like how he's 'performing' on YOUR tiem that he OWES you, because you paid at least $100.00/hr for his male escort service, then REPLACE HIM or get your money back! Summer: I can set the romantic mood and do the things I imagine and Cecil: Sure you can, but check your market first. What exactly do your prospective buyers want? What if they want something you don't want, or can't offer? Summer: fantasize someone else will do for me! Cecil: Sure they'll assume the job, but do you have enough money to pay their fee in advance? What about tips? If you're competing with a big tipper, you may lose them to your competition. Then you'll be left with no 'romantic supplier'. Summer: I don't know if this is a four thing or a female thing Cecil: Both. Summer:- but I am trying to remember the onus is not always to be on him. Cecil: It all depends on the market demand. Who needs what and how bad do they need it and who can supply it the best? Summer: I can take the initiative and create the mood too! Cecil: If you sell a service, expect rejection to be part of the game plan. Summer: I am sure other fours spend a lot of time daydreaming about how romantic and wonderful the right person is going to be Cecil: Definitely, but reality can be just as romantic as fantasy, too, you know. Summer: and what what they are going to do for us. Cecil: Wait a second, what WHO is going to do what for WHO? Better get that in writing first. Summer: But we can doing much as well. Cecil: Now you're on the right track. Cecil
