I really didn't want to write this, but I've tried everything I can, over several months, to resolve the issue and haven't been successful so I guess it's time to accept that it just is what it is.

I am also posting this on her profile.

I didn't want to write it, because the guilty party is one of my all-time favourites and I have really enjoyed getting to know her and spending time with her, and I have been seeing her for several years now. (Active ad: www.esa.co.za/escorts/viewEscort.php )

But the truth of the matter is that she has now robbed me.
So a while ago I was visiting this lady fairly frequently -- probably 4 or 5 times over two or three weeks (including a few times where I drove from Joburg through to PTA only to be stood up, which is not entirely unusual for her). At the time I was dealing with some issues (both health and other) and a lot of the bookings were just going for a drink or having a chat (i.e. nothing physical). For these bookings Kate frequently gave a discount in terms of which I just had to cover the cost of the room. I protested this (because if she wasn't seeing me she would be able to see another client and I didn't want her losing out on my account) but she insisted.

So anyway, as with many I found that an hour with her was just not enough, so arranged for an all-nighter. She quoted me a price and requested a R3000 upfront payment and she would book a guest house. I sent the R3000 by e-wallet.

I know what you are all going to say about upfront payments but I had no second thoughts about doing so -- I have known her for years and have even lent her money in the past when her wallet/cards where stolen and she needed cash and she paid me back literally within days. I really did trust her.

On the day that the all-nighter was supposed to take place she sent me a message/ voice note saying that she had just got out of a booking and would be looking for a guest house now and would send me the details. That was the last I heard from her. I happily headed through to Pretoria and went to a coffee shop to wait for the details. And boy did I wait. And wait. And wait. No response to messages. No answer to calls etc. Eventually I accepted what had just happened and headed home.

I have tried to get hold of her frequently since then, mostly unsuccessfully. On one occasion she answered, and we had a bit of a tense chat. I asked her what happened. Her first response was "I don't know" which is not ideal. Then she said that the R3000 wasn't for the all nighter but was because of the discounts she had given me. Which would be odd because that's not AT ALL what she said when she asked for the R3000 -- it was definitely an "upfront payment" (her words) for the overnighter, ( I still have the messages if people want to see the receipts) so if she was recouping the discounts it was done under false pretenses and besides how do you give a discount and then unilaterally revoke it?

Incidentally if she had messaged me and said "I actually can't afford to give you those discounts", I would have paid in the difference -- like I said I didn't actually want them in the first place. And actually I've told her that I'd be happy to let her keep it if she'll see me again.
But here we are -- She is still not responding to messages or answering any further calls and I'm out R3000.

Now Kate here's your opportunity to give your side of the story bearing in mind that the OP has the WhatsApp trail

Sorry mate. This sucks. Have heard the same from others.

@JP82...we know you as being somewhat of a vet on Esa and a genuine punter hereon. IMHO, a lot has changed in this industry and its become dangerous to a large extent. As punters we do trust more with the head below most times, trying hard (pun intented) to be a nice guy...and get the shitty end of the stick. Man, i have seen this game changed beeg time. In saying that, there are some genuine and great SPs around, but becoming a scarcity recently. Strongs JP. My 2c. Yolo

Sounds more like the whinings of a rejected man.

Thanks for the response everyone.

@verylasttime - I'm not going to lie, being taken for a poes by someone you trust stings, but if you are suggesting that I'm not being entirely honest I've still got the messages...

JP82... sucks to read this. Especially from someone that is defending every WG on this forum. Perhaps it is a lesson you needed to learn.... a 3k one.

I have been seeing Kate for a while in the last 3 to 4 years and noticed somewhat erratic behaviour in the last few months. I have my suspicions and have decided to keep away.

Sorry about your predicament. But heck she looks fine !

Don't judge verylasttime, your very first time may be around the corner. We are all human and over time, connections develop and trust forms. I too got caught up with the same SP and took a big loss and lesson from it.

There's always more than one side to a story I will give the lady benefit of doubt.

Perhaps she will share her side to the story.

Karma is a bitch though ;)
