Update:
1) He responded on rentmen apologizing. I will give him that.
2) Then offered that his phone wasn't working well in the US.
Okay, I'll partially give him that. Why? There are many alternatives to WhatsApp, etc. One can even get a temporary American line via SIM cards or through Google Voice.
3) He assumed that I wasn't interested because I didn't contact him.
Wait. I'm the client, and I'M supposed to contact HIM to confirm? In my prior successful experiences, escorts always confirmed with clients. Heck, the really good ones checked if you were okay en route. Not the other way around. And he had the entire day, before that evening to do so (or cancel, if he wasn't feeling up to it)
In any event, I called him 5 times in the hours surrounding the appointment. FIVE times. NO option for voice mail. And I left text messages, which WhatsApp registered him seeing only today. So, either he's lying that he didn't get correspondences from me, or his setup is just that poor. Neither which reflects well for him.
Unbelievably bad communicator. All around.
