Ten Minutes In..........
ShareTen Minutes In....
The newest name on this site has no reviews, no track record, and no intention of apologising for it...
...I went live ten minutes ago.
No reviews. No completed bookings. No one to vouch for me but me. If that makes you nervous, good, that's because it should. You've earned the right to be sceptical, and I'd rather you arrive suspicious than arrive sold.
So let me give you something better than gold.
First, the thing you're looking for
You've already scrolled past the photos. You've already checked whether the face is real, whether the age is honest, whether the whole thing smells like a stock image and a copy-pasted bio.
You won't find my face here.
That's deliberate. Not coyness, a courtesy. If you're married, or if your name carries weight in a boardroom, the last thing you need is a stranger's face sitting in your browser history next to your own. So I keep mine off the internet. You see it when we meet, or when we're far enough along that it matters. Until then, you're deciding on the things that actually predict whether this works: how I write, how fast I answer, how I handle you.
Those, you can judge right now.
If you run things all day
You don't need another thing to manage. You need something that doesn't create admin.
So: I answer messages myself, usually within the hour, and always the same day. No booking forms. No deposit links and confirmation emails and a follow-up survey. You tell me a window, I tell you yes or no, and if it's yes it's handled.
I dress for the room. If you're taking me somewhere with a dress code, tell me the dress code and I'll meet it. If you want to be collected, I'll collect you. If you want to arrive separately and leave separately, that's not an inconvenience, it's a preference, and I'll work to it.
And I don't talk. Not to anyone, not about anyone. There's no agency behind me with a shared database and a receptionist who knows the client list. It's me. If your name leaves my mouth, it's because you put it there.
If it's been a while since someone looked at you properly
Different problem. Different answer.
You're not short of a companion, you're short of being wanted. There's a difference, and it's the difference between a man who turns up and a man who notices. The dress you almost didn't wear. The fact you did your hair. That you were nervous, and that the nerves are the point.
Here's what I promise, and it's a short list: I'll be early. I'll be pleased to see you. I'll ask you something that isn't about your husband or your kids, and I'll listen to the answer. And when it's over, you'll go home to the same life. But.... you'll go home having been looked at properly by someone who had no reason to be kind but genuinely was and you know this through the authenticity of attention and care placed on all the little things that go unnoticed in your usual day to day....... and guess what?
Nobody has to know. That's the whole architecture of it. One afternoon, one evening, and then the school run on Monday like nothing happened.
What I won't do
Because this is where the reviews would normally help, and I don't have any yet.
I won't double-book you. I won't rush you out the door because someone else is waiting. I won't turn up late and blame traffic. I won't spend the evening on my phone. And I won't pretend the arrangement is something it isn't to make you feel better about it, you're a grown woman, you can hold the truth.
The honest part
Ten minutes in, nobody has set my terms but me. That won't last. The first handful of women through this door are the ones who shape how it runs, what the rhythm is, what the boundaries are, what I get right and what I fix. Later, there'll be a queue and a wait and a version of me that's been sanded down by other people's preferences.
Right now, there's me, a calendar with nothing in it, and a very good reason to make your first time the one you compare the rest to.
Start here
Don't overthink the first message. Copy this if it helps:
"Hi Cassian — saw the blog. Free Thursday evening, city. What do you need from me?"
That's it. I'll take it from there. No obligation, no pressure, and if the answer's no, no hard feelings.
The door's open and its only be open about ten minutes. All you have to do do is have the curiosity for something new and walk on through.
Cassian xx
