There is zero value in knowing the reason. If I were in your shoes, I would take my money and buy what I want somewhere else. The nature of this thread seems to be too focused on attachment and ego.
Successful punting is like sales, to be successful you must be able to handle rejection, and always remember it is all about money.
If this were my experience, I would not try to book this girl again. It leaves a hundred others to play with.
