I'll confirm that my experience has been the same. For people who only buy content, they don't realize the effort it takes to get models.
Advertise, reply back and forth 3-4 times, of all inquiries, maybe 25% agree to meet, then 50% of those actually show up. Then 50% of those are actually worth photographing. Then you setup (assuming first one was just a test shoot you can't sell) another appointment, photograph for a few hours, sign all legal stuff and IDs, and edit photos.
Then during middle of the shoot, it starts getting old...jeez, how many times do I have to see this model naked?....then it becomes a job.
Learned some very interesting stuff about people and such though.
