I disagree with some of the skeptics here.  What if you meet a man outside of the profession, start dating, fall in love, move in together and you then find out that he sees escorts or did see escorts.  How would you feel and what would your reaction be?

I met my very loving, patient, hard working partner via the industry, it took me 7 years and a lot of hard work on his side as I was one of those skeptics.   He is not 100% happy that i am still doing this but understands it is work and does not hold it against me as he knows I will give it up when I am ready and that is when I feel we are financially stable.

I do disagree with women who have partners that live off their earnings without doing a days work acting as their "security" or "fiance".

NC if you feel that there is more in this than just a business relationship then I would say go for it but you will be taking the risk of losing a very good client but then again who knows where this will go, will it lead to a long term relationship you just dont know.  Is he seeing you because he can not have a long term relationship right now due to his own personal circumstances.  Is he the kind of man who can forget about the fact that he paid you for your time at one stage?

It is difficult, are you going to broach the subject with him or are you going to wait for him to approach you? Question Question Questions but at the end of the day you are the only one who can decide what is best for you. 

In my opinion no. As soon as any client hands money over then I only think of them as a client even if seconds before I was thinking 'phwoar yes please'. I couldn't date someone who had paid to fuck me as it only shows me what he thinks of women, just a commodity to be bought. I have no problem being that commodity and know I am a whore but I don't need to be reminded of that at the end of my working day.

I met my husband in this industry (driver only in it for the money and never used escorts) and once I'd seen him turn down countless other agency girls advances, including threesomes with me, I realised it really was all about the money for him. I warmed to him overnight and 6 months later we hit it off, 2 years later we got married and we've been married for 2 years. He now has his own at-home business and drives me to all my jobs so it's a perfect arrangement. I'm incredibly lucky to be a success story and to be with someone who loves and respects me and my career.

P.S. I made him wait nearly 2 months before he enjoyed my goodies despite pretty much living together and he happily waited. Sometimes making them wait is good for 'em 

When I remet my exclient he was going through a divorce.The only reason he was seeing escorts from time to time was because he had an abusive wife who withheld any form of affection and then left him for her first husband.I guess in the booking we had it was work for me and I did not give him a second thought.It was meeting him on a night out and talking that made me think differently and it works at the end of the day.He no longer goes elsewhere for affection and I no longer just spend my time working or fretting about work.

Yes I believe it's possible. I have dated 3 clients (in 5 years)  and whilst none were the love of my life they were all good, decent men and I never saw them as 'clients of prostitutes' in the same way they didn't see me as 'just' an escort.  They didn't work out for various reasons, none to do with the job.

I would definitely avoid hobbyists and those who see lots of women all the time because I think men that do that have a skewed view of women and I suspect they would be the sort that get off on 'new' pussy as opposed to men who do it occasionally for relief or affection so probably wouldn't trust them to be faithful. There are definitely different 'types' of clients and I think once you've done this job for a bit you can spot the ones who are trying it on because they either want a freebie or want an escort girlfriend. those sorts fetishise escorts and all they can see is lots of exciting sex or see it as a pass card to shag other women or even because they just get off on the idea.

Oh, and avoid the attached one- rarely does any good come out of being a mistress instead of an escort! You just lose a payer!

I think it's possible to meet a special someone in any situation however unlikely anyway-but I'm a romantic albeit a cynical one!

The secret, I think is to insist on going out on dates and not having sex for a while (as opposed to just coming round to bonk you) - you soon figure out their intentions if they won't do this!

EDIT; just read the other posts about witholding sex- I don't mean for long- that's asking for trouble- but I think ensuring it's not just about sex is really important in any relationship regardless of how you met.

 I would suggest  that younger escorts (say those in their teens and 20's) do get more clients who book to fulfill a fantasy of shagging a younger woman and it is more about their looks or services than personality.  Obviously I'm not saying that's the only reason or younger women are only booked because they are totty.

Escorts a bit older do get the men who are on an 'older woman' or MILF thing or want the mummy/auntie/mates mother role play - I guess that's sort of the equivalent.

back on topic, I do think older escorts do have a different outlook to clients which probably makes them more likely to consider a relationship with a client... this is a massive topic of debate in itself though.

Thank you all for your input and I agree with all of your points; I think it is very circumstantial. I would never judge a person on their choice to see an escort in the same sense I wouldn't like to be judged on being one; there is more to me than my job.

But here's the real down low: so sometimes I do a bit of webcamming, not often though as I now find it tedious in comparison to escorting. There's a guy that I had always chatted to, and when I say chatting, I actually mean just chatting (strangely). He spends hours, and lots of money, chatting to me. We speak about lots of different things, and very rarely about sex. He is young, very intelligent and uber handsome.... and, according to him and his feedback, has NEVER seen an escort. We get on very well and have loads in common, however, he has been making hints at booking with me just to be able to take me out and spend time with me in person. Now part of me really wants to as I think we'd get on marvelously but the other part of me doesn't want to because then he would be a client, and right now that's not something I am comfortable with.

what do you make of that??

I met a client 3 years ago and somehow we really clicked and started a relationship slowly. 3 years later we're married with a little boy. I quit working and he quit escorts. It's the best relationship I've ever been in. I understand it's extremely rare but it can work if you're both willing to look past each other's past and make the dream work.
