I'm not suggesting anyone become a therapist, but a bit of a chat about their other half during a booking is no skin off my nose. I'm being paid for my time, if they want a convo in the quiet moments, that's fine by me. I'm not saying I'd be comfortable to see gibbering emotional wrecks, but some guys just need a chat rather than see his doc or a therapist (which would be a lot cheaper than seeing a prozzie!).

it's not in my best interest if a guy gets therapy, nor if he "becomes more communicative with his wife", his sex life might improve and I may loose a client

I'd rather lose a client because of this - I guess that makes me a bad businesswoman

My reasons for not wanting to act as an emotional sponge are because 1. There is clearly a problem in their relationship if they are coming to see me, and I don't want their negative mojo around me 2. I don't think people should cheat end of. 3. because of these beliefs I am most likely going to put my foot in it.

So its best all round for me to change the subject

Interesting, mixed views here which is good, we can't all be the same or the world would be quite boring! I'm an open person so my problem is if a client wants to talk I talk, I find it hard to change the subject. For example, I often share my view which is that I don't believe any man or woman can only look at one person their whole life. Perhaps I'm justifying their actions by saying that but I personally don't believe in marriage or monogamy..

I couldnt care less, infact I find it interesting and also more friendly when a client opens up to you, I enjoy a good chat and getting to know a client during a booking so I dont mind him talking about his missus

One of my regulars was sadly widowed (is that the right word? lol) early this year, and he often talks to me about his wife, places that meant a lot to them both and how he and his son are coping, hes a lovely man and I am glad to be there for him when he needs someone to talk to

Depending on the client, sometimes I'd rather be chatting to them than shagging them, lmao

Call me greedy, but I'm in this for the money, I'm no" free humanitarian" that for sure.

We're all in this for the money, I certainly wouldn't listen to them talking about their other halves if they weren't paying me!

Wouldn't either Cat never, money first lol.
