Breaking up with boyfriend..need advice
« on: 08 June 2013, 06:44:12 am »
     In short, we've been dating for about 6 months and we've said we love each other, and he says he can't live without me. However, even though I care for him intensely, I need to become an escort in order to earn money. I'm heavily in debt, and haven't been able to find other work.
There is no way I would tell him about becoming an escort because he would most likely freak out and possibly tell people.
It's not possible for me to stay in this relationship and be an escort. I would feel unfaithful, and be scared of giving him an std.

What is the best way to end our relationship? And some reasons I could give.

Thank you for your help. It's much appreciated!

"I am not ready to settle down and I need to see other men."

As well as being a version of the truth, it's possible he would be ok with this - there are several people here in open relationships - in which case you're not being unfaithful and he's aware of the STI issue. If that's the case, I don't think you would need to tell him that there is cash involved.

You could also try telling him that someone you know is doing it, and gauge his reaction.

It's surprising sometimes how guys react. You think they'll be okay with it and they're not, and then there's the ones you'd think will be very anti and they are okay with it. Completely okay.

I agree with the others, but I'd also point out that nobody needs to become a prostitute to make money - millions of people are in debt and they're not all bunging up Adultwork profiles. There are other ways to manage debt and if you're only entering the industry because of this I don't think it's worth losing a relationship over - we have threads on here with all sorts of good information for people with money problems.

Apart from anything else, you can't assume that you'll make the money you need - times are hard for a lot of ladies and if you read through some threads there are people barely getting one or two bookings a week in some instances, which I doubt would even amount to minimum wage. I would have a thorough read through some more discussions before doing anything rash, anyway :).

And there are women getting two bookings a month too unfortunately  >:(

I'm not sue breaking a good relationship (assuming it's good) is the best idea if you're not sure -yet- you'll be making money in the industry. I would give it a try and if you see this is something a) You can deal with and b) you can make money, then I would re think my relationship.  But don't think you're going to go into escorting and start making $$ right away.

Thanks for everyone's quick responses. He's going away this summer to work and will only be visiting every so often. I will probably end it at the end of the summer. And you're right, I'm quite young, so I do want to make the most of my life right now.
Thanks again!

Or just tell your bf money is more important than the relationship bye. I am staight up with people no point feeling guilty as our choice should be some thing proud of.

Just a thought Lillie, but why wait till the end of the summer to finish it, when, if you finish it now (that's if you really want to finish it) then you will have a summer boyfriend free and can enjoy yourself in anyway you want throughout the summer without any of the restrictions of thinking "oh he is coming back on xxx a date" I cant do that.

It is about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart,
And most importantly a beautiful soul.

many girls on here have relationships and work some have partners that know others don,t.
It depends how you want a relationship to be surely he has a life ie work a hobby during that time work tell him your doing stuff. He sounds possessive which is not a good thing. correct me if I am wrong. I had a date and was seeing him a few weeks and mentioned a friend escorted he went off on one and I thought at least I know anyway the dates ended...

I gave up work for a guy and two years later we broke up and here I am again! I lost all my regulars, found myself a tiny bit out of shape (nothing a couple of months in the gym can't fix though) and considerably poorer than I would have been.

In my case he knew what I did and then over a period of time basically held it over me like he wouldn't continue the relationship if I didn't give it up, which I did and I think that was instrumental to us breaking up actually because he liked the thrill of the chase and it was too easy for him in the end. Very sad but I wouldn't give it up for a man ever again AND I would NEVER tell someone what I did because even if they act like they don't care, I reckon its hard for a man to bear.

So I know this is pretty much the opposite of what you are wanting to do (to break up with him). I guess what I am trying to say is maybe you could just keep working and not tell him?

I wouldn't think it would be fair to escort/prostitute and keep that from your partner? He would wonder where your going, wheres the money coming from..I tried that and it was too stressful and he sussed it out. I denied it because I didn't want him blabbing about my business but I did feel bad. But I'm happier without him as I enjoy my job and we are friends (with benefits  :D) now.
Happy days!!

i have been with my boyfriend for 9 months now, he found out from my laptop in the first month.
it was very difficult, its never easy, i still feel guilty everytime i meet client. I promised him i will give up when i make enough money, he cant changed my decision but he still love me, we are just like normal couple.

i think if he truly love you, he will accept the way you.

I have been in a similar situation, I had a long term relationship that i knew was not right for me so I had no problem telling the man in question that I had started working, he was not the kindest person and that was also reflected in the fact he was more upset that I was starting to earn a good living rather than the fact of what I was doing ::)
I then cut my work right down when I did meet someone who I was very fond of only to find after a year that this guy was another frog, so I ended up with no money and a broken heart !! I have now learned my lesson hopefully :(
