feeling stuck, need advice
« on: 07 July 2012, 05:14:11 am »
Ok.. here's the deal, I reside in the states and am considering becoming a working girl. However, (although i'm willing to deal with the possibility of people finding out) I want to try to do so in secrecy without peers knowing. My resources are very limited, I'm a broke college student out of school right now until next spring. I'm living with very unstable parents and am in constant fear of being kicked out and homeless. Not only do I want to be able to provide basic needs for myself, I'm a transsexual and have a transition to pay for. I'm fortunate to have a place to stay and parents who help me out, but I want to be able to have a safety net, be independent, and not be a strain on my parents. With the economy the way it is here, the amount of discrimination i'm faced with, and not having any real work experience on top of all that, it's been extremely difficult finding a job in even a fast-food restaurant. Of-course, I'm not giving up but even if i do get a job doing whatever, i just want to have options.

I feel reluctant about joining an agency (right now anyway) and don't want my own independent website because I don't know anything about either and am concerned about my privacy. I don't want photos of me just out there in the open on websites and I definitely don't want nudes floating around anywhere. What I wanted to know was is it possible to escort without having to put myself out there in the open? I'd much prefer to send photos of myself privately, perhaps via email or text message and then let clients decide if they're interested. I've browsed escorting ads on backpage.com and thought i could try placing ads and having people respond by email and remember/identify me by a signature symbol or photo in my postings. My resources are limited right now. I don't have my own car, my parents own and pay for everything I have, like my cellphone. so in-calls are out of the question and i probably will not be able to use my cellphone without risking my parents finding out or worse, clients stalking me.

I am currently sharing a car with my older sister, and even though they're having financial issues my parents are talking about possibly passing this car down to me in a month or two and buying her a new one, which would make everything easier. I was thinking, since I can receive emails from my cell, I could keep in contact with clients via instant messaging until i can afford a pay-as-you-go phone. that way I can keep in contact without having to give-out my number. I know I'd be taking a huge risk by traveling to locations to meet up with strangers and without anyone knowing. I figured I'd create the illusion that I have a friend who knows where I am or give my parents a partial location or something. is this a really bad plan? am I being stupid? I'm a tough girl and know what i'm getting myself into, but at the same time, unsure and don't know what I'm getting myself into and just need some advice regarding my situation.

I've been really considering escorting and have been researching information about it for a little while now and came upon this site through the process. I realize this site is for the UK but thought it was worth a shot to see what I can get out of this post.

wow, sounds like a tough situation. I'm in the U.S. too btw.

Honestly, I couldn't imagine doing this without either transportation or an incall place. Incall place is especially important, but for awhile I only did outcalls. Perhaps you can do outcalls to hotels and places near your area.

I wouldn't recommend having a client pick you up and take you back to their place. Just too much risk involved...but if you can find someone who seems sane and drives something nice, you can make the judgement for yourself.

You are probably better off keeping in touch thru email. Instant messaging is the epitome of time-wasters. Also, try google voice, a free service where you will be assigned a number to use. Warning...it's not 100% reliable and sometimes calls don't go thru, but most times they do and you can also use text. So they won't have your real number. You can even text chat from you phone/computer.

Thank you so much for responding. with Google voice, should i create a new email account with fake information or is it safe to use my existing standard email account?

It would be best to have a separate email account and telephone  for work. It makes things easier. Don't want to get the two mixed up.
