I have decided to give up escorting and will finish in a months time.

It has been very draining and stressful trying to make the decision but I now feel I am at a point in my life where I need to stop.
I may come back to it in the future, but for now I need to put this chapter in my past.

It has been lovely speaking to you all and I will still post

Can I ask why? Is it for your boyfriend? You are obviously very young and have your whole life ahead of you. Most relationships don't last and I wouldn't give up things just for someone else at this age. On the other hand if it's because YOU want to give it up then seriously good luck! Have you got plans for other jobs? A lot of girls end up coming back to escorting after giving up because they can't make the same money or find it a struggle. When I do retire I'll make sure it's for good.

That sounds like a really good idea! You know you could still do 1-2 jobs a week or even a month just for a little extra money. I want to do beauty therapy and I'm going back to college but will still probably take a couple of bookings a week even if I did end up working in a spa for example. Until I want to settle down and hopefully get married and have a family but that would be at least another 5-10 years down the line though! Lol

Your right you need to put your health and emotions first always. Good luck!xx

how long have u been in?? i have been in 5 or 6 months and already a bit fed up cant be bothered with the timewasters and banter, so many dont read the profile and i can feel myself getting arsy "PLEASE read my profile and get back to me". I will be only taking bookings now thats it.  I am turning so many tws away it is a full time business in itself ha.. good luck and i hope you find yourselfxx

Best of luck Emma in whatever you decide to do, I know you may be deflated but if you know that you can (and have) done this then you can probably do anything you want!x

to deal with the timewasters you have to have some sort of routine ie script as to what you say to them when you call so that  its easy to deal with them   Most guys dont read the profile especially if you simply only using adultwork. 
  Adultwork (imo) is the equivlant to the newspapers adds most of the time   
 
I have been doing this over 10 years  and i can say while there are days i get fed up i havnt ever felt that i want to give up
when i get fed up  i think well if i was to quote the guys on uk p  if i was working in tesco i would be fed up and earning far less so i count my blessings  and put on the stockings     
However good luck with whatever you decide to do

When I was 5 or 6 months into this, I was making money doing absolutely NOTHING lol. That was right before the recession.

What it's going to take in the business is to get enough people fed up with the relative lack of stability and start dropping out. Then, the supply and demand curve will switch back into the escorts favor and we'll get the upper hand.

I too am getting out the business, but only locally. But that's what it's requiring in order for me to get involved with someone. Hell, I know clients who don't even hire local trade because they want to be discrete in their home town.

I can say the same, getting fed up only motivates me to travel and seek out new markets. But, sometimes you get fed up with other things too that atleast warrant a break and time away. Or at the very least, have a requirement of what type of clients one is willing to take. Especially when your boyfriend is chattering away about how disgusting the guy who he passed by is...and how I get told that if people in our friend circle found out I'd be disowned.

A bich don't want to listen to that shit. But it's not worth staying in anymore atleast locally because how much money am I making to show for it? I know it's not normal, but over the years I've almost been lead to believe that it is. What bubble have I been living in?
