Hi Larah,

If I've understood this right, you are asking about 'social only' or 'companion' escorting, to which the short answer to your question is no, there is no market for this whatsoever. There are, however, plenty of people advertising as 'companion' agencies who will tell you otherwise, because they want you to give them money.

Everybody on this board bar the Advertisers and Project Workers is a prostitute, and this would also go for the people you know if they are earning any money (which would probably explain why they are being cagey about it). People do not (or only extremely rarely) pay total strangers hundreds of pounds to have dinner with them or take them to the theatre - why would they, when they can hire one of us for exactly the same thing and get sex as well?

You can 'class' yourself how you like, but without having sex for money, you're not in the 'escorting industry'. The good news is that being treated like 'trash' is not part of it either - I have been a working prostitute for over eight years, and not only can I count the number of times this has happened to me on one hand, the appointments were terminated immediately and the client asked to leave. The media portrayal of prostitutes and client couldn't be further from the truth - we are not dopey, desperate scrubbers who'll shag anything that walks through the door and our clients are not sleazy, smelly old perverts in dirty macs either.

I'm sure you don't mean any offence, and I'm sure none has been taken, but 'escorting' as you are describing it does not exist. This forum is for sex workers, and unless you are prepared to reconsider your plans, we can't do anything to help you, I'm afraid.

However, there does seem to be a market for massage with a 'happy ending' where full intercourse does not take place...

I do class myself as the higher end of the escorting industry as I model for a living and also an aspiring actress.

No offence taken - but if you believe that men only book Escorts who look like Fashion models you have an awful lot to learn about men,  about sexual attraction and about Escorting in general.

Also, your average working Escort does more than just 'aspire' to be an Actress - its a day in/day out part of the job description...

And I mean no offence to you, I'm just sayin...

i know i had the same hopes too, when i first started, do i have to do the sex, cant you just pay me loads for nothing much? anyway, to add on to what another said, there are ladies who offer just massage, and no sex whatsoever.  These ladies tho are trained, and many of them offer specialty stuff like tantric massage, etc....so if you did that, you would be a masseuse not an escort provider

But doesn't that still fall under the "escort" (aka: prostitution) umbrella? The lady is still a sex worker, and whether the guy sticks it in her mouth, vag, bum, hands or ear, she's still being paid for "sex"...

It certainly does count, assuming a sexual service (ie hand relief) is on offer - the brothel laws would still apply if two ladies were working from the same premises, for example. And if it's not and we're talking about straight massage, that isn't really a subject relating to this forum.

As for how we'd all be working as social-only escorts rather than prostitutes if there was a market, I most certainly wouldn't - I find the dinner date bookings and social time far more boring and difficult with people I don't know, and the idea that I would rather talk to a stranger, play nice and polish his ego for four hours rather than shag him for an hour couldn't be further from the truth. I'm more than happy with the status quo, personally.

Not so long ago I had an email from a newbie client, he asked something like did I offer sex? this was after a very awkward introduction that wasn't your usual "My name is xxxx, I've seen our website and am thinking of making a booking..........." more one-line email questions. Anyway when I confirmed of course I offered sex he went on to say "not all Escorts offer sex".

This myth is a myth. That's it pure and simple.

Escort=Prostitute

Even if you join a dating site, sex is more often than not expected fairly soon.

Hi everyone,

I have just joined this site, my name is larah, I live in Cheshire, if anyone could help on a few questions that would be great!

Is ther any way that I could do escorting ie events, dates, companionship etc but with a view for further in the future but not selling my time and expecting me to just take off my clothes and doing whatever he wants like I'm trash!

I do class myself as the higher end of the escorting industry as I model for a living and also an aspiring actress.

I offer social-0nly bookings and I have done 2 this month and had to turn down a 3rd because I'm not available.  However, all these guys were booking me socially to see if we got on before they booked me for a longer dinner/overnight...to check out the goods, as it were.  One of of them didn't, and one of them did.  It always surprises me when I get social requests but I am a bit of a, hmm, geek/intellectual and try and make that part of my USP (every girl has to have one!)

As Paris says, these social bookings really feel a bit like internet dates.  And often...they are BORING!  

There are some (very few) ladies out there who only do social stuff, dates, events.  And my guess is, is that they don't look like models, are highly educated, in their mid20s at the youngest and have very good social and conversational skills.  Being incredibly attractive does not necessarily make someone "high class" (what ever that means, anyway) and if you're a social escort, then you're not just going on your looks, so being a model isn't so much of an advantage.  If a client is going to take a social escort to a business event or wedding, a 5'10'' 20-year-old glamazon isn't going to blend in exactly!

If you don't want to do the sex I would recommend tantric massage.  The big high-end tantric massage agencies in London like young, model-types, and charge ?200-250 p/h, of which they take 35-50%.  The clients are mainly arabs and americans.  Indie girls in London charge ?70-?150 ph.  In Cheshire though, I imagine that 90% of your business would be incalls
