I agree with you sweetmilf. Though I certainly wasn't looking for love or a several months-long mind fuck while doing this. And I certainly I won't be looking for it in the future.
I'm not sure if it's all got to do with skills. There is a big element of luck in any situation, not just this job. It takes two people (woman-man, woman-woman, man-man) attracted to each other more than just physically, willing to commit to each other in a way that works for their individual characters and circumstances (monogamous, polygamous, civvy-civvy, escort-escort, civvy-escort). I try hard not to generalise, we are individuals. I don't want to turn into a hater. I have known women who can be shag machines and men who chose to commit to only one person, whether sex is involved or not. Maybe it's not the female and male nature to these things but it happens. What separates us from 'beasts' is that we act with more than our nature, i.e. also our mind and soul, whatever the hell that last one is.
