Title: Should I give up escorting because of my husband?
Post by: Scottish Emily on 21 February 2017, 09:37:36 pm
My husband says he is happy for me to work as an escort but his behaviour is very confusing.
Sometimes he calls me a "cheap whore" Tonight we argued about something else and all of a sudden he said "go shag some guys" He also calls me bitch which he knows I hate.
I know you guys will be thinking yeah right but otherwise we have a happy marriage except for financial stress.
All the money I make goes in a box and he never touches it, I'm saving up.
He himself used to go to escorts before we met and he fully understands its simply a job with no emotional attachment.

I have asked him if he wants me to leave the job if he is unhappy about me doing it and he has said "it's entirely up to you what you do"

He is self employed and works very hard and is a great husband apart from this emotional abuse related to my job.
He is also a fantastic father to our 2 year old son.

The money will really help us and obviously I'm reluctant to give up my job because of that but I feel it's affecting my marriage and could cause long term damage. When he says these things it makes me feel so upset.
Any advice appreciated.

I don't want to be nasty but in my opinion maybe is worth to give up on husband. He has not right to call you any bad names. He must respect you and if this is choice which you did together then he should just accept it. I am in relationship too and if my darling will call me "names", he will find his things outside the house next day. If escort job doesn't work for you then give up for yourself but you must make a choice on what you will like to do.

I'm looking for advice please not for people to say I should get a divorce because there is no way I'm doing that and no need to do it. I'm very happy apart from this 1 issue thank you very much!

There's no way I'd be giving up a career I enjoyed because my husband was incapable of keeping a civil tongue in his head.

Talk to him then and tell him that his behaviour is painful and you prefer give up then destroy relationship. If he says that he prefers just carry on without you working then you must make a right choice. If he will say that he is still happy you to work then say that you don't wish any comments about your job.
You are doing it to give your child better life so he should just accept it and support you emotionally as escort work can be enough hard.

Chloe, your marriage is worth more than the money darling. He is saying he is happy, because like you say you guys are in financial difficulty. He clearly is not. This job and the money is not worth losing your relationship over. Relationships survive money troubles, they don't survive this job. If a man is accepting and compliant of this job, then I would take that as a bad sign. I say husband/family before job Just my opinion, wishing you all the best xx

He's not supportive of your choice to escort. Its up to you if you can live with his attitude and comments I know I couldn't if it were me I'd have to choose one or the other.
Escorting might make you money but it obviously isn't helping your relationship.
Title: Re: Should I give up escorting because of my husband?
Post by: RR on 21 February 2017, 10:33:11 pm
Have you thought about going to escort-friendly counselling, even via Skype, to talk about this?

Escorting can put a lot of pressure on a relationship, even if the other person has experience of being a client. Whilst I'd also say name calling etc is abusive, if you're looking to work through the problems together, it can help to sit down in a neutral environment and talk through it.

I'm actually going out tonight, but I'll drop you a whatsapp tomorrow xox

It's so confusing and upsetting. The money is mainly to save up for a deposit to hopefully buy a house this year. Also I want to take my little boy who is my whole world to Disneyland Paris for his 3rd birthday in July.
I have complained about his behaviour and he says sorry but continues to do it.
I don't see why I should give up the job and money just because of his behaviour but on the other hand I don't want my marriage to suffer.

Me and my partner get exceedingly nasty to each other every once in a while (we both have a nasty temper and some personal issues), yet he's never once resorted to using my job as an 'ammo' in an argument. Of course, circumstances differ but I'd say it does indicate your hubs isn't happy about it.

Personally, I'd not give it up, but I don't take well to people telling me what to do.
Title: Re: Should I give up escorting because of my husband?
Post by: VoluptuousCurves on 21 February 2017, 10:56:18 pm
My suspicion is that even if you do stop escorting, he will still abuse you about it during arguments. He's going for the cheap shot. Resolving that means changing your communication styles (both of you probably) so that when you argue you can reach a resolution rather than trying to wound each other.

This job is the main reason I'm living the single life as I know its rare for a man who doesn't meet you as an escort to accept it no matter what he says, your husband is most likely saying hes ok with it because its something you want to do for a better future, maybe his ego is bruised because you have to escort to make these things happen.
I was in a relationship with my daughters father for nearly 20 years. I wasn't an escort when we met but I became one from early on in the relationship in order for us to have a better life, he has never once in the 35 year's in total I've know him had an argument over my work or had him show me disrespect...ever.

It sounds like maybe he isnt fully ok with it. Which you could try talk to him about. Explain the names are really hurtful and it confuses you when he brings up your job. Escorting can be great, but you could look into other things. You could become a cam girl and make videos to sell. This is a more hands off approach and can make good money. Your husband may prefer this. =)

When he calls you names like cheap whore or bitch is it after a argument that has something to do with your job?  If so, I'd say it's the job that bothers him but if not, I'd say he uses hurtful names when he's upset and it doesn't have to do with the job--just a bad habit.

I wish you all the best, hon.  It sounds like a very tough choice.

No partner should ever call you names regardless of what you do for a living.
It sounds to me that he is the type of person who would say something else personal to hurt when you are having a row so if not whore then 'fat cow' or 'thick bitch' etc.
As has been said you really need to sit down and have a heart to heart with your husband and make a decision about it from there.Easing into webcamming might be a good compromise to see if this makes a difference to him and his choice words.

Deep down, you know this:  he's not OK with you doing the job.  He is trying to be, but he is throwing it back at you every argument so it's simmering under the surface.

If it was me, I'd have a long chat with him about it.  Try to get him to tell you how he really feels in a calm grown up way, if he's not OK with it and tells you so, you can go from there.

I can't tell you what to do but what I can tell you is if it were me, and I loved him and my relationship was great in every other way, as you say yours is - my husband before my job, every single time.  Only you can make the decision to stop but I know what I'd do. 

Good luck sweetie.  :-*

'Go shag some guys'. Really

If somebody, not to mention my husband, said that to me, that would be it. Well anyway he clearly is not ok with your job, doesn't accept what you do, never will etc etc. Expect him to get more brazen, and soon.
 My advice- change the job, or a husband, depending on which you think is going to be better for you in the long term.

P.s i have a 'boyfriend' and he would never dream of talking about my job in that manner, we only speak about my job, when I choose to tell him, which is very rarely. If somebody who doesn't have to 'shag other guys' for money started to mock my profession he would not see my face ever again, ever ever ever

I don't want this to sound harsh, but I doubt what any strangers say on an online forum is going to help you make any sort of decision - perhaps demonstrated by your response to the suggestion of leaving him. Only you know the state of your marriage and what, if anything, can be done to make any necessary reparations.

That said, I agree with some of the other ladies about his terminology and what it suggests he thinks about you escorting.

Of course he isn't going to like your choice of career but calling you name's like that isn't on in any shape or form regardless of what you do for a living and as vc mentioned even if you stopped he would probably still use it in arguments against you, a nice guy wouldn't behave like that, your doing a job that can sometime's be difficult so that you can both have a home of your own and you can take your little one to Disney, personnely if I had a partner (I don't want one) and he spoke to me like that I would get rid of him carry on escorting work a little more, save a little longer, still buy my own property and take my little one (if I had a little one, mine's grown up now) not to Paris but to Disney land Florida instead x.

Yes, me too. My ex was verbally abusive. I wasn't doing this job then but if a man thinks if's okay to treat someone this way then it doesn't matter what job you have. They will still talk to you the same regardless.

This.

Also I don't think anyone can help you with this except YOU. We all have different priorities and different limits. Some girls wouldn't accept any offensive girls. Me personally won't accept anyone calling me those names. I know girls having normal job but their partners are bullying them constantly so I don't think it's because of your job. It's because of him. However I am not willing to talk against your husband or your marriage. It's just my opinion that in one good relationship there is a respect on first place even before the love. Basically what I mean is that you have to ask yourself what are your priorites, what's your goal and what you want to achieve by saving the money from this job. And mostly, what are your accpections from your husband, how you see your self in few years?

I'm no expert with relationships but you can give up escorting and always go back to it.
Harder to give up a relationship then get it back. 

As others have said you need to discus with him and make it clear that the effects of what he says has on you.

Hope it works out for you xxx

Post by: Scottish Emily on 22 February 2017, 11:16:16 am
UPDATE
I had a serious chat with him about this.
He has promised he will never ever call me these sort of names again. Also I should only discuss aspects of my job with him if I feel comfortable. My husband used to be a captain in the merchant navy which is a very good job. He left when I became pregnant with our son. Sometimes I think he is a little insecure because I make more money than him at the moment. He has his own small business. This is ridiculous but you know what men can be like with their "male pride" and all that.
He said he called me these names to get a reaction when we argued but he knows this was wrong and will never do it again. He also assured me that he doesn't have a problem with me continuing to escort and if he ever does he will tell me.
To the lady who said about Florida instead of Paris. My little boy would NEVER sit on a plane that long so Paris is a more practical option.

That sounds really promising :)

The acid test will be next time you argue of course. I hope he will stick to his word.

I think a lot of men find it emasculating being the lower earner in the relationship. It shouldn't be that way, but they have spent a long time absorbing those messages about being "the breadwinner" and how a "kept man" is a demeaning thing to be. I don't think most of it's even a conscious reaction.

Post by: MsDee on 22 February 2017, 11:51:17 am
Chloe,

You need to sit down and talk to him about how it makes you feel when he calls you those names and try to come to some sort of resolution.  He might be a fantastic husband and father otherwise but emotional abuse is emotional abuse and a real man would not be that demeaning to the woman he loves.  He needs to grow up.

Personally I think it is bothering him and I would give up, you could try camming if you need the money it is not as much as you make via escorting but it is a good money earner if you put the effort in.

You need to talk to him about his behaviour when you argue it is unacceptable and just give him an ultimatum that if he really loved you he would not use such demeaning hurtful words during an argument and if he does not stop it he leaves you no option but to reconsider whether the marriage is worth the emotional abuse.  Personally I would not stand for it.

There are no perfect relationships, no perfect partners.  Leave when he gets abusive (emotional, psychological, physical etc).  Other than that, he's probably a fine/normal dude. 

Having said that, I agree with several ladies who commented on LTRs whilst escorting.  Especially, VC, MH, DM...  I have seen some posts, mentioning some men seek out escorts for dating (e.g. sexually liberated, good in bed, money she brings, etc).  However, love does tend to go through several stages.  Things never stay the same, what was fine at the benning/1st stage may not be fine in the much later stages.   If this guy isn't usually abusive, then makes me wonder if his honesty comes out during the heated argument. 

He is not in a position to say, escorting isn't great because he knows he/the family "needs and wants" the money, and all the luxury like a holiday it can afford.  He knows the score. He's using his logics/reasoning to "quietly accepting" or he has no other choice.  You say, that he used to see escorts.  I doubt he's doing that if money is tight or if he respects you too much to do that.    Money is power and he knows he shouldn't have said, but maybe, if he actually meant that?

Men usually want a Princess, to look after, provide, protect and nurture etc.  Having said that, I'm sure some men will gladly "cope" with their partner escorting for money, especially, if he liked her a lot, but for others, I bet it could be so hard to see their wife "entertaining men".  At least, he's trying hard to keep things going.

I'd like to point out that not all people believe in sexual monogamy. There are actually many, many people who don't just cope but genuinely do not mind, because they do not find sexual exclusivity to be of any importance.

Well I can only speak for myself, but me and my partner are not poly nor in a genuine open relationship. He has my permission to sleep around if he'd want to, but he never uses it. He also doesn't care about me working because he views it as only a job, but he'd mind if I started hooking up left, right, center in private. For him the concern is the potential of emotional attachment, not the sex. People come in all shapes and sizes when it comes to what they are comfortable with, tbh.

Which is why I specified sexual monogamy, we are both extremely monogamous emotionally-speaking.

I wasn't an escort when I met him? I started this job just in Dec although I previously escorted for 3 years ages ago.
We are very happily married and love each other loads apart from this issue which is now hopefully sorted.
Also we don't need the money, we get on just fine without me working. We do not depend on escorting money. It will just pay for additional things lik holidays or saving towards buying a house.

I would also point out that 'men want a princess' is a little erm... outdated. As a woman, I also certainly hold no desire to feel 'protected' or 'provided for' - I can do that for myself, and any partner who brought that to the table would be quickly shown the door.

I personally see sex as an emotionless act for the most part - I can count on one hand the amount of people I've slept with that I've had any genuine feelings for, and that was before escorting. I enjoyed casual sex without commitment. In a relationship, I am monogamous, but I've known people who escort and live in poly relationships as well as having monogamous ones. To me, it's just a job; I work set hours, I sometimes have to deal with people I don't particularly care for outside of a professional setting, I do my job, I get paid (well, I get paid first, but you know), I go home and kick off my 'uniform' of nice clothes. Shower. Change into PJs and slipper socks and watch my recorded TV shows.

I don't talk about my work at home beyond being tired of dealing with people that day, like anyone gets in dealing with the general public. Certainly not talking about the intimate side of it. We had to have long conversations about my job, including helping my partner understand this was no reflection on our relationship or my feelings whatsoever. It's never been about sex for me. I wouldn't say my partner is fine with it, but understands it, and it certainly has never been thrown up in an argument (my chronic messiness on the other hand... ::)).

In my opinion, I feel like it's possible he doesn't have a problem with your job at all but sometimes when people are hurt or angry they want to say the most hurtful thing possible. As others said, he's going for the low blow and trying to make you feel small. Just think about our clients, and how they will turn to attacking our jobs if they are affronted in some way, because it's the easiest thing to go for. For women in general, people like to attack our looks/weight etc. because these are typically sensitive issues.

I hope he sticks to his word, because this kind of verbal abuse isn't okay. It's concerning that during arguments he wants to personally attack you and make you doubt yourself. To me it's almost a childish tactic? Sounds like he understands now though.

Good luck x

I was lucky. I'd been with my husband for around 4 years when I started escorting although we'd only been married a short while. I didn't do it for the money, it was more about rediscovering myself and asserting my independence. He was very supportive, respected my decision, and treated me no differently. Most importantly, he never called me names or belittled me because of it. Had he done so I think I would have given up one or the other, and I would have probably regretted staying with him.

 His behaviour does not seem abusive to me, rather a hurt man struggling with the idea of his wife having sex with men for money that (I gather) isn't really needed. I think that that is perfectly normal. It would be a different thing if she was escorting when they met. I would find it quite difficult to fathom if mid relationship a partner told me that he wanted to escort to pay for holidays. I imagine that it will take a while for him to get his head around it. He could handle things more maturely but I don't think he has done anything to result in the divorce and separation of a father from his child. It sounds like he needs a bit of time to live it and decide if he can accept it and for him to work out his feelings abouthat he situation.

If he doesn't and can't accept it i think that that is perfectly rational. It isn't for everyone,

I hope that things go well OP and that he can get his head around the matter. It sounds like he truly wants to.

It seems peculiar to me that you'd get married then go back to escorting just for treats money.

I'm assuming the plan was for the marriage to be monogamous?  Did he cheat on you?  Or start accusing you of being lazy for not earning money?  Or are you a little resentful that he isn't earning more? (Not looking for a public answer, just some things to think about.)

I totally respect anyone's decision to work as an escort, but soon after marriage for Disneyland money?  Are you sure it isn't a passive-aggressive "F you!" for something else?  If it isn't, it isn't. If you just love the work, I get it. But I would spend a little time considering it.

I wouldn't call saving up to buy a house "treats money" Taking my 3 year old away for his birthday maybe could be described in this manner. My husband never cheated on me. For your information he finds me having sex with other men a massive turn on which is more common that you might realise.

God you're not kidding. My BF is very much into this aspect! It really surprised me at first how many clients ask about it as well and clearly get off on the idea. I get loads of requests for bookings where my BF fucks me and they watch.

I think with my BF there's also an element of "Those guys have to pay to fuck her, but I get it for free, because she wants me" which is an ego boost.

Yeah it's a popular fantasy for a lot of men that their wives have sex with other men. Ah he is too shy for that but he loves to talk about it and I tell him wee details now and again.

Don't be angry, just keep your goals in sight, and your right saving for a house deposit is not a treat, you have made an extremely unselfish decision to do a job that isn't always easy (tw's and so on) so that you and your family can have somewhere of your own to live, and as for a trip to Disneyland for your little one well why the hell shouldn't you, I hope you have a great time when you do go and maybe do the America thing in a few years  :).

Chloe do not worry about what other people say about your marriage and what your husband finds a turn on, it is your business and not theirs. 

Judgmental nellies might just find themselves in your shoes one day and trust me it does happen.

I went back to escorting because I like the money. It's never been about sex for me; it's a job. A well-paid job that afforded me a lot of opportunities in my life. Now that I'm older, it affords those I love opportunities as well. I enjoy my job insofar as I do meet some interesting people now and again - I find stories of lives terribly fascinating, and I seem to have one of those faces/personalities where people like to spill things to me. People think escorting is all about sex, and whilst its true that I have a bucket-load of sex in my job, I also spend a lot of time listening to people's problems, hearing about people's issues, and being an escapism for some men - whether or not they realise it. My last client admitted that he isn't very experienced, and struggled to maintain an erection, or come - a lot of that was reassuring him, treating him with respect, asking him things and perhaps having patience that he hasn't encountered before in civvy life. So even though I don't do my job to get off, and never have done, I can still enjoy my job and be very positive about it.

Despite what I do, I am monogamous, and so is my relationship - we have frank, open discussions about trust, commitment and honesty. There hasn't been infidelity on either part. If anything, it's probably brought us closer because we have had to talk about things, and in turn, my partner has had to trust me. Knowing your other half is out having sex with other people for money is kind of a mind fuck I suppose, and I maintained for years I would be single whilst I was an escort. But love happens.

My partner has never asked me for money, never inferred anything to do with money - if anything its me that buys little things here and there, I know its 10 days before payday and I've had a good week, so I'll go and spend ?50 on food for us, I'll take us out for a nice meal. Right now my partner is miserable at work and I would love to take us away for a nice last minute break, once I've paid down some bills I absolutely must pay. If it was expected, I would never entertain it, but its not. I do these things out of love, like I would do if I was in a well paid office job or whatever. My partner would never enjoy me talking about the sexual aspect of my job; I talk about the funny stories. And if I'm honest, once I close the door, unless its had an emotional or amusing impact on me, I forget about it anyway. I talk more about conversations I've had with clients about topics, in the same way other people talk about co-workers - I wrote a blog that a client was chatting to me about, on whorephobia, and that was more interesting to me.

My point is, in this long post, that it's a spectrum of experiences for those in relationships - some people enjoy the sex aspect, some people like the money, some people are just of the opinion that its a regular ol' job. It's not a one size fits all.

I agree he sounds like a man that hates what you are doing but doesn't want to hold you back so every now and again he lashes out, however that doesn't excuse his behaviour and he would be a lot happier if he was honest about his feelings rather than losing his cool every so often.

As for leaving escorting for him only you can decide that one, sometimes you have to be willing to lose someone to see if they will stick it out - I hope your husband does the right thing by you and you him.

My husband also never asks me for money. We have a very loving relationship and trust each other and are very happy.  My hubby is the opposite he likes to hear about the sexual side because it turns him on.
I also went back to it for the money.
He knows it's just a job.
We also haven't had any cheating!

You seem to have missed a big chunk of this thread, I've already said days ago that the issue is resolved!
