I had a really bad booking yesterday, my worst one yet. He had stalker tendencies and was really creepy which in turn made me feel really uneasy when he touched and kissed me. It was just an awful time. As soon as it was over and I was on my own I had a text off a regular just asking how I am and it really made me smile and after the bad booking made me feel really appreciative of him. I felt more than appreciative but I don't want to sound like the escort version of a "fluffy" (or whatever they say). Hes a youngish guy with a business and is quite good looking and even though he has feelings for me it never seems deep or uneasy, we always have such a good laugh. It also made me feel happy and quite lucky when I thought about a couple of other clients. The one who text me though is lovely his only downfall is that he's practically in love with me and has a girlfriend. I know most of you will cringe at that and wonder why I still see him if he expresses such emotions but he's very understandable and never ever pushes any of those feelings on me. I do text him now and then and he's the only client who I have let know intimate private details. One time I text him saying I was in a bit of pain and he asked if he could drop some things off to me to make me feel better. Hes going through a really shit time at the minute with his business and some personal things and after feeling how I did yesterday about that bad booking I told him that when his girlfriend is at work I will nip over some time this week to see him and have a brew, he was over the moon. I actually told him I had quite a scary booking and he was quite upset, I've opened up to him about my previous relationship when that was going downhill and he would say the sweetest things to me and really helped me and I just want to do the same. Now I know I'm breaking about a thousand rules in the "how to be a good prostitute" book but this is just the way it is. We will never be more than just friends/escort/client, I know that he would probably like that an would probably end his relationship if it came to that but it just wouldn't work but for the time being its nice to have met a friend through this job and while it's complex and dangerous, it's working for now.

I just wanna know if any other girls have or have had that one client who went beyond business....

I have one client who sees me every weekend and he texts me sometimes during the week to talk about rugby or that he's been thinking about me. Tbh it doesn't at all concern me that he does this as he is my absolute favourite client, he would never send me a second text without a reply first and I do enjoy texting a drop dead gorgeous man about sports!! I tell him everything about my interests, friends, university etc on bookings because I still know a lot more about him and he knows that. I'd never do anything but text him outside work, like I wouldn't pop round for a cuppa, mainly because I have a lot of clients who pay to just sit and chat or take me to dinner, so I would be giving something I offer for money away for free. If I just walked in, got paid, screwed clients without a word, and left, I would probably think differently about that, but I never would give away something for free that I get paid for to a client if that person wanted to continue being my client. So in short: Yes, I text back my sexy favourite client regularly about mutual interests and absolutely fantasise about him too!

I figure you're not looking for advice as such, and I get that, since you mention "rules" you don't make a habit of this behaviour with clients, it seems to be just the one, so I won't give my 2 cents about how it's not very wise (since I would be a hypocrite too!). However, one thing to maybe think about is that increased contact with him means increased evidence that he is a client of yours which means increased probability of his gf finding out. An angry partner is NOT good for business in terms of safety, discretion etc

My main concern is this 'nipping over to his when his girlfriend is out' business. Sometimes men convince themselves they are having an affair, and sometimes they tell their partner. If you do this regularly one day she might also have an emergency and have to nip home for some reason - far too dangerous.

I'd be extremely careful, whilst it can be nice to confide sometimes some people will take the stance that they've given you time and an ear to bend, shoulder to cry on then expect you to do things for them - and I don't necessarily mean sexually.
