to ask if you would hire a male escort for the evening?

🤮

I'm not sure about the 14 years but maybe I overslept due to being overworked by all the busy ladies needing company occasionally ?
It really is a wonderful job for a well presented, worldly gent who can treat a woman like a princess every time she is out with him.
Why not have a go gentlemen ?

Absolutely not! I'm widowed. f I want to go somewhere, and don't have a friend who wants to come along as well, I'll be quite happy to go by myself.

@Noclutchjustfastforward what @EmeraldShamrock000 is saying is Why, oh why, oh Why (& how?!) did you resurrect a 14 year old thread??? 🤔

no. Just wouldn't even occur to me and it's impossible for me to imagine there could be a market for that kind of thing.

I'm sorry, I don't understand !
Incidentally I advertise that it is a Gentleman experience, straight not gay and no sexual favours.
No pressure on either person or expectations to perform.

@Noclutchjustfastforward Why ? A 14 year old thread?

It seems some readers don't understand.
You only need charm, knowledge, manners, a tidy presentation , sophistication, courtesy, well dressed and the ability to hold an interesting conversation.
For business women, globe trotters, those who are affluent, intelligent, career driven women with no spare time for relationships ,this would be a perfect arrangement , just another deal, but suits the client perfectly.
Be assured,to be the respectful, perfect partner that is required can be tricky (but I love it! )

No. I thought that was what gay friends are for!

no need to judge.

OP merely asked if postere would hire ana escort, not theworld's view on people who feel the need to pay for sex.

"...while sitting in your smug married ivory towers..."

I'm in a smug divorced ivory tower, may I judge?

To be fair, if I felt the need to have a male escort I'd prevail on one of my adult sons, so I do have options. Apart from heavy lifting, though, I'm not sure what I'd actually need them for... someone to chat to, sure, but as I said before, I know them. That's why I like to chat to them.

(Wonders whether male escorts are in fact any use at heavy lifting. Guesses that some of them might be. Realises couldn't afford one anyway. Returns to original non-hiring policy.)

BettySuarez (love the name by the way)

Yes I think I am. All I have said is that if I found myself single (at whatever age) I would use one if I wanted too :) that is all.

If I found myself single and maybe not ready to be in a relationship then I would hire someone. :)

Stars :o you are lucky - I'm not 50 yet!

But really 50 is hardly past it is it?

And I'm sure you wold have men queuing up if you were on the market :o

Honestly I'm not giving Stars a hard time, we're just chatting and I respect her opinion now that I know she thinks I'm not an old slapper

Stars you are being given a hard time on here today aren't you

The fact of the matter is that there are lots of male escorts/plus 1's - call them what you will, who are in high demand for their services (whatever they may or may not be ).

So there are clearly 1000's of women of would use this type of service. And I simply refuse to judge them for it. Each to their own and all that

TBH I think there will be less and less demand for this sort of thing as single person households become increasingly common. Part of the reason people feel they need a date is because they feel they stand out from the norm, but if the norm is no longer couples...

I have been single for nearly 5 years. It has never occurred to me to feel worried about going to various functions on my own.

Ok here's another one who can't accept that it is just MY OPINION!!!!!!!!!!

We weren't talking about getting SEX if you're older than 50, we were talking about using an escort for escorting purposes only!!!

We are all different EXPAT.............. you don't have to agree, thats why its an opinion :)

a simple original question of :- would you use an escort????

MY answer to the original question was YES I would. (if I didn't already have a wonderful DH)

'now don't get me wrong I'm not saying old but the older we ladies get I think the harder it may be to find romantic connections again....so lets say it may be a little harder over 50, '

Sure, if you're a nasty auld minger. But even then, you'd have to be pretty boggin' and sad to have to pay for it no matter what your age. You can go online and get it for nothing almost immediately on any number of sites.

LOL at the idea that it gets harder to get sex if you're older, 50, even! OMG!

Or I guess you can pay someone to shag you if you're a complete loser.

And if you are, and your mates saw you with some 'fit little escort' they'd know you had to pay him.

Get real! As if anyone'd be jealous of someone so pathetic they had to pay for it.

Oh well I can see that the thread has moved on a bit then

OP, only read your post and a few of the replies but I think that your 'friend' could find himself very busy indeed, although this might depend on whereabouts in the country he lives.

I am self employed and often attend business functions/networking events/conferences/award ceremonies etc and often feel as if I am stepping into a very male dominated environment and it can sometimes feel a bit intimidating.

I admit that this is as much to do with my own slight lack of confidence, then anything else and I see plenty of women at these events who do not appear to feel the same way that I do. But I'm sure that I can't be alone in this.

I personally wouldn't use an escort myself (and agree with other posters that 'walker' or 'plus one' might be a better description), but I'm sure that with careful marketing - he could hit the right 'note' as it were

now don't get me wrong I'm not saying old :) but the older we ladies get I think the harder it may be to find romantic connections again....so lets say it may be a little harder over 50, if I found myself over 50 (not there yet mind) I would consider using a fit little escort to make me feel special and to make my friends MEGA jealous lol :)

That would be telling :)

You have to name a number!! :o

This could be interesting :o

that depends curryspice......without sounding rude, how old are you? :)

I know Stars and I know you are just giving your opinion and I am genuinely interested in it - in a friendly and nosey way, not an agreesive way. Sorry if it's come across like that

I'm just concerned to find out if I'm too old to go out alone without anyone thinking I'm an old slapper :o

curryspice:

You obviously are as I've stated a few times it is ONLY MY OPINION!!! it is only what I would do should I ever find myself single again....

I work 2 jobs
volunteer at school
Spend all spare time I can find with DS etc etc etc

I just meant that if I ever found myself single again and was worried or nervous about being back on the market so to speak then for the odd night I would consider an escort service.

it's just what I would consider...:)
