Is escorting worth it?

[LastHope30Something]

Sounds extreme but considering this if I can’t get a job in a month or so because I’m so fed up of having to watch everything and feel like I get punished for treating myself. Sounds childish I know but my headspace seriously needs a boost. Obviously this won’t be my first choice but if things don’t change then choice is out of the question. Obviously I wouldn’t do the extras just dinner dates and girlfriend experience etc

here’s why I’m considering it
*extra money for me and my family.
*can treat myself more to boost my mood.
*can afford the work I need done.
*help me get over this past few years.
*get to relive my youth by going to fancy bars and restaurants also save up for travel.
*if things go shit with my family and in laws the money can go towards daycare or if me and hubby need a break.
*pontentially more opportunities in life.
*feel more wanted and useful. Also it will get rid of my low self worth.

Agreed.

Giving it a little twee name doesn't change anything.

In fact it just makes both the prostitute and the punter sound as though they're in denial.

And also the pimp if they have one.

no it doesn’t. It means cuddling etc.

What made you bump a year old thread?

Nowt

What made you give a shit? I was just browsing I’m so sorry

Having worked with sex workers for many years in many differnt capacities:

*you won't gain any self worth
*it's work, you won't be having fun
*will traumatise you and won't help you get over anything

Obviously this is a rule of thumb, and you'll probably find someone willing to tell you that it's great and glamorous and to go for it. But more often than not it wrecks your head, blurs the lines of boundaries and self worth. The majority of the people i worked with got trapped in a vicous cycle of needing money for drink/drugs and then needing the drink/drugs to go through with it.
