I've heard that's actually pretty common among sex workers

[–] genevieve@sh.itjust.works 89 points 1 day ago (25 children)

It is, and it’s by far my least favorite part of the job.

men will force a sex worker to be their therapist before going to therapy

To be fair, my area of expertise is the girlfriend experience, so I understand how venting could be part of that. Still, I find the trauma dumping exhausting.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 22 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Wait so the "girlfriend experience" is more than just sex?

God see this is why I never bother to figure out how to find escorts. I don't have time to figure out how it even works

If you think about having a gf, there's a lot more to the relationship than sex. Nonsexual physical intimacy, much less anything emotional is extremely lacking for the average male not in a relationship.

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 5 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Yeah, see, I'm thinking "order 1 gfe to go" isn't for me.

I've been separated/divorced (for about 2, years) from a relationship where the intimacy was one sided. For 11 years I stayed married cause that was the only girlfriend I had too.

A GFE sounds like it would be a nightmare for the provider. Especially because I don't know how I'd handle it emotionally.

I gotta date real women first. Somehow.

[–] phdepressed@sh.itjust.works 4 points 12 hours ago

I can't speak to it as I haven't done one but I can get the desire. I never went on a date or had a gf or any sexual experience until I was 25 and it wasn't for lack of trying...paying for it would be a sort of bandaid to the issue of loneliness but I wonder if it decreases the chance of becoming an incel.

[–] ouRKaoS 15 points 21 hours ago

That's the "Escort" part.

At the high end, escorts have to go to events, dress well, be able to hold an interesting conversation, and essentially be in a relationship for a predetermined amount of time. Sometimes sex isn't even part of the equation.
