I am trying to decide whether i should give up my life as a prostitute and marry a financially secure guy. Since most of my customers are married men, I really do not trust men as romantic partners. I know their dark and sleazy side that they hide from their wives. I feel that I have the best life as a prostitute. I am independent, make good money, have great sex more often than most married women and I am not burdened by my love for a man. I can never be hurt or betrayed because they mean nothing to me; it is all about sex for money, even though I often enjoy the sex and many of them are handsome.. Also, I do not have to cook, clean, or care for a family. I have platonic friends who provide me with the real love that a person needs, not the burdensome romantic love that marriage is based on. I can refuse to have sex with any individual who is repulsive,but there are still enough acceptable ( and unfaithful) men so that I always have a steady, business.
On the other hand, if I get married, I will be stuck having sex with one man, which would bore me to death; I need the excitement of being with different men. Also if i stop prostituting, he will have most of the money so he will have the power in the relationship. I will never make as much money doing ordinary work as I do as a prostitute. I make between $2000 and $4000 or more per week depending on how many men I sleep with and what sex acts I perform. If I marry and love this person, he will also have the power to hurt and betray me. He will expect me to provide a home life and be his friend and confidante. I don’t want to waste love on a man who is not a valued platonic friend.
He thinks I am crazy to not give up my profession and love only him. Why is that crazy? Why is it wrong to love being a prostitute? Here are some facts: 50% of marriages end in divorce before 5 years; at least 75% of men have cheated on their spouses; 80% of men who visit prostitutes are married. It seems to me that married women are the crazy ones. At least I know that my customers are married, but my customers’ wives do not know that their husbands are sleeping with me.
I would especially like to hear from former prostitutes who gave up the life for marriage. Was it worth it?
