Provider fallen for YOU?

If the answer is, "Not a fucking thing," she's not falling for you; you're getting played.

But wouldn't this apply to any relationship?

Probably. But in the real world, it's not as easy for guys to associate with women who wouldn't give them the time of day if money weren't involved, so the question would never come up. In other words, for some of us, money buys access to women about whom, outside the hobby, it would be reasonable to ask, "What's the catch?" if they came on to us. And if it's a reasonable question outside the hobby, it's a more reasonable one within.

There's always the exception to the rule.

I've lost count how many times I've brought clients off the clock permanently because I liked spending my time with them so much. Sometimes getting that oxytocin rush is worth more than gold. Considering the amazing connection, I probably could have turned them into my best clients, but I guess I'm just not a gold digger.

When I met my last LTR, he was unemployed, living at home with his mother and eventually had his car repo'd while we were dating... Did any of that deter me? Not even a bit. Looking back, I should have seen those things as red flags and gtfo, but you can't say there aren't some hopeless romantics out there that let love win over all else.
