Fortunately, my 1.3" of dangling death has become immune to the laughter and gasps for air.

#1 for me is

1. (A) Have fun & (B) don't get caught

Everything else, and there's a lot of things I've learned since 04, all go into helping either A or B.

That's a good one Laura Lynn, applies to hobbyists and providers. It's easy to do when you have great sessions and spend a lot of time together. Reminds me of actors and actresses that "fall in love" while filming a movie, even divorce their spouses, and maybe get married, but it never lasts.

I did this back in Dec 2012, when I had barely been in the biz for a year. A client claimed he loved me and wanted to have a future, wanted to get married someday, and said he would take care of me, didn't want me to work. I was skeptical, but I let him convince me, and even convince me that I was in love too. It was very awkward when my ex-clients would call or email me, and a couple even stopped by my apartment when they couldn't get hold of me to make sure I was ok or to give me a Christmas gift.

So he got a divorce, we got a house and moved out of my apartment, changed my number,(I've since changed it back to my original number), {but I still got frequent emails on my provider account, even though I had disabled my ads}

But in the back of my mind, I was always thinking, "this is a man who cheated on his wife with numerous providers so why wouldn't he cheat on me if we get married".
And frankly, I missed providing. I would read ECCIE every so often and wistfully remember the nice, fun men I met.

And of course, the passion faded, we decided not to get married anytime soon, I started feeling like a live in housekeeper/maid, and I missed feeling sexy and getting validation on that from other men. I enjoyed that part of providing!

Broke up in Feb, and I got right back into as soon as I got an incall. So obviously, we were not right for each other if I got bored in those 14 1/2 months of monagomy, and just wondered if would always think of me as an escort. I think I was naïve expecting that we would get married and live happily ever after. If I had read more forums like this one, I don't think I would have done it.
