This thread is depressing on a few different levels.

Oh, I do try to spend as much time as possible with her. I do treat her really well. Her boyfriend and she currently live in a tent in the woods. Whenever there’s really bad weather, I invite them into my home to stay the night for a nice, warm, comfortable place to sleep. A place to get cleaned up/shower. Let them raid the cabinets. Buy them food when I can. But, the reality is, she does have a boyfriend and she does have other clients that she sees when I don’t have any money. I can’t monopolize all of her time. Usually she gives me a BJ or we have sex in the back seat of my SUV. There’s this guy, Darnell, in her neighborhood, who rents out rooms for $10 for johns/prostitutes to use for their sessions. We’ve gone there a few times. It’s just until I’m finished. I’m not going to lie, I sometimes have a hard time getting off. I’ve had trouble getting off because of medications in the past. She’s a trooper. She’s gone down on me for a good 30-45 minutes before until I finished. Even when her boyfriend started blowing up the phone to see where we were at. I do notice her habits. She’s totally shot up heroin in the back seat of my car before dates before. A couple times when we went to Darnell’s she totally smoked crack right in front of me before we started. Maybe once or twice it seemed like she was going to nod out, but she’s never actually fell asleep or not finished the job.

I’m 30. I’m a security officer. I’m not in any kind of relationship other than this. I would like to find a serious relationship. I’m looking for one. I’m just seriously socially awkward and have social anxiety and have trouble meeting and picking up women in a “normal” situation in a public setting. I’ve been open with friends and family about this. They’re not too happy about it.

You’re welcome. I just like being open. Makes things more interesting.

Well, I don’t know about any other prostitutes or any other of her clients, but Nicole totally kisses me all the time, with tongue.

Does it really need explanation? You are spending your time enabling and “falling in love” with a drug-addicted hooker.

A drug-addicted hooker with a boyfriend who smokes crack in the back seat of his car before blowing him for $50, or however much money he has at the time.

That’s not depressing at all! A regular Disney story.

And what about gifts? What does one get a heroin-addicted prostitute? Gift card to Panera?

You’re putting your penis in a needle drug user. If you have any self preservation at all, the disease risk from her drug use should scare you away before even the STD risk from her career would.

Just to add that prostitutes not kissing is myth; kissing and french kissing are fairly common in all types of pay sex.

“My Name Is Earl” has taken a really dark turn since I quit watching.

**joe** , we’re giving you a hard time because you’re treating this as a real relationship, when it isn’t. You’re apparently so starved for affection that you’re convincing yourself that you’re falling in love with this woman just because she pays attention to you. I strongly doubt that she reciprocates your feelings. If you want to be genuinely happy long-term, you’d be better off working on yourself and figuring out why you have trouble approaching wkomen more generally.
