The one time it was great, I was 18yo and very naive… I went to the (upscale; didn’t know that at the time) whore house.
I paid, $35 for the room which left me with $20 for the girl. (I originally had $55 for the girl but I didn’t realize you had to pay for the room.) I told her that I had $20 and that I wanted to fuck. She laughs at me and tells me I’m out of my mind. Somehow, I got her to agree to a BJ. Half way through the BJ she just said F’ it and we wound up doing everything imaginable.
After the event, she told me to consider myself lucky. she normally charges $500 to $1000 for what I got. And they don’t even get to kiss her. Which is something else I didn’t know was a no-no, with prostitutes.
She just told me she was horny and that she doesn’t get a whole lot of young dudes as clients. Mostly old men.
My awesome S.O. hired a young woman to have a threesome with us. It was fantastic. She was fun, seemed to enjoy our company, and there was no time pressure. We tried it again with a different woman, it was okay, but a bit more sleazy. I wouldn’t do it again without knowing the woman was “our type.”
They will pay more than that. Elliot Spitzer dropped tens of thousands of dollars over several years.
Personally I don’t think it’s a big deal as long as you a) have the money and b) are single. And from what I’ve observed, it’s a lot more common than people think. It’s not really any worse than a one night stand and in many ways it is better. You don’t need to lie, “run game” or otherwise manipulate some girl into having sex. It’s basically a professional transaction.
The only thing I would really be concerned about is after years of sleeping around and banging prostitutes, you might have trouble with real relationships or develop an attitude that all women are whores.
I’ve been with a few prostitutes. Usually, it’s a vaguely disappointing experience. I don’t feel guilty over it, or anything, but I mostly end up feeling like I’ve wasted my money. It definitely doesn’t compare to having sex with someone with whom you’ve got a real emotional relationship. Honestly, though, there’s not a whole lot to tell about these sorts of things. You meet the girl, give her money, then fuck. The whole goal of the exchange is to cut out all the weird, awkward stuff that leads to a good story.
