… Because there’s one outside my window right now, which is unusual, I though most of them were near the highway, outside town… And I’m having some thoughts…

And yes I’m an adult.

    When I arranged the only meeting I’ve ever had with a sex worker she was very kind, put me at ease and it felt great. But it was just a slightly better version of whacking it. As soon as you cum, it’s straight back to reality. If that’s all you’re after, I say go for it. Be safe though!

    But there’s none of the fun you’d have with a “real” partner around the actual sex act(s). Whether it’s in a relationship or a casual fling, there’s still an emotional connection caused by the mutual attraction. As Motörhead said “The Chase Is Better Than the Catch”.

        Sufficient amounts of money can buy something that’s a close enough facsimile that you couldn’t tell the difference from the inside.

        I think that’s a problem that truly wealthy people have; you can never know if a person is interested in you, or it they’re after your money. For example, I think most people believe that Melania Trump is only with Donald because he has money, and she loses access to that money and power if she leaves. (Plus, she’s unlikely to find anyone with a similar amount of wealth and power at this point.) I’m fairly certain that I dated someone for a few months that believed that she treat me like a sugar daddy, and once she realized that I didn’t have as much money as she thought, she bailed.

        But if you have a billion or more in wealth? Pretty sure that you’re not going to be lacking people aspiring to be your partner.

          Women who marry or stay for money and men who buy such women deserve each other though.

          At point people have to own their choices. As for being “tricked”, I would have an adult person can read the room vis-a-vis if it is true love or not. I could be talking out of my ass, I am a peasant so who ever is staying with me prolly enjoys my great personality or some shit.

            I don’t know if the people with money can even tell if a person really loves them or not. And it’s not just rich men and young, attractive women; that goes both ways.

            I think that, if I were a billionaire, I’d have a very, very hard time trusting that any person I met was genuinely interested in me, and not my money. Unless they were also independently wealthy.

              Not generalize but these people don’t seem to stay together well either but I could be just projecting celeb culture while real owners do keep their wives.

              I was going more for having sufficient emotional intelligence to read your partner here though but does rely on them not being a TOTAL SOCIOPATH.
