If anyone is taking this too seriously, it's the person who speculated on why a john might actually like a hooker or a hooker might like a john. I'll explain: they aren't fucking meat puppets solely put on earth for your sexual enjoyment, or walking breathing ATMs; they're people.

Now, this means like all people, some you won't be able to stand, some you can tolerate but have no chemistry with, some you like. And this game isn't goddamned eHarmony, so people trying to use this as a substitute for dating are doing it wrong, totally, completely, utterly wrong. But the experience is much nicer when you're fucking someone whose company you enjoy when her mouth isn't stuffed full of your cock, or someone who's only tolerable when he's taking money out of his billfold. I don't expect that a couple hundred dollars buys me a life-long friend, but I don't see why I can't be friendly and see if the Golden Rule works.
