Nobody on this board will tell you to quit...this is a hobby site, after all, and board participants are by definition going to be more pro-hobby. So keep that in mind when reading responses.
I can sympathize with your feelings. I too love my family and want to make them happy and proud. I'm fundamentally open and don't feel right about lying. And yes - I have absolutely become much more distant toward my old friends because of all the secret-keeping. It has made me a more remote person and that's not always a good thing (loneliness)...however, I've learned that if I'm happy and I'm at peace the people who love me (including family) will be happy with me...they don't need to understand everything about you. Just make sure you take *every possible step* to maintain online privacy. Don't assume that nobody will see your pics, don't assume that nobody will ever find out. Someday someone WILL see your photos.
If I had to do things over again, I'm not sure I'd do this...knowing everything I do now. I don't think there is a single escort out there who hasn't had an experience she regrets. There are sleazy people out there (guys and girls) and this business can also be sleazy (reviews being one way, w/so much pressure for high ratings especially in areas where it's very competitive). However, I've had experiences I wouldn't take back for the world and have met some amazing people.
I feel that you're probably hooked already...or if you do decide to quit, the next time you are running short on bills you are going to think of that quick $500 you made just in 1-2 hours sipping wine with a nice gentleman...so my best advice to you is: Keep a life outside of escorting. This is a great secret life, a great escape, a great way to make some extra income. Don't let it become anything else and don't let your guard down. Be whatever else you are first, and escort second (or third, or fourth, or fifth). Put your *life* first or else you will feel very unfulfilled and very lonely.
Also, don't trust all girls (I'm not directing this at the ones who responded to you). Some girls are great people. Some are decidedly NOT...you will unfortunately learn to be less trusting as you meet more people.
Above all: don't every compromise your safety, comfort, or principles (when in doubt, err on the side of caution)...and have fun

Good luck!
