Grand rising Kings & Queens!

Happy Sunday funday.  

I'm reflecting this morning. It's funny how life happens because this used to be my hobby. I've noticed how regardless if I need the money or not I always gravitate towards this lifestyle. The pleasure you receive from this hobby is addictive. Even when I had a salary career, and owned a home with the deed I still always wanted to provide because it's so much fun! Life is boring without this hobby/lifestyle.

The best argument to me is:

 
Life is short, then you are dead for a very long time.

I don’t know what else to call it though 🤔🤔
Lifestyle??🤷🏻‍♂️

I've railed against "hobby" for years and have nothing more to say about it.

But  "lifestyle" is already synonymous with swinging 😉 I'm also not a fan of using "industry" unless we're strictly speaking of the nuts-and-bolts/functionality/trends/SOPs at large scale. I've resorted to "slice of life" when referencing it but that's cumbersome and not terribly sexy....

It just sounds hip and happening and its French, which by its very nature, makes it sound sexy. lol.

There was a small group of ladies and gents back in the late aughts/early teens that used that term! They threw beautiful parties in NYC and Vegas, guys in tux/dinner suit and ladies in ball gowns, that typically spanned several days. Although almost everyone was paired up with a date (or several), the main point was a sort of Meet & Greet/social mingle.   It was great for networking on both sides of 'the demimonde' - that's how I met my ATF duos partner and made many of my long-term friends🥰  Sigh...  sweet, sweet memories. Yes, demimonde it is!

We’re all creatures of habits. The longer we do something, the more familiar we become with it. Familiar brings comfort and we are drawn to it. At some point, doing it is more familiar than not doing it. Stopping creates a hole, something we crave and miss. And the better you are at it, and the more pleasure you get from it, the more all of this is true.

 
This reminds me of one of my earliest experiences with a provider, one whom I discussed before. She didn’t need the money. She escorted her way towards an Ivy League degree. She initially thought she would stop once she entered her new degree barring profession. She even married a very rich man. They later divorced because he found out she was escorting behind his back. Not for the money, but for the lifestyle.  

 
Fast forward to me meeting her, she still didn’t need the money. She turned my 90 minute outcall, to an incall that was a date going out and staying overnight with her. She drew me in to a longer date and insisted it wouldn’t cost me more. I paid for her meal and mini golf, but hardly count that. When it was time for me to leave, she insisted on paying for my Uber back to my hotel. She did this all because she was drawn to a lifestyle she had enjoyed for many years, initially out of need.

I agree. Of course, being a provider comes with its challenges, but the good days are so fulfilling in many different ways. I think I'd feel off if I retired.
