A story of an social escort.
What Draws a Person into This Lifestyle?
It was Monday afternoon when I arrived in the City to meet one of my old friends. We had not seen each other in some time and I decided to go visit with her over my spring holiday. I had known for sometime what kind of
lifestyle she had been leading. I just had no clue how it worked and how she could make a living as a female "Escort."
When I arrived she had booked me a luxurious suite at a very up scale Hotel. Walking into the room was a treat in itself. A large desk, microwave, refrigerator, sofa, chair and T.V. caught my attentions quickly. Everything to make you feel right at home. When I opened the bedroom door, there was a beautiful king size bed. Dressed with pillows and shams to match the luscious comforter. The bathroom was dressed in black marble tile and brass faucets. I could have never afforded such a luxurious suite on my own salary.
It was not long before my friend showed up and we sat down and began my interview for this Article. I wanted to know all about her life and how things worked.
I wanted to know how she could possibly afford a hotel room so nice. I was very great full for her hospitality. This just seemed a little to much for a visit from an old friend.
Before I could ask another question she pulled out her blackberry and lined up one of her clients. There were several regular clients that she would see weekly.
Some would ask for only thirty minutes of her time, others would request several hours. New clients usually booked in thirty minute, one hour or two hour time limits. She always allowed her self time between each appointment to shower and dress for her next client. This way she gave the best attention she could offer to each person who requested an appointment with her.
When over looking her emails. I noticed that everyone used a code language. I totally had no clue as to what they were asking for and what it all meant. So my first lesson was to learn to understand the "Code" for the
"Escort" business. One person asked for a french kiss in his email. Requesting only a half hour session. She replied that the donation would be 50 dollars. Which I am told is more than reasonable for this service. Most escorts charge almost three times as much for their services.
At this point she began to tell me that many of them men were to busy to get involved in real relationships and found it much easier to just book occasional appointments with an escort. The escort then would go out to dinner or just sit and talk with them and often provide sexual favors for the right price.
She said that several men were just in need of cuddling and conversation. She often rubbed their back and talked with them for the entire appointment.
So sex was not always a part of her services. Of course each escort sets standards for what they will and will not do. When ever sex is involved she assured me that she took every precaution to protect both herself and her client.
I sat in the living room area of the hotel while she serviced several clients. I felt a bit uncomfortable at first. Then I realized that these were just normal business men dressed in suits or leisure clothes, there for a service. Much like seeing a therapist or doctor. Most of the men said hello and asked how my day was going. We made small chit chat until my friend was ready for her next client. Each time she appeared in a beautiful out fit, her make up and hair in perfect place.
She seemed to give special attention to each person. Almost every client asked when she would be able to see them again.
After four hours she came out and sat down beside me. Opened up her hand and showed me a vast number of 100 dollar bills. In four hours she had made almost 1000 dollars. Two customers had required a "french kiss" one customer had requested "full service" the others had just needed a back rub and some snuggle time. Almost afraid to ask........I finally needed to know what she meant by "French Kiss" and "Full Service"? She told me that a french kiss referred to Oral Sex. Either they requested to perform this on her or she was asked to perform this on the client. Full Service meant that they would want oral sex and everything up to and possibly including intercourse.
How does this differ from prostitution? What is the difference between an Escort, a call girl and a prostitute? The more I knew the more questions I had to have answered. I didn't want to hurt my friends feelings. But
most of the world does not choose this type of lifestyle as a way to make a living. My questions were hard for her to answer at first. There surely was nothing low class about where she was living or how she was dressed or the clients she serviced.
It all just seemed to be "Business."
My friend told me that "Call Girls" usually make "In Calls or out Calls" meaning they allow a man to come to them or they will go where the person is that wants their body. Most of the time it is strictly sex. They are paid for their body. Where as an "Escort is paid for her time." Not what she does with it. A prostitute walks the street, rarely uses safe sex practices and will do her deeds in a car or where ever the client can find a dark place. Making her activities low class and dirty to most of the public around them.
After a few days with my friend. We visited fine restraints and went out for an evening on the town. I found myself thinking that this was not such a bad way to live. It had me spoiled within a few days. Great cash flow, fine meals. Never a boring moment so it seemed. Her work took her in to the wee hours of the morning and sometimes through out the day. Depending on the demands of her clients. This is not a life style that I would choose for myself but how could I judge my friend for how she made her living? What seemed unprofessional to me, was very professional to her. She ran her services like a business. With the up most discretion and respect for her clients and their privacy.
