I Became An Escort To Pay My Way Through College, This Is What I Learned
Anyone who has gone to college or is currently enrolled knows that the loans are beyond insane, especially when you go to a private college. I am am in my final year of law school and it’s definitely not cheap. My mother is a single mom and my “dad” hasn’t been in the picture. She always worked around the clock to support me and I knew I didn’t want these loans to fall on to her. So, I quickly began looking for jobs where I could make money fast. Never did I imagine I would become an escort. Never did I image that I would fall in love with a client.
One day, I was leaving Starbs on my way to class when I saw a flyer hanging on the telephone pole. At that point, I was desperate and willing to try anything that wouldn’t interfere with my class schedule. The flyer read “looking for a partner to accompany me to gala, will pay”. I honestly laughed out loud when I read it and took the number off. I thought it had to be a joke. Later that night, I decided to text the number out of curiosity. I was quickly surprised to learn that it was no joke.
A week later I received a package in the mail with a stunning designer gown. The note inside read “It’s yours to keep. I will pick you up at 7 p.m. tomorrow”. I couldn’t believe that this man was paying me to attend a gala and gave me a designer gown to keep.
*Nick picked me up at 7 p.m. on the dot the next evening and I couldn’t get over how handsome he actually was. You would think that a person who would pay someone to be their date would be creepy af, but he wasn’t at all. He was only 30 years old and had taken over a family business, so he had a lot of money. I ended up having a great time and in return, Nick paid me $300. In 4 hours, I made more than I could imagine making at any of the shitty jobs around campus.
That night, I went home and did a ton of research on the escort community. I created an address list and quickly grew my clients to over 5 men a week, each paying me a minimum of $250 [a week]. Every client was looking for something different, but I made it clear that I wasn’t into having sex with them. A lot of the time, these men were looking for someone to just spend time with because they had gotten out of nasty relationships, were currently in a bad relationship, or simply were lonely. It was 6 months into being an escort when I got a surprising phone call.
I hadn’t heard from Nick in what felt like forever. He asked me to be his date as a plus one to a wedding and I was more than happy to go. It was a destination wedding, so it required us to be alone together for an entire weekend. I had never gone anywhere with a client for more than a day, so I was nervous. But, I trusted Nick. The first night, we slept in separate hotel rooms; something we had agreed upon prior.
There was something about him that I adored. He had that movie-like charm and always knew the right thing to say. The next night, we had gone to dinner at a fancy restaurant a few blocks from our hotel. We talked and talked for hours. When we got back, we were going to go our separate ways when he grabbed my arm. I turned around and suddenly, we were aggressively making out in the hotel hallway. We took things into his hotel room and I broke my biggest rule; NEVER have sex with a client. But, Nick was more than that.
After the wedding, we started seeing more of each other and things got more personal. About 6 months later, we officially began dating. It has now been 2 years since I met Nick that first night and I am madly in love with him.
Nick is completely ok with me being an escort because he knows that I am very strict when it comes to sex and never do that with my clients. I have now been an escort for over 2 years and I average at about $2,000 a week. A lot of the time I am receiving cash gifts, but sometimes men will buy me things and I will sell them to make the cash. All of the money goes towards my loans, rent and living expenses.
Being an escort for the last two years has taught me that you really just never know where life will take you. Sometimes, we have to push ourselves out of our comfort zones and try new things. Being an escort has also taught me to have a new respect for people in this profession. There is a lot of misunderstanding when it comes to this type of work. Escorting was something I never imaged doing, but it has become my biggest source of income. I plan to stop escorting as soon as I start my practice as a lawyer.
