Any Ex-Escorts Want to Share Stories

[Eagerindayton]

Any Ex-Escorts want to share stories about their experiences? I'm interested in knowing why you started and why you stopped. Was it worth it? And any other hot details would be cool.

This topic may not last long. I got infraction points for it once, and I think we're not allowed to discuss it.

But until then, here's my input.

I did it in the summer of 2014. Needed money because I couldn't get work, and I was trying to start in porn. Most of us porn guys will do this, and I had a free trial code for a popular listing site that no longer exists.

Had several clients but no repeats. Did it all summer and into September. Then I got a job at a church - and there's a funny story connected with it. I was advised by the pastor to keep a low profile on my sex life because it might damage their reputation. Plus I needed to not promote a sexually promiscuous lifestyle. (While he said this over the phone to me, I was in the middle of updating my advt on the website! 😂)  I kept the advt active into November in case the church didn't work out, but I had zero calls. Gave it up. 

Plus the guy I was seeing was getting serious, so it had to go. And I'm glad it's over. Unreliable and inconsistent, plus it wasn't fulfilling. Just a paycheque.

I escorted in the mid-late 1990s.  I started after I got out of grad school and couldn't get a job.

I was one of the first escorts on the Internet.  Well, sorta.  Y'know how the hookup apps have guys looking for "generous" men?  That was a thing back then too.  We hung out in the America Online chatrooms.

I was one of the first to leave it in favor of building my own web presence.  It took off bigger than I ever dreamt possible.  I did it full time for about five years.  Most of my clients were in the NJ/NYC area, but had clients that flew me around the country and occasionally took me on trips around the world.

I eventually wrote two books about be experiences.  Both are out of print, but their pages still exist on Amazon.

Suburbn Hustler; Stories of a Hi-Tech Callboy.  (That's me on the front cover)

The Male Escort's Handbook: Your Guide to Getting Rich the Hard Way.  (Not me on the front cover, but I'm on the back cover.)

I left escorting to get into porn and produce my own line of amateur videos. In retrospect it was a poor idea. Escorting was far easier and more profitable, but it wasn't intellectually challenging.  Running a porn business was better at that.  I have no real regrets, but in hindsight it wasn't ideal.

Bonus points if anyone remembers my "nom de porn" - Aaron Lawrence - from my escort / porn days.  I wasn't a big star by any means, but I did have a strong online presence for the day.
