I have just been thinking lately about the key differences between escorting and dating websites. It's posed a couple questions for me...
There are clients that state they want to know as much as feasibly possible about an escort to ensure that she isn't pimped or trafficked, etc. which is fair enough. Other clients want to get to know the 'personal' side of an escort for whatever reason also, and as we've seen from recent events, this can often backfire. To spend quality time with an escort, you can pay anything from an average of 80 euroes for 30 mins to around an average of about 200 euroes.
For me, escorting is really about seeing the person of your dreams, or simply have some companionship, all without complication.
Dating websites are obviously very different. First of all, you can outline your expectations (e.g. one-night stand, swinging, marriage, not sure what you want, etc.) and actually get to know someone on a personal level, know their favourite colour, ask for an email address, MSN them, find out if they want angry sex or a picnic in the park. You can talk to as many people as possible and keep your options open and usually people on a dating website don't have any afflilation with anyone else there, so it reduces the chances of rumours and verbal diarrhea. Membership probably costs about 30 euroes a month which gives you acces to hundreds of profiles, all listed in your region.
What I'm really asking is this...
Do people see escorts because they are guaranteed sex?
If you're looking for something more or have general doubts about the legitimacy of escorts, why not go to a dating agency?
It would be interesting to know everyone's thoughts here.
