Ladies: What Motivated You To Become A Provider?

My friend told me about it. I enjoy it and also wanted more out of life.

The freedom is what appealed to me... Then the money. Being able to set my own schedule and make what some make in a week, in one session was/is amazing!

My same thoughts. I love the freedom, money and ability to travel-make & spend money. Sounds like a win-win to me

It's hella fun, money is a plus, doing what i love not what I'm told to do. I love being spontaneous i can go where i want when i want with who i want... The perfect occupation in my book!!

My motivations are well documented, so I won't waste anyone's time by posting a wall of text here. I'll just post a few songs - I believe the inimitable Ms. Florence Welch says it perfectly.

for me I love what I do and I love money I still work a job job lol

From the time I was two years old, my grandma would tell me, "You are sooo cute, someday YOU are gonna be Miss America!" (guess MA was a big deal back then). As a teen, my mother would look at me and shake her head and tell me I had "bedroom eyes". I spent my 20's wishing I could be paid to think and I dreamt of graduating from college. I always felt a pull to do the easy thing and work at a strip club but never had the courage or confidence. The "biz" was always around me, and I was determined not to "go there".

The men I dated always treated me like a paid companion. Eventually I learned that I wasn't taking advantage of anyone, and came to expect to be financially supported by a partner in exchange for our relationship. Then I got pregnant and found myself alone. I stopped taking care of myself and raised my child to have confidence in his ability to excel in school. Exactly the way I wished I had been raised. In the process, I lost my sexuality and thought it was gone forever. I worked under horrible conditions for chump change and was the butt of hatred by coworkers. My confidence sunk to an all time low. Then, one day I was sent to work for an elderly gentleman who wanted me bad and would always make passes. He said to me quite seriously one day, "There is something very sexual about you". I realized that I had a little more going for me than I had previously thought. I then learned that as soon as I let my boss see "the twins", doors opened for me that took me out of poverty and gave me a much better life. I started taking better care of myself and got my looks back. I still encountered hostility from my elderly boss's family who insisted I was taking advantage of him. After he died, I went back to working a regular job and was promptly blackballed by a jealous female boss who stripped me of any dignity I had left and I was jobless. In a panic, I placed an ad for massage services as I had always been a good massuse and I assumed I would see people who were coping with illness or had legitimate massage requests. I was shocked when a bunch of guys contacted me and I was floored by the response. I found books on Amazon and read everything I could on the subject and realized I had nothing to be ashamed of. Next April I celebrate 4 wonderful years of self employed empowerment and joy. My son graduated with honors and got a full scholarship to a great school. I am eager to expand my business now that he is leaving my house and I can't wait to be a better massuse and make more friends in the hobby. It is literally the most empowering and wonderful employment I have ever had how much I love supporting myself by my own two hands.
