Speaking as someone who was in the hobby and then retired for 5 years, and also someone who has known a lot of providers who've left the biz, I find the two most common reasons are:
1. New romantic interest makes them want to retire and use all their love on their new partner.
2. Burnout. Leading a double life can be really grueling. Sometimes a normal job and a normal life, even with the pay cut, is more fulfilling.
3. Having been outed.

Some ladies also only came on the scene because they wanted money for a car or money for plastic surgery, They met their goal and then checked out of the buisness. I don't see anything wrong with that.
I also know a lady who was outed and retired becasue she was so upset over the whole ordeal she didn't want it to be a part of her life anymore.
Everyone has their own reason for retiring... And Im glad that ladies do retire. You can't be in this buisness forever.... It does take its toll...
Some ladies have just moved on to bigger and better things, like a career or a family or got a real job.. or maybe they got tired of being apart of this strange world!!!
