For those of you who actually pay for sex regularly.

How did you feel about it before you did it and how you do feel after?

For various reasons I feel negative about it.

Morally wrong, like sex is some sacred thing that should only happen from genuine desire.

I feel like it’s not worth it and could do more harm then good - money 200$/ hr (can invest in myself or better things) , stds, mental health.

I do see the benefits - I get to have sex with someone who I would not have had the chance to if I wasn’t paying.

And right now, online dating is not working for me and approaching has gotten harder, not impossible but it’s definitely more of an effort with no guaranteed returns.

If all sex is transactional? Why can’t I let myself just pay for it.
