Journal jawtheshark's Journal: Hookers 130

Journal by jawtheshark
Have you ever gone to the hookers? Because, I'm seriously considering it. I know now that I'll never find free sex, so the only way to get some is to pay.

So what's best? A callgirl, or will a street hooker suffice? Pricing would be interesting too. I have absolutely no idea how much such entertainment would cost.

      • Jaw,

        Get yourself some stylish "out on the town" clothes, a nice pair of shoes that match the outfit, a manicure, and an expensive haircut.

        Go to a "meet market" type bar or any other place where there are a large number of women looking to meet men. If there really aren't such places in Lux go to the nearest big city that does have such places.

        Basicly look like you have money and care about your appearance. Walk into the place acting like you own it. Women should be throwing themselves at your feet.

          • It's very hard to codify the process of entering into a relationship(of any type, friendship, dating, marriage, etc.) I'm incapable of it, and this is probably why I'm such a loner. My mind works in terms of efficiencies. People tend to form drag and drop roles... Anyway, the friends I do have, I'm not sure how I acquired. Same thing with past girlfriends.

            No one gets sex for free, male or female. It always costs you a certain amount of time and/or money. Considering time is money, you're always payi
            • Yea, what you said.

              I find sex is pretty meaningless without some sort of relationship. Mind you this doesn't mean the relationship needs to be the sort of thing that leads to marrage, kids, and a house in the suburbs. But for me at least there needs to be something more than mutual physical attraction and sex.

              For the same reason I've never felt "working girls" were worth the bother.

              With relationships I find the journey itself is its own reward.

                Good advice.

                I think JtS needs a relationship, not sex. However, what he needs to realize is that before a female can love him, he needs to love himself. SOMEHOW, we have to find a way to convince him he's a great guy and a worthwhile human being. I would have thought that the fact that everyone cares enough to respond to his JEs and talk to him when he's depressed would be proof, but I guess not.

                  Look, TL... You as a pimp should understand one has to go for the least common denominator... Sex is that, paid sex even more.

                  Heck, no, you can't understand. Nobody with a healthy relationship or a decent sexlife can understand what I am in... As said many times before, I don't ask you to understand... At a certain point in life, you realise it is *over*, and need to pay for things that others get for free.

                  I have come at that point. You never will, an

                    Lest you forget... I haven't been in a relationship that lasted more than a few dates since Psycho, and I've never had sex.

                    What I'm saying is, you are not going to be happy going to a prostitute, and that isn't going to help you get a girl. You need to figure out who you are and what makes you happy (besides girls) and do that. When you can be happy without a girl, you will get one. Bec

                      What about the hot tub stories? They always imply you got some, perhaps not the full programme, but you certainly did get some "female contact". I do not even have that....

                      You need to figure out who you are and what makes you happy (besides girls) and do that.

                      I know who I am. I know what I am... I know what I like... Those questions do not need answers.

                      I did get female contact in the hot tub. But kissing was as far as the contact went most of the time, or maybe a back rub.

                      That tactic only works for pretty guys.
                      Dude, that's total crap. When I weighed 300 lbs, I still had girls all over me, because I acted like I was the most attractive guy in the world. In every picture I have f

                    • Then it perhaps only works on American girls. What do I know? Doesn't work here...
                    • So come over for a visit and I'll hook you up with some American girls. ;-)
                    • Can you do that for me?
                      Please please.
                    • Where do you live?
                    • Israel (didn't you know?)
                    • No, I didn't. Have you tried the line, "I'm Jewish... want to see my scar?" I wouldn't if I were you... that one doesn't even work for my friend Wesly, who is (obviously, from the name) Methodist.

                      But back to the question at hand... if you ever visit, I'm sure I could find someone to go out with you. How old are you? Do you have a pic in the /. photo contest? What do you look for in a woman?

                    • You really do have a short memory. I'm in this mess *because* of an American.

                      Apart from that: consider the 650Euro to 900Euro (East coast, respectively west coast) I would have to pay for a plane ticket, with no guarantee whatsoever. Spending that much money will get me a nice escort aroun here I guess.

                    • No, I remember...

                      My point is, you will never be happy with ANY woman, an escort, a Lux girl, or an American girl, until you are happy with yourself. Sex is not the answer.

                    • Sex might not be "the answer", but it is entertainment (the exact word I use in the original journal entry).

                      Try at least to understand my position. I have two choices: a) have a life without ever getting laid b) getting laid but having to pay for it.

                      Now what would you decide? (Again, *not* from *your* perspetive, try to be in my shoes just for this thought experiment) Think deeply, this is after all about one of our primal urges and is as important as getting food, sleep and drink.

                    • Life isn't always as easy as you make it look TL.
                      Life is never easy. I never said it was. My life sucks sometimes. And yes, I get lonely and want to go out and have sex with some chick. All I'm saying is, you have a third choice: c) Pull yourself out of this funk, find a nice girl that makes you happy, marry her, and THEN enjoy sex the way it is supposed to be. But the first step is to pull yourself out of this attitude. No girl is going to want you if you are feeling sorry for yourself. If you go
                    • Hmm..
                      Well it's sad because I'm not going to visit the US in the near future, but I wanted to know if I can have any options. :) I've already been in LA/LasVegas/SF and NYC.
                      But if you wondered... I'm 27, got no pic in the contest (yes I'm a paranoid) and.. I'm looking for a woman I can hug, draw with and discuss science fiction.. Do you know any? Maybe I can convince her to do Aliyah for me.
                    • Replied as a true Christian. I had anticipated this answer.... It only means you didn't do what I asked: put yourself in my place. (And thus leaving behind your Christian beliefs 5 minutes, God won't punish you to try to understand a heathen)

                      c) is not an option. I'm too old to start over again. I have elaborated this before, but at my age there is no way in hell I can go the "normal way of life" (Meaning nice wife and getting kids or whatever "normal" is supposed to be these days) It is unrealistic

                      How is that not putting myself in your place? Dude, I'm in a similar place to you all the time. I'm constantly fighting urges, but I know that I'm not truly after sex, it's LOVE I want. I'm not telling you not to go to a hooker because I'm Christian. I'm telling you not to go to a hooker because I don't think that's going to make you happy. But if you h

                    • Thanks! I think so, too. But if you were meaning that as an insult,

                      It wasn't an insult nor a compliment. I was just stating the fact that I had seen this comment coming from what I know about you. I also know that you don't shove your beliefs. Be glad you don't, because I'd take out the flamethrower at once.

                    • That tactic only works for pretty guys. It works for people that are not complete nerds. It only works for a certain type of guy, which I am not.

                      Honey, you are *so* wrong.

                      Ok, you know what I look like. I'm not stunning, but I'm damn cute, if I do say so myself. :)

                      Now, lemme tell ya about my boyfriend. He's bald (not by choice), kinda short, and pudgy. He's also the biggest dweeb I've met in my life. He studies statistics and Tensor Calculus for fun. I'm not kidding.

                      Well, I haven't met any in the 27 years I had on this planet.

                      It can take a really, really long time.

                      Uhm? Time is the only thing I do not have...

                      I know there's a culture difference here, but I would personally see any man relying on hookers or call girls as a HUGE RED FLAG

                      Oh, the culture difference isn't that big, not on this topic at least. The whole problem is that I dare to say this aloud. Have you seen the

                    • I have to say, I really don't understand this "I'm 27 years old, my life is over" mentality. If that were the case, my life *would* be over already. 27 is nothing man, you've got a got 60 years left. Besides, you're a guy, you get better with age!

                      Secondly, if you're getting the "Nice guy, but I'd never date him" from the girls you're trying to meet, you're looking at the wrong girls. I'm serious. Every girl has a different line, and people who are dateable for one are not for the other. My sister ju

                      You will soon. It is simple maths. Look at it this way: if I want the classical life of being daddy have a nice wife and some kids, my age is too high. Even *if* I would tomorrow find the "perfect match", nobody gets married right away. Usually there is some period that you get to know each other well enough. So add 5 years before marriage (27+5 = 33). Now, you won't start children right away. First secure the financial

                      Ok, now you sound like you're having the Rachel-crisis (Friends reference for those who need it) I'm sorry, but you're being a bit ridiculous in your timing. Over on this side of the pond there are a boat load of people (many of them are my friends) who are getting married in their mid 30's and starting families.

                      For example, I, at 28, am also planning on having a family.

If you want a house here, you need to go work with two and one salary will be completely used up to pay the mortgage. If anything goes wrong, you're screwed. So, because of the huge prices, you actually have to plan this way.

                      I don't think your situation is all that unheard of however, certainly not in the Boston area.

I just take the bus (meaning my 35000Euro car just sits in the garage all day), and it already takes an hour to get to the other side of twon (where I work). Comparing prices of Boston (which counts as a "big city") isn't really fair (and salaries are probably adapted). You should find a city with about a population on 80000 and they tell me what pric

There have been two major encounters with girls in my life, the first one was when I lost my virginity (age 17) [slashdot.org] and the second was Spirit00 (age 26). This averages one woman every nine years. Applying this to my current situation, I will be 35 by the next time.... I actually try to *learn* from history.

                      Hun, the statistics aren't valid 'cause your sample size is too small. This isn't learning from history, this is drawing a radical con

                      Actually, I think I'm most frustrated because I was ready to pack it in 2 years ago. Any dry spell of more than a year (mine was 4) is terrible for your psyche. But the fact that a family is something that you WANT, but you're refusing to go out and get it is the part that really gets to me.

Yes, it's a game, but it'll get you more than sex; eventually you will begin to believe what we all already know: jawtheshark is a pretty cool guy.

    Yes I do believe in the good of mankind, however naive I may sound. Yes I know that this world has problems. But if you don't start from the premise that dreams can come true if you work real hard, you deny yourself to see the real truth, which is that 4000 years o

There may be 3.5 billion of them, but that means that you should be able to meet every single one of them, and that of course, is out of the question. So, perhaps there is a girl form me that is right now herding some cows on the Serengeti, but that is something we will never know.

      Trial and error my ass... I'm sick of error...

          Hey, I never went to the prostitutes... I was just looking if some people had advice on the issue. Better start of with some knowlegde befor spoiling money for nothing.

  • Hi Jorg,

    I must confess to being a bit shocked when reading the title of the journal entry. This is what happens from being away from Slashdot journalling during summer... sigh.

    Really sorry to finally find out about your break-up ... and that you are still depressed by it after four months. It must have been quite a deep relationship.

    As to paying for sex.. personally I have nothing against it, but you might want to consider what future girlfriends will think about it (and you will get future dates, I'm su
    • I must confess to being a bit shocked when reading the title of the journal entry.

      I'm good at shocking. Shocking is my second name ;-)

      It must have been quite a deep relationship.

      Apparently not since it's over... It was just my first girlfriend and at my age it was something like a last chance.

      consider what future girlfriends will think about it

      That does not concern me anymore. There won't be future girlfriends. I didn't manage to find one in 27 years, so I won't find one the next 27.

    i think Nerve [nerve.com] had something about hookerss a few years back, links to forums and other stuff,

    But anyway I thhink women are attracted by slef confidence. As soon as you lose interest in finding a woman, they come at you- who knows why?

    You were with that one chick for a while- did you notice indreased interest from women during that time period? Try to replicate whatever caused that.
    • I thhink women are attracted by slef confidence

      Drunk yourself? According to the mistakes you are...

      I have nothing to offer except money. So hookers are the only way.

      • Well, I know you're a guy, so you have at least one other thing to offer. Some women like sex, now if only life was more like a porno.

        I guess what I'm saying is, the more desperate you are to find a woman, the less likely it is to happen. But the moment I think "screw this, I'd rather be alone" is the moment I find a girl.

        I can't say that I've ever gone to a prostitute, not that I disapprove or anything just never thought about it. But if you choose to go that route be careful, don't go cheap! VDs su
  • I have to agree with what Ces and Some Woman have told you - you need to talk to someone about your feelings, and get some help turning all that negative stuff into something positive.

    Don't know if this will help or not, but consider this. You've loved and lost. I've never loved at all. Yep, seriously, at age 35 I've not done the horizontal slamdance yet. And, in all honesty, I don't feel that I've missed out terribly.

      And be goddanmed glad you haven't. Once, just once is enough to be hooked. You just want more and more. So imagine just having had it once... It is hell on earth.

      (check my entry in the Photo Contest for proof of that)

      Still don't know what you look like... Any guess is a good guess.

      I might just have to catch the Eurostar out there to sort you out in person... :-)

      You can get a mighty expensive hooker for that price ;-)

        Jorg, lighten up! You're making out that you having loved and lost = the End of the World. It isn't. My sister can attest to that, having been through several relationships that started out well but ended in disaster. But she's now a much stronger and more independent person (well, almost - she still needs the occasional reassurance over the phon
  • From a purely American POV, hookers are BAD, BAD, BAD. You don't a damn thing about them, nor anything about how, ummm... healthy they are. Of course, the same could be said about picking up a girl in a bar.

    Seriously, if you're going to this, then find someone, whom you trust, who has taken this route and get a reference.

    Not sure your motivation, but please be smart and be safe.
    • From a purely American POV

      Never forget I am not American, and I will never act as one. That is what makes me jawtheshark on slashdot... Prostitutes are not bad, they provide a service just as the lady that does your laundry or cleans your house. It's a service... Some people need that service, some don't. You pay for service, that is how it works.

      and be safe.

      Of course... I'm not crazy...

      • Never forget I am not American

        Jaw, I know that. I was qualifying my statement. Not judging you. Besides, it was my first (i.e. gut) reaction.

        I don't judge people... well at least non-Christians. ;)

        You need not my blessing, nor my morals to live your life. I only ask that you be safe... since I like having you around in the virtual /. world and would hate to lose your voice.

        Ok?

        Ok. ;)
        • I like having you around in the virtual /. world and would hate to lose your voice.

            I think a lot of people in America would take your post and think Holy Shiate this guy needs help... we need to help him. And that is the basis for a lot of the problems we face here: no one is allowed to feel differently than the next guy.

            • No David Gilmoure...Sid got kicked out pretty early from the band.

              America isn't as open on sex as Europe. I don't want help... nobody can help. As a European I need to cope with it myself. We do not work that way... I am different, I am a strange guy, even at work the know I do not act as "the guy next door".

              I wouldn't care where I could get nice girls... Relationships won't work for me anymore. Paying is the only thing that is left.

              • No, American isn't terribly open about sex. That does at some level affect the answers here.

                As for "needing to copy with it myself" I don't think that's a requirement of European life. People talk to each other. They express frustrations and concerns, fears and hopes. They share secrets and jokes. For many this is therapy. It comes at the small cost of being a therapist for the friends who are therapists for you.

                Those of us who do not have a pool of friends to talk with don't have that resource. We have t

            That's a very intense statement. There is a deep darkness that envelopes you. But that darkness is not natural. People normally have ups and downs. People become depressed. But there are limits to normal depression. With all the force I can muster in this emotionless medium, I urge you to speak to someone about this.

              It is my favourite quote from that movie, because it is so true... We are just shadows and dust... and in slashdots case, we are just shadows... Not even dust.

            • Oh, and besides... I'm not depressed. You may think that, but that is not true. I have just drawn conclusions about how life is right now, and accepted how the future will be.

              That is really different. I came to conclusions and made decisions for life.

At work, I ended up with an older 17" Gateway Trinitron, which, despite it's quality, still has lightly perceptible flicker because of the fluorescent lights. Of course, the Apple Cinema Display HD [apple.com] is the screen I want.
