Caring deeply for someone, and building a friendship with them, even to the point you love them, as a good friend, is different than loving them to the point where you want to be married, and spend forever with them. I have had feelings of love as a good friend with three escorts. Not spending the rest of my life in married bliss with them, but a good friendship. We would meet for a coffee, have dinner, take long walks or go camping and fishing together. Used to have dinner with one at her house a couple of times a month, she enjoyed cooking, and I enjoy eating. We would watch a movie on her couch, or go for a long walk together after. One really enjoyed riding on the back of my motorcycle, we had many great rides, some just an afternoon, others lasted a week or more. A few years ago I had seen one in Vancouver four times in about two months. After the fourth time, she asked me if I would allow her to buy me dinner. It was only 4 p.m. and we are not in our 80's so it was too early to eat dinner, so we enjoyed a 3 hour walk, about 5 minutes into our walk, she took my hand and held it almost the entire time. We then had a relaxing 2 hour dinner, and another walk, where she kissed me passionately, and asked me to spend the night at her place. We hung out a lot for about 7 or 8 months, and then I moved away from the Vancouver area, we only see each other 6 or so times a year now, she actually came to town to see me in late March, and spent a few days. She has left the industry a while ago, and asked me about the possibility of a job. We had a very long discussion about expectations, and that she would if hired, be shown no favoritism. The resume she gave me was worded in an interesting way, and made me laugh. Well in her 6 weeks of employment, I have been truly impressed, and actually not awkward at all.
