Interesting responses to this thread As a fssw, perhaps sharing my most recent experience might provide a new perspective for some.
My most recent relationship was with a gentleman I met as a private client. Our initial meeting was a 4 night interstate booking. There was a very clear attraction/feelings developed quickly. Think whirlwind romance!
After a couple of years of to-fro due to us living in different states, and the travel restrictions of Covid and border closures etc, as well as our work/families etc being in different states, he left me to return to his wife, whom he had secretly still been with for the duration of our relationship. Not separated.
During this relationship, I had taken large amounts of time off work to see my partner. Spent thousands of dollars on flights, gifts entertainment, restaurants, hotels etc all at my expense. We had been actively trying to conceive, planned to buy a home together; to the extent that I had given him my share in the 50% deposit for our home when he left, which I never received back.
Perhaps I was a stupid fool, but I truly believed I had met my soul mate. I was devasted beyond measure when I found out I had been used and lied to.
I never thought I would return to fssw, and yet here I am!
The point I would like to make here, is to be mindful that SW is, in fact a job. Being a fssw does not mean we aren’t real human
beings. It does not mean we don’t have feelings or that we don’t have fragile hearts that can be broken, just like you. We can and do experience pain just like everyone else, and we can and do experience pleasure too!
Life is full of ups and downs, it’s how we navigate them and grow from our experiences that ultimately makes us into who we are in the end.
On the other side of the coin, I have an industry friend who met her now husband as a client in 2002, and they have been happily married since 2003, and live in the UAE with their two sons.
We can and do meet partners everywhere. BUT the workplace counts for 50% of that share!
@ozwarlock67 that was/is a tough road brother. Relieved you have come through okay but really sad to read how the ladies life deteriorated. It is good for people to be able to share in this Talkinsex community without judgement.
I've learnt a lot about others and myself by being involved in community here. Sometimes we can go through life and feel some things must be unique to ourselves but by sharing we find it is often unique to many people. That can be healing and refreshing.
Wow! Thank you for sharing such a personal life experience. I'm so sorry your story involved heartache and deception. Love is such a crazy thing. I have dated a few fssw's over the years and was only deceived by one. What we do to make a living doesn't define us, it's who we are on the inside that does. Integrity, empathy, humility, humanity and ability are just some of the qualities that determine the legacy we leave. As much as you have been used and deceived I hope you will still give love a chance. As we hurtle through a brief existence it's still the holy grail. And next time it may be different............Interesting responses to this thread As a fssw, perhaps sharing my most recent experience might provide a new perspective for some.

Maybe smarter more than shy I will definitely put some time with you on my wish list, you look and sound gorgeous!Thank you for your kind and considerate response @mrys. Your reply actually made me tear up!
It’s so lovely and refreshing to be truly seen and acknowledged. You are so right in saying that our work does not define us…
We are multifaceted beings who endure many lives during our human experience. I too hope my heart isn’t completely hardened to the prospect of love in the future. I certainly will tread more carefully going forward.
