a big question. an Ethical Dilemma?

. . . he offered to buy me a wig, an outfit, and heels.

Excellent!

If i would have intimate relations with him.

Oh.

I don't want to get all moral up in here, but there's a name for sex for compensation. You don't wanna do that

It's one thing if you have a relationship, even FWB, and your friend is helping you out. But this is clearly quid pro quo.

So I guess the real question is this - can you do this and still feel good about that choice in the morning?

Hi Stephy, ((Craigslist)) Be careful what you wish for!!

These 2 things just seem to get caught up together. I also have looked at CL and while lots of girls have pay for play fantasies it is never a good idea. You would do better to get to know your suitor at least a little bit then if the chemistry is there.....
Maybe he would help you financially with out strings attached?
I am glad you chose not to take the short road you will get where you want to be and be happier for it.

I have put many personal ads on CL, over four or five years, and only met three guys, after much emailing. They were all gentle, and it went ok, as i set my boundries, on what i would not do. There have been many, many replies to my ads, and almost all get deleted after i find, they don't respect my boundries. So, i guess i have met about 1% of them. Please do not get involved with this fellow, unless you email a long time, maybe meet at a public place for coffee, or something, and talk a lot. He may be just another CONTROLLER, manipulator, loser, sex addict. I say be very very cautious, on any site, and that includes women looking to use a cd, or guy. They come in all genders and sexes. I must practice what i preach, here! I would love to model and dance for an unmarried gentleman, but have him respect my moral boundries. Be cautious, and screen these guys with a fine tooth comb.

Maybe I'm a "prude", I'd rather think "prudent". I simply don't do "casual sex" with anyone, ever. Especially in this day and age with all the STDs, nasty perverts, and even a few serial killers out there. I'm a little older, and if I had it to do all over again, I'd have learned "people skills" in my youth rather than later in life. Appreciation, encouraging, and loving others is the key to social success. With these kinds of skills, everything else in your life will just fall in place.
