Confessions of a Sex Worker: The Client I Fell in Love With
If you’ve followed my blog for a while, you know a little about my past. I’ve worked on a phone sex line, dabbled in sugar baby arrangements, and tried to navigate the murky waters between money and intimacy. I’ve written about the highs and lows, the thrill, the awkwardness, and the occasional embarrassment of it all. But today, I want to tell a story that’s different. This is the story of a client I didn’t just enjoy working for—I fell in love with him. And somehow, he’s still with me now.

My Husband Secretly Likes Men—and He Doesn’t Know That I Know
I’ve always considered myself bisexual. I figured it out when I was young—SMG from Buffy the Vampire Slayer was my first female obsession—and I’ve always been extremely supportive of others in the LGBTQ+ community. In my ideal world, loving who you love wouldn’t be a “big deal.” We would just introduce everyone to our partners, and everyone would be accepted and happy. No awkward conversations, no labels, no fear of judgment.

Dating in a Romance Recession: How Gen Z Is Navigating Love on a Budget
Dating means something quite different for Gen Z than it did for previous generations. At a time when living alone is more expensive than ever, student debt is skyrocketing, and the economy is unpredictable, a generation of young people coming of age is rethinking the meaning of romance. 'Stepford Students' fees of lavish dinners, extravagant outings and gifts to impress are becoming less practical. Gen Z, instead, are accommodating themselves to financial constraints and craving substance. And that transition has created what some people call a “romance recession” — dating is now a means to demonstrate value, handle work-related stress and reenact “carefree” times, rather than an end in itself — where today’s singles are no longer drowning in dating expenses, and are focusing less on materialism and more on experiencing real connections, without the omni-present danger of financial commitment.

From Swipe to Social: How Boston Is Ditching Dating Apps for Real-Life Connections
Dating apps long promised to make dating easier, less painful and more fun. But in Boston, a cultural tide is turning. [business] More and more people are ditching endless scrolling and going back to the kind of connection where you reach out and touch someone. Rather than hooking up through algorithms, young singles are seeking the rush that comes from swiping left during a Upright Citizens Brigade performance, connecting with the constellation of a cute constellation of an Astrological Society of Los Angeles mutual at a farmer's market party. This trend is indicative of an increasing frustration with the shallowness of dating apps. In a historically-rich city full of intellectual life and unique areas, we're seeing that genuine, in-real-life "meeting" is again the method of choice.

A Blue Memory
It started with a flying chair. August 1st, 2021 — the kind of humid New York summer night that sticks to your skin like sweat and nostalgia. The kind of night when possibility hangs in the air, draped in disco lights and drowned beneath the bass of a now-shuttered gay club whose name I can’t quite say without feeling a pinch in my chest.
