It took awhile, but I finally finished reading this thread and I must say flat out you have a great point, but you are also missing the point. Let me explain. Being raised up in the inner-city with the pimps and the ho*s I learned much.
1. It takes alot of mental toughness to be in this life.
2. There must be no compasion for others since you have a goal and that goal is to use what you have to get what you want.
3. You must do it quickly since your mind and body never hold up as long as you would like.
4. There can be satifaction in any line of work (it is not the job you do but how well you do it- thanks grandma for that one)
My last trip while sitting in the SL a CRT member told me he was in love with a "working girl" like he was embarrashed by this. I thought about a street lesson I once learned. If you were married, broke and had a family with mouths to feed. How would you feel if your lady came to you and said "before we met I was a working girl and I love you and all you have done, but I have a guess coming over so I can make are bills this month. I need you to take the K*ds to a movie here is the money. Please do this for us and our family". How would you react? I looked that CRT member directly in the eye and said that I would never look down on your happinest no matter how you achieved it and I have the most respect for you and your lady.
So in closing there are many sides to this, but happinest is ones own goal and if a CRT member is acheving his happiness by calling or falling for a novia. You have my respect and you always will
By the way nothing in life is free. Love is the most costly thing we do. (thanks pretty Tony for that)
