A paid companion describes a two-year relationship with a client in her 60s that started with lunches and gallery visits before becoming sexual. She explains how many older clients seek pure social connection first, and how attentive presence itself can be a form of intimacy.
There's a particular client in her 60s. I've seen her for about 2 years now, roughly every month. So I have a number of clients in their 60s, 70s, and even in their 80s who have reached out to me. I've got to, as I just said, understand who they are, what their situation is, and what it is they want from me. What can I provide? And for many of them, it is purely a social connection, at least to begin with. There's a particular client in her 60s. I've seen her for about 2 years now, roughly every month. So that's a lot of interaction. Connections. And it's only been in the last couple of months we've actually become physical in terms of actual sex, because that's a very sacred thing for her. And been building up these lovely connections between us. We'll go out for lunch, we'll hold hands, go to an art gallery and do these things that she— she's never been married, she never had children, but for her this is just so extraordinary. A man paying attention to her for the first time in her life, and for her that's worth paying for. So that's intimacy for her. So there are so many different ways of explaining expressing touch and physical connection and just that beautiful heart connection that we can have with people.
