Life after being a female exotic dancer....

Hi everyone, I was an exotic dancer for 13 years. I quit dancing 6 years ago. Working in the adult entertainment industry for that long really takes it's toll on a person. Is there anyone out there who has a difficult time trusting men or maybe problems w/ intimacy because of their previous (or even current) occupation?

No I haven't yet. Actually the truth is that you are the first person I have meet. I know it must have been difficult trusting guys because of your pervious work. But I believe that there are still some man out there who respects women despite of whatever there past may be. I salute you for being so honest and brave enough to share that to evryone. You really are a strong person and I can feel that you are a beautiful person inside and out.

Thank you very much! Actually I did find a good man so I married him ... :-) My testimony is not hard to share really... God got me out of that life style so I could help others get out.

Things happen..but I still believe that if someone really loves you, the past life doesn't matters. I am not a prejudice, each one of us has the right to love and to be loved. I hope you can find true love and the right soul mate for you.

Hey, Well yes iam sure its a tough job. Here in my country we have dance bars which is illegal and the girls are caught by the cops sometimes and then its really a sad story. I feel pity for them as they r doing it for surviving and not for fun. And yes i have heard cases that where they have quit their job and moved on but still had trouble with their previous customers. I guess its a very diffcult question to answer. I hope u find peace in your life and be able to forget the mistakes u made earliar in yr life. Re-settling in a new place and trying to start a new life may be is a good idea. Iam sure u will find good people whom u can trust and vice versa. Cheers, Tutul
