Those who work in our intimacy industry supply more than just sexy time. Sometimes it's just about connecting with another human. A simple touch of another can make you feel alive. And having a person listen to you as you cry, laugh, story tell or just sit together comfortably in silence can impact the entire course of your life. Sex workers often acts as therapists, who give people a moment of piece and contentment... and even with all of the clothes on.
Redditor u/medicalstudent18 wanted to know from those who work in the sexual world about certain client requests by asking.... Sex workers of Reddit, what was the saddest request you have ever received?
Beautiful Words...
This was a long time ago, but for a hour of his 90 min session he just sat their and talked about his ex wife who hated him. He also asked me if he should stop finically supporting his step son because he wouldn't stop smoking weed in his house. Then read me some poetry he wrote, about his ex wife. I never saw him again but he emailed me more of his poetry afterwards. wizardmuffin383
For safety reasons.
One client came in, he was married, all he wanted was for me to put on a wig (That matched his wife's hair) Wear a certain shade of Louboutin lipstick (That he brought me...and his wife wore.) And Dior perfume (That he also brought, and his wife also wore.)
And then have me compliment him while he told me about his day.
He was a client up until his divorce and remarriage.
Edit: To answer a few PMs. No, it wasn't his wife's lipstick. It was a new lipstick in her brand and shade. And no I didn't pay for it myself... as it's 120 dollar lipstick. I have my own cosmetics. But for special requests, they had to bring me Unopened cosmetics. For safety reasons.
The same applies for the perfume. I go fragrance-free unless given a requested fragrance. Same rules with the perfume for safety reasons it has to be an unopened package. They can take the products back after a session, but the next session they would have to bring me a new unopened package, so most let keep them for a future session. Faedan
Be Nice.
Probably not the saddest, but it's the most recent one. Guy gave me $300 every two weeks just to text him and "treat him nicely". No physical contact, no nudes or sexting. Literally just wanted good morning and good night texts, and someone to encourage him as far as work and his hobbies went. HeCallsMeRoo
$250!!
I once had someone who gave me $250 a week to just talk and smoke with him. No sex at all. He was very lonely because his wife passed and just wanted female company. One day he broke down during one of our hangouts saying how much he wished his wife was here. I just let him cry while I held him. m033118b
In my younger days.....
In my younger days, I worked at a male review. I had this woman of about 40 something who would come in fairly regularly. She asked me to a dinner date, I obliged her request, as she was quite attractive. About 5 minutes in, she started bawling, and when I asked what's the matter, she told me I was an exact replica of her son whom she lost to cancer. She proceeded to show me pictures, and tbh the resemblance was uncanny. We chatted over the years since, but in 2018 she passed of cancer. R I.P. TheeRealJesseJames
The First?
He told me his Dad had cancer, and he took out a photo album and we looked at pictures of his Dad's youth. Tuyangtusenpo
For Everyone....
Not one in particular but I have had a few clients who were severely disabled. Like in the way that they were paralyzed and required mechanical ventilation. It makes me super frustrated and sad for these gents because they still need a physical touch that isn't a medical necessity. They still have desires and wants. But they are literally trapped because they can't go anywhere. smokeandshadows
Online.....
This is a different kind of interaction of similar tone. And i had a phone sex client. It became clear after a few calls that I think his only interactions were online and involved giving money for attention back. I don't know if he had the means to keep this up or not. But he got very weird around the fifth call. Upset I wasn't online as much to talk. Wanted to talk all throughout the day and when he couldn't afford it would try to haggle me lower in price.
I told him that this amount isn't healthy for the mind and he should seek therapy. I was diagnosed with PTSD and had wonderful therapy that changed my life around. He got upset at me and blocked me. Two days later. I wake up to text messages asking me to take him back. He sent photos of the front and back of all of his credit cards to "prove he was serious". I felt so bad for him. Tedbastion
The Regular.
Not me, but a story told to me from a girl I know who used to be a sex worker.
She had a regular client who'd come in every week, and just wanted to talk, be held or innocent things like that. Never wanted anything sexual. According to her this wasn't that unusual, as some guys felt guilty about going to a brothel or just wanted fetishes satisfied.
But she said this dude was different. From what she pieced together he had an extremely unhappy home life. It seemed the only happiness he had in life was the hour he spent with this girl.
She said one time he booked an appointment but never showed up, and they never heard from him again. goatwomble
Say Hi.
I'm a guy who shoots porn, so technically a sex worker. I've got some requests of PH users who sent me some messages. One guy just wanted me to shoot a girl who would say "Hi, John (I changed the name), I love you John, I miss you John" and so on. I guess this guy has nobody who talks to him. Mars_Pornhub
Do you have something to confess to George? Text "Secrets" or "" to +1 (310) 299-9390 to talk him about it.
Knowing how to comfort someone is a skill that not everybody has. In fact, some of us outright suck at it.
It doesn't make you a bad person - maybe you're awkward under pressure, or uncomfortable, or didn't have healthy models of empathy. Maybe you just panic and don't know what to do.

Manipulation is designed to be stealthy. We hardly recognize it when it's happening to us because our abuser has forced it to appear under wraps.
But when we recognize it for what it really is, we really feel like we've been smacked across the face. There is no other descriptor for it. Usually we've trusted and loved those that manipulated us.
A Platitude Of Pleasing
<p>You never know where the next blowout is coming from. Any time something needs to be addressed, you might try to bring it up once, gently, if you're feeling brave. If you meet the slightest bit of resistance, or you don't feel like that fight in the first place, you just go "okay dear" instead. You find that you'll put the argument off until next time, and hope that whatever you thought to bring up won't have any consequences, because you'll be hearing about those, too. It sucks, and I'm glad you can speak about it in the past tense.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/TheGreatestAuk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">TheGreatestAuk</a></p>Wrong Or Right Or Just Not Agreeing?
<p>When I started realizing that I was feeling like I was constantly walking on eggshells. I never knew which version of my friend I'd get when we saw each other, or when we hung out. I also just completely stopped disagreeing with them because I didn't want to hear them tell me how wrong I was if we didn't share the same viewpoint.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/WhatArcherWhat/" target="_blank">WhatArcherWhat</a></p>Being Used
<p>My best friend suddenly distanced herself from me. But every now and then she'd call and ask if I wanted to do something, and I was encouraged because I thought it meant that things were still good between us. It took me an embarrassingly long time to realize that she only called when she wanted to do something that required a ride, since she didn't have a car. The only thing I can say in my defense is that I don't use people that way so I didn't recognize user behavior. You can bet I do now.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/Goldeverywhere/" target="_blank">Goldeverywhere</a></p>Hiding The Receipts
<p>I was living with my former best friend and his gf at the time. When I asked for grocery receipts (I trusted him & his ex to buy groceries bc I didn't have a car at the time + our work schedules were different so I couldn't go with them) and they wouldn't provide any. The only reason I became suspicious was bc they started asking for a ridiculous amount of money for my half and the actual amount of food wasn't adding up. Up until that point they never asked for a crazy amount and I was content with our groceries, but I noticed they became extremely greedy. When I then asked to see a banking statement, they wouldn't even provide me with that either.</p><p>At that point I just realized they were finessing me out of extra money and I started buying my own food. I just bit my tongue bc we only had like 2 months left on the lease. They tried to gaslight me and make me seem like the bad guy any chance they had (almost the entire time I lived with them actually). Eventually, I grew apart from him once I moved away and the only reason he hit me back up was bc she cheated on him so he probably didn't have anyone else to turn to (go figure). We don't talk anymore.</p><p><a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/0MG1MW3T/" target="_blank">0MG1MW3T</a></p>Ah Yes, Good Old DARVO
<p>My mother and I have always had a rocky relationship.

Why don't you just go live with someone you don't hate?" Keep in mind this happens over small things such as "mom, I'd appreciate it if you'd knock before coming into my room.

<p>8 years into the relationship. As we're sitting down he explains to me that the "first couple years" we were together he only saw me as a place to crash and free rides, but he loved me NOW, and even though I accomplished all the goals HE set for ME so we could get married he said "I never really thought you could do it". Oh and also you got fat, but don't worry we can fix it! It was like a magic veil lifted and I finally saw who he really was.

Then would play on his computer all day and smoke while I worked. </p><p>Found out that a lot of his horrible childhood stories were made up and that he never made it through basic training in the military.

Can you imagine cleaning the debris left by murder, suicide and violence? I have a really great friend who used to do crime scene clean-up for a living. The pay is incredible; it starts at $55 an hour. But there is a much higher cost in mental well being. Death affects you in ways you don't always feel immediately. My friend has stories of nightmares, depression and pain after leaving scenes of horror. Why make all that money just to spend it on therapy? It takes a certain type of person.

Redditor u/MemegodDave wanted to hear from the people who have the stomach to come in after crime and tragedyto try to bring back some form of normalcy to the location by asking... People who make their living out of cleaning murder scenes, accidents and the like, what is the worst thing you have experienced in your career?
