I recently had a conversation with a friend of mine and I came to the realization that I'd actually date several types of people that nobody else would ever touch. Either that, or they'd never be able to sustain the relationship. Anyway, I thought I'd go ahead and enumerate some of the random sects of society that people normally disqualify as being compatible with themselves:
(continued)- Escorts. For the record, I've never been an escort, have never been paid for sex, and I've never paid for sex. Got it? Good. Let's proceed. Many people hold the incorrect assumption that all escorts are doomed to being drug addicts, sleeping around in order to feed their habits. On the contrary, many escorts (as opposed to street hookers) do it simply because they have the body, they're able to do it, and they enjoy the living. Unlike other people, this is 99.9% cool with me. Why not the full 0.1% more? Because I'd worry about him getting raped and possibly killed. I'd probably have some nightmares because of that, but it's nothing different than some of the dreams and worries a cop's husband/wife would have. Other than that, go for it stud muffin.
I have no problem separating the physical/emotional realms of sex for someone whom I loved. This has never been a problem, for as long as I know that someone loves me, it wouldn't matter-- particularly for someone who fucks emotionlessly for a living. I see it as being no different from acting. Either way, I survive on mostly cuddling and shoulder nibbling anyway, so sex is naturally secondary to any of my relationships. Plus, as long as condoms are used and I don't have to worry about breaking out in herpes blisters, life's good for me. Perhaps the only thing I'd require is a shower after a John before getting in bed with me. Otherwise, that'd just be kind of nasty. :oP
Good escorts are very much like me: good at acting, good at dividing sex and emotion, tend to be cute, and they’re intelligent-- all of which are categories I'm looking for in people in general. I repeat, I've never been an escort, have never been paid for sex, and I've never paid for sex (and by "pay" I mean any conceivable compensation), but I don't doubt that I might actually be a good one if I was really strapped for cash. ;)
The exceptions to this bullet point are drug addicts and people who are seriously psychologically disturbed. Naturally, they'd be avoided at all costs. Clearly, I don't want to be killed in my sleep.
- Porn Stars. These also are people who others might fuck, but wouldn't consider being in a relationship with them. I'm the opposite. I'd totally be fine falling in love with a porn star, very much in the same way as an escort. The only bonus here is that I wouldn't have to worry about him getting raped, so long as he works on reputable jobs and sites.
- Straight/Pseudo-straight/Bisexual people. Granted, the overwhelming majority of these people are actually merely transitioning on their way to the world of "TeH Ghey," but many gay people wouldn't spend the time or effort necessary to listen, understand, or guide them into the world of TeH Ghey. Or, even if they truly are bi, they definitely need someone who actually might have a chance at believing them. Granted, I'd probably make intermittent jokes about "bi now, gay later" sort of things, but fuck it, let people be who they want to be.
- Club Carnies. Interestingly, a large portion of people would only want to fuck people who work in the bar and nightclub industry, rather than actually date them. I, on the other hand, tend to think that both bartenders and anyone associated with them either A: Have no idea what they're doing or are just getting by; or, B: Know exactly what they're doing, and are loving it or just getting by. Although the latter of the two possibilities is more favorable, it really wouldn't matter in either case if I actually found someone with whom I clicked.
That, and the fact that I intend on dominating the nightclub industry one day and will eventually be surrounded by them. In the long run, I might even end up falling for one. Who knows.
- Closeted Actors. Many people would rather be stabbed with a few hundred needles than go back in the closet for some potentially famous or already-famous actor. This is totally not a problem for me. Unlike most people, I completely understand the need for the utmost secrecy involved in maintaining one's career and anyone attracted to them.
I'd never brag about being with some hotshot actor, nor would I blab about it should we break up badly. After all, I'm not the vindictive type, unless someone truly fucks me over. Moreover, I'm not someone who gets star struck, simply because that's pointless and useless. I would, however, get heat-struck, as I would with any hot guy that might cross my path, but celebrity status does not and never will affect my attraction to someone. Actually, it tends to be quite the contrary, as many celebrities are more full of themselves than even I am. ;o)
I do lie, however, because I would get star-struck with certain types of people, but they're more brilliant biologists and physicists who are also personable and attractive. They make me wet, because they're so few and far between. :oP
Of course, ugly, fat, and dumb people are still out of the question. Yep, that's the part of me that's vain and requires attraction based on simplistic factors. Oh well. The bottom line is that I'd pretty much date quite a few people (just as long as I was physically and emotionally attracted to them), and some of the barriers that would normally interfere with the emotional component tend to be nonexistent for me. Pretty cool, eh? Yeah, whatever.
Cheers.
