Studio 110 by Sophia 150333 Report post Posted February 15, 2013 Hello to my many friends here:) Although you know me, my lovely Maria Styles feels that she would like to have her profile opened here. She is sort of new to the industry, and is finding it difficult to find herself. She has been unfortunately exposed to the negative side of the industry in the past and is trying to find the all the positive side to this industry. Those negative experiences has seeped into her way of thinking:( She has seen a world of difference with working with me, but still needs a voice and support of her own. So I thought this could help her. I am encouraging her to open her own profile so that she can meet on line, the most amazing people! If it were not for the many ladies and men here, I too never would have known the since of pride and respect that one can experience in this community:) It is a lonely life at times to be in this trade, and with all the "gunk" clouding our own feeling on the subject it is hard to hear your own voice and feelings on the topic. I know for me at first it was the fact of living a double life that was the hardest to deal with. I was lucky enough to have met a few EXCEPTIONAL ladies in Ottawa that helped me threw that, and did "come out" to the ones that mattered in my life. Once I did that, I had so much freedom from my own conscience! For me, also it is the fact of doing good things for my life and future with the money I earn. 2 years ago I had no credit...now I do! 2 years ago I never paid taxes, therefore feeling like a non productive member to my comminity...now I do! 2 years ago could not hold a morgage with my bank...now I can! If you practice some self discipline and self control, making wise use of my cash has saved me from feeling useless, hopeless or like running in one spot! Anyone willing to witness their success, please do so in hopes to help new ladies like Maria...Just a few examples of when we --ucked up, and learned our lesson from it, then picked ourself up and becoming successful and strong business women because of it! I hope this thread will help any new SP out there find their way threw the maze of misconceptions of our trade:) 10 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cat 262460 Report post Posted February 15, 2013 I know how she feels Sophia. I remember the days of being afraid of the grid, living on it, being accountable for being an escort and it is the hardest hill to climb. Once you are at the top tho, there is no view like it! Welcome to our precious little corner of the world Maria! Send me a pm and we'll get to know each other... cat 4 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andee 220524 Report post Posted February 15, 2013 Sophia, I can relate to what Maria is going through and even though I've been around for awhile, it's still important to feel connected. I am also extending an invite for her to pm me once she gets her own profile. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Studio 110 by Sophia 150333 Report post Posted February 16, 2013 BIG THANKS!! Maria had read these responds last night, and she wants to send her wholehearted thanks to everyone! She is almost ready for her own profile here, and feels much better now:) It is sometimes hard to let go of the mixed up emotions that we can sometimes feel with this. But she honestly can say she feels the respect and love this community has to offer each of us. She is astonished at the "togetherness" she has seen on this site! So much for her to see and learn her, and I am happy she has chosen to take a closer look at our favorite board! :ThankYou: 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Winnipegcub 21293 Report post Posted February 19, 2013 Sophia, glad to see you helping out. This really can be an isolating life choice and in particular for the ladies. I also have no doubt that its easy to get exposed to the worst parts and feel it is all that way. Well from my standpoint it isn't all bad and in fact this little community of CERB is extremely understanding and supportive. In the end Maria may make other choices but I would encourage her to first experience the positive aspects of a place like CERB before determining its 'all bad'. Maria, you'll find a great deal of support from the ladies and if you ever want a guys view, Sophia can direct you to some that will happily discuss with you while having your best interests at heart. Myself included. Good Luck. XO Cub 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Meaghan McLeod 179664 Report post Posted February 19, 2013 Hey sweetie Maria. You are amongst some of the nicest people in this business. I have met some truly wonderful people here, and they have been there in good times and bad. This is not the easiest business to be in. It takes nerves of steel and a bundle of confidence in yourself. Dont ever let anyone knock you down. They are just trying to bring you down to their level, and you do not deserve to be there. Please feel free to PM me is you ever want to talk or have a question. You are amongst friends. hugs and positive vibrations. Meaghan 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CristyCurves 169032 Report post Posted February 19, 2013 My advice to Maria is your true and best friend is yourself and your intuition, trust in it as it will guide you to and from those you should and shouldn't interact with. Don't listen to gossip, be good to those who are good to you and ignore the negative. No matter where you go or what occupation you choose there will be those rooting for your success and those who will try and tear you down. You, are in good hands with Sophia, best of luck and have fun.:icon_biggrin: 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
