Should a Woman Hire a Male Escort or go Friends With Benefits?

Why should a woman hire a male escort when she can have casual friends with benefits (FWB) relationships with men for free off Tinder and online swingers sites like Red Hot Pie or Adult Match Maker?

Everyone’s circumstances are different, that’s for sure, and people are free to engage in whatever relationship types works best for them. However, the friends with benefits arrangement typically follows this predictable path: a woman gets into a friends with benefits arrangement with a man, over time the relationship begins to appear like it might be growing into something more serious (or she has expectations of such), and then it all crashes with the woman getting upset and hurt.

It is not always as black and white as this, but you can be sure there are many who have heard this same story at least a few times.

On the surface some women see the friends with benefits arrangement as the perfect platform to start a possible relationship: you can have non-committal and casual fun with someone you know you get along well with socially, and you get to see if there is any super spark between you two that could continue the relationship into the long term. The benefit being it does not hamper or hinder your personal life in a way you feel you are burdened with a serious “relationship”, and you are also still free to play the field, have fun, and keep your options open.

With the emphasis being firmly on the "friends" facet of the arrangement, you are often contemplating the friends with benefits relationship could be the doorway to true love…one day…maybe…if you want it to be. After all, you get along so well and have such a great connection with this steady, great, fun and easy going companion.

On the other side of the fence, men usually place greater emphasis on the "benefits" side of the arrangement. It is the ultimate prize for a man to not only have a casual friendship with a woman he is attracted to but also one where he can act on the element of desire that is an often hidden part of his feelings. He may never get to act upon it with any other of his “normal” female friends, but with a friends with benefits relationship he can.

When a male / female friendship turns into friends with benefits, that unleashed desire is like an addictive drug hit for man (it really is!), and it grows to be the main ingredient of the relationship. The friendship portion is still there in the background, but the benefits part is what excites him and keeps him coming back.

And please don’t take that the wrong way, the friends with benefits relationship looks like a brilliant deal to men as well. Men can play out our physical sexual desires with a partner we already have a rapport with socially, minus the added relationship obligations that characteristically come with that: communicating, sharing feelings, placing the needs of another before our own, negotiating plans for date nights and outings, being exclusive, meeting parents, etc.

For many men, this type of arrangement is often not about the friendship journey but the final destination: uncomplicated and easy sex. That is certainly not to say men don't still care about the female friendship, but with many men it means we take the definition of friendship as cut and dry as a dictionary. Men often work to acquire the benefits part, with a friend they like, but it is often never anything more than that.

Now because friends with benefits arrangements rarely work out in the long run, your best option is to avoid one if you would prefer not to experience the emotional fallout and heartache. But that brings us back to the leading question: When casual sex and casual relationships are freely available in this age of Tinder and Red Hot Pie, why should a woman pay money for the same from a male escort?

Simply because a male escort has been booked to provide a woman with an exclusive and unique service.

There are no ulterior motives and the focus is very much on you and making you happy, with the objective being on providing you with the perfect experience. A good male escort will ensure there are no awkward moments. A good male escort will ensure the rules are set and never deviated from. And the rules are always no strings attached and no emotional baggage.

When booking a male escort you know exactly what the relationship is from the beginning and there is never any doubt as to where it will end up. Thus, by booking a male escort you can avoid pitfalls such as emotional heartbreak, being unfulfilled, and relationship breakdown that checker casual flings and friends with benefits arrangements. Booking a male escort should be seen as sharing a beautiful moment of fun and escapism that is perfect for as long as it lasts.

At the end of the day, if you still prefer a friends with benefits arrangement, then all good for you. Just be sure you know you can live without the man (and the friendship) should things not work out, and don't go in expecting more than the definition of the relationship implies. In addition to losing a friend, you may just end up getting your heart broken.

Is that worth the benefits?
