Sorry, I disagree here. They are humans like we are, and sometimes they have some feelings for us. It is hard, though. It's a very difficult transition from client to boyfriend, for both male and females. The money issue and the trust issue is always there until you communicate enough and trust each other enough to make the change. The guy wonders if she only loves him because he's paying, and she wonder if he only loves her so that he can stop paying. And then both of them have to agree that a relationship is what they want. All of these things are difficult.
I still say that giving another person your heart is worthwhile. I've done it enough in civie life and it has been broken and repaired enough times, and the great memories have remained. I have had no difficulty in doing it in Hobby World. I don't fall in love with everyone I see, and some I have only fallen a little bit in love with. Sometimes it crashes. Sometimes it withers. Sometimes it hurts. But sometimes it is glorious. Sometimes you wake up and she's the first thing on your mind, and the last thing you think about when you go to sleep, and she's in your thoughts all day long, and that makes you happy. Who would ever not want this? And then when you are together... there's nothing like being with the woman you love. Just being in the same room, looking in her eyes, sharing a kiss and a smile, breathing the same air. I have been so honoured a few times, that some of the most special women I Have ever met have allowed me to feel this about them, and in their ways, felt at least a little something for me, too.
