Gone too soon

In a weird coincidence, I was reading an article in the newspaper this morning about the increasing tendency of police and prosecutors to go after johns rather than prostitutes. According to the article, a study funded by the National Institutes of Health and conducted by the American Journal of Epidemiology indicated that the average life expectancy of a prostitute in the U.S. is . . . 34!
Was M* a prostitute? Well, she pleasured me orally (and swallowed) within an hour of meeting me, and her firing by the club's management wasn't for double-parking, if you catch my drift. I guess each of us PLs has to decide for himself (or herself) to what extent strippers are prostitutes.
I had just texted her about six weeks ago to inquire whether she was going to return to dancing. Over the next hour she blew up my phone with 17 (!) texts (I counted) asking me for money to help fund a photography business that she was trying to start. Since I know that a "loan" to a stripper is actually a gift, I declined. That was our last contact of any kind.
Her death, hitting so close to home, has given me much food for thought this evening.
Got something to say?

Sorry to hear that story. But in answer to your question, "Was M* a prostitute? Well, she pleasured me orally (and swallowed) within an hour of meeting me,"
prostitute
noun
1.
a person, typically a woman, who engages in sexual activity for payment.
Yes she was.
If that is true, I would say she obviously was a prostitute. I'm not passing judgement because I'm guilty of it - but it seems that's what most of us want - whether we admit it or not.
She has been in rehab and/or detox more than 20 times. She verbalized a desire to be clean but her actions speak volumes. Her BF is also an addict but she provides for him more than the other way around.
I've told her to not contact me until she's sober for 6 months and I've blocked her phone but she gets around it and gets me on the phone and then I lose any control.we're meeting Monday. And I'm not giving her one cent. I told her this and she says it'll be a freebie.
Sadly, I know she'll kill herself one day, either intentionally or not.

We live in a nation full of people living for the moment, not thinking about next week and definitely not years later. those who think years ahead are oddballs in this country. I'm afraid stories like this and worse will become everyday things if the people keep living for the moment not thinking about Tommorrow and keep voting for politicians who think it doesn't matter.
"Sorry to hear that. Makes me worry about my DS. Again."
What sorts of drugs has DS been doing? You talk about smoking marihuana with her, and I consider marihuana use unwise (non-brilliant, if you'll forgive me) but not deadly. I hope it is not cocaine, meth, or heroin. I had a friend in high school that came close to killing himself with cocaine and heroin. He did get into rehab and it has stuck for a decade but they are still horrible drugs.
