I used to have a female friend who always have relationship with guys for money. She was poor and he parents did not particularly care about her so she said she had to "do something" to earn some money. She didn't tell me if s e x was involved in all th relationships but she did tell me sometimes when she had fun with some certain ones and I was like "I am not interested, just kinda heard her talking." I tried to stay away from her but she was sympathetic because at that point, she has no friends, felt like no family, no nothing... After a while, she told me she met her final boyfriend and she thinks she won't do that anymore because the current boyfriend can provides her everything... It is very not right and not ethical, I tried to say stuff to her but she wouldn't listen to me so I gave up being a pain in a neck to her. What do you guys think about this?

What I can say about this girl is currently she has lost her way and she needs you to be there for her eventhough we know that it is so painstaking that sometimes you would like to really just give her up, I would say please be there for she has no one else to turn too. You might be the only one left indeed and if she loses you, she might just sink all the way through.

i don't want to comment on people life, but it seems that the best way is not to interfere with her life as it is up to her and not us ^^

Well people have their own story to tell, she has her own life to make, she knows what is right and wrong. Maybe that's the only thing she knows to do, but I find it very shallow. There is something deep inside her why she rather do that just because she earns more, but usually it's until when. We know someone who her parents are well off but it's sort of a revenge for her family and we feel sorry for her. Cause she looks nice and a very nice girl. But there is a point where things change and we ask her, until when, you should finish your studies it,s a fall back. But this is the life she wants to have, and she knows what she wants, so we just let her decide on what she wants, We just hope and pray for her that someday someone will come along to love her for what she is. What you did was the right thing to do. Some people even we tell them to change it's just a passing word from there ears. So just let them be what they wanna be. Have a nice day to you!

I think it's not all that uncommon but I wouldn't do it!

Some people feel that they have to do things like this to gain money and sometimes people just do because secretly they enjoy it. I am not quite sure what your friends situation was but I would say it was the formal. I am glad that now she has decided to not do the things she has anymore and who knows she might marry this one. I think that you did all you could without crossing the line. Great discussion!

seems it's a common phenomenon nowdays,not only girls,they just have fun together and get what they want.it's just like a purchase.we cann't control nothing.but I think we should learn something through this and when we be parents,teach our children to be good.
