Could you seriously date a former (and truly reformed) sex worker?

Anonymous

Years ago I briefly dated a former stripper. She might of done some “side work” but it was never confirmed. But I wouldn’t be surprised if she did.

After getting into long conversations with her she was actually much smarter than I expected. She was of course extremely beautiful. She was one of the top 3 most attractive women I had ever slept with in my life.

Ironically she came from a good family but she was the “problem child”. She wanted to date me seriously but she didn’t have a steady work nor any plans to go back to college (she dropped out). She also had problems with excessive marijuana use and experimenting with other harder drugs

I didn’t want a relationship but I did care for her. I was willing to just stay platonic friends and help her recover. I saw the potential if she reformed. But she didn’t accept that. I also inadvertently made a very stupid insulting comment after we had sex one time (and said wow you are so tight). I regretted saying that. I would of apologized if we talked again.

Anyway I followed her IG for a long time. She has now been sober from all drugs for 2 years. She also got several of her tattoos removed and she is going back to college. I don’t expect her to let me “accept” her idea of dating steadily at this point. But if she was were she was at now vs where she was 5 years ago I would of definitely considered it. But at the time I think she saw me as a “safety net nice guy”. Also I just bought my own house and she figured she might be get free rent if she moved in. But she was a mess at the time and was it really my job to reform her?

I do not like the idea of indefinite condemnation of people. But people need to want and seriously devote to changing. That takes conviction and time. It is possible.

For me to get serious with someone with a checkered past I need to know the following:

1) Why did they choose their job? If they give me some
bs answer like “oh I had to pay for college” I wouldn’t trust them. But if told me the truth i. e. “I like the rebellion, fast money and feeling bad when I was younger” i respect th

2) how long ago did she do this?

3) does she have skills and work ethic to make money legitimately?

4) does she really regret her past and want nothing of it? No excuses.
