Search Results: attention getting compliments

Alright so I sell panties and things of that nature online because me and my boyfriend are going through a tough time with money. I don't get much from it and I have a couple clients but not a lot. When it comes to this, it involves talking to men and creating the fantasy that I'm single and they have a chance. I'm not flirting with them and saying I wanna have sex but I often do a 😊 face and call them hun (only because I dont call my boyfriend hun and he doesn't call me that anymore so it's no harm). I do this in a respectful way because despite I'm doing this, I respect myself, my body and my man. All in all, seeing how I create this single persona, the men flirt and give me a bunch of compliments. What also comes with this gig is that I have to send sexy pics when they buy stuff so that brings more compliments.

Getting to the point, I'm starting to like the attention. My boyfriend doesn't really compliment me like in the beginning of the relationship. Which I get it, he was trying to "woo" me but now he got comfortable. I don't need the compliments but I like to hear that he appreciates me and acknowledges that I'm still here and still want to be wanted. I like the feeling of being wanted and desired and this gig gives me that. Should I feel bad for liking the attention and almost looking forward to emails from people because I want the compliments (not catching feels, I just like it)? Either way I'm not gonna stop this because despite it's a small gig, it's helping us eat. It's putting me one step closer to my greater goal. Opinions?
