Did i do the right thing?

[SIC]

hello all, Tonight i did something that i have never done before and i feel good about doing it but i am not sure it was the right thing to do.

Me and my friend went to pick up his car at like 11:30pm and when we went to the shop they had just ran out to get some food so we had to wait abit. I saw this girl standing out side she look really young i thought maybe 18-20. I knew she was a hooker because the area we were in wasnt the best. I saw her standing outside all cold and shaking. So i felt really bad for some reason that she was standing there so i said to my buddy lets talk to her because she is human to and she is young.

At first when i started to talk to her all she want was to have sex with me and i was like sorry but i am not interests. So i tryed to keep talking to her by asking her how old she was and she said 23 i dont think she was but w/e. So we kept talking to her and i was like you are a beautiful girl what are you doing out on the streets ( to tell you the truth there was nothing wrong with her at all you could tell she had just started) She was like where am i supposed to go and i said isnt there some family that you could goto? She said that she had no family. So i ask where she stays and she said somewhere by there.

At this point of talking to her i felt really bad because i knew that she could be so much more and this isnt what she should be doing. So i offered her a smoke and she started talking to me telling me that its not easy and i was just listen because i knew that what she wanted. I was like do you like this what you are doing and she said no. So i ask why are you doing this there is so much you could do your so young. So after a while of talking to her i offered to give her a job and its not much but its better then the streets and i also told her if she want to i could get her a aprt. for cheap for her to live in and get a start. After awhile she started to cry and at this point i felt really bad. So i said if i can do all this would you do it ? She was like yeah i would do it. I was like are you sure i dont want you to back out if i set this all up for you. I also told her i dont want to end up like the other hooker or die like alot do to and she said she didnt want that too.

I was straight with her cause she said she could make $500 a night on the street. I told her she would be making about 600 ever to weeks with this job and she would feel so much better make the money and not using her body. So i ask what number i could reach her at and she gave me a number i aint sure if it really or not but i really think it was cause she opened right up. I told her what she want to hear and i didnt make her feel like a object because she is human too.

I think i did the right thing here. What do you think? This was the first hooker i ever talk to and it feels like i made a difference. I may have saved a person. When i first saw her i thought i was some i knew but it wasnt but i felt good about what i did.

Thats the story

Watch out - she got into the "biz" for a reason...

Don't trust her with the cash register right away, in other words.

Oh - and watch out for her "pimp". He ain't gonna like you stealing away his "girls"...

 

[NawtylilGirl]

It would appear you have good intentions - but i agree - use caution when you offer her a job - make sure she can be trusted before giving her too much.

She is in that position because of helplessness - noone chooses to live on the street unless they feel they have no choice.

Noone wants to live a life of fear and worry over the tricks or the trade - std's or death or in between - i am certian she is in despiration to do what shes doing. Yes easy money - but hard getting it.

I think you did the right thing.
I knwo that it is human nature to not trust people because the status, job, race and meany other things but I think I every decent person with good intentions could do something like for a person thats crying out for help the world would be a better place. Maby if you got to know her better take her out for a coffee and wein her into a job once you know shes the real deal it will help get her a job that doesnt put your arse on line maby at a super market incourage her to study by correspondance in spare time or something it might help.

good on you for giving a person who had no shit show in life a chance though.

It's a bad situation, anyway you look at it. Your heart definitely seems to be in the right place.

If you can do it, give her the job. I'd advise you to treat her like any other employee - meaning that she keeps her private life to herself and she doesn't turn tricks out of your place of business. Once you get into fast money, it's hard to get out of it. Not everyone one the streets does drugs and/or has emotional problems, but a lot of them do. Make sure you know where the limits between you and her are. Stick with them and remember there are some problems that good intentions can't solve. You didn't put her on the street, she has to be respnsible for getting off the street and staying off.

Hope everything works out right.



Hugs,



Kat

Well i guess there is nothing that i can really do and it isnt my problem But she was So so so young. I know i am only 18 and i couldnt amagin a life like that. She told me she wasnt hook on anything but she did smoke and smoke weed. I guess its not really and i checked if she called and they said know so..... I try my best to help one out but its really all up to them.
Thx anyways

 

[NaughtyLil1]

Yes, I think it was a good thing. If she truly wants to change, she will call.

I have always been one that tries to help. I am forever digging around in my purse for money when asked. Supporting their habit, probably, but I like to believe that just maybe it will make a small difference in their life. I have been in situations myself when a kind word or gesture reminds me that life is worth it and people do actually care. I know it’s delusional on my part, and I really put my self at risk when I do it, but that’s just the way I am.

Give a man a fish feed him for a day teach a man to fish it will feed him for a life time.

It is good to help but do you believe supporting outher peoples habbits is helping?

I believe that people need to give other people employment options if they can help.

 

[NaughtyLil1]

Of course not, but I would really hate to decline on the chance that it might be a legitimate need of help.

Her getting the job would only be a bonus. You saw another human being and reached out to help them, with knowing little to nothing about them. That was an act of kindness, which is what she might have needed. And that's a good thing, maybe the best thing.

 

[asiasiren]

It is very commendable what you offered the young lady. I agree with the post above though that you have to be very careful. There is always more then you can see in these concerns.

I always get suspicious when they tell you what they make per day. $500.00 per day. Let’s say they only work 5 days. LOL That would be $2,500.00 per week or $130,000.00 per year. Maybe less if she takes a month off for a nice vacation. With that, I don’t think she would live somewhere by the shop you were visiting. That is if she was an independent. If there is a pimp involved, she would only bring in that money not keep it. Plus, if you did stand there and talk to her long enough to cover all you said you spoke of, the pimp would have shown up and sent you or her on your way. If a pimp is involved and they get word that you are trying to remove one in their stable, you are inviting trouble that you may not want. Be careful this way. If you call her, ask her if she has a pimp.

If she does decide to leave the lifestyle (that really isn’t very easy), you will need to be careful what she works with. Cash shouldn’t be one of the things in her hands very often and you really need to watch her. She is working now for cash for a reason and all cash will most likely look rather inviting to her.

Make sure your offer isn’t for personal reasons. Don’t assume that because you are her rescuer that you will get something in exchange. You will send her right back to the streets. You can never bring up what she did for a living again. It is not beneficial to her at all. Make sure your intentions are honorable.

Your shops seem to be open rather late in your area. Is that a norm? Are there 24-hour shops?

 

[SIC]

hey, No the shops arent open that late around here most of the times but they had his car for over a month and we were getting pissed. Now the job i offered her she wouldnt be working with cash. That would be far down the road. I dont want anything from her all i want is someone so young to realize that there is so much more out there and she doesnt have to do that.

Now i know that if she is making that much money it would be hard to get away from but really if she thought about all the risks in it. Like she doesnt know where she is going to end up once she getts in that car.

You know what i wouldnt have been to scared of a pimp coming at all. For one i didnt see her use and cell phone or nothing. Also she start to cry because she doesnt like what she has too do. Also the guy i was with is 6'8 and 300p and i have had ppl say wtf is your problem and when he walk up and say you got a problem they always bitch out.

All i am saying is that this girl is way to young for this and i felt really bad about all that she is going through and i wish i could help. Maybe i am just to nice? Or maybe something else but i guess i dont really know what i am trying to say her.
