Sometimes callers can be a bit emotionally fragile. You don’t normally think of them that way, but some are and you feel bad for them. When I think of some of the guys that have called and I’ve made them cry, I do feel bad for them. Ones like you making them cry, but you still feel sad you did that to someone. Other times though you aren’t even trying to make them cry and they do.
One asked me to tell him I loved him, and I did. It’s not a lot to ask, I know some girls will not do it, but I don’t mind. So I tell him…..and Then he bursts into tears. I felt a bit uncomfortable this was the reaction I was getting but tried to comfort him and tell him it was ok. Some are literally paying a stranger to tell them they love them and then crying when they hear it. How can you not feel bad that they are so deprived this is the result? It’s a sad world that some are so unloved and lonely that things have come to this, but some of these callers are not just calling us for their sexual needs, but their unmet emotional needs as well. I do my best, but I’m not a real substitute for a wife or a girlfriend.
I’m glad to be there in their moment of need, that they chose me to help them in whatever capacity I can. Some callers do absolutely like to hear I love you, and some like to say it,a and it does feel good to hear it, not a doubt, even though it’s from a stranger on the phone we will likely never even see a pic of, it feels real for that moment in time. We serve much more than merely sexual needs for some of our callers, from confessors to substitute girlfriends.
