    I have a friend who in pretty into onlyfans. He treats it as a relationship, has talks about his day with models, dumps life stuff… I dont think its healthy but its a substitute for a SO for him… So id say lonely people do…

      Thats it right there. Some guys go to strip clubs and treat it like a relationship. A woman once told me she worked in a club and when one of the regulars passed away, a bunch of them went to his funeral.

        There’s certainly worse legacies one could leave, than having spread some wealth around while presumably having been respectful enough to be missed.

      Exactly.

      It’s not that I’m indifferent to OF; the idea of getting in such a relationship actively creeps me out. And I’m already pretty messed up.

        a friend of mine has an OF page and while she is probably more genuine than most other models as she has a small select following, even she says she has to “perform and fake it” to a good degree. there is a reason you are paying and not just chatting for free.
