writes: K this is pretty serious. We've been together almost a year, we are both head over heels in love. I asked him to marry me he said yes. Hes a tattoo artist Im 25 hes 47. We share symptoms, we're twin flames. Recently we have been having some money issues and almost lost our flat so I turned to escorting. I saved our place and we took a trip together. I had been escorting for about 2 weeks, he found out right when we got back. We live together, he said he didnt want me to leave and wants to forget it ever happened and to continue on with our life plans together. Well its been a little over 24 hours, if I had a place to go I would leave. He deserves better. It hurts to look at him. I only had the best intentions and I knew 100% it would all come to a head, but not the way he found out. Now I want to cut the losses even though we love each other so much I cant bear to see him hurt, Im not doing it anymore but I can no longer provide $ for us the way I was. Should I stay or should I go!?!?

If you are this close and engaged and twin flames and all that, what is keeping you from telling him that you want the two of you to find ways to make more money? Not seeing why that is a problem, unless his love for you is based on the cash flow you bring in?
And why are you asking us what you should do? Isn't he your fiance, your big love, your twin flame, the guy you are head over heels in love with?? Is he blind? You made enough money in 2 weeks to pay the mortgage and for a trip? What did you say, that you'd won the lottery?
Lots of lying going on, maybe if you tell the truth for a bit you'll be in a better position to make better life decisions.

Have you considered looking for a job that doesn't make you feel like you are "un-datable" or not good enough ? Like a legit job?
Find a job, save up and when you can afford to move out (even if it is to rent a room) do so.

Hey I thought that the two of you were supposed to chip in on finances. What does he do on the financial end?? Love and sex are important but money problems can most often be the straw that breaks the camels back

It might get rid if the daily reminders, but the guilt will still be there. You need to come to terms with what you did and forgive yourself for it. You desparately needed money and you did what you had to do to get it. You didn't commit a crime, you didn't hurt anybody. Your boyfriend has already out it behind him, because he understands why you did it. You did it for the money, because you needed the money. Nothing more, nothing less.Until you can accept that and put it behind you, nothing is going to get rid of the guilt inside you, not even leaving him. So you might as well stay with this man you love so much, and who loves you so much, and let him help you get through it. Find a way to get through your money problems together. One or both of you needs to get a new job or a second job to make more money, or you need to find a cheaper place to live.

You don't have a place to go, so the only thing you could do is stay and save up enough money to rent somewhere else. He didn't tell you to leave because if it weren't for you and your escorting you would lose the flat together. If it was a girl who did escorting because she wants luxury items for herself, that's unacceptable but you did it for the two of you, so for me this is forgivable. He will keep on hurting until the money issues are straightened out. He might feel indebted to you but the nature of your love changed. He's not looking at you the same way. Do you make enough day time? I think what you could do now is find whatever job you can and that includes babysitting, pet sitting and tutoring. Treat him as a roommate and detach from his intense feelings. As much as he needs comfort that person would not be you since the pain originated from what you did.

It sounds like you need time to get your life in order. He apparently can't support the both of you; so it's probably only a matter of time before you're both homeless.
Take it a day at a time. Look for legitimate work, even if just being a cashier or a clerk in a convenience store. If you've got a criminal record, or take recreational drugs; you'll limit your options where legitimate employment is concerned. Hopefully you don't look like a road-map full of tattoos and piercings. That will also limit your employment options.
To each his own, when it comes to lifestyles. Always keep in mind how it will effect your daily survival and how you'll financially support yourself.
So you'll have to ask around through friends, to see if they might know where you can find a place to work; or give you a place sleep. I won't use the word "crash," that implies laziness and imposition.
When you've cut yourself off from family and never made any friends. You put yourself in dire situations without a support-system, and nowhere to turn. Let this be a lesson.
What advice can you be offered, when you've cut yourself off from anyone who could help you?
It's best you find a place for homeless women, than end up on the street. You should be more concerned about a roof over your head and food in your belly, than if you should stay with some broke-ass boyfriend.

Your post makes no sense. You do not say WHY you want to leave him. You do not say if he objected to you being and escort. You just said you had money worries, did some escorting to save your home and now you want to leave him?????
Don't make sense. If you cannot provide, why can't he get a job?? Is there something from preventing him from working?
Try to repost with a bit more detail!
