Ladies here, I'm curious....
Although I realize those of you who visit the forum here are likely presently active in the industry, I've always wondered what it was like for you to quit once and for good.
There may be many reasons for you to do so (life moving on, love, burn-out or boredom, move), but I'm wondering how you deal with the following:
- less money or having to earn it at common citizen's salary rates?
- less partners or a single partner. Mind you, you may not like all or even most of your partner in the industry, but can you or do you see yourself capable of being the woman of a single man for your life?
- Regular 9-5 work hours
- less sex maybe? Good or bad? Boredom?
- the aftermath of having done this as a work for a period of your life? Was cool? Guilt? Been there done that?
Is it a difficult transition or to the contrary a welcome relief? Was it a difficult decision to make? Any other aspcects I'm missing?
