Men are shamed for using escorts, because its an option that doesn't involve being enslaved in front of an altar. That is all.

I see where you're going with this, but keep in mind that men do a lot of the shaming when it comes to escorts as well. I wouldn't say they do it as much as women, but certainly enough to negate any sort of conspiracy to keep all men married.

I wouldn't judge men for it, unless they were married or held a position with high moral/public authority. But in general it's just a huge turnoff for me, just like when men say they don't want a woman whose been with a lot of guys. Men who would use prostitutes just aren't ppl I'd prefer to go out with.

Women seem to think otherwise or you would have been snatched up by now.

Also, what qualifies as "successful" in your opinion?
Financially independent.

There are likely successful men as you state out there that have trouble and/or bad luck in dating.

Just because you're successful, doesn't mean you'll do well dating wise.
Just be confident, funny, attractive, and social and you should have no trouble attracting women.

1) Not necessarily true whatsoever. Also, keep in mind, I just recently turned 25.

2) I'm in the process of doing just that, been working on my online business these past few months, and I project to have financial freedom sometime in 2016.. One of my goals is to travel, and get a place out in California (ideally), or Florida.

3) I have been confident, but it hasn't led me to nowhere as of now. It seems at the moment, I'm able to attract women and get their numbers, but nothing more than that. They either end up ghosting, make excuse after excuse, etc. Not really much you can do there.

Try being married or in any long-term romantic relationship (spanning several years).

It is an 80/20 proposition - if you're lucky.

Okay, so there is hope for you since you're only 25 and are getting women's numbers (if you were an unattractive creeper, women wouldn't even talk to you). Hang in there, my friend, because it seems you are a valuable person after all.

I don't know any men who shame other men for using escorts. Ive never been with an escort or a prostitute, but couldn't care less if someone else, man or a woman, has. Its none of my business. I can see some white knights or other mangina types whining about it, but then again you said "men".

I think everything has been covered. So to speak.
