It ain't keeping her from spending his money and at this point that's all that she cares about.

That's what I told her but she's blindfolded by the cash

It sounds like the op knows the score and isn't interested. It is prostituting yourself for money. I'm sure you can find more constructive things to do in your spare time.
You are 100% right! I crossed my mind but this is definetely NOT for me. I just want a good, honest man with a job. Hopefully I'll find him this year. Otherwise I am taking in dating sabbatical in 2013

That's what makes me believe that she will never leave her SD, I highly doubt she'll drop him if the right guy for her needs to work a regular to make a living and plan/save money for months to go on a modest vacation.

She's still young so I guess she can enjoy the luxury of youth, which I hope she understands is not going to last forever. nIn a few years if they are still together I am almost certain that he will trade her for a "newer model."

After wasting her time, when shes ready to find a suitable guy, the complaint will be 'where are all the good men' and not accept any responsibility.

Exactly what type of men and women are you talking about here? It sounds to me like you're talking about two people who just want to have no strings attached sex. In that case, what makes you think you deserve more/better treatment than that? Seriously, the man wants sex...the woman wants sex...what more should happen? I know there are some women who are pretty delusional about the value of their vagina (and you sound like one of them) but I hate to be the one to break this to you, but you can't expect to get involved in a FWB type situation and expect to be treated like a girlfriend. It just doesn't work that way. You might be able to run that game on the socially inept dorks that are willing to be sugar daddies, but no real man is going to play that.

Its like being a prostitute but manipulating the sugar daddy to believe its more than that. Sometimes you have to call spade a spade, no matter how you try to spin it to make yourself feel better. There is only one truth, but very few are capable of seeking it. There are many reasons for this, but that isnt a debate for CD forums.

Why would I date janitors, trash collectors and busboys when I have men who are business owners, attorneys, bankers, etc who express interest in me? Why would I settle for men who do not open doors, pull out my chair or treat me like a queen, when there are many who will and do? Why would I have sex with a random guy who thinks he deserves a "fill-in-the-blank" job for buying me a cheap $1 beer when I could be in the company of a man who knows the fine art of wining, dining & romance?

Personally, I have never been (nor would I ever be) a FWB. I have never had a "sugar daddy". I have my own money and I have also had generous men in my life; men with whom I have had relationships and loved. So, I do not know what it is like to have sex with men soley for financial gain. I will say that in LA, many men actually seek out "sugar babies" for their arm candy. Yes, I have actually been approached but have never agreed to become anyone's "sugar baby." But with all of that being said, I think that women who decide to have a "sugar daddy" are way smarter than the girl who has sex for a $2 tequila shot.

Hey! I knew trash collectors who made 6-digits. It's a surprisingly well paid field at least here.

But the smell!!!!

Sorry, TOTALLY off topic, and not relevant to your point in the least.
