Desperate times called for desperate measures. And right now Sarah was feeling especially desperate. She’d taken out a heap of student loans back in the US to afford going to university, and then she’d made the decision to take a personal loan and leap straight into moving to South Korea once she’d finished up there. Neither of these things came especially cheap, and while she’d known it would be difficult to afford, she hadn’t imagined it would be quite this bad. But her debts were piling up. She was two months behind on rent and her, though her landlord was a kind man, he was (for obvious reasons) starting to get pushy about when she could pay up.
She’d voiced her concerns to only one other person; a coworker of hers. The other woman had made a joke about trying to find a “sugar daddy” to pay her for her time. Of course it seriously had been just a joke when she’d mentioned it a month ago, complete with laughter to try to cheer Sarah up. But now? Well, Sarah was sincerely considering it.
Enough so that she made an account just to look around.
Oh god, I hope no one I know is on here.
The last thing she wanted was for a coworker or the parent of one of her students to find out she was lurking around weird websites like this. Then again, she didn’t know any particularly wealthy people, so she supposed it was safe enough...
She stared at her phone, flipping through men. There was a surprising amount of choices. Were any of these people real? Or was this just a bunch of guys pretending to be rich in order to attract women?
I doubt this even works. She convinced herself. Was this a real thing? Did people actually do this?
Maybe she could just... test it out? Just for fun? You know, just to see if she got any responses.
So that’s what she did. Sarah hesitated at first, then starting picking through the plethora of supposedly wealthy men. She gave herself a few options, trying to stick to men closer to her own age (though most of the site was older men in their 50s or later). All she had left to do now was wait to see if any of them would match with her and message her. What harm could there be in just trying it... right?
