I'm a professional girlfriend and men pay to take me out for dinner - here are the weirdest requests I've received

An Australian woman has lifted the lid on her life as a 'professional girlfriend' where men pay her to dress up and go out on fancy dates.

The 24-year-old from Brisbane works as a dancer in strip club, but her side hustle as a 'professional girlfriend' means she's often jetting off to luxury holiday destinations or enjoying meals at 5-star restaurants.

She has even been paid to stay in posh hotels or spas - as well as being routinely showered with gifts including expensive jewellery and clothes.

Despite being classed as a sex worker, Ruby said she never has sex with clients - adding she draws the line at 'holding hands'.

She added that she loves both her jobs, as a stripper and professional girlfriend, and has no plans to give them up.

Ruby said: 'I love my work as a professional girlfriend - I've been paid to go to fancy dinners, arcades, theme parks, and spas.

'They find sexual gratification in it, or feel some kind of reward - but we don't go beyond holding hands.

She also recalled the first time she was paid to watch one of her clients have sex with an escort - describing her third 'job' as 'being a cuck'.

'I became a cuck after my client came to me with the idea - he wanted to book an escort and I offered to be there too.

'I sat in a cuck chair in my lingerie with a drink in hand, and I even gave pointers as they went along, so he could please her.

'I got paid - so did the escort - and he was really happy with the outcome!

'I actually feel its made me a more caring and empathetic person - it's provided a different insight into the positive impact I can have.'

Ruby started off doing OnlyFans in 2020 which progressed over time into securing a job in a strip club a few months later.

She now earns around $300 on a weekday evening, and $500 per night if she works a weekend evening, from tips and lap dances.

But on the side, she said, she loves to do other things - sometimes being a dominatrix with paypigs, or a professional girlfriend.

Men who want to be submissive have paid for her haircuts and groceries.

Others have taken her out on dates - and paid for her time as well as covering the cost of a luxury meal, drinks and entertainment.

Ruby said: 'I went on a spa date before, with drinks and dinner and a massage.

'Generally when I go to dinners, I don't go easy on their wallets.

'I'll happily rack up a bill of $250+ and then I ask to take home leftovers!'

She added that, one time, a generous client booked a hotel room for her in a 5-star hotel - and only spent two hours with her.

But he paid for two days at the luxurious accommodation, so Ruby brought her friends along and turned her stay into a mini girls' holdiay.

Ruby said she has one regular client she has worked with for a long time and trusts enough to go abroad with.

She said: 'We're planning a holiday to Singapore together and he's paying me over $4k as well as the cost of the trip.

'We won't even be in the same room!'

While 'cucking' is a newer side hustle to her usual work, she said she's keen to continue it.

She said she even found it 'interesting and cool' to watch sex from a different perspective.

Although she said things don't always go to plan - which is part of the fun of it.

She said: 'As they got more into it, I sat with them on the bed.

'I ended up getting punched in the face when the escort went to reach for the head of the bed and found me!

'Afterwards the client and I went for a drink and did a debrief - he was really happy.

'He said he would do it again too.'
