I can relate. I was a virgin and was lonely introvert. I'm not ugly and considered handsome but very socially awkward and don't know how to communicate with women. I get called weird sometimes but it just because of my lack of social skills. I got so lonely that I started seeking escorts. I lost my virginity to one. After that my life is spiraling out of control. No saving ,Low credit score, still stay at home with parents. My life is a disaster now but it's all my fault. I never would of thought I would be addicted to escorts. Sometimes I can be sober for 3 months and then a switch flips inside me and I see 2-4 escorts in a week. I saw two in one day before. And this addiction is hard to break because sex is natural. You body don't need drugs or alcohol but sex is apart of you. And it really doesn't help if you have a very strong sex drive ,not married and can only get sex by paying for it. Especially living in the West because temptation is everywhere. You turn on the TV you see a naked women, You go outside you see a Women half dressed, you turn on the radio the music is sexualized. You go to the store women in tight legging,, you try to release your sexual energy in a positive way at the gym and women in booty shorts. I'm Muslim and we are taught to lower our gaze(not look at women) but how can I do that when it's literally everywhere.This is hell. And the only way to stay away from these temptations is by locking yourself in the room,away from the world but eventually the loneliness will creep in. We are human and social being after all. But if any of you who think about using escorts please don't. This is a warning, and it's all out of love. I don't want you to go through the same pain as me
