@ldwm24: You are extremely strong to come forward, and I am incredibly saddened by what happened to you. It's not fair or fun in any way, and it was NEVER your fault whatsoever. Don't EVER blame yourself. You couldn't have known about any of these risks, based on what you knew about the world at the time - and you have NOTHING to feel ashamed about. You really did your best for reasons pure to your own morals. You come from the real world where women AREN'T completely mentally desensitized, manipulative and viewing all men as walking wallets (at least not to THIS degree).
The vast majority of guys in the world (and on camsites) don't know ANYTHING about this "model's perspective" that I wrote about above, and pretty much EVERY guy in EVERY camgirl chatroom STILL believes they have a chance with the girl (if they truly wanted to), and that the girls are appreciative of the compliments (despite having literally heard them ten thousand times) and that they are sincere in their replies. Some of those guys then proceed to get more involved with a girl; a private here, a group there, followed by some deeper and deeper chat conversations as the girl weaves a story for you, tailored to ensnare your specific personality. It has happened countless of times; the best example of the kind of manipulative girl that NEVER gets caught are the rooms with the repeat big-spenders that come into girls' rooms and cheer them on, showering them with thousands of credits every day in some pathetic attempt to feel friendly and "connected" with the camgirl as if they now suddenly belonged together. Well... love can't be bought, and especially not in a camgirl chatroom where every guy just looks like a walking wallet with a penis to the girls...
The first problem with the idea of wooing a camgirl is that they don't respect you. To them, you just look like yet another loser with a penis and money. Anything you can think of saying to them, they've heard it all before, and they are incredibly bored by all of it. That's not a very good starting point for sincere flirting with a girl. It's just more bla-bla for them, and they'll just entertain those guys in the hope of converting them to regulars that come in and feed them money. If a guy never tips, they'll soon reveal their true selves as they gradually stop talking to those guys.
The more repeat customers they can acquire, the better off they will be...
This is just a job. They go into the studio room, greet the manager (a guy who they've usually fucked for favors and extra paychecks more than once), turn the computer on, undress, and enter a virtual fantasy world where they play elaborate games with the giant, nebulous, swirling mass of unknown, "pathetic men" from around the globe. They see their room fill up with hundreds of horny guys that all look the same ("pathetic losers with money who believe they have a chance with ME, hah!"). They'll entertain them in exchange for money, and tell the guys exactly what they want to hear so that they'll grow attached to these women. To them, it doesn't matter which men they happen to be entertaining for the day, as long as they're earning money. If they are extremely friendly towards you, it's an extremely good sign that you are spending too much and that they don't want to lose you as a customer. And... Then... as the day draws to a close, they shut down the studio computer, get dressed, and walk back out into the real world; the box containing all of those horny men now but a mere dark screen, as they breathe in the air of the real world on the walk back home to their boyfriend, family and friends.
Tomorrow they'll do the same thing... and this goes on around the world around the clock. It's happening to countless men on camsites right now as we speak. There are rooms filled to the brim with hopeless guys, hopelessly trying to win the affections of their chosen camgirl, right at this very moment. The only thing that distinguishes one guy from another for these camgirls, is how much money they can get out of him...
Does this post have to end on a downer? No. I guess there's hope: You know, as for the real world... these women are often completely bearable. Sure, they'll have a slightly inflated sense of self-worth ("ooh, I'm so hot that everyone wants to fuck me"), but they'll also have something else that's actually very valuable in a relationship: They won't give a damn about random guys hitting on them in a bar. Compliments have lost all value to these women and as soon as they're hearing compliments from random guys, it evokes in them the same "haha, what a loser" emotional response that they've conditioned themselves to feeling towards compliments in the chatrooms. They really don't give a shit about compliments. They're not easily taken by some random guy, and they are completely sexually liberated and happy with the guy they're with. Oh... wait, nevermind, actually, this is a downer ending as well: Because the guy they're with, is not you (whoever you are, dear reader). It's someone in their own city, in their own country...
After reading this, I hope that it awakens the reader to the reality of these girls, and the girls' perspectives on it all. So next time you (dear reader) go into a chatroom, just look at the hundreds of guys hopelessly trying to win the girl's affections at that moment. Be very happy that you're not one of them. Feel free to go into camgirl rooms for fun, but don't be a sucker. They've got enough of those in their rooms.
PS: Feel free to take my two posts and put them on forums or blogs or anywhere else, if you want to educate other men. I don't think I've ever seen the girls' perspective covered so thoroughly before, and a lot of men could be helped by this.
