This one caller that is really into very much older women was telling me how he came across some old letters in his grandmother’s attic after she died and he was the one clearing out the house. He realized after reading several of these that his grandmother had been a lady of the evening on and off for many years. She’d been widowed fairly young and only ever had fairly low paying secretarial jobs, yet she lived a decent lifestyle and he came to the conclusion it’s because she was selling herself on the side. Maybe even with many of the clients she’d met at the large firm she worked for.
He said she was a beautiful woman when she was younger and he was sure she likely had gotten a lot of attention from men, wealthy men that could afford to be generous with her should she grant them sexual favors. He was honestly kind of turned on by the things he found out in these letters. He said he wouldn’t tell his mom about them, since it would upset her, but he concluded some of these letters were from men she’d slept with for money that she kept in touch with.
He said when he’d visited her as a child there were frequent phone calls and hushed conversations, no doubt arranging dates for after he’d gone to bed and was asleep for the night. You never can really know what’s going on in the private lives of others, even ones in your own family. So many things can be kept secret right under your nose, it’s no wonder people get suspicious, in many cases, it’s indeed warranted. Photos he saw of her with men he’d never met, now he knows how granny kept up a decent life on a low paying job. Her side hustle paid most of the bills and apparently she was still making dates until a year before her death according to the correspondence he found. You just never know what secrets ones are keeping.
