[@spacewombat6174]

This sounds like a confession. He sounds honest, and appears to have reflected on his behaviour and the psychology behind it.

[@ChardonAnn]

Right

[@k4kes]

Yes he sounds honest and he definitely reflected on his behaviour, however he is 55 now does this for roughly 30 years. And yet he didnt mention a therapist even once in this interview. He did the first step of admitting to the problem and now even talking in public about it all, that is great. But he needs professional help, because especially since he seems to be a educated and overall smart person, he might think he knows what he has to do to "change". And i've seen that time and again over the past few decades that this "change" without support was not always for the better. So i really hope that even tho he gives the vibe of a old school man that might see talking to a therapist as showing too much weakness. That he can go past that and seek out help, then he has a good chance to change for the better and find what he seeks.

It seems that he wants to make one of these women a housewife and is disappointed he can't 😳

[@ijustrealllylikecats]

That happens more often than you'd think. Guys seeing sex workers, becoming regular clients and looking for a relationship with them and being disappointed and hurt when it turns out that they just see him as another client. I've seen it over and over and over again way back when I was in the industry, I wasn't street walking, it was more "high end" but it's all the same, the men are often just very lonely and everyone wants to feel loved without having to pay for it. eta- And that can be dangerous too, a client feeling hurt and rejected can be dangerous, so a lot of girls go along with it as long as they can, further feeding the delusion that he has a chance.

[@ijustrealllylikecats]

A lot of people would wonder why go to prostitutes looking for a wife, and I don't think they start out that way. They see those women as objects but if they're lonely and craving that kind of contact with someone, and they don't have self esteem enough to try to just date women, so they go for the sure thing, paying for it. The more they see these girls, they start to feel a connection sometimes, and the girl he's picked up probably just wants to get paid. It happens a lot with a type of client called a "hobbyist", men who see escorts and street walkers as a "hobby" and frequently they catch some sort of feelings.

I used to be on the streets and I know this Type of guy.. the things he says.. "I'm not gonna pay you no money, just get you high" talking about spending all his money on a girl and then she takes off. He's the type that's emotionally unstable and when he spends all his money on you or does all his drugs with you he feels as if you are now his property or that you are indebted to him.. When he talks about it being a business transaction and that's all it is, you can tell he's trying to convince himself of that. I'm sorry but that's the type of guy you gotta watch out for. Everything will be fine one minute and the next(when the drugs run out) and your ready to leave thats when your gonna have a problem.. anyway to the women currently out on the streets all I can say is trust your instincts and Not All Money is GOOD money.

Prostitutes don't do the laundry, cook, clean buy your mother's Christmas gift or bring you a cup of tea in the morning. Prostitutes don't love you or give you emotional support.

@@carefreeteee it's all assumptions. But how open and straightforward he is. Cocaine makes you confident and talkative. Uncontrollable moments/figity- too much energy, he wants to move around and his mouth moments, from the numbness from the residue left in his mouth. Lighter is the second main tool behind a pipe, so that in hand says hes in smoke mode. Specifically closer to the end because it's such a quick high, he is subconsciously getting ready to take another hit.

[@Racerboy535]

When he said “I’m tired.” I understood where he is. I just had a conversation with my girl this weekend. We were talking about how I hang with all her friends more than the guys because most dudes always talk about stupid shit. But when I hang with the ladies it always ends up with them talking shit about their men. I mean even the ones that have been married for 20 years talk about how their sex lives suck o some other simple things that could be resolved by communicating with each other. It makes me sick how people don’t communicate with one another, it’s so easy to find resolution if you open your heart and mind rather than getting defensive.

[@christopherwilson8230]

I actually needed to see this. I'm a recovering drug addict almost 6 months sober. I've been in denial about having a sex addiction because I havnt really had sex with a massive amount of women, but when I hear guys like this speak, I realize I pretty much have the same mindset when it comes to sex. I crave the attention and company of the opposite sex and will put myself into dangerous and toxic scenarios to obtain it. What makes prostitution so appealing is the quickness and ease that one can change the way they feel with a simple cash exchange. It's exactly the same concept as going to a dealer for drugs. Until I get open and honest with myself and others about this behavior, I'm doomed to the same endless cycle, and ultimately the sex addiction will lead me right back to the dope.

I see a lot of women in the comment section so let me speak from a male experience: I've paid for escort service in the past. The thrill and excitement from calling up a lady of the night is an adrenaline rush. For me I became exhausted with the monotony of dating and just wanted a woman who could satisfy my sexual urges without all the strings attached. No I'm not a ugly guy with low self esteem who doesn't have confidence approaching a girl. For years I've just been over dating and I can't remember the last time I told a girl I loved her and actually meant it. There's a lot of pro's to using escort service and many con's. Regardless, its just something I would do when bored calling escort service but you do miss having a woman around who genuinely care and want to make you happy. I wish dating wouldn't have to be so taxing and draining. Anyways, thats my rant for the night and I'm pretty sure no one will read this but if you do I hope it can be someone insightful to you from a man's perspective.

Maybe, but a lot of the IT folks in Silicon Valley are known drug and powder heads. Plus, people love a underdog survival story. I am interested in a update a few months from now.

[@TimeisUp22]

Lots of IT work from home jobs. And IT is in very high demand. The employers are not going to care what you do in your spare time, as long as you don’t come to work drunk.

[@PrisTvv]

i really enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing this

[@keisha772]

Great interview...he's a good guy...still has a conscious. He cares about what his family is going to say.

[@brierodriguez3254]

I will say, I do like Marks' flow of interesting questions w/ his interviews. He has it down pact in every video, and he even sounds more "with it" lately....can't hate on that lol

[@richboyprado]

Wow, I just finished his most recent interview. There’s no denying he’s on a downfall. He’s defeated now. Addiction wins the fight, every time. He’s lost so much weight too.

[@seanstuchbery]

thanks for spoiling it

[@christinat1019]

he seemed to brighten up and almost be proud when he said he’d never got caught by the police

[@jenniferdreves823]

Very intelligent and insightful man! I hope he gets his life together! I’m rooting for you man❤️

I never comment but this is the first time I've seen anyone reference my favorite rapper favorite rapper!

[@shyamlynn243]

You are speaking it like it is Reggie. You ain't the only one brother, thanks for sharing and being real. All these haters in the comments, they got their shit too. They just still in denial. One thing I do Know is that after afew years of sobriety a person will see life differently and will stop making choices that lead to hurt, shame, turmoil and death. It is what it is but we can always make better choices and lift each other up.

“ I think I lost my virginity at 13”... I always tell my kids to stay abstinent until at least 18. I really think that avoids so much negative.

[@hoperising7373]

Way to set a high standard for your kids. 🙄

[@sickmick001]

Great interview, my best friends dad use to tell us all the time that there is something beautiful about every woman, I like that he felt that was a gift from God to see beauty in every woman. An interesting guy I hope he finds love. ✌ and growers 💘

[@jessi.b]

I love that he said “in a way, we’re all tricks (men)” this is true. Women want a man with resources and hood providers and men want an attractive woman who will keep him satisfied sexually. That’s the real basis of many men and women. Straight up.

[@jessi.b]

Good*

[@Alex-tw8nb]

@@jessi.b no this guy is a bitch beta and you so called women fall for this type all the time

[@mattbibb1622]

This was a great interview mark. I really liked the pace as well as your subject questions intertwined with the personal stuff. Great work.

[@Youuuumaddd]

Seems like he’s high during this interview.

[@SneakerP]

I was just thinking the same thing.!!! Not even 2 minutes in 😏

[@09kenedy]

sean including you right?

[@lethalvenusian]

I knew when he said where he worked. That's that coke making him blurt out anything lol

[@jonathanmoulton9251]

How do you know? From experience ?

[@mike7984]

A Gold lol why are u offended. Haha

[@butterflyblessbless5836]

I’m sensing his internal pain is rooted with women. His subtle anger, his heaviness is quite eerie. I hope he sorts his issues out, this could prevent him harming himself or others.

[@GDug-rs5sh]

i loved this interview. honest and clear.

[@mecca777]

Ask an honest question, get an honest answer.

[@sailorm79]

He reminds me of Denzel Washington playing a character

[@FUNNYMANERICWHITE]

😂 true

[@bowdowntolsu]

Very honest and educated man. He has demons he fighting ( addiction) hopefully he wins and gets his life back right

[@yocland8841]

You'd be surprised at how many guys would like to think that they might find true love on the stroll. Alot are to tough to admit it but we all want to love and be loved more than anything in this world. 😔

[@karenoconnor4663]

One of my favorite of Mark’s interviews and I listen to every one.

[@nexttopmodel254]

"In a way we're all tricks" Damn!

[@stevietstevens9384]

Yes, really deep!

[@ledesireeatelier]

Word.

[@DeannaCorralVisionsByAnna]

Reggie your ability to emotionally connect was real and honest and I salute you I hope that you find the love of your life first inside of you so that others can love what you have closed off we are very close in age so I speak from experience You're not alone in your crusade but you have to do a lot of self reflection and inner work to guide yourself out of those deep dark patches we all have I wish you so much that life has to offer you and I hope you will find and make all your dreams come true nobody can do it but you

[@Opinionatedchic]

Interesting how drugs appear to be a part of the equation with the majority of these stories...

[@wahoo4uva]

He makes a valid point when he says, “In a way, we’re all tricks. I’m just taking the easy way out.” We don’t like to admit this, or we just don’t even see it in ourselves, but rarely are we in relationships of any kind unconditionally. We’re in them in exchange for SOMETHING - even for something good or innocent, like companionship (including non-sexual), conversation, validation, etc. Most of us are not there for NOTHING. Even when we’re giving we usually expect something in return. Some of us are better at recognizing and communicating those expectations than others. Expectations may go unspoken, but they’re still there. We all have a price. The forms of currency we prefer might be different though. This guy’s happen to be money, crack, and sex.

[@Danny0dbert]

What did a trick? I'm not caught up on the street terms. Always enjoy your interviews they are always so raw and real.

[@4Ntech]

Someone who pays for ...sex

[@juliecooper1695]

The guy seemed to be honest in his interview.... can defo relate to being hurt and not wanting to go there again... hurts bad

[@stevietstevens9384]

It's said that you attract who you are, where you are and what you are. Until Reggie raises his own consciousness and loves himself, he'll never have a 'great' partner...which is really what he wants.

[@brianlavoie1603]

I'm Addicted to these interviews! We are everyone here in some way!

[@weezie168]

This trick is a nice fella!! I hope he finds the love of HIS life one day. 😉

[@Jen-bc9oz]

Great interview. Enjoyed him very much. I sure hope can meet someone nice. Thanks for sharing.

[@DaPrinc383]

It's very interesting and telling these comments. This man has described mistrust and a broken heart yet a lot of people is pointing out aggression. Talking about he look like a killer, clowns! This is what the scared male ego looks like. A hurt prideful man! We wonder why there is such a misunderstanding between male/female emotions and the misinterpretation based off what it "looks like"... LISTEN to what his story which will describes what you're judging. I see a lot of people miss the point of these interviews! Like majority of the great people on here, this brotha is covering his pain with his addictions, but at least he has the guts to speak on them honest unlike most that judge!

[@koyoteman58]

Trickeration ? Never heard that before but I like it.
