do you have more friends in or out of the industry?

**GrouchyAdmin** · 10-19-2007, 08:13 AM

Outside. I prefer my insanity not from affiliate managers fueled by cocaine benders.

**LiveDose** · 10-19-2007, 08:35 AM

Outside for me. I try to keep a life balance between work and play and I would much rather grab a beer or play golf then chat on message boards & ICQ. Also getting to shows is great and all but more difficult on a regular basis for some of us with local businesses and family....

I'm here for the money.

**vidvicious** · 10-19-2007, 09:33 AM

In for me .. Models, webmasters, affialte managers, program owner, model agents, feature dancers, strippers... that pretty much wrapes it up for me .. Very few frends on the outside . which suck cus it doesn t give many balance or sepreration from porn .. eat sleep porn .. its a lifestyle

We're supposed to have friends?

**seeric** · 10-19-2007, 09:35 AM

99% of my friends are not in this business. thank god.

i wouldn't be able to function without their input and perspectives.

**eroswebmaster** · 10-19-2007, 09:35 AM

Out...I have some really good friends...and I mean friends who will drive to to Tijuana at 3 a.m. bail you out of jail and not ask what happened.

Yep you got me...I don't have any friends...none...not one...but a guy like you...he's so happy he must have tons of people who care about him...because people who are apparently as happy as you are are flush with friends...and success in life.

**Jace** · 10-19-2007, 09:44 AM

most of them are out, porn people suck for the most part

**TeenCat** · 10-19-2007, 09:47 AM

thanks dude you hit the nail on the head.

**SykkBoy** · 10-19-2007, 10:13 AM

mostly out, especially since I started getting more involved in community events, theater productions, etc. although a lot of those are more acquaintances then friends...

I'm the kind of a-hole that will at least ask if there is videotape of any alleged donkey-related crimes ;-)

It is a mixed bag for me. But over all I would say I have more outside also

D · 10-19-2007, 10:21 AM

Most are out.

Though I have a few really close ones that are in.

LOL no worries man..that shit's buried deep in the desert

**baddog** · 10-19-2007, 10:30 AM

I have to wonder how most of you define "friend."

I think the saying is something along the lines of "if you have two friends you are lucky, if you have three you are a liar."

Numbers may vary slightly.

**pornask** · 10-19-2007, 10:30 AM

None of my friends are in the industry.

There are some really great people in this industry who I have been blessed to meet not only on a business level but on a personal level. I think the key to not getting wrapped up to me is to realize that this is not a lifestyle for me personally

**EZRhino** · 10-19-2007, 11:27 AM

Most of my friends are outside the bIz, need to have that seperation. But I have met some really great people. Wished some lived closer to me se we can get some beers.

**Peaches** · 10-19-2007, 11:27 AM

99% of my friends are outside the biz. Those that are in the biz, I don't think I've ever actually done biz with - we have personal similarities

**halfpint** · 10-19-2007, 11:34 AM

I just dont have freinds

**GreyWolf** · 10-19-2007, 12:50 PM

By far, most outside - it's a big world outside the adult industry closet.

But.. got a number of good friends in this biz and prob among the oldest friendships around 20-30 years.

Will you be my friend?

**1off** · 10-19-2007, 12:57 PM

Pretty close actually.

Of the dozens of people in my icq list, I only consider a couple actual friends.
As for real life, I have dozens of people I know and talk with regularly, but I only think a few of them are actual "drive me to the airport" friends

**Sebastian Sands** · 10-19-2007, 12:57 PM

I think it's about even.

do you have more friends in or out of the industry?
