Mia Johnson, 24, earns £2,000 a month thanks to seeing her sugar daddies.
Slurping noodles in my uni dorm, I scrolled through Instagram and spotted that all my mates were on holiday.
America, Dubai… how could they afford it? While they were jet-setting, I was living on packet food in student halls.
A few weeks later, after they’d returned from their sun-soaked destinations, I met up with them.
I couldn’t help but notice their perfectly manicured nails, gorgeous salon-styled hair and designer handbags.
‘How on earth do you pay for it all?’ I huffed.
‘We’re sugar babies,’ they said.
I didn’t understand. But the girls explained it all to me.
Turned out they had signed up to a dating site for sugar daddies and sugar babies – women who receive cash, gifts or holidays from older men looking for company, or someone to spoil. Sometimes, a man would even pay them cash to join him for lunch!
The sugar daddy deal
It got me thinking. I’d started modelling and designing my own clothes, but it wasn’t enough to pay my rent or my bills. More than that, I wanted to be wooed, romanced and treated properly. And it sounded like a perfect way to get what I wanted!
So, I signed up to a website, uploaded a picture of myself in a nice dress and in a bikini.
I described myself as chatty, fun, bubbly and a bit cheeky.
Then I waited for the first man to contact me.
