The person in question is looking for a solid trustful friendship with a girl for say a year and this would include:

- Doing things together (cinema, dining out, long drives, weekends away) as friends do
- being able to tell you secrets and you being able to keep secrets
- you being able to share your secrets within reason
- no compromise of social freedom (no emotional attachments) and no expectations of friendship developing into a relationship
- has to be willing to spend time with said person every day
- you should be able to balance university term time with spare time well so that you can spend time with said person
- should not have a boyfriend

Terms would be outlined in a legally binding agreement made by a solicitor to outline how the person will be paid for maintaining said friendship.

That in my opinion is going too far if this was going to be put up in writing and was going to be made into a legal agreement between both of the individuals. I would say if you weren't obliged to spent time with them every day, then it would be a reasonable deal.

Lol if this sort of thing actually happened a lot, I would be friends with 10 people and earn £31,500 a year just for socializing. Make a living by going out and having fun with your "friends" yes please.

It's called being an escort, even men can do it these days and an old woman will have a job to rape a young man

Money can never buy happiness.

That's what poor people say to reconcile themselves to the fact that they'll never be able to buy champagne in bulk.

That would be mean, and it would make me everything i dislike. I do not like two faced people, who use other people to get what they want.

Whoever posted this, I really feel for you. To think that you need to pay to have a friend is really saddening - please, go and get yourself some help.

Even if someone does actually agree to this - what then? You'll be very disappointed with the outcome and this will just intensify whatever problem you currently have. You'll know deep down that it isn't a real friendship.

no, due to these points. if you are friends with someone of course you have an emotional attachment to them, platonic or not. every day is not feasible. how long every day? you would not have time for your other friends, plus there's not guarantee i'd like you so it wouldn't necessarily be fun. how long does the contract last? £3,150 is not enough for every day for a year for example. if it were a week or two or even a month then maybe.
if there is no emotional attachment nor possibility of a romantic relationship then why is having a boyfriend banned? it sounds like you just want someone to serve you and you want to control their life.

this is not a friendship.

This is really sad and pathetic, why would someone do this to themselves? Your not having a friend, your having an illusion, like a girlfriend experience from a hooker. Your paying for it - its not real.

Just take the money and then tell you to **** off.

Nope definitely not, hate the idea of being controlled so this would really annoy me, if I actually liked the person and got on with them then fine but if they're paying me then it's not a great friendship really

3150?? Pffft... Maybe 3151.42 and I'd consider...

Besides the oddly specific sum of money, if the OP is serious, then it's highly tragic..

Man there's some weird people out there..

At first it seems reasonable with the whole wanting company thing as they may just be lonely. But restricting you from having a boyfriend and wanting contact everyday seems a bit worrying!
