I understand a fantasy and a one time thing like tipping on a guys night out at a strip club, but some of these guys think they are in a relationship with someone they will never meet and don’t even know their real name or life details.

    I think it depends. Sometimes they are unaware that the model doesn’t like them, sometimes they are aware, other times the model does like them and actually gets to know them. Like for example, there have been cases of fans actually ending up in relationships with cam models, or Twitch streamers dating their moderators or top donors, etc. That’s generally quite rare though of course but it does happen. I think a lot of guys are just lonely and like the attention it brings.

      You only know it “happens” because they told you it happens, correct? It isn’t like you personally know someone who married the camgirl he used to pay.
