There are many, MANY people who cannot bring themselves to love a prostitute or a former prostitute. I strongly suspect randygurl is one of those people, and it would certainly suck to go through the rest of your life hating yourself for what you did because working retail was too hard.

Well, for one, prostitution is not the same as killing someone. Killing someone intentionally, that is. Murder. Most people would see a grave difference just on the self-defensive level alone.
My point is that once you are in love, many people find it very easy to accept the flaws and foibles in that person's past. Especially in this case in which the OP is describing a temporary situation (the vagary of her choice to stop when she intended to notwithstanding). But very rarely is this something you will find out from someone on the first few dates. At least, I wouldn't tell someone I was seeing casually.
As for the question of money, it is not that working retail is too hard...it is the AMOUNT of money in comparison to working retail, I am sure. You've already labeled prostitutes as unmarryable - at least by you. No need to call them lazy, too.
Once again, she should refrain from going through with this because she feels compunction about how it will affect her emotionally, mentally - her OWN feelings of self-worth. Not because someone won't love her. Someone will.
