I have dated two professional models in my life. One in the mid-90s, was in Playboy, the other is one now, that is kind of an off and on... currently off, she does mostly advertising, but photographers do hire her for artistic shots, no nudes as far as I know, mostly clothes, jewelry, vacation destinations.
If you can't deal with dudes sniffing around hitting on her, sending her d1ck pics... also the occasional rich dude trying to buy her... then you need to just walk away. Because that is part of the 'job'. I know it's a small sample size (two) but both were even more flaky than a regular chick. Neither was particularly good in bed, both were also really smart and not at all risk averse. They were/are both very susceptible for cons... especially dumb@ss business ideas. The one I know now, just got involved in a project with another chick to design and make really horrible looking Marti Gras costumes... but this is just one in a long series of 'business' ventures she gets into that lasts for a few months then fizzles out.
Now when she says these dudes do not mean anything to her, you should believe her. They really do not care about their fans, in fact they are sometimes afraid of them. They like the attention, and interest equals money... they care about them about as much as a store owner cares about potential customers, you want them in your store... but you always have to be on the lookout for shop lifting.... they are important to profitability, but the emotion stops there. They also know their window of opportunity is small, that when looks go, they'll just be another younger chick that steps up. so they do want to leverage whatever advantage when they can... that means you take a back seat to fvcking everything, they will get a call in the middle of dinner to show up in Costa Rica the next morning... and you have to be okay with ending the date and getting her home... then not hear from her for a couple of weeks.
The first one I dated for 6 months... actually that was much longer than most last, and we maintained contact and she is still modeling even though she is in her late 40s now and still looks pretty good... otherwise I have no idea how her life is going. The one I see now off and on, drifts in and out, is the flakiest chick I have ever met in my life... and that says a lot. I stopped trying to make dates with her because it's just no fun wondering if plans made will actually happen... Since she is involved with a non-profit that I work with, I happen to run into her every few months... we'll meet... and if she isn't dating some dude with more money than brains, she'll invite me over for sex... then we'll bounce around for a few weeks... then she starts flaky sh!t and I walk away. She always drifts back in because she knows I'm not some butt hurt fan, or relationship dude trying to lock her down, we can have some fun and when her emotions drift in another direction, I'm okay with that.
As far as women go, models are fine, they are just like every other chick you will meet, but they get a lot more validation from dudes than regular women... their lives, when they are active in the biz is chaotic... they always have to have bag packed and ready to go when their agent calls. You, the man take a back seat. The problem is if you are okay with being in the back seat... waiting around on her, she loses interest in you REALLY fast. The one I'm on/off with has literally been in 5 'relationships' with men in the last 3 years that lost themselves with her... one is actually in jail for raping her when she tried to break up with him.... The last time we were hot and heavy, she only wanted to meet me at her place because she had just broken things off with a dude that was following her around. You MUST have a great deal of emotional self control if you are going to try and date a model... and you have to be flexible without coming off as weak... this is really hard to do.
