I'm partially retiring.

First, I just want to apologize to everyone for being so MIA these öast two months. After what I went through at the end of June, I just needed some Jaana time. During that time, I decided that it's best that I partially retire from this line of work. i say partially because I plan to still do independent private shows, as well as film one or two clips per month. However, I will not be appearing on Streamate, MFC, or Niteflirt, and I will not be actively updating my website or other related websites.

There are a number of factors for why I've made this descision, the biggest being how little any of my "fans" cared after the end of June. I only received a handful of e-mails and messages from fans. Cam girls, site owners, and others involved in the industry supported me and sent me some of the sweetest, most encouraging letters I've ever received - but the people who watch and enjoy my work, who would constantly tell me how they loved me and my work, hardly said a word. Throughout July I posted about how much as a hard time I was having, and almost no one reached out to me, or even bought clips or cam shows. That feeling of being replaceable really hurt, and it really jaded me about being in this business. Girls can raise $10,000 in weeks for implants or vacations, but I can't raise $480 to pay my rent while I wait for therapy to start? I busted my ass for the first 5 months of this year performing and filming so my fans would always have something new and unique to watch from me, but suddenly my life is in shambles and no one is around to help me pick up the pieces. What hurt the most was when some people actually accused me of using donations to "bail out" my ex, even though there was no bail, and surprise surprise, I haven't seen him since that night.

I'm sorry of this sounds whiney, but it's how I feel. And this isn't directed at anyone on Freeones specifically, more the people who follow me on social media and who constantly send me messages on Skype and cam sites. FO has always been great to me, so please don't think this is about you guys.

I've been doing this for almost 3 years and I guess it's just time to slowly start to move on.
 
What exactly means partially retire? What you mean is you just do less in adult right?
 
No need to apologise Jaana ... You are going through the mill and you are doing the best you can babe.
And no you do not whinning because times are tough out there.
Kisses to you babe
 
Welcome back

Jaana, if after three years you can't raise 480$ to pay your rent is a clear sign that you are in the wrong business. I also would like to pay my expenses as a WTA tennis player, but it's not gonna happen. It's not written anywhere that fans should help performers to pay their rent or expenses: business don't work like that. You don't sell something just because you ask someone to buy it; in fact you're most likely not going to sell it, that way. Beside few very rare exceptions, fans are not your friends and they will be even less if you harass them with money requests.

Try to imagine a real friend and asking them money and declaring your disappointment if they don't give you any: they won't be your friends anymore, trust me, because they probably realize that your idea of friendship is measured according to your personal gains. Now imagine a fan, who in most cases is nothing else than a potential customer, and blend their balls constantly on how they should feel obligated to buy your product. Or imagine yourself in a supermarket being harassed by a sales person who ask you to buy something constantly because he's got a family to feed. It's a total no-no, isn't it?

I know you won't like this, but believe it or not, it is something i tell you with good intents. Then, of course, if you want to take it otherwise feel free. We all have a talent for something and you should look inside yourself to find out what yours is. You are still very young and i would be really sorry to hear that you've gone down because of porn. This is a job which burns all the terrain around you, should you decide to do something else after it: pictures videos and voices are spread at the speed of light and it gets really hard to get a regular job when that happens. I think you're still in time to figure out what your real talents are and to focus on them before it's too late. In any case, the best luck to you about everything, even porn, should you keep holding on to it.
 
Shit, sucks you've gone through all that. I'm sure you'll find a way through it. What doesn't kill you makes you stronger. My best wishes to you.

The system won't let me rep you. So I just wanted to say that what you said strikes me as good, sincere "big sister" advice. I'm sure that Jaana will take it that way. And I hope things improve for her and she goes on to find much success in whatever she does in life.
 
Why wouldn't I? I do love this board.

That's good. I'll be honest, I've never really checked out your site or work, but you do seem pretty cool and it's nice when you're around the board. Glad to hear you'll still be around to shoot the shit even if you're scaling back your involvement industry-wise.
