A lover-boy (aka pimp) is a boy who seduces a girl with the plan of luring her into employment as a prostitute. Initially the lover-boy is nice to her, giving a lot of attention and expensive gifts. After a while, when they've been dating, he tries to convince her to sleep with other men for money. He uses violence to make a girl completely subservient to his wishes. In this guide, you can learn how to stay away from him.

    Be positive about yourself. Compliments are always fine, but if we only feel better when someone else gives us a compliment, we become vulnerable. Your boyfriend can then do whatever he wants to do with you. You are dependent on him and he has you in his power. It's important that you focus on what you like about yourself and concentrate on this. Remember that everyone is unique and has something special.

    Reward yourself with something. Men, especially lover-boys, abuse this a lot. They give presents, but they always want something in return. Buy something that you like.

    Love your body. How well do you know your own body? What do you want to do and what don't you want to do? What are the impacts from prostitution? It's your body, and only yours. If you are being abused, sometimes you don't care anymore. However, your body is still special, and you can respect and value your body if you process everything that happened to you.
