If you think about, this makes the most sense. A person with an OF is getting their rocks off without other people present most of the time. Unless they are doing content with someone who enjoys making stuff too. But I think the majority of content creators are solo ventures.

In that most common scenario you would have a person not comfortable making content dating someone who does. That relationship is going to end eventually when OF creator is getting their sexual needs met and the SO isn't getting enough attention to satisfy their needs.

But of course there will always be outliers like asexual people or having opposite libidos. Which those situations might work great to have an OF side gig.

But if we are talking the majority or people, I think its safe to say one OF creator dating a non-OF creator is probably not very likely.

Relationships typically involve more than just sex.

OF content creators date non-creators all the time, just like other sex workers. There's more to relationships than sex, and content creation isn't the same thing as actual sexual intimacy and connection
