Stanislavski Post 6, 7, 8 & 9

Kost wants Money, love, affection, attention. I think she tries to come across like a confident woman but deep down probably despises the fact she has these sailors using her for sex. I think she would like nothing more than to find a man to fall in love with. Though herself and Schnider don't always see eye to eye Kost really has a heart of gold and when she is told about the engagement she's genuinely over the moon for the couple.

Kost wants money simply to survive but also what girl doesn't like to treat herself now and then?! She occasionally would like to buy herself new makeup and lingerie which is actually not just for her, she needs to look her best for her sailors.

She wants attention as again she needs the money but also because she's lonely due to the job she has. She never has one man stick around for more than one evening and it's got to be tough to not have the affection she so desperately wants in a form other than sex.

She wants love too for similar reasons I have stated above. She's a woman who has probably never experienced real love and dreams of meeting the man of her dreams and settling down. It's a tough cycle she has to follow as theres no way she can find true love by being a prostitute but how would she survive without it? 

Women are impatient creatures! And why shouldn't she be? She's probably done prostitution from quite a young age and it must be getting tedious for her. She's stuck in the same rut  - meet a sailor, sleep with them, get paid and repeat. This happens on a daily basis and i bet she's getting fed up of it! I think she is probably worried that this is the life she's destined for forever and that she won't ever settle down and get what she's always wanted. 

Kost will continue in this lifestyle she's in and drive herself into a deep depression. She's content at the moment but within time she will crumble. She's getting older and sailors will start paying younger women to sleep with instead. If she doesn't have money she won't be able to survive!
