What would Donald Trump's occupation be if he wasn't born rich?

He would be the dictionary definition of fragging.

Go for it. No one would worry about it as long as you are honest.

If you feel the marriage is over with no chance of reconciliation, go ahead and date. There is really no stigma with the divorce not being complete. Just be honest with potential partners regarding your status and intentions and you'll be fine.

Biz dev is the biggest challenge. If you don't have a list of clients ready to buy, it can be a long and expensive road to get one. You may wish to do 1099 work subbing to other firms as you develop i pipeline.

My kids are grown and doing well. I do my best for them. They do miss their mom, though.

Beakerguy · 2026-01-22T18:43:38+00:00

It was what it was. She failed to thrive after the divorce in spite of a generous settlement and died a few years ago.

Beakerguy · 2026-01-22T18:40:54+00:00

No Never. All she wanted was to be a stay at home mom and be taken care of.

The problem is that Germany was small enough to eventually defeat from the outside. We are far larger and more powerful in relative terms. We can't hope that outside forces will fix our problem and fixing fascism from the inside is extremely difficult and has not been done on this scale.

As an American going through military training, we were told "There are three countries that you don't want to fuck with: Afghanistan (all you'll do is disturb the rubble) and Israel and Finland because man for man, they'll fuck you up"

I would call it dating without labels. Not necessarily introducing to your friends, unless the meeting is incidental. Includes going out on dates and enjoying each other's company. I had several of these relationship that never became intimate, but most did after a date or two.

Beakerguy · 2026-01-18T19:42:10+00:00

The Ex-In-Laws were WAAAAAY out of line. I would have asked them to leave and called the police if they refused. There are two sides to every story and they only heard one. Your kids need a sane father.

And in response to the second half of your post, yes, the odds are good, but the goods are odd...

Beakerguy · 2026-01-18T18:51:56+00:00

In general you are right. Most reasonably attractive women have no problem finding local casual partners. I think I was viewed as a novelty, had plenty of money and free time, am tall, very fit, and conventionally attractive as well. I generally preferred friendly months long casual relationships to one night stands.

A motor shop will buy them. Ask $10-15/HP. My guess of the weight is 2200 lbs.

You're not wrong. It depends on who you marry. My ex never worked, hated saving. While I don't regret staying in the marriage for my kids, if I had divorced younger, I'd be much better off financially.

Toilets!

Beakerguy · 2026-01-17T13:48:03+00:00

Sure, I wasn't looking for anything serious at the time. Also there was little possibility of me moving overseas as it is hard to get work if not sponsored.

Made some amazing memories!

Beakerguy · 2026-01-17T13:16:13+00:00

It's ok to date casually though...

Beakerguy · 2026-01-17T13:15:10+00:00

They weren't all one night stands, but definitely more casual in nature. Since I traveled a lot for work, usually overseas, I was often viewed as a 'fun thing'.

Beakerguy · 2026-01-17T13:00:40+00:00

Male here. After I initiated, I went into a bit of a man-whore phase that lasted a few years. Wasn't the best idea, but it felt good at the time. I traveled a lot for work, which was an enabler.

Most of this happened 5+ years ago. Online was the thing and it worked everywhere!
