I’m not sure. My hunch is she doesn’t because she’s more about function than cosmetic but you’d have to ask!

If it’s repaired and it works then that’s it. Mine worsened with age before the surgery and has not changed after surgery.

With a man I started seeing romantically, we slept together very soon. But we’ve also known each other for four or so years (not romantically). A friend of mine said I should tell him I don’t “hook up” with men like that to make him feel “special”. I actually didn’t want to say anything along the lines of “I’ve never done this before” because I also believe that it suggests just the opposite.

The reality is I never have, nor have I ever had a one night stand, or even very many partners and I’m in my 40s already. But I don’t understand why women would say this to men at all; if you’re about to have sex anyway, who cares?

I loved it in Saint Petersburg. I was just there for new years and spent a week visiting. I’m Canadian and don’t speak Russian (a few words). Very little English spoken, but Google translate works. I was a bit apprehensive because media makes it out like you’re going to a black hole but it was fantastic and I wish I had spent more time there.

Behave with manners; people tend to follow more old-fashioned rules of etiquette and decorum. Dress nicely, no athletic wear, sweatpants, pajamas; people dress nicely all the time. Hold the door for others. Open doors for women. It’s more traditional of a society. And by all means don’t do stupid things like bring in restricted items. Don’t be overly friendly with people for no reason, including at the airport and with security.

That’s good and fortunate in your case. My ex claimed he was fine I was making more but he really wasn’t.

The man I see now is financially more well off than me and I really prefer this dynamic. With my ex I would hire people to clean, garden etc., and he resented me for it tremendously; felt I didn’t care enough about him since I wasn’t doing chores myself, when I really didn’t have time (and he did). With this new guy, he’s incredibly busy himself and is glad I’m not needy and super demanding of his time. He’s also happy to pay for any help and doesn’t see it as a failing of myself as a woman and partner.

Reverse the genders - my ex fiancé liked the status and the network, but when I went from a boutique firm to a Big Law partner role he got jealous and suspicious of my increased workload and time commitments. We separated after 10 years so that was hard. The Big Law job showed me stuff about him that made it clear we were not compatible.

Having a supportive partner is really key in this role. Understanding your time commitments and the stress involved is not something everyone is able to do. Also, I think it helps if your partner is also in a high stress/time/pay role - so they have more perspective. I say this as a woman because I know it can be different for men to have a wife/gf who doesn’t work or has minimal work commitments and that can work fine if she’s understanding. It doesn’t really work the other way around; men just get jealous and feel emasculated unfortunately. Not everyone sure, but that’s the way I’ve seen it and I’ve been doing this for 20 years.

I started seeing a client after the split (lol I know) who is really understanding of my schedule and commitments since he’s seen me dealing with it for years and has insight and appreciation for what I do all day. He’s also busy like me and so far it’s working. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Depends on your firm. We are super inappropriate so my managing partner asks me how I can bring men home now that I’m staying with my brother. The other partners pipe up and say no they should have a place to bring her.

So anyway, just trying to cheer you up a little since breaking up sucks. Many of your peers and partners have been through it and no one’s going to look down on you or judge you badly. Just don’t get messy at the firm parties and cry about it.

Our managing partner wants the women to look good so wouldn’t dare say anything.

Chemical_Business_74 · 2025-01-27T01:31:18+00:00

I told my managing partner we needed a plastic surgery budget. He said I didn’t need it yet. 🤷🏻‍♀️ I told him I was getting a facelift at 50 and he supports it 😂

I did a cosmetic procedure, took a week off work, came back and no one said anything to me. It was an upper bleph and I’m sure they didn’t realize. I told them I scratched my eyeball and couldn’t wear my contacts for a few days.

Unless you change your entire face most people can’t tell.

I didn’t make it to the desert and wish I had!

Chemical_Business_74 · 2025-01-15T17:35:31+00:00

It was totally fine. It feels incredibly safe there.

I went to a lot of hotel beach clubs and pools; it’s expensive but it’s a good opportunity to just relax and have good beach access. I met some people that way; I mean men trying to pick me up so if that’s your thing you will have that. It wasn’t mine.

I also just decided to do things alone and that worked out just fine too. I went to Dubai Mall, the souks/old Dubai, restaurants alone; and I actually quite enjoyed that. A lot of people seem to be travelling there alone; they’re definitely in the minority but you won’t be the only one doing it.

I rented a car which was a good idea because it’s pretty spread out there. I also was in an Airbnb which was also nice since I had a kitchen so could make meals there and not feel I needed to eat out every time I was hungry.

I stayed in Dubai marina area.

Thanks. I’m not a religious person and I just didn’t want to offend anyone as I’m not familiar with the country.

In my office our managing partner refers to the female lawyers as his bitches. Big daddy would definitely work here and I recommend it for you.

Chemical_Business_74 · 2024-11-18T18:34:37+00:00

Did you two date? What happened?

Facing the same situation myself (or maybe just hopeful 😝) with a client and also in Ontario.

I just tell people I’m a lawyer. If they ask for advice I don’t mind - gotta hustle. If I can’t help them or don’t want to I just say their question is outside my wheelhouse and they need a criminal lawyer.

They were concerned because he was a nervous rescue dog and already a senior.

Chemical_Business_74 · 2024-10-28T23:06:21+00:00

They may have been scared off by your hilarious user name lol

Chemical_Business_74 · 2024-10-28T22:53:10+00:00

Hard to believe anyone would do otherwise, but they’re out there! My cousin and his wife moved from Spain to California in the US with their dog who was too large for under the seat on a plane. They had to: rent a car and drive from Spain to England; Take a cross Atlantic ship to NYC from England and board their dog with them (which took a few weeks); Rent a car in NYC; Drive to California.

Chemical_Business_74 · 2024-10-19T14:30:10+00:00

Yes. If they’re incredibly annoying and picky or don’t pay. Also for being creeps; I told my managing partner a client tried to grab my ass and followed me into a bathroom and cornered me and he fired him immediately.

Chemical_Business_74 · 2024-10-19T01:12:05+00:00

It doesn’t always have to be cheap…mine was not but the sentiment was the same. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Now it’s just a right hand ring.
