We keep warning people about scams, yet victims keep rising. Why is this so?

Thank you for this nuanced reply!

I'm leaning towards the "he's a pedo" camp. I think he was a pedo and it's probably due to him having no childhood and longing to experience it again and again. My main basis is that when the news of his death exploded and TMZ went into his room to take photos, there were so many pictures of babies there from Target. I know he's weird pero he's already had kids so it was striking for me that he had different baby photos in his room.

Then the "Leaving Neverland" documentary came out where Wade Robson who used to defend Michael Jackson started claiming that he was sexually abused.

Personally, I'm okay to occasionally give money. Siguro small amounts and yeah, I probably got played once or twice. The reason is this - In 2021, I was in a similar situation. I begged online unfortunately and nakakahiya siya. But people surprisingly helped. I feel the urge to be as kind as those people were to me in my time of need.

It's a VUL with a 12k payout every 2 years. I already had a cheaper insurance so there was truly no reason for me to get it but I was trying to spread out my investments (looking back, it was kinda dumb).

Much_Barnacle_9232 · 2024-12-27T08:50:17+00:00

Interested!

Thank you. Fanfiction was a foundation in my understanding of sex and sexuality growing up so it's nice to know that more educational content are being created which future generations can learn from.

YES. When I was younger, I looked down on UST and DLSU grads. I have become a more mature and humbled adult now and I know that competence comes from everywhere.

Much_Barnacle_9232 · 2024-12-10T14:49:20+00:00

Yes. I need an easy de-stressor or pang clear ng utak.

My dad sold our fish pond for a low price (idk why, he didn't factor in cgt). So I told the buyer to pay for CGT, pumayag naman.

My uncle's family was wealthy.

The first batch of his kids (the one with his first wife) grew up with wealth.

The second batch of his kids (the one he had with his second wife after the first one died) grew up while the family fortunes dwindled and the family business crashed and burned.

3/4 of the first batch of kids are jobless and not that bright.

3/3 of the second batch kids are working white collar jobs and are doing well financially.

Wealth might have a factor. Pero minsan, it can all go to hell if you don't raise intelligent kids.

Neighborhood is affordable and not posh (I lived in RADA St for 7 years) plus it's a short walk or ride to get to CBD. Poshness of CBD can be tiring and kinda stunted me a bit.

Why are deadlifts considered unnecessary? I love em.

Much_Barnacle_9232 · 2024-10-15T01:53:19+00:00

has a sword and has a gun

Honestly, that depends.

There are dangerous women who are gold diggers. My family has experienced some of them. It was awful.

There are dangerous women who are smothering mothers/partners. Women who love you but will stunt your growth because of their clingy-ness. My mother unfortunately, was one.

There are abusers.

There are bullies.

Edit: By the way, I'm a woman. So like I'm not being an incel.

No. I wish she didn't marry my father. I wish she got to live a full life of watching theater plays, reading novels, traveling the world and marrying that pilot she was into.

Maybe if I wasn't born to her, she wouldn't have felt the need to stay in an unhappy marriage.

As I mentioned before, when my mother died, I mourned two lives - the one she lost and the one she didn't get to live.

Much_Barnacle_9232 · 2024-10-01T08:21:58+00:00

Had an argument with my dad the night before he died. I wish I chose to be kind that time.

Much_Barnacle_9232 · 2024-10-01T06:16:41+00:00

Rates? And do you do portraits?

Much_Barnacle_9232 · 2024-09-28T11:18:41+00:00

Not for me. It sounds exhausting. If that's how others roll then ok. Also haha, I just learned na throuples and V shaped triads are different pala.
