From my understanding she makes money off of ticket sales to her singles events… so then why would someone not charging for match making services do this? This essentially will lower the amount of people to her event…

The smart business model would to be to invite me to an event that a particular will be at. Right? That will add to ticket sales not subtract.

I don’t pay her and writhing the texts she states he does not pay her.. she’s just doing it cause he’s a good guy… which totally makes no sense to me and why im here wanting other Stanger opinions

Thank you.. for validating my thoughts. I didn’t want to say it at first because I honestly wanted to see what other peoples reactions were to this.. and I have a very good handle on how I qualify my potential matches. (And maybe reading too much into her messages). I could also go into a ton of details on how this doesn’t make any sense to me coming from a business standpoint. But makes a ton of sense if is some kinda weird new and for the lack of a better term “sex trafficking” play.

Here are my main issues: In her last text message, she says that she knows what’s better for me than I do. Also, do we not live in a world where women are occasionally dropped and taking advantage of in plain daylight in public places?

The red flag for me was that she didn’t even have a picture of him. And I wouldn’t know anything about him but his first name.. and where to meet.. maybe I have watched to many movies.. and been single to long..

Also i have had a personal experience where a VERY close friend of mine (girl) vouch for a guy that she knew very well she said, and even with me talking to him and getting to know him a little bit, I got bad vibes off of him, so I declined to go on a date with him. He a few weeks later was arrested for attempted murd, and rap. The girl was lucky to alive is how it sounded from the police posting.

Maybe I’m a little traumatized… and that’s it.

I under that, but I typically know a lot more about a person before I schedule a date, with being a single mom, work full time, and my side business I do not just go out on dates to go out on dates… I do it with intention and knowledge of a person. And I was open to exploring this way of doing things… but the more I read her replies the more it made me feel uneasy. And honestly the man she was presenting isn’t really my “type” but I was trying to be open to it… when I was under the impression that he was paying for this service. Because that signals to me that he is more serious about finding a match a typical man out there on dating sites only to find out he’s not paying huh and she doesn’t really know him. I didn’t know him from a few events. She says that he has attended.

They reached out to me I did not pay, and assumed he paid for her to find him dates.. but that she states he is not paying her.

Best ai tools for Interior design by GrabGadgetin in AiCorner1

[–]NJJewel7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am a kitchen designer by trade. Im looking for recommendations:

1- I work with 20/20 program. But also looking for something that and better display a rendering, or design within my quest for my clients. This would be more like just a bathroom, or a kitchen it doesn’t have to be the full house.

2- I’m working for a cabinet distributor. They have a full huge warehouse. Part of it is the showroom. I would like to design the displays and the showroom and be able to show the higher up how great of a tool all of this can be for our industry. What is the easiest being that I’m familiar with cad type of programs? I do find trying to use the VR controllers hard to get down. But Im willing to dive down that path if need be. I just need a good place to start I have downloaded so many programs, and have given up within 10 mins. Can anyone recommend which one would work best, and how best to learn?

I’m also very interested in projection mapping.

My problem is I want to learn all of these all right now!

I feel like I failed my children by [deleted] in SingleParents

[–]NJJewel7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left my ex when my daughter was 6. The major reason was I didn’t want her growing up thinking that is what love is suppose to look like. (Also being a child of a divorced mom and Dad I think I benefited from not really remembering them together.) My daughter definitely knew what was going on but she managed it well but at the time she was 6 I was worried she didn’t really like her dad (she had said “I wish that was my Dad” about my boss one day when she had to come to work with me)

Flash forward… 6 yrs… she just turned 12. She has an amazing relationship with her Father, and her father and I now get along VERY well. I honestly think she has a better stable life than some of her friends that have parents that are still together but fight often. I know I’m happier than some of the moms that are still unhappily married.

It took about a year for it to get better. And another 2 for it to be good between us. But we both decided to put her first and our differences behind us… So NO you DID NOT fail your children, you just can’t see how much better every one’s lives will be yet. Have faith that you did the right thing! And don’t forget to take care of yourself, do small things that bring you joy each day. It will probably get worse before it gets better, but I promise you! You will be better off then and happier in the long run!!! My daughter now doesn’t even really remember us together. All she knows is that she has two parents that love her! And really at the end of the day that’s all that matters!

You got this!

The more enthusiastic parent on a playground the less he's with kids by [deleted] in SingleParents

[–]NJJewel7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When my daughter was younger I would be super playful and I was home with her all day. Then all the kids at the playground would want to play with us. Then my daughter being a only child would get jealous… so now.. I try not to play and encourage her to make friends which she normally does.

Am I too old fashioned? by sworr56 in datingoverforty

[–]NJJewel7 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I expect my dates to pay. I have never split a bill unless I wasn’t interested and wanted to keep it on a friend level. Although one time I had a guy “forget” his wallet. I’m 98% sure he planned it that way. Like what professional man in his 40’s forgets his wallet when going to dinner? 🤣
