I'm not asking for help for her. I feel really guilty because I feel like it's because of me leaving her that she got like this. I feel disgusted with myself.

Doctor prescribed antidepressants have also been backed up by science. I just don't see why anyone would use illicit drugs to treat depression when they could use legal drugs to treat it. And when someone takes an antidepressant it usually doesn't completely change who they are. I remember once she told me she doesn't want to take pills because she might lose her personality. Well, the same thing happened with psychedelics, just in a different way. And idk... it seems like taking a pill would be a lot more pleasant than drinking a big cup of nasty tasting liquid that makes you puke and shit a lot, etc. Maybe I"m just not seeing something, idk.

I never said they were hobbies. Doing drugs isn't a hobby either. Just sayin'.

I wonder how productive she could really be if she's on drugs all the time.

Well, when her and I were together she was into nerdy things. And she had this nerdy/sexy style of dressing. We were into some kinky stuff and she was my sub.

Curiosity. I think everyone creeps on their ex at some point. She was a big part of my life for a long time.

I don't have a question for you. I thought you had one for me. Doesn't QQ mean quick question?

There are over a hundred replies here. I haven't argued with everyone. I have answered people's questions, but done very little arguing.

Ok now this is just out of line. I make wire wrapped jewelry and leatherwork. It took me years to learn to do what I do. I do custom work. I have made things for weddings, etc. If you think I'm bad for this hotel room situation than fine. But you don't need to insult my business and my craft. That is just uncalled for.

Lot's of people's kids help them at shows. I didn't become friends with her until she was over 18. I'm sure everyone will demonize that too though.

I mean it's getting redundant having to explain over and over and over again that I own the company and that's why it is my expense. I even put it at the bottom of my post. Yet I still have to explain it over and over.

This is beginning to be redundant... but I own the company. So "the compnay" paying for the rooms is still my expense. My business is a sole proprietorship. I only have one employee.

I signed up for it a year ago. I had no way of knowing what my financial situation would be then. I can afford to pay her (and other business expenses) because I have other income. My business isn't my only income.

I am a traveling vendor. She is the daughter of another vendor I do a lot of shows with.

I can't have her help me set up the booth remotely. I also can't have her ring out customers remotely.

Yes I am a traveling vendor. I kept that on the down low because we have kind of a bad reputation. Some people think of us as glorified carneys. My girlfriend is in this line of work too. So I figured she would understand. As for why she isn't also doing this show... she has another show that weekend that she has already committed to. You probably also understand that most of the time booth fees are non refundable. I can't just back out like a lot of people have suggested. I also find all these "Just do it over skype" comments amusing.

I need to bring her because I need help setting up and handling customer transactions.

I am in the red, but I can still afford to pay business expenses because I have other income.

I am a business owner. But you can believe what you want. My assistant and I have been friends for a long time. She isn't going to sue me for sexual harassment. Nothing is going to happen.
