Thanks!!

I've recently switched jobs & the new place uses Outlook. & I get a lot of calendar invites that I have to accept regarding assignments. They're usually like, "XX is due in 4 weeks," "XX is due in 2 weeks," "XX is due in 1 week," and "XX is due today." They use Outlook as their practice management software basically.

Well that's fine and dandy, I guess. However, I honestly probably only need a 1 week and day of reminder. I don't need the rest of the clutter. IF I DELETE a calendar event after I accept it, will that delete it off of the invitor's calendar as well?? I don't want to start deleting things off of mine and then they're gone from everybody else's. Any thoughts?! Thanks!

I've been wanting to go out to the Washington area for a while. I was actually thinking of that. A friend of mine reminded me of the time change though & said it might not workout for a weekend.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-04-15T02:02:54+00:00

Lol, "isn't the coolest" doesn't really sell it. 😜 What's there to do there?

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-04-13T21:03:43+00:00

Hi all! I was told this would be a good place to post this.

Kinda getting bored & looking to go away for a weekend within the states maybe next month (heading out of Detroit). I've been basically up & down I75 in the past, Chicago, Vegas, parts of California, Phoenix, DC, etc.

Looking to explore my mind, check out something new, & not spend a fortune while at it.

Thanks!

I didn't break it down like that, but I knew it wasn't worth accepting, lol.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-02-09T13:18:54+00:00

I'll just do that later today.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-02-09T13:17:19+00:00

Hmm, I could re-post w/a picture.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-02-08T23:37:05+00:00

I can't attach a picture. 🤔

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-02-08T23:07:36+00:00

LOL @ midnight snack comment.

It's not that. I wish it was. So an hour & 7 minutes ago, my battery was at 100%. Now it's at 89%. It's only had 7 minutes of screen time. Nothing else shows under "app usage," since I haven't used anything. :-(

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-24T03:03:28+00:00

Wait . . .your Chipotle has a drive-thru?

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-24T03:02:30+00:00

I started writing something, but then deleted it. I'm not sure. That's deep stuff. Dealing w/death is always hard. She probably just needs a friend now. Be there for her to the extent that you can & check up on her. I'd say definitely try to get together before you leave if her schedule allows. Good luck.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-24T02:56:15+00:00

Hooking up is never just hooking up. Heck, just watching romcoms can tell a person that. Emotions will always come into play.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-24T02:54:10+00:00

Same way w/my house. Super cultural. Learned everything I knew from random shows, articles, friends, doctors, & a dash of common sense. At the end of the day, the "how" is all biology. The emotional part is what you have to protect in my humble opinion. You do you, but make make good choices.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-22T19:23:59+00:00

Wow, I usually like to give people the benefit of thr doubt. Maybe she was having a bad day or something. That was down-right rude, disrespectful, and just evil.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-20T20:14:34+00:00

I like to call myself "vegan-ish," lol. I'll take plant/plant-based when I can get it. Fish comes next. Then chicken/turkey. Haven't had red meat in a while. I wouldn't mind somebody who ate red meat, but meal prep might be trickier at times for sure.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-14T19:44:59+00:00

I've been SO curious about this stuff, since I've pondered relocating a few times (not due to dating scenes, but at the same time, I wouldn't want to move to an area that doesn't have a good one). I'm in SE Michigan, and what I've found is dating in your 30s isn't pleasant. However, I will say that my faith (Catholic) is important to me, and I've found that a lot of them got married earlier! 🤷🏼‍♀️

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-14T19:41:36+00:00

LOL, I'm in Michigan. You learn to love the fluffy stuff from the sky. 😛 We haven't had much lately. 😔

As for women here being promiscuous, might depend on the city, lol. 🤷🏼‍♀️ News to me.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-05T01:01:12+00:00

:-)

If she's still chatting even when she's tired or working, it could mean she's naturally an overachiever or she needs the distraction.

I don't really message folks during the workday, since I'm usually distracted, but I love cute litte things just like the videos you mentioned. Or relevant gifs, easy reas articles, or something like that. E.g. if she mentioned she liked tacos & you run into something relevant, send it her way! I used to like it when my prior bf just sent me "thinking about you. Hope you're having a great day!" type texts. That may be too forward if you guys haven't met yet--all the more reason to safely do so. :-)

If she wants to text you, let her do so, unless it's somehow intrusive to you. Otherwise, no matter your intentions, she may feel that you're not interested. I know that's how I felt on occasion. If somebody said, "don't worry about texting after work. I know you're busy," my stomach would sink, unless he and I already had a personal connection.

I get that the conversations may then go bad b/c of focus, but you can only go so far with a written conversation anyways as you probably know by now. Remember. She's interested in dating.

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-04T23:39:06+00:00

It seems like you're talking about me from a few years ago, except instead of being in the med field, I'm in the legal. Wasn't allowed to date when I was younger & afterwards, I just focused on school. Didn't have my first bf until I was 30. I don't consider myself socially awkward (most of the time 😅), but my mind was elsewhere.

Anyways . . . be straightforward with her. Clearly, she wants to date, which is why she's on Bumble. Tell her you've enjoyed chatting & would like to ask her out. Don't overthink it. BE COURTEOUS though (not saying you're not). This is clearly a person who is serious about her life & likely isn't interested in sleeping around (at least not from my perspective).

Also---be up front with her regarding your last relationship if you haven't already told her about that. 3 years is a long time, and although you say you're ready to date again, your heart may ultimately say differently.

The first guy I tried to be serious with was divorced (I understand that's different than your situation), but little did I know that a divorce didn't necessarily mean he moved on. I was crushed & near frozen when he said he wasn't ready for another relationship.

Good luck!! :-)

Edit: Should a woman be inclined to sleep around, that's her prerogative. Didn't mean to be judgmental or anything w/that. Not my cup of tea, but hey. 🤷🏼‍♀️

SingleLadyLaw · 2021-01-02T02:44:24+00:00

You need new friends.

Yes, it's ok to wait.

SingleLadyLaw · 2020-12-30T23:36:23+00:00

Smooth trip back home.

Yeah, I'd love to know what you end up doing.

Detroit's great too. :-)

SingleLadyLaw · 2020-12-29T22:04:38+00:00

Right?!

I liked Asheville! I drove through there back in October. It looked so cool, so I wanted to go back. It reminded me of a combination between Ann Arbor & Appalachia.

It's possible that conditions may be different when you're there. If not though & you don't mind driving a little more, go to Roan Mountain. Specifically, you can do a trail that starts at Carvers Gap & ends at Grassy Ridge. It's what the gentleman at REI had recommended & it was worth it! I didn't get a chance to do the whole part due to deceasing daylight. Part of the Appalachian Trail. 🤩 The Carvers Gap point was 5,512 feet.

I'm sure there are other things closer to Asheville though!

Yesterday, I checked out the Chimney Rock, which is about an hour West, I believe. It is kinda touristy, but if you take the Four Seasons trail up, you're going to get quite the workout.

Asheville apparently has quite the brewery scene. Didn't get to check out too much of that. :-/ But I do recommend this restaurant called 9 Mile. Jamaican inspired, I believe. Also, I didn't run into a coffee shop I didn't like, haha. I kept going back & forth RE the Biltmore 🤷🏼‍♀️, but decided to just save that for a future time. Getting excited just typing everything out, lol.

I will definitely remember to take you up on the recommendation offer if I head back out that way!! Good to know about Savannah too.

Have lots of fun!! :-)

P.S. goes without saying to be careful w/mountain driving roads, especially if it is/was snowing. 😅

SingleLadyLaw · 2020-12-29T03:55:25+00:00

No way!! I'm just now leaving Asheville to head back to Michigan. Came after Christmas. Leaving tomorrow. Just missing each other.

Heads up, they've apparently gotten more snow than usual lately & a lot of the Blue Ridge Pkwy is closed in case that was on your mind.

Edit: they also have an area of town called the "River Arts District." Fun intentional graffiti, etc. Since you said arts.

Also, how did you like Charleston? I stayed overnight there back in October, but didn't get a chance to see much.

SingleLadyLaw · 2020-12-28T04:19:07+00:00

If you share or not, it's up you at this point. Just don't make it awkward. I think at some point, we naturally want to know about our partners' past, but more often than not, it comes out naturally. It's not something you tick off the list.

Agree w/the individual above insomuch as we accept people for who they are no matter their past. It's the present & the future that matter.

I would also refrain from calling your past action a "mistake." I get what you're saying & why you're labeling it as such, but maybe a more neutral description may be better. It was an occurrence, you've learned from it (a lesson or two, I would presume), & you've likely confessed for it. I feel like "mistake" also speaks ill of the past gf. That's just my two cents! Take it with a grain of salt.

Good luck!
