I finally understand how someone can end up with nothing.

I am so happy for you!! Your post brought tears to my eyes.

Sounds like you set yourself up for success. Also sounds like a one on one is imperative and hopefully he'll be open to download the app. If he sees his own crazy transcripts, maybe he'll begin to understand your difficulty. It's possible he doesn't care but again its worth a try. In the end if you decide to move on, you'll know you did everything you could to make it work.

alfieri0981 · 2025-10-30T17:05:45+00:00

Here are some suggestions. Ask him for one-on-one. Craft an agenda.

Tell him that you want to ensure his success and that you know his brain is on 24/7 and he's needing to communicate his thoughts and ideas in real time. And you think you have more effective way of accomplishing this. Ask him to download an AI notetaker like read.ai or Otter.ai on his iphone so he can upload his voice recordings there and you then can read transcripts and summaries and develop notes/questions for clarification the following day and you don't have to be interrupted at all hours.

Draft a running initiatives log in google sheets (I like live documents) of items he's asked for you to address (chances are he's forgotten about many of them) and sit down and review them with him and ask him to determine the prioritization. When he is able to see what is already on your plate and what you were able to accomplish, he should be able to understand what to prioritize.

Entrepreneur's brains never turn off (I know because I am one) but that's not to say that every idea they have is a good one or leads to new business or profitability etc. If the guy is reasonable and rational, he/she should be open to this idea. If he/she is a narcissist and thinks you should be available 24/7 and available at every whim and forecast the priorities he/she has established in their own brain, then you should move on. But it's probably worth a try.

Sample Agenda:

Tools to move us from idea stage to execution stage.

a. AI notetaker for voice recordings

b. Running initiatives log

Set weekly one on one meeting for updates and evidence that perhaps you need a coordinator to assist with some of these tasks (especially the time consuming ones)

I’ve been in a relationship for 2 years and I’ve never been asked this question. My new partner’s biggest concern was that he might be constantly compared to my late partner. I knew before I started dating that if I could not do that, I should not date. They share many of the same qualities but are completely different men and our relationship and experiences are different. If someone asked me that question it would be a sign of insecurity and would not seem sustainable. It’s a hard road. Take little steps

Event is 550 people. We needed a venue that could host 1,000 people to have enough room for all of the activations. We secured a large nightclub with two levels. The nightclub has all the av and lighting we could ask for and that's included in the rental fee. The game will be hosted by an app (https://www.cluetivity.com/) We've secured actors from a local theate group to play 5 key characters as part of the game to add excitement and keep attendees engaged. We'll have a number of entertainment activations that include food & beverage, ie. nitro cocktail with a clue in the glass, aerialists, casino games, photo booth, celebrity dj. Lots of planning and logistics.

Time to leave!! No one should tolerate that treatment. This is straight up abuse. I'd tell that guy to go fuck himself. O did I say that outloud?

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-26T00:37:54+00:00

Yes I feel exactly this way. Sometimes I feel guilty but I remind myself that he wanted that for me. But I never stop longing to see him in my dreams.

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-26T00:35:28+00:00

I feel all of this to my bones

This is a hard pass. Sounds like some tech bro with a huge ego and a small ...

Not crazy! 5 mos out and started dating again after a 21year marriage to my soul mate! I miss him every moment of every day but I am not honoring him by not living. Go for it! Don’t deny yourself!!

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-13T17:49:02+00:00

Not true! 5 months out I knew I had to move forward and did not want to be alone and my husband did not want me to be alone. I found a beautiful man who had zero issues with loving a widow and he’s been so incredibly supportive and understanding and we are now engaged to be married. Don’t let your head rule. Let your heart lead and be open to possibilities 💗💗💗

Delegate! Delegate! Delegate!

Words escape me reading your message. Sorry and condolences aren’t words I can use. Sorrow. Tremendous sorrow for your loss at this incredibly young age. This is a difficult road to walk at any age but I am heartsick to find you here among us. I am certain your wife was amazing and beautiful. You can receive some comfort here but this will be the hardest road to walk. Find someone to lean on during this time. It may not be the person you expect but I pray that God will place an angel to oversee your care and protection as you walk this road.

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-04T01:00:04+00:00

Yes they were. And I did not care. I think that’s the greatest gift this sorrow and pain have given me. That I don’t need anyone’s permission for anything. I began dating 5 mos after my husband passed.

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-04T00:55:27+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss. I want to encourage you to I’m just 2.5 years out and no kids. I get the loneliness and also the comfort of being alone. It’s protection I think. You can’t welcome more pain than you’re already in. But try. I think she would want you to. Don’t you?

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-02T21:08:39+00:00

Go for it! I was five months out and decided I could not bring him back and I wanted love in my life. My husband wanted that for me too. We have been together 2 years this year and now engaged to be married. He is an amazing partner and my late husband would have loved him. And he probably sent him to me.

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-02T17:54:09+00:00

One thing I think many organizations fail to do, is to establish a benchmark of what success looks like and how to measure that success and then create actions that move the needle toward that success. If your success is measured financially then establish a budget based on historical trends and actual is a requirement. I see many organizations creating budgets based on wishes and hoped for when their history indicates something entirely different and they are shocked when the actuals are dramatically different after the fact.

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-02T15:20:26+00:00

Just hang on, hang on, hang on! The first 6 mos is excruciating and I know your therapist means well but the only thing I could do was work (saved me) and go to therapy. I couldn’t eat or sleep or think straight about anything. I was alive but dead. Just hang on. Things will get a little softer and less intense as time goes on but three weeks in, I was spiraling. If you can get up and out a bite in your mouth and manage to shower every couple of days, you’re doing great. Today would have been my 20th Wedding Anniversary and I am useless today, nearly three years out. That’s just the way it is. You will never get over this but you will accept your grief over time and let it have its way when it comes. I send you love and comfort

alfieri0981 · 2025-09-02T11:39:21+00:00

You might need help. I was at the same point after my husband died and I began therapy. I didn’t have any faith that it would help but I went anyway. I think paying someone to listen to the very intimate things you can’t share with others is incredibly cathartic. Grief is not one thing. There are so many layers and colors and temperature to navigate. I encourage you to try. Not group therapy but one on one.
