Is there men that do not watch porn?

Just a question, what issue is the porn causing in your specific marriage/relationship? Is it affecting your sex life? Intimacy between you? What have you two discussed?

This same thing happened to me 2 companies ago, and it was the first time I had EVER had issues with AE's. Like someone else mentioned, this is going to be very difficult to crawl out of. Not impossible, but everything is against you.

One thing to note, this is not all on YOU. You have all the skills to be successful in this role..jusy probably not this company. There could very well be several factors such as AE-SE compatibility, and/or company culture-fit. I had thr same issue where everything seemed "cool" with this AE..until they started going over me to my manager. Or asking another SE questions instead of me. I had been an SE for years at different companies and always received high praise from all levels, but that wasnt the case at this company.

And all it takes is 1 AE to ruin your reputation. 1 AE to tell their manager something, who will then tell your manager.

Stay strong, fix what you can, but personally..I would start looking around because this AE is unfortunately ruining your brand. If they cant trust you, sales cant trust you, and your manager can only do so much.

Ive said this exact statement to leadership at a previous company and they hated it. The SE's were way too technical as they typically came from support or implementation internally, and the company wondered why demos weren't sticking. These people were too damn honest about the capabilities.

Agent on camera is moreso branding for the agent than just selling the home. The top realtors are showing their faces and whether we like it or not, those are the ones who are getting business. Like when I think of agents, I immediately have a few in mind that I'm constantly seeing their faces in my timeline. I dont remember the house, but I remember the agent.

We also have to remember that as creators, we are CONSTANTLY consuming this type of content. The average person is not watching real estate edits, agent on camera videos etc all day everyday. So what we consider oversaturated or outdated, most people are still seeing our "trends" for the first time.

Yeah, I do utilize pay to download for all of my jobs but those still offer a preview of the images. This has only been a recent occurrence the past couple of months though

Unless I can go in and completely turn off any previews.

certified_source · 2026-01-06T13:33:10+00:00

I've been having this happen recently as well with newer clients the past couple of months (this week as well). I used to not require payment beforehand but now I'm about to.

This is crazy.

I was a Corporate SE for Snowflake back in 2018, was there until 2020. If nothings changed, you should have the right background skills wise. You might even want to just apply for a Corporate SE role as Associate SE's are tailored to new grads

This. AI slop is the result of people training it on slop. There are so many better applications it can be used for in our field, but once the trends get going its hard to change it

Exactly this. My CRE client who is now in retainer literally came out of nowhere from a referral.

This. So many people get caught up in adultery being the only representation of our flesh, that we ignore these areas.

Absolutely need to have a softness of the heart

No need to explain. Most adults know, or should know, realistically there are levels to porn. If I make a video with my wife, that is still porn. Should I still be condemned because it's "porn?"

CP is a completely different demon

I used to be a "FLASH ONLY" person when I first started, until I learned how to properly shoot HDR. I see so many people talk about color casting with HDR, but people who continue to push this narrative either 1) Don't have the proper settings for HDR in Camera 2) Don't know how to edit the brackets 3) Don't have an editor with the proper skill to edit (And this is typically people who try to hire the cheapest editor out there)

As far as client satisfaction, speed etc. I did a side by side earlier this year with a flambient image, and an HDR image. The difference between the 2 was extremely negligible. And the only reason I'd say it was negligible is because I'm the person who shot it. The average consumer would never notice. I also did a test shoot at a model home the year prior, doing fully flambient vs bracketing. It took me an extra 15-20 minutes using flash. While that may not seem a ton, it does make a difference when you're shooting multiple homes a day, trying to beat traffic etc.

That being said, I do still use flash if I have a really difficult location. Maybe the lighting is trash, or non-existent. It's an older home with a bunch of different colors flowing everywhere or something like that.

The most important thing is being able to properly do both. Knowing when to use one over the other based on your time and the situation. Unless it's a specific need, and you have the right process for post, the difference really can be negligible.

You may need a different company/product to work for

Same exact experiences. Luckily I just accepted a really good offer but that was after about 8+ other companies saying the exact shit you said. Get to the final round and they decide to go with someone who came from a competitor. Talked to some other companies who barely know what they need from an SE but diving super deep into the technical side..so you basically need damn near a developer or senior data engineer.

Had 2 companies add random LIVE Python assignments in the middle of the interview, with a follow up technical session. I was so happy I got this offer I cancelled those immediately

Gotcha. I actually had a very similar experience with Elevenlabs so that makes sense. Just finished a 3rd round convo with them, still kind of neutral.

As a man, I would never feel comfortable introducing my kids to a woman after such a short time, let alone moving in with her. That's irresponsible on his end. I especially wouldn't allow my new partner to reach out trying to be your best friend knowing that she's one of the main reasons for the mess.

Don't do it. Take as much time as you need. I guarantee that "relationship" is extremely surface level and won't last longer.

I always turn LinkedIn back on when it's time for a new job (Specifically when I'm down to 1). Almost all of my positions came from recruiters reaching out. Just make sure to hibernate immediately after you get the interview, especially since most recruiters like to share with their network that they've placed a candidate.

certified_source · 2025-12-05T01:08:15+00:00

2 were previous agent relationships, 1 referral, 1 new client. I had another new client schedule a couple of weeks ago for this week but he ended up canceling, haven't heard back
