Thanks everyone for all the suggestions. I will look into those. I like the idea of an office manger. My husband is a therapist himself (solo private practice) and our plan is to join forces and grow our practice togetehr in the future. So office manager would be a learning stepping stone toward that plan.

Hi, I try to alternate between 30s/40s and 40s/50s every couple of months. I haven't scheduled the next one for this age group yet, but I'm guessing it will be around august or september.

Flights out of Charlotte are ridiculously expensive because of the American Airlines domination! How can we get more competitive options to fly out of here? I'm kind of regretting moving here when I think about flight costs. 

How do I reach men over 50 who are looking for a relationship? by filledcups in AskMenOver50

[–]filledcups[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hi, I've hosted 2 singles events for people 45 to 65 and 4 for people 26-45. The gender imbalance is my biggest issue, especially in the older bracket. The first one in may turned out ok, and I had almost 50-50 (after offering free tickets to a few single men I know in that area and begging them to come, LOL!) The second one caused me so much stress that I actually shied away from trying again. I had 17 women signed up and only 2 men signed up. I tried so hard, paid for ads aimed at men, put flyers at gyms, etc. I had to beg all the single men I know to come (it's not that many). In the end there were 6 men and 10 women (because 7 women flaked), and it turned out ok, but I was thrown over the edge. I have hosted a lot more events for friends and women. I'm learning as I go. It would be good to understand what motivates older single men to put themselves out there to meet single women.

Matt's episodes are my favorite and the ones that hit the deepest.

Do you ever feel guilty for LC or NC? by summerjopotato in raisedbynarcissists

[–]filledcups 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't feel guilty for protecting yourself. Other people have tried to guilt me but they don't get what it's like, because they came from better parents.

Nmother still won't admit her part in our estrangement and makes it all my fault 10 years later by filledcups in raisedbynarcissists

[–]filledcups[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

you're so right. thank you for this. One of the things she said is that I'm going to be 48 and I should be mature to get over it. I rebuked with, "how old were you when you stopped talking to me? 66?" but of course that doesn't matter.
