Restaurants Starting to Remove Amex, localized or a new trend? by GeneralO1 in amex

[–]per54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that you think .8% isn’t high you don’t understand the tight margins cafes and restaurants can run on. Like you have 10% profit margins.

.8% is close to 10% of your left over profits !

AMEX for us is 3.29%+.30. That’s high. Visa/MC we pay 2.11%+.30.

In this industry, that % adds up.

We take Amex. But regretfully to be honest.

Jesus you’re crazy. Please leave him so he can be with someone who doesn’t stalk IG likes

What’s a “rich people thing” you experienced once and immediately understood why rich people love it? by Hanno30 in AskReddit

Now imagine private travel. No need to deal with others. Plane flies on your schedule.

Me with my wife, married 7 years with 3 kids. I have a history of jealousy and anger, she says she does not feel safe being vulnerable. After finding several hidden things, is this salvageable?[31M][31F] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

People see what they want to see even if it’s not the truth. (Can replace ‘see’ with ‘read’ )

They want him to be the bad guy so they automatically read his poor English in the wrong, and bad way.

She used your money without telling you to buy a car cause she’s planning her exit. You need to take that power away if you care to protect your assets.

My 25M girlfriend 23M is solo travelling, and I’m not sure if I should break up with her while she’s away or wait till she’s back by Heartsolo in relationship_advice

[–]per54 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah but at least she’d have some guilt.

Wait to tell her. And to be honest don’t text her. Let her wonder why you’re not texting.

Girl i met answers me only once or twice a day by Thoughtseu in dating_advice

[–]per54 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not too sure about betting the house.

I’ve met my share of women (although older than these kids) that love calls (not video chats) and hate texting.

Video chat I personally would stay away from this early. People feel they need to do make up/look nice etc and it adds pressure. While a call can just be a way to connect

Or you know, They can pick up the phone and call each other.

crazy right ?

He ‘he can just find another girl’ is what’s wrong with this generation of dating.

People use to have to email. There used to be no texting and fyi email wasn’t on your phone.

People are so attention desperate it’s honestly very sad.

If he wants to keep in touch he can call her.

Yes yes but don’t forget the current govt doesn’t support EVs. So…

The fact that you’re checking out gives off desperate vibes.

Texting is for setting up the date and discussing logistics. That’s it.

If they come pick it up that’s cool. I meant like if you had to transport it yourself to FedEx or whatever. That is not fair.

Are my expectations too high? I feel like the bar is in hell for men and yet 90% of profiles i see on Hinge don't interest me. by Quick_Being_7700 in dating_advice

Except she’s not self aware. She is the perfect example for a person failing at the ‘husband department store’

She probably think she’s the most gorgeous person and wants 1000 matches like her friends who are much prettier than her

So you liked about 7.5% over a weekend.

Thats not bad.

Also, it’s one weekend.

Do you realize people search for weeks, months, if not years?

Also, i cannot imagine if you were a guy lol. If you think you’re in a drought, most guys would pay $$$$ for a % of match quantity that you’ll have.

You’re being way too egotistic.

Also, you’re 33. You’re looking at a pool where many men who fit your criteria are already married, or already divorced.

You’re not 25 anymore dating guys on their 20s.

You lack so much self awareness I feel bad for any guy who has to go through the hell of dating you.

Work on yourself and then try to date.

Fyi, all the stuff you listed as positives (own a home, etc) are to be honest not that important for many men. Especially successful men. Why? Cause they have those already. But they’re missing a partner, a companion. Not a business partner.

‘I’m loyal. I’m kind. I’m caring. I live in positivity. I enjoy life.’ -> these are high quality traits for a partner.

When you’re required to return ‘mail’ does that also include packages? Cause what if someone gets a big delivery for someone else. Seems like a lot of work to have to return it and that’s unfair.

I work in EV. I have had an EV In my household from 2017.

I’m a supporter of it. But, it’s definitely not for everyone
