Just wanted to agree with you - I’m currently “on the grind” in the entertainment industry, and for a while felt so...stupid that I couldn’t make it work the way my acquaintances did. I then found out later that most of them came from wealthy families and had independent wealth, like parents who bought them houses or…

He showed up at like 35 min in and apologized for being late, got held up at work, I gave him some shit about it.

He showed up about 35 min late and I gave him shit for being late and he apologized. Apparently work held him up. The sushi was good (as it always is - I know the owners and it’s a hidden gem).

I’m sitting in a sushi restaurant, waiting for a man that is 30 min late although this was his idea.

Thank you! And you are right - there SHOULD be a family version of dating sites for families that want to find someone and people seeking families :)

I’m estranged from my parents and still in touch with my siblings (we are relatively close) but I am so scared that I will never stop crying about it. I had a rough af childhood but some years ago my parents and I tried to build an actual relationship with each other. This was shaky but promising for a few years, to…

I read that and was like...have they ever met a man? Almost every man I’ve met is burning up (esp. in an office setting) and almost every woman is almost always cold.

Ohhh okay that makes sense now. I was feeling very “failure as a woman” as I sat there for 5 minutes trying to figure out where the blood was coming from.

Wait...where is the blood for the period coming from?!

I can’t remember what book it was from (I think it was Geneen Roth’s Lost and Found) but I remember a quote saying how the opposite of scarcity is not excess - it’s enough. Scarcity and excess are actually two sides of the same coin and excess will never cure scarcity.

The problem is, divorce takes a LONG time and on top of that, how would she even come up with the retainer needed for an attorney? At least in the state I live in, lawyers are NOT allowed to work divorce cases on contingency, so the lawyer would have to basically pro bono it. And considering the Duggar family has…

I guess I have a different view about Austin, maybe because I have a friend from a very wealthy family (like, grandma had 15 million in gambling debts and it was an “annoyance”). He could tell you immediately who was really rich and who wasn't. Maybe to us, the gaps seem smaller near the top, but when you are actually…

That’s not true. Multi-millionaires in the Austin and DFW area (and probably also Houston) are very, very different from 300k.

Oh. Oh, the pain. That is cruel.

I’m going to disagree with you on this point, only because I have met people who have listed Thomas Kinkade as a painter they like.

This is like with the Ahmed clock case where I basically found out a ton of people on FB had no idea what a demand letter entails (and reasonably so). You can make any sort of monetary demand, but that doesn’t mean Irving ISD is actually going to pay anything close to that amount (doesn’t even mean that there will be…

And it basically went like this “do you know the show Drake and Josh?”

I want to say it was Josh. The reason I don't know for sure is because the other guy (who I knew and had sexed a few times) was best friends with Josh (or drake?) IRL and texted me with this proposition.

Ugh. I get you - I once turned down a Xmas threesome between this guy and either Drake or Josh from that Nickelodeon show Drake and Josh. I had no idea wtf Drake and Josh was and still don’t really (not a Nickelodeon fan and we were all early 20s at the time), but the story alone would. Have. Been. Fantastic.
