A word of acknowledgment…

[Jarrod_Uncut]

No attempt to ingratiate myself, but I figure I can at least mention it.
 

Some times I’ll say things, and it may come across unintended. Or it’s meant to just be a figurative reference to something. It doesn’t necessarily mean “all” or everyone. It’s only as it applies to particular scenarios I’m discussing.

Other thing being, I’ve been going thru a difficult time in my mid 30s…and there’s been a lot of ambivalent and borderline toxic people in/out of my circle. There’s no reliability in my “fuck buddies”, I haven’t had a legit boyfriend now in years (not that I can’t be whole without one but: if I did have one, I could subtract fuck buddies out the equation), feeling incompatibility with where I reside, and family has been working my nerve.
 

Add to it often missing/losing clients because I can seldom take short notice bookings, that many in my area seem to desire. Not to mention the almost weekly passive aggressive kind of behavior that comes thru my phone (yesterday had someone tell me $250 is “too much to pay for some dick”) Which I know is typical opinionated tactics because I was blessed with twice that amount the next day.

Had another telling me “I’ll pass” when I mentioned I couldn’t see him right now, but could later on tonight (my ads all specify couple hours or more notice). Wasn’t sure if he passed because of that or my rates, but not sure what he passed on in the 1st place because he contacted me first. I wasn’t propositioning him 🤷🏾‍♂️ 

The main way to get a break from these things lately is to travel, but as I’ve discussed before: that isn’t without hurdles of its own. But it’s been helpful.

Dealing with this regularly, I find it makes me want to vent more and post things some may feel comes off negative. But I told someone the other day: By all means offer advice and suggestions where you see fit. If I can implement it, great. If it can’t be applied to a particular situation: thanks but, don’t let it get you down.

But going forward, I’ll try to contribute more to reading/answering other’s threads and questions instead.

Thanks, I’m trying…bit by bit. 
 

And today I checked out the hotel at 1 p.m. and nobody even knocked on the door (made sure I requested it).

I was in bed til 10:30 a, damn caffeine drink and evening workout had me up all night watching porn and Alexa music 😂

I am mature and experienced in life enough to understand that we are different people and that we process our life events the best we can and in different ways. I put my money where my mouth is when I say that I welcome diversity, and that includes diversity of thoughts.

I have liked some of your insights in other people's posts.
