  • Where can I find a maid for my apartment?

    My cousin has one, and he’s very average. 

    I’m looking for maybe 1 hour a week in terms of service? I’m single and like to work a lot and I don’t live with a roommate or anyone that contributes and as I get older I need the assistance. (I’m 32).

    I’m not rich, or better than anyone, but I’m asking because I don’t have a house.

    Do maids do apartments?

  • Did covid bring out the worst or the best in people?

    I personally feel a lot of companies were given the opportunity to profit off a devastating situation in a very arrogant manner. Making a donation as a tax write-off to your local hospital looks better than a YouTube video about your best staff/employees getting vaccinated. 

    There are too many unknowns.

  • Why would a guy ask to get a hotel room with me?

    I asked him to a concert, and he suggested we get a hotel room after. 

    When we got to the hotel room he wasn’t very nice to me. I didn’t like how he treated me. In fact I’m still trying to process all of it. 

    If I would have left I felt like he would have tried to hurt me-just my feeling.

    Why would a guy do this? Like why pay for a room in the first place if you just want to hurt me?

    Why show interest in the concert if you just want to make me feel bad?

    “His ex-girlfriend this...her masters degree...her this, she had a really nice condo...”

    Why try to kiss me and then tell me you need to start working out again to get hard?

  • Is being appreciative a turn-off?

    I’m a very hardworking, down-to-earth, grateful for the opportunity to work for what I have human. Many people don’t care about what they have like it’s the new normal and I’m wondering if I have a character flaw. 

    I guess another person’s trash is another person’s treasure.

  • Are my parents trying to tell me to back off?

    I’ll call my dad every now again, maybe once or twice a month to say hello.

    I ask my dad about the stock market, and what to invest in (simple, small talk). He’s been around longer so he has advice-compounding etc. (Or so I think).

    I told him I want to be able to ensure a great financial future for myself, because no one else will do that for me. It’s my life and I need to take care of myself. 

    He then mentioned me bouncing ideas off of others for ideas and such and getting a couple friends to talk to. 

    I’m not socially inept and I’m not afraid to talk to people (hello?? Yahoo answers!!).

    I was a little offended because it kinda came off like he doesn’t really like hearing from me. I’m his kid. I think he might be jealous. 

    Do you think he needs space?

  • Does anyone else sense a change in the environment?

    Maybe it’s political, but I sense an overall difference in society already. 

    I don’t know really what it is, but I think in the next 10 years we are going to see a lot of changes happen that are going to impact many lives in our society. 

    I already sense less competition, and a night out with family at a restaurant feeling normal.

  • What are ways to handle adults that behave like children?

    Sometimes, I feel like I had more responsibility, more intuition, more integrity, more of a work ethic and more in kindergarten than some adults do today.

    What happened to people building a life for themselves instead of having children? 

    What happened to consciousness?

    Family values?

    Paying bills?

  • How do you handle other people’s perspectives?

    I feel like I see things differently than the average bear and choose to make decisions other’s my age aren’t. 

    I’m definitely a future thinker. I get frustrated when I feel “hated” for making my own way.

  • How do you cut people off?

    It’s just time. I’ve grown up. I’ve moved on.

    I’ve already blocked my sister, and as bad as thst sounds, it’s helped a lot. 

    I can’t use the past to create my future. I’m ready for new relationships, friends, culture, everything.

    I knew what I leaving wasn’t ideal, but I don’t want it to come with me.

    How do you move on?

  • Are a lot of people unemployed?

    I applied for a job in my field, which is very very competitive. Obviously the position requires a degree, but 86 people applied. 86 people have a masters degree? 86 people live in the area? Are you kidding me?

  • Is it okay not to be too revealing on social media?

    I’m not into sharing personal pictures. It’s just like, kind of pointless to me. I’m a hard-worker, and I make good money. I don’t need to share things to prove that. To me, that actually makes me seem more lonely because I care about sharing my business with others

  • Why are my friends having kids?

    They aren’t married. One is divorced. All I care about is my career and myself. I know how hard I’ve had to work just at that I can’t imagine a kid. 

    Am I missing something?

  • Is the future as bad as I think it will be?

    We are living in some really interesting times. I see it getting really bad. Like really bad and I’m trying to take cover to prevent it from affecting me.

    Do you see the reality I do? Politics aside, the choices people are making are really messed up. 

    Having babies out of wedlock, lack of education, lack of ambition, mass retirement, it’s just terrible. I see it getting so bad I’m actually scared. 

    Time to make a lemon meringue pie abc watch Christmas movies on Netflix.
