2024.05.14 11:33 ToraAkira AITAH for blocking my date after he was being racist?

Context: I had gone on a few dates with Felix (fake name) prior to this one, and they were all really great. And till this point, there nothing negative about him at all. Even though we are in the same uni, we are in different departments and different dorms, so until our date I have never seen/interacted with him. My friend/roommate (Evelyn/fake name) is the one who set me up with him (this will be important later).
On our 4th date, we had gone to watch a play at our local theatre, and we had a great time. We were going to get an uber back to our dorms when I suggested let's get some dessert, so we can end the day on something sweet. So we went to an ice cream shop and were standing in line to order.
In front of us was a couple with their baby, and the dad was holding the baby over his shoulder, so the baby was looking at us. The baby was giggling and waving so I waved back and the couple turned around. We had small talk, and during this Felix was quiet. He didn't talk to them and he looked uncomfortable. I wrapped the convo quickly as I noticed this. I though maybe he doesn't like kids or something. The couple left, we paid for dessert and left. As we were walking to our spot for the uber, I mentioned " the baby was very cute," He muttered a small yes, I didn't care too much for his reaction and was scrolling on my phone while we were waiting for the uber. Our converstion then transpired like this.
Felix: The kid's dad is black while the mum is asian
Me: Huh? I mean yes?
Felix: That's a shame
Me: What do you mean that's a shame?
Felix: Why did she have a kid with a black dude? There are other Asian guys out there yet she goes for black men
Me: I had no words, I was speechless
Felix: Look, you don't get it, I have trauma from this. My ex gf was also stolen by a black guy
Me: What are you going on about? What does your ex gf being "stolen" have anything to do with that lady and her family.
Felix: You don't understand, asian men have to deal with this all the time. All the asian girls like either white guys and black guys.
Me: I was dumfounded hearing this, he was sounding like a red pill podcast You may have had bad experiences in your dating life but that doesn't mean you can be hateful and rude towards random people or generalise an entire group of people because one person was wrong towards you. You are being racist and I don't think I have it in me to deal with this. I think it may be for the best if we don't keep in contact.
I ordered a separate uber and left. I blocked him and left it at that. When I came back to the dorms, I was visibly upset and my friend asked what happened, so I told him. Somebody must have overheard and now our entire dorm knows he's a racist. Evelyn now is angry at me for blocking him and spreading this situation.
I told her what happened and she said well he has trauma so maybe that may have been a response to it. I said you are stupid if you think I'm going to waste my time dealing with a racist, when there are other people I can date. She said he's a good person and that I should give him a second chance. She's trying to rally our other friends to convince me and thankfully they are not putting up with her bs.
But then Felix's friends reached out to me and said he's had a difficult life and that's he doesn't mean what he said, and now people are harassing him for being a racist. I'm now so annoyed at this entire situation.
So AITAH for blocking him?

2024.05.14 11:32 Ben10-fan-525 Which outfit is to you better?New vs Old.Pros and cons.

Yes we didnt see it fully yet but we have images to go off of(also its fun to compare the two).
My thoughts on both outfits:
Pros of new thief outfit for Kazuma:Its more skimpy like thief outfits are in Konosuba(like ones Iris/Chris and Megumin had).I dont see why male thiefs cant wear the same.It still looks cool and changes very little.It has scarf and gloves with mask combo still.
Cons of the new thief outfit for Kazuma:Its not as practical as all blackish outfit of Volume 6 and will surely be used way less then the original because..Konosuba will surely take forever to animate fully.
Pros of old thief outfit for Kazuma:Its classic/sleak and original look.Its practical in that its mostly all black and fits him sneaking in the shadows.Also it has been in countless Volumes from Volume 6-8 to even Megumins continues Explosion spin offs and other side storys.
Cons of old thief outfit for Kazuma:It has kinda less details.I know its good for thief jobs but it has less detail compared to new outfit.Like as much as I like old outfit..it just looks less cool as mostly black.

2024.05.14 11:31 Adventurous-Split914 1 month palang, terminated na šŸ„¹

Iā€™ve been working in the BPO industry for over two years, handling purely healthcare accounts. I resigned from my previous company last February due to the very low salary and constant queuing. I got tired of the continuous calls and resigned without any backup plans. My previous company offered a 21k package, so I demanded at least 30k from the new company I applied to, given my experience. They agreed to the 30k package, but I only experienced it for one month.
I moved from the BPO to directly reporting to the client. The client from Michigan hired two of us, but he was Arabic. He trained us himself, but after only one week, he started assigning us tasks continuously until May 8.
After our lunch break, our manager suddenly called us in, and the Operations Manager and HR were also there.
Ifelt like I was doused with cold water when I read what was written on the paper. It stated that we did not meet the client's expectations, etc. The final score he gave us was 2.3, which is failing since the passing score is 3.0. He gave a quality score of 1.0, even though we were tasked with clearing all their clinic's backlogs from 2019 to the present. At 3 AM, my colleague and I were sent home. It was both embarrassing and infuriating because we were treated like dogs, just sent out like that. This experience has been very traumatic for me. I deeply regret accepting this offer and declining my other job offers last March. Now, I have to start over again. I havenā€™t even paid off my debts, and it looks like they will increase again. Hays!

2024.05.14 11:31 Ok_Connection_2379 Neighbor hinting Iā€™m not a ā€œfull motherā€ because Iā€™ve only had one child so far.

We live in a lovely neighborhood with a lot of families who we see every day at the bus stop, playing outside, walking from school, etc. Iā€™m having my second baby after seven years - I had a serious illness that kept us from having more children for a long time and we thought we couldnā€™t have anymore kids, so this just feels like a huge miracle.
Weā€™re the only family in our neighborhood who has had an only child. All the families know about my illness (I was basically dead and in and out of the hospital getting treatments for like 1.5 years, followed by a long recovery). Almost everyone has been wildly supportive and kind.
However, one of the couples we see makes CONTINUOUS comments about us ā€œfinallyā€ having a second baby, constantly hinting that we have ā€œno ideaā€ what parenthood is like because weā€™ve only had one. On Motherā€™s Day I sent a group text to all the moms, saying ā€œlove you ladies - so fortunate to be in a neighborhood with such great moms!ā€ Everyone else wrote back kind texts to the whole group. This mom felt the need to single me out and say, ā€œ[my name], soon youā€™ll actually understand the joys of motherhood that come with breaking up fights all day!ā€
Please bear in mind that I do or say ZERO things to instigate these comments - I NEVER compare parenting and in general I have a ā€œyouā€™re doing great, parents need to support one anotherā€ attitude. It also was a massive trauma to be infertile for several years, and it took emotional work on our part to accept and be happy that we might only ever have one child. Having a second now feels surreal, itā€™s so wonderful, and itā€™s so crummy that this couple feels the need to put us down all the time.
My question: do I say something about these comments? One or two would be easy to brush off but itā€™s honestly every day at this point. The Motherā€™s Day text made me really sad because itā€™s likeā€¦ Iā€™ve been a mom for seven years. I wanted to have more kids much sooner and went through hell to get to this place. And why am I being singled out as ā€œoh just you wait until you ACTUALLY understand motherhoodā€ texts on a friendly, supportive group text?

2024.05.14 11:31 JadedNostalgic "Husky mix" lol

So my girlfriend had a dog who she adored that passed away a few months before I met her a year and a half ago. When we met I had 3 huskies at the time (because I needed backup vocalists for my Acapella band), all rescues, and she sort of fell in love with them. Since we have been together, I lost my oldest boy to an injury, but hadn't thought about getting another pup, as my other two are bonded to me really hard.
A few months ago she mentioned to me how she has been thinking about getting another dog. I told her I thought it was a good idea. It had been about 2 years since her girl passed and she was ready to start the healing. So I start looking at the shelters, local social media groups, and rescues and keep sending photos of pups to her.
A few weeks ago I learned that my great aunt passed and so I had to go to her funeral. At the same time, my gf had a trip planned to visit her parents a few states away, set for about a week after I get back.
I take my girl Hannah, as she needed some 1 on 1 training with me and leave my other boy Viktor at home with gf. She messages me and says she asked to see one of the pups I sent her a link to. A few days later she has an appointment to see a completely different puppy, a 6 month old husky. She sends me pictures later in the day of this cute little 12 week old pup who won her over instead.
Her litter mates definitely had some husky features like the mask or spitz tail, but then there's this girl who looks nothing like a husky lol. She's 14 weeks old right now and her ears just started standing up and I swear this dog is a malinois.
Girlfriend took off after having the pup for about a week, so I ended up getting stuck with this poor pup who didn't understand what was happening (just like poor Viktor when a new pup showed up in the house while I was away). He was beyond pissed when I got home lol. It took him like 2 days to forgive me for allowing this to happen.
I've raised probably a dozen puppies in my life so far and this girl was, putting it mildly, an absolute terror when gf took off. For the first 2 days I didn't have even 2 minutes to myself. That said, in this week I've had her, I've come to love her and we've reached an understanding. I'm not going to say I didn't love her or wasn't going to love her, but we just didn't have that bond at the beginning. After all, she picked my girlfriend, not me, which is what the gf wanted. She wanted a "her" dog, which is to say a dog that either prefers her or is bonded with her, as my dogs clearly prefer me and follow me around/stay near me when I'm away from her.
We've gone from screaming in the car endlessly while solo to riding with the other pups happily and riding solo happily. We've gone from accidents in the house to her telling me she wants out, from maybe 6 accidents a day down to 1. We've gone from zero leash experience to wearing a harness happily and fundamentals of leash walking, though she just stays by my side at all times regardless. We've gone from chewing on bad things to chewing on good things. From not understanding of dog play to playing with both my pups. From no training at all to sit, come, stay, and we're working on shake hands. She even learned the "load up" procedure for the car from the other pups.
I've never seen such a smart puppy who is motivated entirely by wanting to make me happy. She likes food, but it's secondary to praise for her. I'm absolutely stunned how fast she is learning. None of my huskies took to instruction this well, though they were older when I adopted them.
Which leads me to the subject line. Man, there might be some husky in there, but I sure don't see it. We only know the mom was part husky. We're getting a DNA panel done so we know what to prepare for; I'm used to high energy/working dogs but I hear malinois is a whole other ball game. I thought maybe she looked more like a GSD but the vet said the ears looked more like malinois than Shepard or husky ears and I don't disagree.

2024.05.14 11:30 HeroSpear Do you see friends and family getting hit by life hard as the years go by?

As I got older I am seeing more and more of my friends and family get hit hard by life. Just by looking at them I can see the years adding up not through just aging. Like some gained a lot of weight when they use to be super healthy. Some looked like they aged much faster than others, I am guessing it's due to stress maybe or lack of sleep. Like there was this one girl I rememeber back in high school, use to be like the best looking probably in the school. Then 10 years later, my goodness she gained a lot of weight, didn't recognize her anymore more stories like that too for other people I know.

2024.05.14 11:29 saviio12 What were you guys opinions on Kinkoi Golden time "true route"?

So I've just finished going through Kinkoi and it's fandisc in the last two weeks and was extremely happy with the game, I normally don't like stories that are more focused on comedy and with not many stakes in play, but I really thought that it was done incredible well and it became one of the best things I've read in a while!!
But after finishing the fandisc it got me really conflicted, I absolutely loved Rias route on Kinkoi, the ending was incredibly sad with a tinge of bitter sweetness and I thought it was all handled amazingly, and right after finishing it I already knew that there was a "what if" scenario on Golden time so it got me pretty excited to read it.
Now after reading it, I'm really conflicted on what to think because I really ended up hating "Maria's" route.
Spoiler ahead
The entire conflict that happened on the second half felt so weird to me, the idea of Ria hiding that she was pregnant and deciding on leaving for an entire year with her almost certainly knowing that she'd probably die when giving birth felt super weird, the game did talk about how Ouro would most certainly be opposed to putting her at risk and having the child but I feel like keeping it a secret and breaking the promise of "spending all of her remaining time together" felt really selfish in a way. I don't think that It would be a stretch to say that there could be a possibility of talking Ouro in to still trying to go on with the pregnancy, especially because he does value Ria's happiness over anything else in the main game's route, and keeping the child a secret, going away and spending most of the short time remaining extremely far, while also asking that after she passes Sylvie takes the role of a mother for the child when she was also keeping it all a secret from Ouro is pretty insane to wrap my head around and felt like they didn't have faith in him at all.
I wanted to see what other people thought of the route because It honestly even made me dislike some of the characters in some parts, so I was curious to see if I'm just overthinking things lol, as I said I really liked the game and it's really a shame to leave this whole thing on a low point.
There's also the fact that after finishing Muv Luv alternative (which is obviously a pretty different situation) I really started to hate the trope of "keeping the main character completely blind about something extremely important that's happening" and I though that it was done in a pretty bad way here, especially when a similar situation on the main game's route was handled much better
Sorry for the big wall of text and bad formatting, I'm normally too shy to post anywhere but I really wanted to see some other opinions about this!!

2024.05.14 11:29 LittleFortune7125 The big boys

Salones Are the perfect organisms standing a solid Three feet bigger than their next next comparable Species. With razor sharp claws that can cut through the strongest medals with ease. In reaction times so quick they leave others in the dust.
This specific one was sent on a assassination mission to kill the Ambassador to a meeting of meeting of the leaders of the galaxy.
He torned his way through the Roof of the transit truck. an especially large one , caring , probably dozens of lesser species. Scraping his way through the roof and couldn't wait to tear into the lesser species.
Only to hear words that will be stuck with him for the remainder of his life , which was very short.
"That's A Huge fucking rat"
Looking up rapidly he saw four gigantic beings standing easily three feet taller than even himself.
One of them grabbed A metal seat bolted to the floor using the strongest aluminum there is. And wripped it out and threw it at him Thinking as quickly as he could he jumped out the way only for a Buton to hit him in the side of the.
Bone teeth and flesh tore away from the side of the these four giants proceed to squish the giant rat flat
The video abruptly stops
And this class is why you don't fuck with humans. Well being laughably slow take several minutes to do geometry not even inside their own head.
They are by far the most physically stronger race there is. Barely having enough Intelligence to get off their shit hole of a planthat we did not expect much I'm the mess of species.
Until their physical attributes came into play coming from more the highest density planets That can support life close enough.And the goldi lockstone to have enough energy To host gigantic creatures the entire planet is home to giganticism of every form.
The standard Humans stands around 5'10. The galactic average is 1'4.
Having extremely dense muscles that require a certain amount of energy, humans are somehow always hungry.
Everything about a human is gear towards physical strength. Do keep in mind this when you're next to a human. As too I were going over.This species specifically in history class.
There involvement in the Salones war Is not able to be put into words how vital they were towards victory. The Salones Come from the most vicious death world in the Galaxy. They are the perfected Organisms to survive on just about any planet. Normally being able Is tara part any other species with their bare limbs.
Until humans came along all that perfection organism went out the window when you're getting hit in the face like something that can fold aluminum in half and laugh about it.
There's planets high gravity headline to a variety of materials.Rarely available to them to use. Aluminum is nowhere near the strongest material on their planet. In fact the Is their skeletal structure incorporates metal.
This also means that conventional weaponry was not an option for them instead of using the regular air pressure system that's commonly used to day.
They invented a chemical system which releases at such high speeds. It's close to the sound barrier. Even then that's not a guaranteed kill.
Pausing a moment seeing the class Was not Paying much attention aside from the jocks.
How about I play you video Just demonstrating how strong they are
booting up a video on the class projector she proceed to show a video of young human Probably five running in front of a fire Range by accident.
Weaponry that shot compressed air with plastic Spheres going at great speeds went down ranged and hit the cash straight in the head.
Many of the class yelled not wanting to see a young child die.
They are very quickly science.Doing the young child cried for its mother and she came barnching off the child saying that's what he gets for not listening to her.
The child was picked off the floor barely even bleeding.
The class professor then showed airsoft matches demonstrating that what they consider. Deadly weapon was nothing more than a More mature toy for them.
Should I make more is this good?

2024.05.14 11:29 Sedoor_ The Third Listener Enemy

Okay, so what if thereā€˜s an enemy called ā€žthird listenerā€œ and he shares one similarity with the ghost girl: He doesnā€˜t hunt the most parenoid Player in the lobby but he hunts the player who makes the loudest noice or talks the most while being in the facility?
This would make players think twice if they wanna scream after their lost friends and makes them use their voice more careful.
After a while of talking very loud or very often, the player could hear a sound, similar like a wispering or something. And now the player knows that the third listener is keeping an ear for him.
The third listener could also be a enemy that crawls in the ceiling but thats not very important to the whole concept tho. What do you guys think?

2024.05.14 11:29 luxaster Things I learned from doing my second šƒ„ sample

I have mild-moderate coprophobia (autism and also likely OCD) that is slowly receding due to my having UC. My first sample was a small vial; this time it was 2 big vials and 2 culture vials. This time I only gagged after doing all the stuff, which is better than last time. Even if it took 10 minutes.
It's a bit annoying that they don't give us a pamphlet or something our first time.
My pair of non-guaranteed, hopefully-less-obvious tips:
Listen to music. I think this helps because it fills up a fair bit of your sensorium and so leaves less brain-power for gross sights/smells/textures. Try something a bit peppy, maybe? I listened to the 3DO Star Control II soundtrack.
Wearing a face mask (or two) and gloves is a no-brained, but keep extra gloves handy. Don't be like me, needing to fill four vials, realizing my second pair of gloves are also soiled and having to go find the box, which we keep in the living room for some un-godly reason. I recommend getting out as many pairs as you have vials, plus one. You can always put them back. Oh, and check to make sure your gloves are unsoiled before you put the vial in the baggie. Ask me how I know.
Now, if any of you know how to make me feel like my hands are actually clean, please share. I feel like Lady Macbeth.

2024.05.14 11:29 Twattybatty RIP Berryl

I started the campaign again, for the umpteenth time, and I'm having such a blast. I took my time, followed layout guides and videos (me being a casual player of this title) and began to make copious amounts of money, really fast (thanks SOAP trade!).
I saw that Berryl had begun to wage war on Willy. She was conquering his home island. Me being a majority share holder on HER main island, in the old world, made it so satisfying to make my next move. It made less sense financially, to take over, but was so satisfying to do. She was about to eliminate my ally! Then as his last island was at breaking point, bang! Her main island is reduced to nothing and belongs to me. She, then, declared war, but I just kept patrolling/ escorting trade vessels with bigger and badder ships. I also kept buying/ conquering anything she laid claim to.
I've never been in this position before. Normally I go for a calm game and take the fight to her when we're the only two left. This time, however, she is struggling to branch out. She has random airships hovering in the middle of Cape Tralawney and the old world, unable to do much, and her ecoonomy is flat-lining. LOL.

2024.05.14 11:28 theamatrwriter Why my mindset destroyed my first novel and how I changed it

Two and a half years ago, I started working on my first fully complete novel. A little background info: besides a 16k-word story on Wattpad, Iā€™ve never finished anything. Which is why it was so important to me to finally finish a novel so I could publish it. From the get-go, I was obsessed with the story and spent hours and days researching scientific concepts and details and working on the plot and the characters. It took me a while till I actually started to write the first words of the novel. I started the first draft in October 2021 and up until November 2023, I wrote 37,193 words. Initially, I was proud but soon after starting the progress stagnated. The problem: I wanted to make it perfect. Iā€™m a perfectionist by trade. So when I set out to write my first complete novel, I wanted to write one of the best novels out there. I wanted to impress publishers so theyā€™d be blown away by my talent. I wanted to prove to myself that I could write a story and get it published. I wanted the novel to be a success. I wanted to write the perfect story. Of course, I was set up to fail. As a young writer in my 20s, I know I still have lots to learn. Even though Iā€™ve been writing since I was eight years old I donā€™t know how to actually write well. I made lots of mistakes besides wanting my story to be perfect. Not only did I spend way too much time editing and plotting from the get-go, but I didnā€™t know that the first draft is supposed to be crappy. I didnā€™t understand why the first draft needed to be crappy which is because you need to get down the story as fast as possible to see if it works. I ignored that. I wanted the science behind everything to be perfect. I couldnā€™t start writing before I knew that what I was writing about was about 95% accurate. Even for a sci-fi writer, thatā€™s terrible. Research for a sci-fi novel is essential but it can easily get out of hand. Not only did I do incredible in-depth research, I couldnā€™t start before I validated every single detail. How is this bad? It takes time and wastes momentum. And that sabotaged the story. Not only was I perfectionistic about research but also about how I wrote. As a writer in my 20s, I might have great sentences or even passages in my first draft but besides that, my writing will not be perfect probably not even good especially not in the first draft. But I didnā€™t see that. I ignored the fact that writing evolves over time and that probably no writer writes an amazing first draft. I mean what for? If the first draft is just there to tell yourself the story and check if itā€™s working then why would I waste any time on perfecting the writing since I had to rewrite it anyway? For a long time, I also didnā€™t know that I didnā€™t have to write my novel in order. As a perfectionist, it seemed logical to start on page one and write till I reached the end. This concept is shit! Days and weeks went by in which I didnā€™t write. When I realized that I was doing a lot of things wrong it was already 2024 and I havenā€™t worked on my novel for over 2 months. But then something changed. I realized all thatā€¦
- Perfectionism kills your story. - Donā€™t research too much at the beginning. - Write it down as fast as you can. - Ignore the order of scenes. - First drafts are supposed to be crappy. - Rules donā€™t apply to the first draft. - You can write any way you want. - Progress is better than perfect. As soon as I realized that I needed a fresh start. I wrote an outline for a story I had in my mind for several years. It took me two days to write the outline and then I started to the first draft. I set my goal to write 300 words per day which I normally exceeded. With my current novel, an action-thriller, I wrote over 40k words in 3 months. Compared to the last story I started that means I made roughly the same progress I had made in two years, now in three months. This time, Iā€™m wasting no time trying to be perfect. I want to know if the idea works or if it doesnā€™t. I donā€™t care about perfect sentence structure, great internal monologue, or amazing dialogue. Sometimes my writing sounds more like a screenplay, other times itā€™s more fleshed out, and some days itā€™s utter crap. I write what feels good on the given day and I write the scene that feels right that day. I still love the idea for my original sci-fi story and I know that I will write it one day because I want to tell the MCā€™s story but for now, Iā€™ll work on my debut novel and plan to finish the first draft by the end of the year, maybe even earlier. So what did I learn? Perfectionism is going to kill your story. I know it killed mine.

Believe it or not, you have a potent weapon to drive men crazy! The success of NYC female escorts depends on many factors, but everything starts with your smile. Find out why it is that in this article. Escorting is a set of highly complicated elements that can work in terms of high or very high earnings/receipts for a model. High-end escorts in NYC do not have jobs suitable for any person because, just as well, not everyone can be a programmer or plumber. You must meet specific requirements to be successful in this field.
The list can go on endlessly, but these are the main qualities that female escorts must have to be successful:
  • Pleasant physical appearance,
  • Pleasant personality,
  • A good knowledge of English and maybe some French,
  • Perseverance and ambition,
  • Strong desire for personal development,
  • Stress resistance,
  • Patience and empathy,
  • A good understanding of male psychology,
  • Adherence to a constant work schedule,
  • Responsibility.

All Women Can Do This Job

Did you know that every woman has a "weapon" at hand that can drive men crazy? It is part of the arsenal of flirting techniques, and you will understand what attracts a man to a woman. It's about smiling. Any man is conquered by a smile that lightens his frowning forehead from so many worries or frustrations, and this is perhaps the most crucial criterion from a variety of tricks with which to drive the men who look at you crazy. In this field, high-end escorts in NYC need to be energetic, always with a smile on their face.
Yes, NYC female escorts are also human and have their problems, but the members who visit your room should not see this. That's not why they are there, and if you show them an inappropriate attitude, you will lose them for good, and consequently, your earnings will decrease. Men date companions for many reasons, and frustration is one of them. Every man has a frustration of whatever nature. Maybe his life partner doesn't fulfill his fantasies, or he's having other thoughts anyway; it isn't easy to quickly find out what men want.
The fact is that a man wants to date you, and of course, he has a purpose, and you have to find out somehow what this is to know how to solve his problem. Once you succeed, you will win a loyal client who will return to you often. From this moment, you have added something extra to your earnings. Repeating this method for several clients, not only those from NYC but all of them, no matter their country, will increase your client base and result in positive results for your account.

Lack of a Social Life

Many men do not manage in society; they are more withdrawn and prefer to avoid physical contact with any person. In the end, they are still human, and they solve their need for interaction by getting in touch with high-end escorts willing to pay large sums of money to have one-to-one discussions with one of them. The idea is to manage to attract such a group of people with exciting topics, inoculating him with the idea that he will have privacy with you and that everything you discuss remains confidential.
Dissatisfaction with their physical appearance is also something often found in clients. Let's face it: nobody is perfect. Neither women nor men are perfect. Flaws make people human, which is a fantastic human characteristic. The problem is that many do not understand this and wish to be someone other than they are. Many are dissatisfied either because they are fuller, or because they are too short or too tall, and so on. With a simple smile, you drive away all these frustrations and make them feel comfortable, relaxed, and willing to pay for moments spent in your company.

What Not to Do as an Escort

It is not so easy, and that is why female escorts need to resist stress, patience, and empathy. All this, combined with personality and physical appearance, leads to success. There are also things you must be sure to avoid if you want to have many clients. You may have also seen other models who display a cold attitude and are indifferent to what is happening or others who spend all the time with their clients with their eyes on their mobile phones. All these gestures reject the clients, and the models have less and less income.
When a model from NYC complains about low earnings, the fault often belongs to the above reasons. By comparing the examples above, imagine the positive impact of an energetic, cheerful model who constantly communicates with her clients and pays attention from the first time her client approaches her. Here is why the smile matters enormously through all it represents. All this information, which you can also consider tricks or secrets for increasing earnings, will help you become a top escort. Those who end up earning more money are sure they pay attention to their clients.

A Model's Personality Can Influence its Earnings

One of the most frequently encountered questions in the industry by potential models is: how much can be earned from this activity? It is a difficult question because the answer depends on many factors. Such a job is based on performance. Companions are responsible for the information and advice they choose to use. Yes, agencies will help you gain many potential clients, but they cannot guarantee the possible earnings. Several factors influence the earnings of a model. Among them are the attention the model offers, the appearance and attractiveness of the model, its personality, and many others.
Personality is the key, the most critical factor in this field, even more important than physical appearance. Being a companion means having a very interactive job and is more than undressing in front of your clients. You will interact with the public, represented by several people while going with someone to a meeting or with a single one on a date. High-end escorts with a warm, open, and eccentric personality are usually more successful than others, especially when attracting loyal clients who help obtain constant, long-term earnings.

2024.05.14 11:28 Jappe1975 Black Bear population reset?

Since the last update the black bears can have two drink times on the same map, one at night and one in the morning. Are all bears that i shoot re-spawning in the new drinking time?
I hope the pop reset is due very soon because I just find this whole situation very difficult to manage. I am no "grinder" but a run and shoot, discover feed, rest and drinking zones kind of player. And now my zones for black bear are all messed up.

2024.05.14 11:28 jellyben108 Low self esteem triggered when Iā€™m interested in someone ?

I noticed that every time I liked someone I would start feeling depressed about my appearance and I would spiral and have mental break downs . But when I go months or years without crushing on someone Iā€™m happy and not even hyper fixated on my appearance, life feels at peace . As soon as I see that one person Iā€™m interested in itā€™s as if Iā€™m having a manic episode. Iā€™ll feel like I need to lose weight , dress different just a bunch of things that are out of character for me . I donā€™t even feel like myself when these things occur. I believe a big part of the trigger is I never had a guy be interested in me who I was initially interested in . Every guy when they found I liked them would make a joke out of it or make remarks towards my appearance. Ive had two boyfriends one of them left me for his ex the other said he was ashamed of my appearance and was embarrassed to be seen with me . I stopped dating for 5 years because of that incident. Iā€™m crushing on someone right now and I feel like Iā€™m in highschool all over again and just feel like that ugly girl that no one ever wanted . I feel too old to think and be like this , what can I even do to overcome this ?

2024.05.14 11:28 WellMaintainedToyota Looking for a good-quality acoustic guitar

So I already have two guitars: an Ibanez RG6003, which I absolutely love to pieces, and an old Yamaha G-231 classical guitar that I received from my mom as a gift when I was 14. The classical was hard for me to play and honestly it made trying to learn guitar difficult, especially with how high the action is it.
I just got back into playing earlier this year, and bought my electric Ibanez. I would accredit a lot of my motivation for playing guitar to that wonderful instrument, and I've made a significant amount of progress in the two months since I got it.
So now I'm at a point where I would really like to buy a decent quality acoustic guitar, maybe with a cutaway. (Iā€™d like to play some music for my mom and dad) I've done a little bit of research but I'd like to spend around $300-$400 on one. I don't think I'm at the point where I could justify spending $1k+ on a nice Taylor or Martin (college student šŸ˜¢) yet, but we'll get there one day. What would you recommend? I appreciate your advice!
