@billieraebrandt: *PLEASE READ DESCRIPTION* As you may have realized by now, public speaking isn’t my strong suit. My best thoughts come when it’s just me and my notes app, sans a panel of women. This conversation in particular is one that I had a lot of thoughts on after the fact. While there are still a lot of specifics that were left unclear, here’s what we know: This women has been accepting money for years from an established businessman in increments of hundreds to thousands of dollars in exchange for HIM giving HER “business advice.” Given that context alone, my heart breaks for this man. I’d assume that somewhere along the line in his relationship history, (or current relationship) his partner wasn’t willing to take interest in his passions. So now this man has resorted to paying a woman for attention, appreciation, and friendship. It’s not that hard to take interest in your partner’s passions. I’ve used this example before, but I don’t give a rat’s ass about chess. I try to understand the basics so when @DM Dating tells me about his new ELO score on the couch after a long day, I can share in his excitement. The same goes for @dm.dating listening to me geek out over why I’m switching all of our containers over to glass this week. As cliche as it sounds, a relationship is a partnership. If the person you’re dating fails to take any interest in what makes you unique, leave. The last thing I want for anyone reading this is to end up like this man, paying for a listening ear. I pray that no many ends up like this but even if you do feel compelled to take part in something like this, please know that you have the power and free will to reject that compulsion. Do not allow yourself to fall into habits like this. Having self-respect will, on its own, command respect from others. You should never have to pay for respect or attention. #fortheboys #single #relationships #datingadvice #whateverpodcast
