Repeat dates vs seeing someone new

Lifestyle creep! When your income increases, increase your automatic transfers to your investments and savings too.
It doesn't sound like you're doing anything "wrong". Not everyone has a high or even moderate risk tolerance. But yeah, most people now are taking enormous risks, and it's being glamorized like influencers and those who promote car-jacking challenges on Tik Tok.
Take for example a recent cover of Michelle Yeoh where she says she's always taken risks. It's easy to do if you have strong safety net(s) around you. I doubt she married her husband because she was attracted to his personality or looks. 🤣
There's a saying (which escapes me now) but that those who are "wealthy" don't get that by being ethical, honest, and moral. They've stepped over and likely hurt quite a few people along the way. Of course, there are always exceptions in life.
If only life and investing was as that simple.Lifestyle creep! When your income increases, increase your automatic transfers to your investments and savings too.
Or the more you make the more you poon lol
Ouch... OT feels soo bad ... i never minded that but as I grew older, it's not a thing I want anymore... Gosh I dont even commit to the regular week 😅 , especially knowing all the taxes that gets taken on employment income with the higher you go unless you're able to write them off 😞 ... i really do feel the govt taxes us hard [ but i know the social services benefits the community, however i'm sure they like to waste a lot of our money instead of fixing the root problems ] I feel miserable having to think like a person who has to skirt around the system, but "playing by the rules" seems oddly unfair when its working against you... Had a discussion about that in University how Law works... was interesting how it's "fair" but it is a capitalistic society...
LOL LOL a girl's gotta eat too right? The heavy responsibility of many mouths to feed 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
True... 🤣 ... but as a guy being safe makes me feel sad ... miserable LOL... i suppose no matter what, looking back will always make one regret and miserable ... so going to take chances and keep it changing... like the providers even if its too good to let go / change from... it can only get better since terrible or bad experiences will improve at some time...rotations with regulars and adding new spices from time to time I suppose is a better blend 🤣
Yeah I remember hearing a similar thing as well regarding wealth and integrity... i know there can be exceptions and it's sad to know it's an exception ... mind you bending rules i have no problems with anyways since policy's and rules are just gate keeping ... gotta risk it for the biscuit 😂 ... and crack some eggs while at it 🤣 but coming from a family that always preached peace etc, I wouldnt want to take / step on the small ones / honest ones since we all work for our living..
Not to derail or discuss pricing, but I think it can influence whether or not it's a repeat date or seeing new ones... eg. recently a provider returned to town and had rates raised quite high... there was a lot of interest in her before she arrived.. but now, some feel priced out including her previous suitors.. All the more reason to take chances on new ones while still new 🤓 ... will add much more happymoments and memories ...

Law of diminishing returns applies to regulars. I am going to dump the 2 I have been seeing for years. They have turned into "tired wifey". One congratulates me on how less demanding I have become now that she's "trained me" to expect less. Lackluster service ain't worth the money.
It is always a quandary whether to go with a new date or to repeat. However, I personally have found, on average, my repeat dates have been the most rewarding. I do sprinkle in the odd new date, but only after doing some very extensive research.
