Welcome to The Hub. This is our welcoming tribe dedicated to introducing yourself, meeting new people, and learning about new tribes.
Dude, we all have been there. I am not bragging but giving you perspective on how it all happens to all of us. I was in the and now a and even I was at a club a long while back trying to pull a bouncer off my friend trying to deescalate the situation when I got a baton hit from another bouncer in the back of my head. I was just stunned but the same bouncer then grabbed me by the back of my pants and belt and threw me out like garbage. I did not need a police report with my name on it so once I got up, I brushed myself off grabbed my so called friend and walked away. He was more livid but I said do you really want this getting out and trying to explain this to our supervisors? Yes it was a huge hit to our egos and self esteem but you will to learn to live with it too.
Or most likely from ex-USSR (hence "European") and by "trip to Europe" she means the Schengen zone. "no 50/50" is also very Russian-like these days. Especially the story about "I'm independent but want to feel like a woman next to a man" meaning "you'll never tell me what to do, your needs are irrelevant, but I'll expect you to cater for my whims and will call you gay/impotent if you refuse"
"Im self confident and independent but no 50/50" means "Im traditional when it comes to using a man's money but Im going to have drunk brunch every weekend with my girlfriends and never cook."
I'm looking for someone who....
"Makes a ton of money and somehow also has ALL the time in the world to spend on me and my frivolous desires, while I look cute on Instagram.... and in exchange I'll look cute on Instagram and you may even get sex twice a year" I'm independent, at least until the bill arrives!
Reading the profile, my instincts tell me there is a scammer waiting to reply to whoever messages and the scammer is filtering their potential victims to only guys retarded enough to go after gold digging 35 y/o single moms. Good scams are often designed to be obvious as to filter out people that wouldn't bite and be a waste of time. Hence typos and grand claim.
Kinda brilliant actually.

I noticed she was carrying a Dracaena plant. Also known as the Dragon Tree, it symbolizes strength, resilience, prosperity, and good fortune. It gets its name from Greek mythology (female dragon) and its red "dragon's blood" sap was used historically for magic and healing. In Feng Shui, the plant is recognized for attracting positive energy, luck, and abundance, while its adaptability signifies endurance and personal growth. In Europe, it is often called the "Tree of Happiness" and is used for creating good home atmospheres. Good luck, she's going to need it.
This is true-to-life in the sense that most of the social pressure women face comes from other women, not the evil patriarchy. The passive aggressive, snide, cutting put-downs: punishment for stepping out of line, or daring to be younger and prettier than anyone else. Hafta keep those crabs in the bucket.
Women (especially southern ones) can do this while still maintaining an outward veneer of concern and politeness. Men notice nothing.
One time my wife and daughter were on the playground with other friends, and one of the moms said to my wife (with her face full of concern), "Can I get your daughter some shoes?" What she was actually doing was questioning my wife, and therefore MY family policy about letting my daughter go barefoot wherever she dang well pleases. Instead of inquiring about this through proper channels, she assumed my wife was neglectful, too poor to buy shoes, or just a bad mother; and offered in her fakey, underhanded way to get shoes for my daughter. Small comment, but says a ton about her.
I realize most people see this on a daily basis, but it's taken me a while, not being in the south, and generally keeping myself and my family away from such women.
