Let’s face when it comes to women the “lil’ bro” makes a lot of decisions till you get burned.
Thinking about your post above even that ML I started a thread about (the one I dated) got shafted by one of her ML friends, they lend money and just don’t get it back. They think “oh she’s making money, she doesn’t need it”, but they all seem to have family OS and it’s a never ending drain on their finances. It’s even stressful for them. She’d tell me.
Look, quite a lot of the time I’d even contribute to various families overseas and I think I’ve mentioned it before. But unless you see a long term plan with a WL or ML it’s just pissing your money into the wind. I give $$$ to homeless people but the sad thing is that they’re always wanting and it never stops.
Once you start punting and if you like the flavour dating then are you going to settle down with just one? If so then can you trust her to be truthful, not even loyal as I’m not into loyalty though money can buy a degree of loyalty but being truthful is important. If so then you could give without hesitation but where do you find a truthful person?
WL’s and MLs by profession lie, lie to the punter, even simple lies such as flattery to retain a customer.
The guys on here that complain about losing a few grand so what? After a while it’s just a distant memory. Move on and make more money, making money is priority number one as it gives you the freedom to punt and not bitch about it.
