hm if you calculate, even with 30 pounds x 20 people, (the lowest i've seen people tip is 25-30 pounds, for being okay with the food but dont feel the food is all that great) so 30 pounds times 20 people, that's 600 pounds a chef at home makes.

so thats pretty damn good, for anyone who is interested in enterprising at their home.

from the site:

A few months ago, the 30-year-old teacher decided it was time to put her nearly-obsessive habit to good use. She signed up on the website Bookalokal, and now welcomes strangers into her Brussels flat twice a week for lavish dinner parties.

Ribeiro charges roughly 35 euros ( $ 37) per person for what is usually a three-course meal that can last up to three hours. For Ribeiro, it’s become the perfect platform to monetise her money-guzzling obsession with buying food, trying out new recipes and organising dinner parties.

“I thought to myself that it would be a great opportunity to share my passion for food and for cooking, to meet new people and to learn new things from them,” said Ribeiro, who makes 200 to 250 euros ( $ 212 to $ 265) profit each month hosting diners. Sometimes she prepares traditional Brazilian dishes in honour of her native home, other times she’ll pair dinner courses with her favourite beers or teach classes on how to make cake pops.

Researchers say “peer-to-peer dining” is the next frontier of the sharing economy, a socio-economic system made famous by companies like Uber and Airbnb that’s built around the sharing, for pay, of human and physical resources.

I have only come to realise how sentimental Aquas could be. It comes as somewhat of an unexpected trait to find in you lot. A surprise.
Only an intuitive observer can pick up on that 🙂

You lot could hold a place, a person, or a memory and keep it forever locked somewhere in your head or heart for a substantially long period of time.

That commitment to something important or precious to you despite being somewhat of an eccentric flitting through various circles of life. It is very humbling to witness, it reminds those who know Aquas that despite the cool vibrant external shell there is something very solid and profound resting inside.

Locked away it may be but if lucky enough it could be shared with you. 🙂

Oh she has always been a kind soul. Very insightful and wise.

Nice to see you around these parts 🙂

@TheLadyScorpio
Oh, hello feby! It has indeed been a while and only recently have I come to a long overdue realisation about an Aqua I once knew so I thought to share it here.

Those infamous delayed emotional responses of Stingers, sometimes we have not processed an observation until years down the line simply because we were too busy with a flurry of other events and information within our minds.

You are far too kind and thank you. Why, you are just as beautiful inside as I remembered then. That same fiercely strong amazonian lady. 🙂

@TheLadyScorpio
She hasn't been around much lately? I do remember seeing her name way back and I agree, very insightful into the aqua sphere 🙂

There is an Aqua in her life that she loves very much, I am guessing...
click to expand

You are quite right apc, life happened and everything got much busier therefore I was not around as much, participating in the shenanigans that are always abound here. 🙂

Well I must thank the wonderful Aquas that have come into my life, so unassuming yet all at once you lot gather me up in your storm of eccentric thoughts, ideas and friends. I only wish I had more time to get to your kind better. It was always hard to keep pace with all the social commitments your kind would always uphold, and the dizzying amount of friends wore me down but the quiet moments I will never forget. Wonderful memories and I learned that great intelligence lie beneath the quirky veneer, and you care greatly for those that you hold dearest. Ah, but those moments come and go, they never seem to last long before you are back being the eccentric self that you are.

A promise is almost never forgotten and if an idea strikes you, you could remember it for years.

The emotions are not always shown and sometimes purposely held back because everyone is your friend to a degree, it had to be shared in equal amounts. Such illusive enigmas, at least to me.

She's been around for as long as I have been 🙂 perhaps even longer??
she was an integral part of the epic libra monster thread from a few years ago. That was where I got to first interact with her, and have liked her and respected her ever since.

Ah, that wondrous insanity of a Libran thread. I was merely acting as hostess and carrying forth the torch back then.

I remember those times, and meeting you there as well. It was always entertaining to have you around, you never cease to amaze me in kind.

I miss your company and all those others that were in our home turf.

No, not an Aqua in my life now but he was a part of my past.

I was lucky enough to be on the receiving end of his attentions, care and love but unfortunately it was not meant to be.

I did not return his feelings but through him, I learned a lot about your kind and was left with happy memories.

He was someone I deeply appreciated, a gentleman with me. However loving an Aqua man would have been far too difficult for me, it takes a special woman to love one. 🙂

I hear you....I dated an Aqua man for 3 years and it was not an easy ride. I have better luck with Sag men

It seems like a facade at first but its armour against the cruel world... I'm sure there isn't a moment this person you speak of doesn't stop thinking about you. That will be forever.

it rarely works from what i see...

but i notice that it is the same way with some signs too.

i can't pinpoint it. i too bring out the evil uncontrollable urge from aqua suns/aqua mars MEN combo. But then again i dont like aqua mars on men. I am fine with aqua mars with women because my best friend growing up is a cap sun aqua mars. we got along like a house on fire, with no control or issues or tension.

but when i read about the Scorpio sun/Leo moon/Aquarius mars Oscar Pistorius, with the Leo/Cap moon,Virgo venus/leo mars. I thought, hmmm he got aqua mars squaring all those planets....he must be a HAIR TRIGGER. Everything must trigger him and he will beat you up if you even joke or have fun with him. He's so SCARY. He reminds me of my ex who has a hair trigger. I thought i had or would give some compassion, earlier when i read his case, but i'm being the same ole' same ole giving chances to people who may not have been calculating cruel but have HAIR TRIGGERS.

both types are cruel. the ones who calculate evil doing and the hair trigger types. because you are responsible for your actions, and you dont kill people or punch them like that.

and Josh Brolin .. i bet he beat up Diane Lane too...which is why she left him. He was trying to control her or something.

some people are NOT meant to be together. because how come his next girlfriend he is not abusing— or the one before her? It's like certain energies make some men CRAY. but i'm not sure....it requires DEEPER understanding. maybe it's just because some women seem "WEAK" so they will try to abuse them? anyone understand this kind of psychology?

Perhaps, and I still have fond memories of what we had in the past but memories are just that, nothing more. 🙂

If what I have described above, the utter enigma that he was and the confusion he brought with him was but a facade then I felt like I would never have been able to scale it, much less comprehend it entirely so. I could deal with a man having a facade in which I could at least understand to a degree, but with him it was difficult. It is hard to describe in words and I am not usually one to be at a lost for words.

Well, he will always be remembered as a gentleman and a chapter in my book that I will forever cherish, never forgotten but his chapter is now placed away in the bittersweet part of my library. Besides, time has passed, we both have changed as individuals for that I am quite sure. Every year in life changes a person, therefore he and I are no longer the same people as then.

I am glad to have encountered such a soul and I wish him fulfilled happiness in all his endeavours, in love and life.

@aquapiscescusp

In response to your first question:

The Aqua man would want all of me but in return I knew I had to share him with the world, not just his inner circle of friends but anyone who came into his life. I would belong to him, yet he would belong to no one.

Any individual who flitters into his life automatically becomes a 'friend', and to have to share someone with such a large social circle whilst being held somewhat hostage in it (since he would have wanted to have me by his side). I simply could not do it. My inner resources would have been depleted and he was a slightly jealous/possessive man within. He may hide it well but when other within his circle made attempts to pursue me I always saw the distain and anger within him, he never acted upon it but I could sense it.

Despite the time having passed him by, he still enjoyed his bachelor days, going from one casual encounter with a woman to another. In fact, he was quite the womaniser, a fact that I always teased/scolded him about as a friend and which he often shared his thoughts with me about. That his womanising ways was merely a coping mechanism, to sate the one thing he could not have.

Back then he was always intent and eager to bring me around his family (but then again he did this with any and every one he met, it was hard to tell if you meant anything yet you knew somehow you did). Before his father passed away, I had grown somewhat close to him and he adored me, often asking for my company or requesting that the Aqua should invite me over for meals or short trips.

Yet I could not and did not quite believe he was ready to place his bachelor days behind him, there is still enough recklessness in him to make me feel uneasy, he was simply not as reliable as I would have liked him to be. As I had not said yes nor could I return his feelings, we stayed friends for a while until life caused both of us to drift a part. After his father passed away, he began to drift far far away and no longer pursued me as he once did nor did he keep the friendship as warm as it once was.

Ever since, sporadically over the years, we may have a brief cordial conversation here or there about the ongoings in our lives, a few minutes of casual conversation and nothing more.

A combination of wrong timing, a difference in needs, and unfortunate choices?

In ways, I am sure being simply who I am would have made him a happy man but I did not feel he could have made me a happy woman. Not because he is not a good man but because his way of loving was too foreign to me and it would starve me of what I knew I truly needed in order to thrive. He was not an emotionally expressive man.

@TheLadyScorpio

That is often my biggest worry for the man I am dating. He's very affectionate when we're by ourselves, or tucked into a corner in public. But I'm always getting text messages, FB clings, Meet ups. We did a painting and wine class together where I spent a majority of the time ignoring everyone and focused solely on my canvas like a stalker to prey, while he spent a lot of it staring at me work.

But I remember the time he was so nervous and eager to meet me for dinner, he wanted to shave his scalp, ended up going to the ER instead, and turning his bathroom into a "How to get away with murder" location.

Or the time we threw on music and built his bar table and stool together while the dog kept sitting on the instructions

Spending time playing board games where I am falsely accused of using low cleavage to distract my opponent.

I remember those times and I feel settled, happy and in love. I want to provide the same feeling, I just don't know if it's enough to want to, I don't know if I'm loving him the way he needs it.

I just found out another piece to the puzzle.

I'm 3rd decan scorp rising. Aka cancer moon decan 😐

THIRD DECAN of SCORPIO Rising (20.00 - 30.00 degrees)

The sub-influence of this Cancer/MOON decan can induce some quite exciting and interesting characteristics. Cancer -- natural ruler of the fourth house of home, family, and security -- can cause you to be very much attached emotionally to family members. Whether for better or worse, they likely had (will have) a strong influence on the type of personality you develop.

Whether male or female, you're likely to inherit some of your mother's features which, in many instances, may not be nearly so evident until middle age or later. You will want to and should, if possible, own your own home. However, this may become a reality only after numerous changes of residence in your early years.

Appearance-wise, nearly all parts of your body tend to much roundness, even more than might already be indicated with Scorpio rising. The mutable (flexible) nature of this decan can be a blessing because it assits in modifying the sometimes too-fixed nature of Scorpio. The Moon's sub-influence can cause many personality changes and accent your emotional state so much that you may swing between pronounced emotional highs and lows.

You are very sensitive to your environment and must do all you can to select a positive and happy one if you hope to eliminate, or even minimize, those terrible emotional lows. Try to select a bright and cheerful place to live and work, as well as positive and contented friends and close associates. Restlessness may be so accented that you find it next to impossible to be still for very long.

Work on learning to relax more often. This tendency to be restless can manifest itself not only in physical movements, but also in a desire to roam geographically, careerwise and otherwise. Hopefully, you will learn early enough the importance of this: "A rolling stone gathers no moss."

Well Gennie, the only difference was this, the Aqua man that I speak of in my past, he wanted to give me the world and place it at my feet but the problem was this, it was what he envisioned the world to be and not what I had in fact wanted. He did not understand or could not understand my essence, despite the bond we were on different emotional and mental planes. He was an eccentric soul, alone yet surrounded by people all the time, to be honest I am not so sure he found himself yet hence his inability to emotional express himself well. Empathy he had, in great amounts but he simply did not know how to show that empathy towards those closest to him. I somehow always ended up feeling lonely despite sharing the moments I had with him.

I suppose caring for another was not enough, he wanted me and he thought he knew what I would want but he did not. No matter how I tried to convey it to him he could never understand. At times, these things should not be forced, communication could only get two people so far and in this instance for he and I, it was not enough.

Fret not dear Aquarian, my circumstances then was but only one example of a love that did not work and as for yours, it is something entirely different.

Does your man seem happy, have he told you or shown you how happy he is? If so, then fret not. 🙂

thank you for sharing with us your experinces and the wonderful things you have said of Aquas.

🙂
justagirl, you are most welcome and I was glad to have been able to share what I had experienced in my past.

This may be a generalisation but you Aquarians are such wonderful but at times misunderstood creatures. I wish and hope in the future to be able to befriend more of you lot. 🙂

I dunno.. i feel so silly that i JUST found out rising had decans. 😆 I am going to look more into all of this. I just thought it was funny based upon our talks about the Cancer guy and him liking Scorponic energy and my decan is Cancer.. maybe i am just reaching with that i dunno lolol

Not because he is not a good man but because his way of loving was too foreign to me and it would starve me of what I knew I truly needed in order to thrive. He was not an emotionally expressive man.
thank you for sharing 🙂

I just found out another piece to the puzzle.

I'm 3rd decan scorp rising. Aka cancer moon decan 😐

THIRD DECAN of SCORPIO Rising (20.00 - 30.00 degrees)

The sub-influence of this Cancer/MOON decan can induce some quite exciting and interesting characteristics. Cancer -- natural ruler of the fourth house of home, family, and security -- can cause you to be very much attached emotionally to family members. Whether for better or worse, they likely had (will have) a strong influence on the type of personality you develop.

Whether male or female, you're likely to inherit some of your mother's features which, in many instances, may not be nearly so evident until middle age or later. You will want to and should, if possible, own your own home. However, this may become a reality only after numerous changes of residence in your early years.

Appearance-wise, nearly all parts of your body tend to much roundness, even more than might already be indicated with Scorpio rising. The mutable (flexible) nature of this decan can be a blessing because it assits in modifying the sometimes too-fixed nature of Scorpio. The Moon's sub-influence can cause many personality changes and accent your emotional state so much that you may swing between pronounced emotional highs and lows.

You are very sensitive to your environment and must do all you can to select a positive and happy one if you hope to eliminate, or even minimize, those terrible emotional lows. Try to select a bright and cheerful place to live and work, as well as positive and contented friends and close associates. Restlessness may be so accented that you find it next to impossible to be still for very long.

Work on learning to relax more often. This tendency to be restless can manifest itself not only in physical movements, but also in a desire to roam geographically, careerwise and otherwise. Hopefully, you will learn early enough the importance of this: "A rolling stone gathers no moss."


isn't there decans with all placements? it gets very complicated. also i feel it softens when the personal planets are in a water house.
I dunno.. i feel so silly that i JUST found out rising had decans. 😆 I am going to look more into all of this. I just thought it was funny based upon our talks about the Cancer guy and him liking Scorponic energy and my decan is Cancer.. maybe i am just reaching with that i dunno lolol

i thought wow that woman has alot of knowledge on astrology, but yes, there seems to be something new all the time. In astrology i'm going slow on learning on asteroids, and comparing and looking at partners. It's very telling - i love the subject of asteroids. i just dont do it when i'm online, since i am also studying one more course online. And YES! some people have moon energy (cancer) even if they aren't dominant cancer. Something about birthdays too. That's the secret of astrology. Houses and hidden energy.

In response to your first question:

The Aqua man would want all of me but in return I knew I had to share him with the world, not just his inner circle of friends but anyone who came into his life. I would belong to him, yet he would belong to no one.

Any individual who flitters into his life automatically becomes a 'friend', and to have to share someone with such a large social circle whilst being held somewhat hostage in it (since he would have wanted to have me by his side). I simply could not do it. My inner resources would have been depleted and he was a slightly jealous/possessive man within. He may hide it well but when other within his circle made attempts to pursue me I always saw the distain and anger within him, he never acted upon it but I could sense it.

Despite the time having passed him by, he still enjoyed his bachelor days, going from one casual encounter with a woman to another. In fact, he was quite the womaniser, a fact that I always teased/scolded him about as a friend and which he often shared his thoughts with me about. That his womanising ways was merely a coping mechanism, to sate the one thing he could not have.

Back then he was always intent and eager to bring me around his family (but then again he did this with any and every one he met, it was hard to tell if you meant anything yet you knew somehow you did). Before his father passed away, I had grown somewhat close to him and he adored me, often asking for my company or requesting that the Aqua should invite me over for meals or short trips.

Yet I could not and did not quite believe he was ready to place his bachelor days behind him, there is still enough recklessness in him to make me feel uneasy, he was simply not as reliable as I would have liked him to be. As I had not said yes nor could I return his feelings, we stayed friends for a while until life caused both of us to drift a part. After his father passed away, he began to drift far far away and no longer pursued me as he once did nor did he keep the friendship as warm as it once was.

Ever since, sporadically over the years, we may have a brief cordial conversation here or there about the ongoings in our lives, a few minutes of casual conversation and nothing more.

A combination of wrong timing, a difference in needs, and unfortunate choices?

In ways, I am sure being simply who I am would have made him a happy man but I did not feel he could have made me a happy woman. Not because he is not a good man but because his way of loving was too foreign to me and it would starve me of what I knew I truly needed in order to thrive.

Lol Ya I have many books, but that didn't cover a lot of the stuff I've learned since joining DXP.
Soooo much to learn so little time!

i thought of what you wrote, that some men are womanizers because they can't have the one thing they desire? I dont know....it could be many reasons, but are you sure he just is the type that doesn't want to commit? There are eternal bachelors out there.

and these men are not looking to marry ever or commit. There's alot of them out there.
No, I am quite sure. I had know him for years, and he chased me for a greater part of those years. We were friends for a long time.

However, since his father had passed, I could no longer tell. I only speak of what I had known, people change as I had shared and perhaps I no longer know the Aqua man, the one now in present day.

Also, I have had my share of experiences with external bachelors who did not wish to commit and he did not seem to fall into the latter.

Ah, hard to say lisabethur, maybe I never knew him at all and all of this is merely a misconception but I do not think so. 🙂

thank you for sharing 🙂

you understood him better than he understood himself it seems and you probably made the right choice

there's always a reason why someone comes into our life, it doesn't mean they have to stay with us forever to have an lasting impact

Well apc, there are days when I reflect and wonder if I ever knew him at all.

If my perception serves me well then I knew parts of himself that he had yet to discover but then again I felt he had many walls erected as well.

thats very interesting. i'm just interested on why some men want to be "womanizers" ...i mean does it fulfill them?? is there a purpose? is there a desire/motive?

More Facebook posts from girls than guys. His Facebook wall consists of a bunch of girls saying, “I miss you,” “I want to hang out,” or “When am I seeing you?” Trouble!
2.He’s overly complimentary. “You have the most beautiful eyes I’ve ever seen.” “You’re gorgeous, and I don’t throw that term around lightly.” “I’ve never been able to open up with a woman the way I have with you.” If he says all of this within the first 15 minutes of the date, then he’s probably wants one thing. Yup, what’s between your legs.
3.He confuses you with other girls. Nothing is worse than a guy calling you another girl’s name. Not only do you know that there is someone else, but he also can’t even keep the two of you straight.
4.He’s Mr. Future. Unless you’re a woman who is committed to being single, chances are you’re at least open to the idea of meeting someone to eventually settle down with. Womanizers know that, which is why they become Mr. Future. “We can do this, and we can do that, and we can go here and there.” Everything is we, we, we. Womanizers know how to give us what we want, but feel no guilt when they take it away.
5.He doesn’t have platonic female friends. A womanizer doesn’t need platonic girl friends because he’s interested in all of them. You can’t be platonic if there is sexual chemistry, right?
6.He texts other girls, regularly. If he’s hanging out with you and

Charming, attentive, interested, witty, flirtatious — these are all traits of a womanizer. A womanizer knows exactly how to make a woman feel special, different from the rest, and like his one and only. The only difference between a womanizer and a good man is a womanizer acts in this manner to get in your pants, not your heart. Being able to differentiate a good man from a womanizer is not as easy as we’d like it to be, but we have you covered. After the jump, find 10 signs to help you make the distinction. But remember, even though he fits some of these characteristics doesn’t necessarily mean he’s a womanizer. Just don’t wear your heart on your sleeve; it’s always better to be safe than sorry!10 Signs He’s A Womanizer …

know him from a long time, i'm sure you understood him better than the rest. it is just strange to me that there are men who want that existence. when they could have just one woman to be with and love.

yeah i know what you mean. i myself try to inject my own personal life and my family member's relationships and their partners, and their family life, also their in laws, their friends and neighbors, our friends and neighbors..... but i try very hard to keep it private too, and strictly anonymous because i have to RESPECT their privacy and respect their friends/neighbors privacy. So i try to observe and then try to be helpful as well. I dont find alot of people on dxp doing that though, maybe only a few, so maybe their motive is not to learn and share astrology related relationships. Everyone has different motives in getting into astrology.

i was looking at some of the articles written on Ian Fleming, that spurred on the "womanizer" topic of men wanting so many women.

Of course i looked into some, and found some stay womanizers until they FIND the right one.

However there are the types like Ian Fleming, that NEVER settle down and he doesn't care. He likes it.

these are usually written from feminists who HATE mysogonists men. I dont like them either lol but i'm like, well......i can spot those womanizers so i'm not fazed at all. Its like whatever.

so i looked at what analysts /writers/ have found on his character from all his books, biographies and upbringing, background:

http://www.express.co.uk/life-style/life/449901/Dark-side-of-007-author-Ian-Fleming

Fleming's most enduring affair was with Ann Charteris, whom he first met in the late 1930s when she was still the wife of Baron O'Neill. While Fleming was having his affair with Ann, his long-suffering girlfriend Wright was killed in an air-raid in 1944 and Fleming was calling in to identify her body. "Afterwards he walked round to the Dorchester and made his way to Ann's room," records Lycett. "Without a word he poured himself a large whisky and remained silent. He was immediately consumed with grief and guilt at the cavalier way he had treated her." Lycett quotes Fleming's Old Etonian friend Dunstan Curtis who said: "The trouble with Ian is that you have to get yourself killed before he feels anything."


--


why IS that?? why does he have to have something TRAGIC for him to FEEL—?

is it because of his dominant airy planets?? he has cancer personal placements, so he has to FEEL....however the squished in gemini and aquarius dominant planets make him cold-hearted and he is nearly 40% air....

you only need 25% air to be dominant, or sufficient amount of air...

although lots of airy dominant men get partnered with other airy dominants and they are good together...however some men are just messed up maybe from upbringing?

maybe his parentage was part of the reason and being raised in such wealth?? who knows. It's like he wants to be NOTICED so he goes into daring missions and does DARING things.....

that from his career to his love life.... it seems that his upbringng, he didnt get much attention?





EDIT: or rather he feels DEAD without feeling the THRILL and the dangers....
