I come from a millionaire father who tried to starve me to death, who left me homeless more than once... Generosity comes from my Mother's side of the family. My Granddaddy was GENEROUS and helpful, especially toward the women in the family. I have always made my own money. ...

I've never been in boyfriend/girlfriend relationships, rarely if ever been to movies, dinner, date nights, etc. The men who've bought things for me were dope boys for whom I did work, and later music artists for whom I did work. Those are GRATUITIES. I've *NEVER* gold-dug. ...

Now that I'm 46 & older men sometimes approach me, or any suitors - first of all I am Muslim & although my father is gone & male blood family members are loose with it, I do have a Wali & if you REALLY wanted to approach me, approach him. If you want to "date" me I don't do that.

All I do is work, about 18 - 20 hours a day, 7 days a week. If someone wanted to get my attention, they'd offer me a spa day or a vacation, or a masseuse to come to my home or office. That I can use. Window-shopping my services will NEVER get U any convo or interest from me. EVER

Yes, I am an excellent cook. I get paid to private chef. A "date" is most certainly not me laboring myself, creating a menu, cooking the meal, serving you AND washing the dishes. FAM...no. This is not of interest to me. If U hire me to private chef U pay the grocery, labor & TIP.

U do not get to watch me cook, I do not eat with U, is it not a date nor a quasi-date, it is a JOB. I don't like U, and U trying to lowball me on a private chef fee, is not going to make me swing in the direction of liking U. ... Music industry I give U a rate based on YOUR VIBE.

The same holds true. I Don't do much phone calls. I barely talk to my own Mama on the phone. U paying me for a consultation does not equal U getting to speak to me on the phone. Buying my services is a LEASE, a short one at that - I will work HARD, I am avail by text/email ALWAYS

Otherwise, again, I do not date. If you are seriously looking for a WOMAN, a Wife, a "stepmother" to your child/ren, a live-in cook who also is an earner as a business woman, be Muslim or Muslim-adjacent. NEGOTIATE with the Man who handles that. Don't inbox me rude b.s. I'm old.
