My boyfriend grew up with maids in the family. He sometimes still has the maid trim his nails...
Otherwise he goes to a nail salon to get it done. I don't know what to make it of it.

Fine when you’re five, weird as hell as a grown man

I’ll say this. Thank god he’s the type of man that takes care of his hands because....a lot of men don’t 🥴. It’s a quality that should be admired!
Also when I first read this I was weirded out, but don’t some of us still go to the same hairstylists or professional groomers that we’ve known for years?

He's joking asking if I'd trim it for him as an act of affection... Of course he knew I wouldn't. It didn't sound weird when he told me he had it done at the salon but somehow it's weirding me out the maid

Has he learned to trim his own nails now or is he quarantined with his maid? I have so many questions

That young master lifestyle. But truly, if something was the norm for him as a child, he probably thinks nothing of it continuing into adulthood. I don’t see anything wrong with that sort of platonic intimacy.
Like I can curl my own hair, but when my roommate offers to do it, I love it because I feel spoiled and close to/cared for by another person.

I grew up with maids and I’ve been trimming my own nails ever since I could? It’s fun and relaxing to cut, shape, file myself - don’t think anyone else can do it better or get them to exactly how I want them

Guys, I am APHR certified and practiced Organization Development for several years and I still had problems getting a new job after migrating to the USA. I have been researching and learning and what I found out was to switch career minimum; needed is education (first not not certification to show you have practiced new skills). This will lead to new skill sets which will lead into more experience.
