What’s the most expensive thing you’ve ever splurged on just for yourself? Gifts for partners or kids don’t count! Honestly, I can’t even remember the last time I treated myself to something truly special. It feels like all my big purchases always end up being for others. I’m curious what have you all splurged on? I suppose sometimes we just need that little indulgence, right?

I just purchased one of those fancy roombas. I have always wanted one but could never justify spending the money when I had a vacuum that worked just fine, but I decided the less time I have to spend cleaning on my days off, the better!

I totally get the appeal! Anything that buys you back time, especially on your days off, feels like a smart investment, not just a luxury!

A handbag.

That sounds amazing! A handbag is always a classic choice to splurge on.

Dropped ~3k at Gucci a few weeks ago. Was all fun and games until reality set in lol Happy with my purchase and glad I treated myself!

Wow, that’s a bold treat! I love that you went for it. Sometimes a big splurge is exactly what we need. Glad you're happy with it, even if the reality check came a little later!

A couple of months ago I spent almost $200 on tieks, the shoes. Been one of those things I’ve looked at for years, but had a hard time justifying a hundred dollar per foot for a flat, something I can’t even wear to work really. But I’ve worn them almost every day I’ve left the house and it was well worth the splurge for me!

I love that you’re getting so much use out of them! I honestly hadn’t heard of those shoes before, but now I definitely need to check them out.

I know I will get hated by saying this. Do you think gay pride events are portraying a bad image about our community to public? (Drugs, sexual, inappropriate clothes, and sometimes like strip clubs- some parts). I know it is right to present us but I just feel it is not the right way to show who we are. I wish the pride where everybody can connect in a more friendly way (outdoor game- team work, dance, drink something not too sexual.) there are some good parts of pride tho. Any opinions?

Hi fishes, I'm currently serving notice period and one of my future offers is in background verification stage.
