Is 50K Enough?

Good Morning!! I woke early today! When the sun is up, I'm going to sit down by the Biscayne Bay and the pool to have my coffee!! This is what I do until my balconies are open again! So, I wasn't going to tell this story, but after a weird dream last night...I decided that I am going to!  A couple weeks ago a friend request came in on Facebook from someone who I thought I might have known, so I approved the connection.  Then, when he started chatting me, it became clear that he did not know me...but he seemed ok, and wanted to get to know me...was a 30+something year old good looking guy, just with facial hair, which rarely attracts me. 

Then he started off by chatting me all the time, which I really don't have time...telling me of his high position in some Inter-national shoe company, which 1 of my daughters used to work for, and I'll tell you who it is, just as soon as they are advertising on my blog!! But anyway, first he started sending me pictures of shoes...stillettos...which were beautiful, but this was a little funny to me, because, although I love high heels, at this stage in my life, I won't be wearing stillettos...but I only responded to about 1/10 of his text messages, so this quickly got him to offering me a $5,000 shopping sprees for shoes!  I still was not real interested, though, because the guy was not in my serious dating age range, and lives in NY...I always tell men who ask me out, when you are in Miami or better, South Beach, we will talk, but until then, I'm sorry, but I really don't have time to be texting you or answering your texts all day, and becoming your pen pal.  This quickly spurred him on...to a request for the weekend with me for $50,000. 

Ok, now, that is a nice offer, but I was a bit perplexed...sat on this one for a couple days before responding...First off, ok, I can use 50K...who couldn't??? ...does that mean I have to be intimate with him for 50K? Or does he just want to experience my company for 50K? And then on the other hand: Is that all I'm worth?? 50K??? He wasn't really clear, and he kept texting me all day long, like it was driving him crazy that I would not respond. But, then, what I didn't want to admit was that if I accepted this offer, that would make me no better than a hooker...a woman who gives out sex for money.  I kept thinking when I do meet a quality special guy, whom I want to spend the rest of my life with...what would he think if he knew that I accepted an offer like this? Then, his final text to me was to tell me how well endowed he was ...As soon as I realized that he offered no real value to my life...long term, I responded to his myriad of texts messages and the unanswered phone calls with one simple message: "I am not for sale."  Then I blocked him.
