What would you do?

I have a relationship right now that’s pretty casual (to me). The girl is very into me. I usually bang her on her lunch break from 1-2 once or twice a week.i get to travel the world and go out with my friends partying and she doesn’t make a big deal out of it .

The problem is as a broker my job is very intense. And sometimes when I have a big deal fall through around the time she wants to see me it wears down on me.

Today I had a big deal fall through in the car on the way to see her and lost a lot of money. I was uptight as it was....and the chick told me to stop looking at my phone and started backseat driving me which is a pet peeve for me and I really lost my cool.

She ended things with me. I apologized for being an ******* her to her but she doesn’t respect my job it seems like and I told her that. It’s very hard to come straight from the office sometimes to seeing her in a matter of 30 minutes.

I told her “Sure i would probably be a better boyfriend working some **** 9-5 gig but there are things I want to accomplish and this is my career and that’s the way it is.”

Really tough to pursue money and women at the same time fellas. At some point you will have to chose one

Just write some code to do the work for you . Computers are better at spotting market deviations anyway

I think learning to control your emotions instead of letting your emotions control you is the root cause of this issue, not having to choose between women and career. Worst case scenario, if you know you have big deals like this that can go south and put you in a bad mood, you may consider telling the girl about this up front, to warn her what may happen and why, and then if a deal goes bad on a day you are seeing her, you can cancel the date with an explanation and ask for a raincheck.

When I have a big deal fall through after going through the motions of planning, using strong arm tactics, entertaining, bribing and leading a bunch of people towards that end, I would be pissed.

Pissed that another team was more innovative.

I'd head to the pub's, alone, look for answers at the bottom of the glass, then the next day gather my team and learn from what the competition did, and make sure that the next time round we beat them at their own game.
