At my old credit union, whenever I need to make a larger purchase than their 1k limit, I'd have to call or chat with a rep and they would temporarily do that for me. Does Charles Schwab do something similar?

I’m a divorced, 55yo male back in the dating pool for almost 3 years now. Looking back at past experiences, my best sexual partners have, among other things, been great at engaging in communicating with me during sex. Wether it’s “dirty talk” or some kind of mutual feedback/assurance that’s exchanged by verbal or nonverbal communication. It makes me feel closer to my partner. I feel disconnected at times when no one is saying anything or interacting at all besides penetration. I’m not talking about moments when my partner or myself might become momentarily unable to form words in a pleasurable moment. I’m talking about an extended period of time each of us in our own worlds. Just want to pu

I’m starting to think that finding a long term partner would be a lot easier if I (54m) just stopped giving attractive women a higher priority over others. I know it’s shallow. I also know that we are all aging over time and that part doesn’t bother me. I do want to grow old with somebody in the long term. My issue is that I would like to begin our relationship at the point where there is strong mutual attraction. This is starting to feel unattainable. It seems like I often get into lopsided situations where one person has much stronger feelings and attraction than the other person. I’ve been on both sides of it and I’m not sure what the solution is. Is it just me?

It started out so well!

On our first date she (39F divorced) confessed to me that she decided to pay for the online membership after seeing my profile so she could message me. What was supposed to be an hour long lunch turned in 7 1/2 hour full day day of walking around city paths, parks, murals, getting drinks and more food and just enjoying each others company. We have a lot in common in terms of places we lived and geeky SciFi culture. She has ADHD is on meds for it. She has some beliefs that are a little out there but as long as it's positive I don't care. Very attractive, we kissed about 8 or 10 times that day. In cozy corners, in the middle of walking paths, it did not matter, the 2-

Without getting into too many details. I am in the middle of a contested divorce in the state of Georgia (Atlanta). Her lawyer has been slow to responding and now it's been over a year since I filed. Current waiting for a final mediation date as my kids are adults and only about the dwindling money now. I know that the court system had been slowed by Covid but is there no upper limit on how long things can be dragged out?

I participated in the Wolfram NFT Auction a few weeks back and it said that withdrawals were not permitted until 72 hours after the auction. That time has passed and I still can't get the ADA I deposited initially. Is it just me?

So I’m sitting here watching the 1989 movie version of Henry V and dialogue and soliloquies are so delicious. Obviously there will never be another bard like Bill but I now aching for a fantasy novelist with a supreme command of the English language for dialogue married to a great story. Any suggestions?

For those that have no idea here is a tiny snippet from what I just watched and cheered to:

The scene is King Henry rallying his troops as they lay siege to the first resisting castle during their invasion of France:

"Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more; Or close the wall up with our English dead. In peace there’s nothing so becomes a man As modest stillness and humility:

I have already Green and Biz Gold but with more travel on the horizon, really contemplating Platinum for it's great travel benefits. Would it be better to convert the green to platinum or just apply for the platinum outright? The green is less than a year old if that matters.
