Linkedin the new Tinder?

-

 Hey Guys!


Is Linkedin the new Tinder? That is a really good question. I have had Linkedin for maybe a year now. It is crazy what is going on, on Linkedin. I have heard so many crazy stories from other people. I only have one story to tell about Linkedin. I was pretty new to Linkedin. I was excited to find new Opportunities. One day i received a "Request" from a Person I did not know. I thought "Okay cool I think im Networking" and of course accepted the Person. I felt good having more and more people connect with me and growing my Network. 

So this Person I did not know wrote me a Message " Hey thanks for connecting with me. Hope your doing well". I thought wow so nice and answered im doing good and I was happy that we were connected as well. This Person had a really cool job! So i was interested and felt important, that somebody with that kind of Job wanted to be connected to me. (Of Course only in the Business Sense) 

A few days later I received another message from the Person "Hey you are really beautiful, are you single?" - I was shocked and confused. Did i sign up for Tinder and not notice ? I didnt know how to respond, because I was NOT expecting this reaction at all. How do you respond correctly to something like that? Ignore it - be nice ? Super difficult situation. But I think it is best to just not engage. 

I have had Linkedin now for a longer time and this only happened to me once. I have heard from other women that it has happened alot to them. Im asking myself - can we not just have a Portal where its only about Business. Can Women not connect with people and grow there Business Network without automatically some people thinking this is a chance for a cool date ? 

Xoxo

Hey Guys ! ,  I am getting ready to get out of bed. I have been sick for the past 5 days and have not left my bed. I think it is about time to get some fresh air and some movement. That always help to recover. I wanted to go meet up with my Boyfriend to Great Berry but We have decided to go to Cafe Buur. Great Berry for those of you that don't know Great Berry, is an amazing little Cafe with Superfoods! I used to get my immune shots there. They were made with Ginger and Lemons.... these highly concentrated and sharp shots do not only make fresh and lively, but strengthen the immune defense demonstrably and mainly influenza infections. The Great Berry has also Great Bowls and Superfoods. The Cafe Buur has just opened a few Months ago. I have not been there so i can not say if its good or not. I will catch you guys up once i have visited them. Cafe Buur has Detox Water. That also sounds interesting. :) Its still an open Question if were going to Great Berry or Ca...

Hello :) I have had a pretty busy weekend. Ive spent my weekend learning to Salsa dance and hanging out with new friends and just making new friends. Early last week I was fired from my job. I enjoyed my Job actually a lot and I had a lot of fun. It completely caught me off guard and threw me 10 Steps backwards. How is it possible that one event can change everything in your life ? Its like one of those Dominos Chips falling over and all the rest of the Dominos Chips fall afterwards... Standing there at the end with nothing. The only thing you can do in that situation is turn around and put each domino chip back up. But until you get all those Domino pieces back up it takes a while. And you notice things lying around that you should probably also work on... Domino Pieces are missing ... New patterns are being made... its almost like a Reset Button. Just this time you can do everything different and maybe even better. I can choose a different Path. Another weird thought went throug...

Abuse It started in the year 2009. I lived in Germany for a year. I finally made some new friends and i was having so much fun. I met a guy in a Club in Cologne and fell in love right away. I never thought that I would find love again. But I did.  It stated at to be a wonderful Romance. He was such a Gentleman and did everything for me. I felt like a Princess. This all went well for 3-4 Months. I thought I was dreaming.. I moved in with him after just 2 months. His Family loved me like i was part of the Family. Since I didn't haven Family in Germany I felt so comfortable and loved. I got so used to being part of the Family that I started believing it.  A few more months past... The man I looked up to so badly. Started to change rapidly.  It started with a little nudge on my arm... and wasn't that big of a deal. He would apologize and send me flowers the next day. So i just thought he was upset because of work and had to let it out by me. I thought i was ...
