Anyone else feels like we are inundated with content about how to sustain relationships but there’s a significant lack of content around how to date and actually start a new relationship? It may just be my perception but more of us are single today and becoming complacent with that reality despite acknowledging that it’s making us deeply lonely and perhaps functionally depressed, and breaking out of this new comfort zone really seems to be what we need. Thoughts?

Anyone else absolutely *loathe* being assigned new client matters at the end of the month when you know your billable time won’t count bc conflicts haven’t cleared yet? Just me?

How do I politely decline that I’m not okay to make out in the first date or when the guy calls me over to his place after we meet/eat/drink? I want to take things slowly & know the person before getting physical. Not everyone might like this but that’s what I am & this whole thing appears off-putting.

Any F in the Bay Area wana have some exciting time?

Hi! Female 30 in NYC here. I work in the corporate sector. I’m a first generation immigrant. I have a passion for Olympic weightlifting and I love trying new foods, going to the movies, and essentially am a homebody. Looking for someone with similar values.

Question for F🐠. Someone asks you to keep them company via text, social media, maybe a phone call sometime etc. You'll be payed to do this. Would you do it? And what are your terms?

Any M 40+ in Nairobi? The apps here are not it!

Welcome to the 30s and 40s singles bowl! Here’s to hoping the posts in this bowl are a bit more mature. Relying on the honor system here, try not to lie about your age.

Men in your 30s and 40s - what is the number one quality you're looking for in a woman? I like to think I'm compassionate, intelligent and independent (as much as any other woman), but I'm still struggling to find dates. I would say I'm attractive, and I take care of myself pretty well. What am I doing wrong?

Who here is willing to turn on networking for the next 2 hours?? People want to see their options in this bowl! You can then quietly go back into the shadows.

Are text message breakups acceptable? Better than complete ghosting right

Any F in nyc wanna hang out this weekend? 30 M here.

Rewatching Brokeback Mountain, which came out 15 years ago (hard to believe that). Anyway, it's still an outstanding, devastating film (and love story) that I think if had been released 10 years later would have easily won best picture and best actor for Heath Ledger.

I recently asked everyone’s age filters on dating apps and there were some mentions of fear of baggage and that’s why you don’t date older than X. What baggage are you afraid of? Ex spouses? Kids from prior relationships? What is it?

35F divorced with a kid. I think I will never get remarried or in a serious relationship again. Lots of men don't like dating women with children. At my age either the guys are past their prime, divorced/ing and have to provide half their income to their first wife. Many with kids live on the same street as their ex wives so they can be close to their child. I'm not comfortable dating guys like that. On the flip side there are the ones that were never married, which by this age cont

Not in my 30s or 40s but looking to network with people in industry. I am a fun person so you will not get bored :)
