Anyone ever get friendzoned by a guy and then have things work out for them eventually?

Hello! I’ve previously only dated white guys. While in quarantine I’ve gone on dil mil and made an effort with brown guys on apps. Surprised to find that many live at home or visit home often in mid 20s, are not financially independent, cannot cook for themselves etc. Is this typical? Or maybe it’s just the area I live in. Sorry if this came off as offensive, it just seems to be a pattern I noticed

How do y’all meet people (networking/prospects/otherwise)? Something besides mipster/muppies would be solid :)

Who’s your celebrity crush? 😍

I'm curious how many 🐠 actually manage to date new people when travelling 4/5 days each week?

Brand new single post divorce. Was with ex almost 18 years and never dated as an adult. What the hell am I in for? 35f.

Signed up for a matchmaking service a couple months ago after getting tired of the apps. And while I’ve been underwhelmed with their process so far, I finally have my first match date this weekend. Haven’t been on a date since pre-pandemic. And never been on a true blind date like this. Wish me luck.

There are too many men out there who think that just because I'm being polite, it's a sign that they should flirt with me while I'm at work. I thought this was 2022, why haven't we as a society gotten past this yet?

Any smart, funny and caring Desi F Interested in connecting? Trying really hard to avoid the matrimonial route.

How are single people managing primal urges during this I wonder. Dont bother answering if you never got laid before this anyway. I am just curious as sexting & porn can only go so far

Lockdown makes it hard to date

When you're on a date and you say what you do...what are the reactions?

Some annoying dude I didn’t like in college just joined my firm & keeps trying to message me. Do I ignore or what lmao

Do you text your SO when you’re out drinking/partying? Do you expect them to text you?

Stories of a Jax night out?

I'll go first: on a last night out for a navy guy I'd dated for like 6mo he dragged us to king street where i never enjoy, at the bar w the toss the ring game a couple was fucking in the bathroom and the guy in front of me in line was mad about it taking so long so he started banging on the door trying to break it down and started to fight them when they came out. So we escaped to kickbacks where a customer threw a drink at the waitress who subsequently pulled a 🔪

Most cringeworthy pickup lines you’ve seen on dating apps?
I’ll start: “Are you my appendix cuz I want to take you out”

How do you ask someone to mentor you?

How it's like to work in Johns Hopkins Hospital ED as RN?

Product Manager offer is 120k salary, sign on bonus of 15k. 4 YOE total. Undergrad degree in computer science. Am I underpaid? This is a legit question lol. I’ve only done federal contracting/consulting work.

Directors and Managers- how often do you find yourself rolling up your sleeves to re-do work done by your team because you tried to set expectations + iterate but ran out of time?

I keep getting accused of being a bot in live chat. Should I approach my boss about being less scripted, or is the efficiency worth it?

I'm a cashier. We just got a new manager, and she's making things really hard for us. She starts work at 4:30am and leaves around 2:30pm, but she still expects us to stay until 6pm and work on the weekends! She gives us really long shifts and doesn't give us much time for breaks. And when we ask her about it, she gets mad.

I'm worried that if I speak up, she'll make my life even harder. I don't want to lose my job because of this—do you guys have any advice?

Hi all, anyone familiar with Skadden in DC? Looking for any insight!

I currently work at an international law firm (4 years) and recently accepted an offer to go in house. The main attorney I support did not take the news well and was very angry with me. I feel awful and beaten down as I don’t want to upset anyone but the new role is fully remote and a nice pay bump. Looking for words of encouragement that I did the right thing. I feel awful 😞

6 months pregnant and just laid off. And 40% of my severance was just taken in taxes .. I just spoke with paid family leave and I no longer qualify even though I had been paying into the program (thanks NY).. I already applied for unemployment but doctors are telling me I’ve got 10-14 weeks left in this pregnancy.. so stressed having twins and being unemployed, no maternity leave, no paychecks coming in, and I’ve been applying but not a single interview.. just ugh. 😭

I want to quit without a job lined up. My agency is a dumpster fire of incompetent project managers, revolving door of creatives and culture of not holding people accountable amidst a micromanaging gossipy leadership. I just want out. Tell me it is ok and will be alright.

How do you fix microsoft excel cannot paste data error?

My VP asked my fellow team member to take on a task simply because of her race to help them land a grant renewal. We’re both women of color but since I didn’t match the target audience I was not asked even though the task is on a project I am overseeing. We’re both offended with how this was handled by the VP, are we overreacting?

I think I’m ready to be a housewife. So tired of this 9 to 5 grind 😩😵‍💫🤧

Edit: it’s more like 24/7 now

My latest LinkedIn annoyance is the people posting about their kids wearing their company swag or seeing their company logo/name out and about (as in sponsorships).

Yesterday I made a blanket fort with my husband and we watched a movie and ate ice cream. Yes, it was awesome.

Worst migraine ever. Still got it since Wednesday night

People over 30 years old... Is there anything you would wait on a line for at this age (eg. Food, restaurants, concerts, clubs, bars, celebrity photos, etc)?

Everytime I’m riding high, getting good work done, my boss has to come in and ruin the mood. Every time. Here’s to spending the rest of my day eating ice cream and watching tv while still working but less than before

My confession is I have always had very competetive and hardworking close friends around me with whom I felt amazing to compete, do more and be the best. A few years back we all made to different countries, now I achieve far less than my potential and find it hard to be as efficient as before. How to fix this?

I was about to talk trash about my truck driving friends and blame them for my heatwave related problems. Then I remembered that I drive an SUV, not zero emission, and I'm not doing much better for the environment than they are. I'll just ask them what if the climate change believers are right and see what they say.

How much do you tip in an higher priced restaurant? Went for dinner last night for 2. The bill was $220ish and I tipped 30%. My friend said I tipped too much and that he would've only tipped 10-15% because the price was higher. Thoughts?

I have to stop drinking if I am ever going to lose these 35 lbies…

Love my boyfriend but embarrassed by him when he gets drunk... he always seems to be the drunkest person at happy hour when we go out w friends/starts slurring/eyes aren’t as focused. cant tell if I’m the one that’s being restrictive — does anyone else feel this way w their partner?

Do you text your SO when you’re out drinking/partying? Do you expect them to text you?

I rearrange my home office several times a year. Idk why but every 4 months I need to change it up. Anyone else do this?

Whoever said bumble bbfs was great couldn’t have been more right. It’s weird I’ve l been confident in how I look in the last few years but my personality and likability was put into question but instantly I seem to be receiving the friendship attention I like, 50+ likes by 4am on the first day, signed up at 2am. It’s kind of nice to make brand new friends without having a connection or a class together. Old friends and friends or friends sometimes benchmark you and don’t view the new you

I lie to my girlfriend every time we make plans — I always tell her to be ready an hour before I want her to be and she’s still normally running 15-30 minutes late

I have to keep reminding myself that I don't need validation from certain people. It's hard.

Anyone else on here use the app ‘iFunny’ to look at memes daily?
