What are fun things to do for 2nd date in Chicago?

Men 🐟: Is the unwritten rule of urban spacing dead?! Too many guys ponying up nice and close lately. Ladies, do you have any similar unwritten rules of the bathroom?

I recently went from having an incredibly open and intimate long-term relationship with a person I was certain I was going to marry… to now getting asked “what’s your favorite color” on a first date. Godddd I hate dating sometimes

Went on a short coffee date with a person who was nice, but I just don’t think we’re compatible. What’s a kind text I can send to explain, after they said we should see each other again?

TL;DR - a rando complaining

I feel exhausted, truly exhausted, by wanting something serious and simple yet only attracting casual and complicated. I get that dating is a chore and this city is notoriously fast, but I'm just just at a loss.

Do men in their 30s actually want to settle down and get married? It seems like most are pretty happy with their single lifestyle. Asking as a 26F who is looking for commitment if I should even bother

Anyone from Los Angeles here? And any luck with dating in the LA area?

Hi there!!

🥰🥰
I just want to say that I'm queer and married, in a Cis-hetero passing relationship 🤭

Do we have to talk about dating like all the time?

Can't we talk about other stuff? Like promoting THE AGENDA (jk)

No, but FR let's talk about being open and accepted in the workplace? How did you do that? How (un) friendly is the work environment?

Thankyaaaaaaaalll 😘😘😘

Could anyone suggest a good ladies pg in Marathalli area? Preferably single sharing or double.

Woman I went on one date with keeps me informed on what she's doing. I.e. Seeing her girlfriend or on her way to a birthday party. Not used to this level of transparency after just one date. We do have a second date planned. Thoughts?

Dating my guy for 6 months now and he’s just such a lovely soul but I’m not physically attracted, there’s no spark and I’m afraid to let go but also afraid to keep holding on..

25 years old woman
Location: Canada
Preference: guy aged > 25 - 35 within North America
Not interested in hookups or fwb

When do we think dating can go back to normal post-pandemic? Are we thinking mid 2021?

34M looking to move to an area with other singles in their 30s. Currently in the UES but looking to move out for a change in scene.

At work do you ever describe who you’re dating without using gender specific pronouns just to avoid finding out if a co-worker is going to act weird about it? Lol

My wife is in sales at Mercedes and she has been averaging $200k a year and growing YoY. She loves her job, however she works long days and barely gets time off. We plan on having kids within the next year or two, and it’s highly u likely that she’ll be able to keep her current gig. We want to find a career that allows her to work remote or that at least gives her a better work life balance so that she can see her kids grow up. Should she get certifications to give her a shot at adtech?Too late?

529 Plan VERSUS Prepaid

We live in Florida and currently have a Freshman in High School and a 16 month old. We hear from our friends and family with college bound children "I wish we would have done Florida PrePaid." After obviously ignoring this for years, we are finally trying to do it before "it's too late" for both children.

Does anyone have recommendations on which plan to go with for each child? I once did the pros and cons on a whiteboard and it seemed like 529 was better.

I am expecting an offer from Master Card for Senior Software Engineer position in O Fallon MO. Please let me know what kind of base salary I can expect with 11 yrs experience . I don’t wanna undersell but also trying to avoid being aggressive but quote a decent number which will be achievable. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Is 125k $ base a fair value for or I can pitch higher? They have a 15 to 20 % bonus on top of base pay and a 10% match on 401k which the recruiter keep highlighting.

Who is hiring Human Capital and Learning Development roles right now?

I prepared a presentation for an interview with a sales leader, it went well and I was offered a final interview with regional manager. The sales leader I interviewed with gave me a bunch of feedback, but said to find out information about tech stack, which I for some reason, didn’t consider. I come to find out that deep, hidden within the website of the hypothetical client, they use the service already. Do I roll into the final interview and play dumb or do i present and then come clean?

If you are not outraged by Breonna Taylor’s ruling, you are Anti-Second Amendment.

The second amendment lets us arm ourselves against tyranny (and as conservatives will often say, government tyranny). When the government infringes on our rights and breaks into our house and shoots up the place, I don’t have a right to defend myself?

If you side with the police, you are not pro-second amendment and you need to be deported you comi-******

Would anyone who owns the bowflex adjustable dumbbells mind sharing their opinions about them? I’m thinking of either purchasing some for my home gym or buy an entire dumbbell set.

As a divorcee with a kid, i find it extremely hard to find friends who can relate, or even making friends as it seems there’s a stigma attached to you because your relationship didn’t work out.

Anyone familiar with Ephesoft Transact that would let me pick their brain?

How do you feel about schools getting closed for the World Series victory? If we make it ok to close for things like this, where do we draw the line? I think people fail to realize the impact missing school can have on kids.

Any ideas for a 40th bday venue? Dinner with a good vibe and lounge after? Did MaD last year for him and they had a semi private but still very much in the mix for 15 people. I honestly can’t think of what to do but he’s bougieAF. Steak48 is an option. Looking for any other cool things you’ve hosted or attended lately?

Anyone interested in a live talk for this bowl and talk about interesting things people are working on?

About a month ago I got stuck behind this huge bicycle event called "Critical Mass". Probably sat at the light for 20-25 minutes before I could get through. Noticed a bunch of them doing irresponsible stunts like wheelies or drinking beer as they rode. Anyone else encountered these jerks?

City of Houston Jobs - anyone have any insight into their hiring process? My applications get to the Referred List stage but then go stale.
