Are dudes expected to carry the conversation on dating apps? Or is it just me?

Generalizations won’t apply the every individual.

Generally speaking, if you’re looking for a love connection, and you’re talking to people that don’t participate in the conversation as much as you, then you’re not talking to the right person.

Are extended conversations on dating apps the norm, and is it as painful as it sounds? This is just to determine if there is enough interest to meet in person?

(Sorry for ignorant questions, that’s a world I am not familiar with.)

Is my bar too high in this day and age if I want guys to at least ask me out in person instead of reaching out on social media having never met me in person before? I just like when you have the guts to approach me in person instead of hiding behind a keyboard, or start with wanting to get to know me and not coming on too strong if we've never met.

I empathize that it's more comfortable for us to hide behind our keyboards, but I also like a guy with guts and conviction.

I’m seriously considering starting up a solo shop. I have a very reliable stream of business (family friend has one patent that was infringed multiple times, huge firms have taken a few of these on contingency). Pros: I don’t have law school debt; I could follow these large firm’s general trajectory in prosecuting these cases; high risk tolerance (no kids, mortgage, etc). Cons: I’m inexperienced generally (class of 2019), and not familiar with patent law specifically. Thoughts?

Genuine question. I would have voted for Bernie or Yang, but find it silly that I need to include that as a disclaimer to convince people that I might actually be a sane human being.

I consider myself liberal, which is very different from considering myself a leftist. I support free speech. I support equality on all fronts. I am very intrigued by the idea of universal basic income, and am interested in proposals for universal healthcare (though I do hate Obamacare).

However (continued)...
