M here. I don’t know what it is genuinely that I’m doing wrong. I get barely matches on dating app; I don’t have the shiny muscles to show off on the apps, a 7 or 8 looks wise, great personality, and can easily to talk to anyone. I don’t know how to take the conversation out of the friendly zone to make a girl realize that I want to be sexual with her. Especially F 🐠s, would love to hear your POV on this as I’m sure you’ve encountered guys like me before. M 🐠s, let me hear your take too.

So this might be a better place to post this and ask this question: Uncle D has announced explicitly that most people won’t get a pay raise & bonus this year except for those promoted and high performers. Amid this crisis, are companies including other big 3, MBB, FAANG, boutique consulting firms still giving high raises and issue stocks? Can you share the impact from your firm?
