I know people will hate this answer but...networking events. The legal industry has a ton of them (bar association mixers, law firm-hosted happy hours, CLEs, etc.). I'm sure other industries do as well. Obviously a lot of people at these things aren't single and those who are don't go to with the intention of getting hit on (don't be creepy), but it's a good way to meet people outside of your org.

Flyday thoughts: I'm a 💁🏼 who is attracted to 💁🏾‍♂️ guys. But the desi men I've dated have been more interested in casual hookups, not relationships. I'm not that kind of girl so it always fizzles out pretty soon. Are there 💁🏾‍♂️ out there who would be interested in a (potentially serious-ish) relationship with a white girl, and is there a way differentiate them from the guys just tryna get laid?

How do you know if someone likes you in the beginning of dating? I met this guy online who I thought was cute and we went on a few dates. He always texted me right after the date and always initiates another date right after or within a day. He’s been sweet to me (ie when I was packing for a trip, he noticed there’s dirty dishes in the sink and he just started washing them for me) but he never texts in between dates and doesn’t really initiates much physical contact (he reciprocates when I do)

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.

Do you guys find it easy to meet interesting people and has the city gotten any more fun?

New to US. Which brokers offer best margin accounts? For e.g. I have equities worth $100K and want to trade options. Is there a broker where I can do so without paying more in collateral money - essentially using stocks as collateral, and also not paying margin interest. Was able to do so in London, Hong Kong, and India. However, Robinhood here doesn’t seem to allow it.
