How does it feel to be liked on dating apps from an old colleague? It happened to me once before but I knew that guy pretty well and we just swiped right on each other as a joke 🤣

I can assure you it probably wasn’t a joke for him 😂. I’ve gone on a few dates with ex colleagues - usually ends up perfectly fine unless you guys are going to be working together again!

We didn't like each other on an app but she did DM me on Instagram saying she saw me on one of the apps and let's go get drinks. I didn't respond and found it weird mainly because it had been a few years since we'd had any contact.

Unsure if my reaction would have been different had it not been so long since we'd been in touch.

Lol I'm on a dating app, removed the incognito mode for a week or so and maybe I'm paranoid but I feel many more people of the opposite gender do look at me, I actually got a couple likes from colleagues that I have never met at the office (it is a big building with >2k people...)

How do you know it was a joke?

35M. Friend zoned after one date. What am I doing wrong? I met her at a baby shower. We talked/text regular for about a month or so because I was traveling for work. Finally went on a date about two weeks ago, a week after I told her I like her and said she never thought about us being romantic. Today I got the official friend zoned text.

In my opinion one of the worse things you could hear from someone when you are dating is ‘I usually don’t talk to someone like you’. It makes it seem like you are just settling for that person.
