As an ADC applying this summer for 2022 start, I haven’t gotten a chance to connect with any L.E.K. Consulting members and I really want to get to know the company better before moving on with my application. Any L.E.K. Consulting fish out there willing to spare a few minutes to chat about their work, the company, the culture etc? Thanks!

Same question, but I'm 27. 😄
took me over 30 years to meet a guy worth putting in the effort to call my boyfriend and try for long term for the first time. we’re approaching 2 years together soon and all the more in love. you’ve got time.
With that said, holla at your boy 😉
The last long term ( > 1 year) relationship I was in was 9 years ago. It was when I left an abusive relationship and went back to college. Now I’m too much of an “independent woman” to get stuck with some loser with an IQ of 27. I guess I’ll settle with being a sugar daddy
I feel like that’s common within the LGBT community. I’ve only been in one 7 month relationship, and I’m about to be 25. I think it’s hard to meet guys who are looking for something serious, especially during busy season. It’s also tougher solely from a numbers perspective for us to find Mr. Right, so don’t beat yourself up!
The gag is that there is no timeline for this kinda thing. I would say just keep going on all the dates with whomever and start tuning out what people think. Authenticity is a very attractive thing to everyone.
EY5 thanks for notifying us of your interest!
Same question here buddy minus the part about the girl.
OP. You’re in accounting, of course you are weird. :-/. I always hated the way I looked, comparing myself to others. Turns out, I wasn’t bad looking, just very judgements about myself. Do you want to date? I still (in my 40s) feel awkward and socially inept. I don’t know what beer or drink to order at bars, or what the cool restaurant, movie or music is. I usually wait for someone to show an interest in me rather than making the first move. For your self-doubt, why not see a therapist? Even if you are ugly and weird, (and you probably aren’t ) there’s someone out there who would be interested. (BTW, someone I respected once told me I was wierd and it spun me into a depression. I am a bit wierd, but I have learned to be ok with it). My BF is actually weirder than I am it’s important to just be a nice person, that’s what attracts people in the long run. I don’t know if that helps. If you are gay, get involved in your local affinity group
Ok so you’ve hooked up. That’s ahead of where I was at your age. No need to stress about it. Maybe you’re bi. You’ll figure it out. You have time
EY2: I’m glad that your BFF has been able to help you so much! I was curious since I feel like a lot of gay men (myself included) are shy and insecure.
I never really started dating until about 28. I was shy and insecure. When the time is right for you, it will be right. Don’t stress out about it
EY 2, how did you get over being shy and insecure?
BDO1: well I still am, a bit. I was kind of sheltered, so being on my own helped, and learning not to care what people think (I was always afraid that people would think I’m dumb for asking questions or not knowing something) I’m way harder on myself than other people are. I still am not the kind of person who would make the first move. I am just more accepting of rejection and making mistakes. Doesn’t reflect on me, I’m just not everyone’s type. It helped that I had a really outdoing BFF (woman) who helped me figure things out
associate - what city are you in
EY 2 - I am constantly under stress that I am ugly and wired, that’s why no one want to date me.
I feel like Fantine sometimes
I posted this somewhere else. I didn’t have a relationship until I was 40. Maybe I had a rotten boyfriend when I was in my 20s, but that was it. Said relationship is now a husband and is snoring away next to me. I am at least twice ( if not more) as old as most of you. I lived through the 1980s when a lot of people died, and relationship took on new meaning. I hate to admit this because it is so stereotypically gay, but at a certain point, I decided to give them what they wanted and started going to the gym 3 times a week. It worked, but not for a relationship, only for sex. Your twenties are a bad time to try to find a relationship. I don’t know why, but it seems to be a phenomenon in the gay world. Instead, I would suggest that you try to find yourself, that you avoid Grindr and the like, and try to do things where you might meet other gay guys-no necessarily for dating. The relationship will happen. It might take longer than you’d like, but it will happen. Then you can have a snoring husband too
EY 6, you sound shallow. Why do you automatically assume it’s an appearance thing?
