I get it too OP. I think the sadness for me comes from wondering what is actually wrong with me if everyone tells me I'm a "catch". I've realized I need to put myself out there a bit more and it's ok to be flirty and show my interest. I'll work on that and until a dude "catch" comes along I'll keep going on with my awesome self. Take it as a compliment 😊

@OP I wasn't trying to date you or score, just a social lunch and lift your spirits. Hang in there bro, things will get better. Just focus on what's going well for you. She will surface at the right time when you don't expect it

I get that a lot too and find it extremely annoying. Sometimes I think that having that mentality pushes guys / girls away, because they might find it intimidating. OP / D2, which city are you ladies based out of?

Thanks everyone 🙏

Didn't mean to mislead but I'm actually a guy and I've been told this by so many friends. My friends would say that and try to set up dates for me with their friends but people will drop, don't follow through and stuff like that. Mostly female friends who do this matchmaking which I appreciate.

People I don't know at parties would ask me whether my gf is coming and say the same thing at when I say I'm here alone. I've been on dates and I get ghosted or told I'm too nice. What does that even mean?

I'm in the PNW. And staying anonymous because it seems like a guy with emotions is stoned by society.

Same goes for you too OP even though you are male. Maybe the too nice is from not showing real interest? I noticed that was my problem.

Wow OP, in a sad way this makes me feel better because it seems to me all good looking dudes always have 100 girls lined up for them and willing to take their shit. I'm sorry this is happening to you but for now enjoy the single life!

@Aa1, thanks in a weird way I guess haha. I don't think I'm good looking but I'm pretty genuine with people

I really do think it will come in time because most woman I've dated are older than me. So are most of my friends. Maybe I just need the numeric age to catch up. (That said I've been telling myself this for a few years now...)

All employees are eligible to these benefits and these are beyond the CTC.

Does Freshworks Inc provide any of the above or any other benefits besides CTC ?
