I hate my height so much. I’m 5’9 female and it’s a lot harder to date when you're a tall woman as being tall is seen as being less “feminine”. Tired of being met with the shocked faces of dates or even colleagues. Can’t wear heels. Wish I could get 5 inches out of my spine of something.

Any single females in the Evanston area want to grab a drink tonight?

Serious question: I’m too culturally Korean to be a marketable product in the US dating market. I’m too culturally American to be marketable in the Korean dating market. What do I do?

27 years M from suburbs Chicago looking to date

Need advice. Very Shy guy and girl, met a while back for a side hustle both like each other a LOT, relationship has progressed in other areas but not in the physical realm, primarily because neither officially asked the other out. Guy is a very rough around edges, asked for a date by saying ‘anytime you need breakfast or lunch, let me know’. I am an independent gal and didn’t like the way it came across. I really want to take this forward but am out of ideas on how to make a date happen.

Anyone looking for a girlfriend? So hard to date within the tribe! Or even your son, set me up 😂

Hi, I'm new here, and I didn't know there was a dating feature but it seems cool.

I find that being a police officer tends to limit my dating pool. I love being a cop don't get me wrong, but I need a little advice on how to navigate the dating world with being an officer. The moment I am transparent about my career, I get ghosted. Then those who do stick around tend to fall in love with my uniform and not me.

Anyone in search of dating / LTR?

I’m 26, 5’10” (prefer same height or taller), Libra, live in Manhattan, have a dog, drink socially, socially active but not a working out kind of person/super fit (dad bod), full time professional, live alone, have goals, ambivert, side ↘️

Feel free to HMU. 😊

Ladies what are the best apps to find a one night stand with a normal guy?

39M in West LA, looking to meet someone for drinks and see where things go! (Never married, no kids)

Anyone done lofoten islands or the kungsleden trail? Would love some more info. Thinking of sept date to avoid crowds.

Any tips for hard launching partners on social media? For context, I’ve (Indian American female) been dating my white American boyfriend for 3 years and we just got engaged after two years of convincing my parents. They are very happy and excited now, but I’m scared shitless about being ostracized / judged by my extended family and Indian community in the US once I “let the cat out of the bag” on the engagement news. I want to be proud and confident about this but could use some moral support.

How are people making the most of dating in Covid? Has anyone met someone through the apps and started dating during this time? Thought it would be a great time to find people who are looking for something serious and less distracted by a busy routine but haven’t had much luck.

Wanted to post on here to get advice. I am dating a guy that I love very much but he is atheist. This is something that bothers me since I was raised Catholic and my whole family is Catholic. cont..

Ladies of fishbowl, question. Girl says she wants to get drinks as friends, but is persistent in getting your number to text. Overthinking or is there something behind this? I’m also good friends with her current landlord/roommate.

Had a second date planned for tonight, she text me this morning and has a high fever! Should I send a care package?

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

How do I get out of a date?

I’m 35, and going on a first date. Thinking about bringing her flowers. Yea on No? And what would be the perception?

There’s a manager on here who is cat fishing. Tells women he’s a woman and asks for phone number. Doesn’t share name and uses a Google voice number. Happened with another friend of mine on this bowl and with me. Please be careful.

Last week I had an interview with Infosys, it didn't go well as per my expectations but i was able to answer most of the questions asked by the panel and they said I will get the feedback from HR team but it's been more than one week and I didn't get any update on this. Yesterday I also wrote an email to the HR who scheduled the interview but still no update.

Should I consider that I am not being selected?

I’m a newer registered nurse (2 years) and want to get into remote work. I keep getting denied due to lack of experience but to even get the job I have now (case manager) the company knew one of my family members and they gave me a chance to interview because of that. For these remote companies where I don’t have connections how can I transition over?

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions. Just found out 6 days later I will not be receiving an offer, and it is policy to not provide feedback of gaps or reasons behind no offer. Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?

I was just informed after the third round of interviews they’d like at least 5 references, two must be supervisors. My last job was a temporary remote job where I didn’t really interact with my supervisor and the jobs before that were at my family’s business (I do not speak to any of them for serious personal reasons.) Anything before that was grad school and I haven’t kept in contact with any professors from over five years ago. What should I do? 😕

Hello fishes,

Can anyone reffer me for SOC Analyst?

I have an offer from E&Y.

Is Hollywood out of creativity nowadays? Every film seems to be similar to a pre-existing one and don't even get me started on all the remakes.

DONT JOIN EY INDIA

PATHETIC EXPERIENCE

HR ARE UNPROFESSIONAL DONT CARE IF YOU JOIN NOT JOIN

I AM SO GREAT FUL THAT I HAVE NOT JOINED SUCH USLESS UNIT

I have cracked 4 interview so posting genuine opinion here.

I recently interviewed with Natwest and I got confirmation that they wanted to offer a role. Salary negotiations were started. However, now I got an email from the hiring manager that hiring for my role has been paused due to the ongoing cost of living crisis. He expects to resume the hiring for the role in Q1 '23 and would resume the process then. So is it the end? Honestly, I don't expect him to come back. But what do you think?

I have been seeing all of these "studies" saying that many people prefer working in the office versus working from home... I'm doubting these results and want to conduct my own little poll.
Do you prefer:
A) Working from Home
B) Working from the Office
C) Hybrid

I'm updating my resume for the first time in 3 years and I'm struggling with how long it should be. I can get everything on to one page, but if I want to elaborate about my experience, it's going to be 1.5-2 pages.

Fis mohali is now permanent wfh, they've closed it down

Is it normal for senior managers to ask you to cancel leaves or to nit apply leaves in EY GDS? My manager told in all hands meeting yesterday to not apply leaves during tear end. Won’t this become a hr issue?

So, again my client went with the banner and website design ideas from from their print-based (and cheaper) agency. Now I get to make their garbage. Sometimes I wonder why we bother. #designrant

Failed NNN, there’s always next year

Rant: my boyfriend is so annoying with this diet! I GET IT. You want to eat healthy! But when you have your friends at our place every other weekend they order pizza and you devour most of 2 boxes! But when I want pizza or wings or burgers I have to hear a whole spiel. “Can we pick something healthier?” “You can order ___ but can I choose something else on the menu?” “I don’t knowwww” like MY GOD. Then if I order something for me he wants half or bites! Sick of it!!!

I have to keep reminding myself that I don't need validation from certain people. It's hard.

One of my best friends growing up just passed away. We lost contact with each other a year or two after graduating high school and I recently came to learn he was was battling cancer the past 5 years and ultimately succumbed to the illness. He hid it well from everyone and led a very private life during it all. To make matters worse, he had just turned 25. Seeing pictures of the condition he was in towards the end of his fight broke my heart. I wish I had known so I could’ve been there for him.

My VP asked my fellow team member to take on a task simply because of her race to help them land a grant renewal. We’re both women of color but since I didn’t match the target audience I was not asked even though the task is on a project I am overseeing. We’re both offended with how this was handled by the VP, are we overreacting?

I am usually not into younger guys but this person has been making moves on me a lot. I am just trying to be a responsible adult and date more age appropriate aka people over 30.

Boys in the bowl, help me out here

Anyone knows how to open a non-profit company?

For my fellow males out there, when did you realize/know you were packing or not?

Worst migraine ever. Still got it since Wednesday night

As a man are you looking for an extremely successful lady that is extremely career driven and willing to do whatever it takes to make it to the next level or are you more attracted to a lady that is happy at the level she is at and takes the next step as it comes? To put things into simple terms would you rather a 9-5 lady or a 9- whenever the job is done lady? Explain why please.

Question: do guys like glasses on women?

Ugh. So much work. 😩

I loathe Monday morning meetings. We have a monthly team meeting at 8:00am PT and it makes me so mad! 😂 It’s always on a Monday, and I have the hardest time getting motivated for them. Normally I wake up at 6:30am, check the news, stocks, shower, eat breakfast, get dressed and start answering emails at 8am.. no speaking meetings until 10am. However, on the team meeting Monday’s, I’m scrambling to do my morning routine and get setup to present/share my screen.. I hate them. We all hate them lol!

Going back to work tomorrow after a 2 week long vacation. Scared to check my emails 😭😭😭

I wish you could leave a text message unread. Sometimes I forget to respond when I first receive it.

Watching Thor Bradley chop wood and talk dirty to tree stumps on Tiktok has me down astronomically 🥵🥵🥵 I too wish to leave thirsty comments like "you could split me open with just one try" on his videos lol like men on Tiktok have really mastered the art of thirst traps from the female gaze

I need help. I constantly pick at my beard for the last two years. It is creating holes and looks terrible. How can I solve this. I tried a number of things to keep my hands busy. Also how can I grow my beard thicker?

Debating if I should have domino’s or chicken quesadilla for dinner tonight?
