I recently turned 30 and I really want to make new friends - but friends that can help me level up in life (intellect wise and in terms of life experiences). I’ve tried bumble bff before but Its super hit or miss. Im looking for girl friends who want to grow professionally, personally, and financially. Any recs on where you’ve found girlfriends in your 30s?

Any NICU nurses out there? How much are we generally making? I interviewed with a different hospital than where I am now (lower acuity) and they offered $8 more than I am making now. My HR team promised a match if I didn’t leave, so I stayed and 2 weeks later all they said they could do was $2 more. Thoughts?!

It was the most disturbing thing I've ever woken up from on so many levels.

I’ve been exclusively dating for 6 months. He’s never asked me anything to do with my career other than ‘how was work’. I don’t even think he knows what I do. Last night he made a ‘joke’ about me being a stay at home mom once we have kids. For context we are both Muslim but I was under the assumption that he was modern (we drink alcohol, have sex and so on). Honest opinion is this a red flag?

Asking for advice: Hi ladies, how do you tell your SO that you want private time with your friends/colleagues? For context, my SO and I have been living together for 2 years. He doesn’t have a lot of friends and is a quiet type. His current friends are all our mutual friends. We do enjoy spending time just us two a lot, especially during this pandemic. However, I do have a group of colleagues/friends that I’m close to and usually prefer to hang with them seperately. (cont. in comment)

Ladies, love to hear your thoughts. I’m in my late 20’s with a handful of close gfs (most of them live far) but I have a history of losing girlfriends. I’m self aware to a fault and am very supportive/responsive but other than my core group, it’s hard for me to keep gfs around other than 6 month span. It’s happening to me again right now and it’s really hard, she’s going through something and pulling away/towards others when we have been VERY close before. Anyone else have this experience?

A friend of mine was broken up with right as I was getting in a relationship. She’s very down so when we hang out, I typically don’t bring him up/share details the way I normally would. She’s only met him at 3 group events over 2 months & she’s been very accusatory of him if we show up late for any reason. It feels like she’s projecting all of her negative feelings onto him. I don’t want to walk away from a friendship, but it seems like she just wants me to be single again. Any advice?

Hi ladies! An old chestnut but would still love to hear your advice: i am fairly certain a key senior stakeholder is being difficult because he perceives me as a senior non white woman trying to boss him around. I have heard that he doesn’t like to surround himself with people cleverer than him in fear of them taking over his job, which to me further confirms this is a possibility. What can/should I do? TIA!
