It's a given that we are treated like Carp. My mother's side of the family are Azeri (folks who live in Azerbaijan) so I have been referred to as towelhead etc. particularly after 9/11. What helped me cope with it? The homophobic jerks.Has being verbally abused for your orientation made you stronger 💪 in other areas?

About month ago I was diagnosed with coronary artery disease (CAD) and had to go through cardiac catheterization to get a stent.
I am in mid 30s and it's unbelievable that i have got this. Have been quite down mentally for last few weeks, and don't think if I can sustain the consulting life anymore.
I am working hard to stop the progression of disease and potentially reverse it. Hope things work out.

Anyway to get GSAP approved before your eligibility? They changed the eligibility to 2 years of working prior GSAP to 3...

Suggestions needed. Got offer from other Big4s with same money offer. Got to talk to very great partners, and practices/work-life balance are very similar across all 3 firms. Currently more toward DT but only cuz I know more people there so I feel less nervous going there. When it comes to turning down offers, what other professional reasons can I provide?

What’s up DC?

I am in a long distance relationship with someone who is currently in B school. He spends pretty much all his breaks and holidays traveling with his classmates. Most of the time I am fine. But for some important holidays and my birthday, I told him we should spend time together. He just said it’s more important for him to bond with his classmates and ignore my ask. It’s really disappointing and I don’t know what else to tell him. Is that a reasonable ask or am I being dramatic?

How many of you are in an interracial relationship? And what are yours and your partner's ethnicities?Just wanted to do a quick poll :)

Any 🐠 attending the Pilgrimage Festival in Nashville this weekend?

After being broken up now for 14 months - I think I still love my ex. We were together 6 years, and never fought. I thought I would spend the rest of my life with him. I don’t know why I can’t move on. It’s my birthday weekend and I have plans all weekend, but can’t stop thinking about this. I’ve been out with lots of great guys, but I keep holding on that maybe… one day we will be together again. Then my ex texted me today to let me know he and his new fiancé are moving to (cont. below)…

I grew up in a nuclear family away from extended relatives who were never really close. Parents were either emotionally unavailable or distant. All I've wanted for myself was a big loving family to call my own.. my parents are unaccepting of my sexuality & my partners family is also quite fucked up so she's isn't super close to them either. Honestly this sucks & it feels like I'll never have a huge supportive family I've wanted & craved for.

Only recently started being out/comfortable being bi, but overcoming a lot of self stigma. Others seem so secure in the LGBT world already, it leaves me terrified how/where to begin. Help?

I have an interview with McKinsey on Monday, any tips/suggestions?

How’s it like being gay in Singapore?

I know this is very stereotypical to ask here, but did anyone watch the latest episode of White Lotus? DM me! My friends are watching it tomorrow and I need to get my thoughts out!!!!!

Almost midnight here and I'm cleaning my medicine cabinet so I can reboot having a regular skin-care routine. I'm listening to one of my favorite musicals, "Ragtime", specifically the song "He Wanted to Say". Living 9 time zones away from home out of the US and watching the BLM movement there, unable to do anything concrete about it from here - this song I've listened to countless times, today about brought me to tears.

I really don’t mean this to virtue signal - just wanted to share a moment.

Has anyone ever been in a mostly platonic relationship? I don’t like to label myself much, but I don’t really like intimacy and don’t really like romance. Some people would say I’m asexual/aromantic, but unless that too is a spectrum, I don’t think I fit squarely into that group. As I get older, I’m realizing I’m feeling very lonely. It would be nice to find someone, but have it be platonic (any gender/sex). It’s weird, I know. It’s hard to articulate as well. Can anyone relate? 😭😭

Has anyone hooked up with a project team member? There’s some weird interactions going on here between me and another. Not sure how to navigate. Also, he’s hot.

Every single project I'm part of is filled with 30-something engaged or married guys who are straight. I give up

Does anyone else find themselves befriending hookups? I seem to do it naturally, but then it adds a new dimension of complication to the friendship (even if both parties don’t want a relationship). Is this normal?

Well 😒 accidentally gave up my rose on hinge to the wrong dude. Was saving it for “the one.” Now this guy keeps texting me. He seems okay - I figure I should prob at least do a coffee date. (Or, Maybe a make out session and some heavy petting in the corner at starbucks? Is that still a thing for first coffee dates?) Will also wear the cologne im buying this weekend! I don’t know how long it takes for my rose to grow back on the app.
