Looking for recommendations for a wine bar to have a serious conversation with SO. Preferably somewhere where we would not be seated very close to other people. Thank you!

Need to know what type of serious conversation first

likefunny

Are you breaking up with them? Don’t go to a bar. Alcohol will just make emotions run higher and you’ll both feel trapped. Just go sit on a bench where they can escape and don’t feel like they’re being watched.

Yeah don’t go somewhere you would need to wait for a check. Once they know what it’s about, they’re just going to leave. Don’t do this in public

like

A serious conversation can’t be had over things that will cause the mind to not focus, like alcohol.

It’s probably a bigger issue imo if you can’t have a mature conversation at home …

Oops should have provided more context. Not breaking up - just a heart to heart about the long term future and things like marriage and kids. We tried to have this conversation at home but always end up getting distracted by comfort of home and our intense physical chemistry. Have been together for six months. We have talked about getting married later this year but have had some relationship challenges.

I’m dying “due to our intense physical chemistry”. Are you 15 years old?

I don’t have any recs but I’m surprised so many people are against this! Especially with WFH, I find stepping outside of my space very helpful / productive for things that need big thoughts. I also don’t think having a glass of wine to pair with a big (and probably exciting!!) convo is a bad thing. Good luck OP!

The not sitting close to people often depends on the day of the week and time of night.

Does anyone have any tips? Feel free to get into my DMs.

As a divorcee with a kid, i find it extremely hard to find friends who can relate, or even making friends as it seems there’s a stigma attached to you because your relationship didn’t work out.

My fiancé moved abroad for med school. Long distance is hard but I love my job, the work, the people, and the culture. I wish there were roles where you could work abroad. I wish I could work here forever, but I’ll likely need to switch to a firm that allows working abroad at some point to save the marriage. I’m afraid to tell anyone because I want to maximize my time/contribution here. Thoughts? Advice? Does anyone know of good firms that allow abroad work?

I’ve been meaning to mention to my grandfather for a while that I have a boyfriend but I don’t want to make it like a dramatic coming out and it just hasn’t come up naturally. I haven’t seen my grandfather in person in over 2 years and I’ve been dating my boyfriend for over a year.

My immediate family already knows as well as my grandmother from the other side who lives with them. Should I just keep waiting for it to naturally come up or should I have an intentional conversation about it?
