Moving to NY in Aug for my MBA.

As a Southern European I have never been in US. What are the biggest differences on the dating scene?

How is it in Southern Europe? Then we can tell you how it’s different here

I don’t think it’s too different here - apps are primary method of dating and interests range from very casual to marriage. Still “old-fashioned” in the sense that women largely expect men to initiate, put in the effort, and pay for first dates for the most part. But perhaps less conservative in that it has become normalized, it seems, for people to date several people at the same time and getting to “exclusivity” seems to be a big topic people feel the need to actually talk about.

My natural instinct is to assume rejection if I have conflict with a partner or don’t think my feelings are reciprocated. I’ll try to bring it up with them, but I’ll say “if you want to end this feel free” so it doesn’t hurt me (and they can say what they really mean instead of sugarcoating). Someone told me today that they just assume I’m not interested because I always seem to “run” but I’m not sure how to bring up problems/feelings otherwise. How do you approach these hard questions?

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.

Have you ever taken a career slow down? I am feeling burnt out from COVID and the incremental responsibilities thrown my way over the last 5+ years. I feel like my health has deteriorated. I like my company, but I want to do less. I don’t need to be a HR Director, CHRO, etc. With a career slowdown, I am prepared for a lower compensation and would want decent benefits. Any lessons learned or success stories about career slowdowns?
