My friend is dating a guy who told her he feels no sexual chemistry. They’ve been dating for 1 year and he hasn’t said I love you yet… is this normal? Why hasn’t he just broken it off with her?

Why is your friend with him if he’s shared that?

Not trying to put blame on her but just curious

Sounds like he likes to have someone, but isn’t head over heals for your friend. Def sounds like the type that’s afraid to be alone. I’m sorry for your friend, but she deserves to be with someone who loves her.

Honestly, a lot of guys want to have someone, so he might be waiting until he's got someone else before he breaks up with her. Super sh*tty, but I've seen it happen a bunch of times.

I had a friend who’s now husband said I love you for the first time when he proposed to her 3 years later 😂

I know a guy who told his gf that. They are now engaged and all he ever does is talk about how much he hates her to anyone who will listen (including coworkers and mutual friends) and misses having sex w his ex. He’s just incredibly insecure and kind of a terrible person. I feel bad for his fiancé.

I'm wondering if there's something deeper. It could be societal and familial pressure and expectations to settle down. However, does his fiance know what he says?

Recently I got invited to an interview with a decent growing company. I work in Executive Search and I am thinking of switching to in-house recruiting.

Was I wrong to expect in-house recruiter to understand the differences and similarities between in-house-recruiting, professional search and retained executive search?

Im in a junior position, have excellent feedback, work hard. I make very little $. I had 2 job offers and told my current company I couldn’t afford to stay there. They immediately matched. 4 months later I followed up and the timing of the adjustment will now align with the timing cost of living increases for inflation which apparently I’m ineligible for. Should this exempt me from a cost of living increase due the adjusted salary 5 months after we agreed to this?
