So I was hesitant to join this bowl due to the fact that I am not technically single yet. I am currently going through a divorce. I thought this bowl might be a way to meet people who could help me navigate the dating world (which is terrifying to me).

My CW was a NIGHTMARE to work with until I had sex dream about her. Now, I find myself being kind, patient, and jumping to her defense with others talk shit. Weirds me out, but sure made life easier 🤷‍♀️

Which is better. Dating apps or meeting someone in person?

Signed up for a matchmaking service a couple months ago after getting tired of the apps. And while I’ve been underwhelmed with their process so far, I finally have my first match date this weekend. Haven’t been on a date since pre-pandemic. And never been on a true blind date like this. Wish me luck.

My 30th birthday just passed and the first thing I thought was, "I'm so single. I'm going to die alone." I swear I'm a catch. Please date me 😭

With hot girl summer upon us I have rejoined Hinge and am ready to mingle. Curious to hear thoughts on if you would (or would not) go out with a new person you met off the internet based upon their vaccination status?

F fish here—I’m trying to be a better online dater. what are people’s strategy for online dating? How many ppl do you match vs talk to vs meet up? What are the best apps/date avenues? I find it hard to talk/go on dates with my matches cause I’m not a great texter and I’m not really feeling interested in people’s profiles (in person is way more interesting to me but I’m trying to be flexible with covid).

I went through my gf’s phone and found out she had a crush on my best friend when we first started dating (over a year ago). I suspected this at first but it hurts to have it confirmed and see her telling her friends about him. I’m not sure how I should feel since I went out of line to look through her phone.

Any 40F interested in connecting?

There are too many men out there who think that just because I'm being polite, it's a sign that they should flirt with me while I'm at work. I thought this was 2022, why haven't we as a society gotten past this yet?

Hope everyone is doing well. As we get closer to the end of COVID, I’d like to welcome everyone to post on this thread if you are looking for a tennis buddy. Feel free to list your location and level.

I matched with a guy and we initially agreed to meet for the first time this coming Friday. Last Wed, he sent two messages on the app with suggestions but I wasn’t able to text back until Sat because I was traveling. He unmatched me. Am I in the wrong here? How often do you text people in the talking stage? (F in early 30s here)

Any tips walking this tight line?

Hey All, I got an offer from company name MAESRK of 32L, does anyone know about the company and it’s work culture ?

When the IRS (e.g., a RO/AO/Examiner) calls or writes a letter… How do you verify that it’s really the IRS and not a scam? I’m new to tax law and I’m worried that I’m going to respond to/answer a scam and give away client info (or my own tax preparer info). I don’t think my worry is unfounded due to the tremendous amount of tax/IRS scam out there but it would be nice to hear from some of y’all so that I’m not so worried about it…

Also, help me calculate the in hand approx for this.

Hang in there, Singles, we got this! ❤️

Is there anyone still on here? Every post on here is from a very long time ago.

Wow...this bowl has grown to 75 members....but I would've never known based on the lack of interaction on here. 😂 Maybe Valentine's Day I'll do another check-in to see who's on here. (Shoot, there might be some married folks on here just trying to be nosey!! LOL)

Happy Valentine's Day, Singles! ♥️

So, Valentine's Day will be here before we know it. Big deal or nah? 😂

No one really talks in this bowl....but I was curious of our male vs female makeup. Female here! 🙋🏾‍♀️ Single, not in a relationship. What about you?

Welcome to the Single (Never Married) Teachers bowl. I'm sure the struggle is real out here and sometimes it's good just to have someone who's in a similar situation to talk to about our experiences.

Has anyone from this app ever slid in your DMs? 😂

So, how does a first timer go about getting involved in dating apps? How do I start and what’s a good one to use? Last time I dated, only Match existed!! 🙄 (long story, I’m not that old)

How was your Thanksgiving? Anyone else stuck avoiding all of the relationship questions?

Sooo...how was everyone's Valentine's Day? ❤️

Which dating apps do you think are the best? I'm thinking Match and Bumble.

Do you think a teacher dating/marrying another teacher is an ideal situation?

Ladies, do you ever correct students when they write your name as "Mrs"? Do you care? 😂

Is online dating the way to go during this time of social distancing?

I teach freshmen who haven't met the only other single teacher in my department. Today, I asked one of them to take something to him and immediately kids started talking about how we were dating. Ugh.

Has anyone ever been on an online dating site and saw one of their co-workers on there? 😂 🙋🏾‍♀️
