So many people live in NYC but still it feels like the loneliness place on the planet. Does anybody have positive stories from dating apps? How do you guys meet ppl in general?

Tough right now. I will only meet guys if we go to an outside bar but that will end in a few weeks once the weather gets worse. Dating in ny was special before covid and now it's even more complicated.

Is hinge the best one in your opinion? Been playing around with a few others

Don't love any of them, but hinge seems to be the popular one at the moment. What's your experience like?

Well, nothing positive. A lot scam there. It is just to hard a person you could bond in anyway. A lot of people pretend to be someone else or just the way they are in the reality. Also, it is hard to really get a sense of the person on another side of the chat because of lack of non-verbal communication. Based on my experience the best way to meet somebody is to do some common activity like go hiking or volunteer in a group of strangers. But, it is not easy in this time of the year.

Yes, I hear that. Luckily I haven't had scams. Volunteering is a good idea though. I need to do more of it. Who knows maybe I meet someone cool. Hmmm 😀

30 m ny/nj. US citizen. Moved as a teenager. INTJ. Single since I figured I’m not fighting the biological clock and have all the time in the world to meet someone and get settled. Things changed after I watched Akshay’s mom (Indian Matchmaking) tell him even 25 is too late and not marrying somehow messes up lives of people around him. While the show was staged, there might be truth to the latter part.

Today he asked me to send an email to him about how overworked I am so that he can use it to talk to management. (cont. in comments)

Hi all,

Do firms match offers from other Big 4s for campus hires? I’ve received a campus offer from both
KPMG and EY. I’m more interested in the EY offer, but they are paying 3k less than KPMG.

Would it be a bad move to let them know about the other offer and try negotiating? I feel it wont make a difference in the long run, but at the same time I don’t want to leave any money on the table if possible.

Thanks!
