ACN struggles with the "client service firm" and "we are not a dating firm"

I'm a manager, he is a senior manager and I definitely swiped left. His last message was, "so should I ask you out on Bumble or would you prefer Skype right now?"

Kinda bummed. I’ve been single for 6 years (I’m 31 now). I live in ptown and talk to guys in Boston on tinder. Was talking to a guy for about a week who is my type. I asked if he wanted to FaceTime tonight and he said sure but caveated that he isn’t into long distance (ptown to Boston) and that we would most likely stick to chatting. Idk what’s wrong with me. Everyone tells me I’m a catch but guys I’m attracted to are never into me 😭 just needed to vent
