This Indian matchmaking show is interesting...love how the first girl is like “my partner needs to fit in my life” 😳🙄😳🙄🤭

Some annoying dude I didn’t like in college just joined my firm & keeps trying to message me. Do I ignore or what lmao

I saw my friends text messages (iPhone) and saw that she was texting a guy she shouldn’t be texting. She told me that the “Maybe” function on her iphone is glitching & the wrong name shows up. Cont.

I’ve been hooking up with a guy off and on for a little over 4 years (met right after a break up) and early on set the boundary that it’s just sex. Recently told a friend abt him (we were out she wanted to know who I was texting/who was picking me up) & now she’s trying to convince me that I’m just in denial (and so is he) of having feelings for each other. He’s a good guy, has his life together, and we have fun, but I don’t get why the arrangement we have is a problem/needs to be changed??

Stories of a Jax night out?

I'll go first: on a last night out for a navy guy I'd dated for like 6mo he dragged us to king street where i never enjoy, at the bar w the toss the ring game a couple was fucking in the bathroom and the guy in front of me in line was mad about it taking so long so he started banging on the door trying to break it down and started to fight them when they came out. So we escaped to kickbacks where a customer threw a drink at the waitress who subsequently pulled a 🔪

Is it irrational for me to get an “ick” for this?

I went on a “date” recently. I paid for the tab as they were going to the bathroom. As we were leaving they said “thanks for lunch” — I was hoping they’d at least ask to Venmo me half as a kind gesture. Following lunch we grabbed dessert. I was hoping they’d offer to cover dessert since I covered lunch but it didn’t happen.

I am fine w/ paying but I was hoping the gesture would at least be presented… am I crazy?

Has anyone been to the Zoolights at the Zoo? I have never been, I'm relatively new to the area. Is this a good event for a casual walk around date night?

Welcome, friends! I created this community to meet others in the city during these strange times.

This will primarily serve as a safe space to meet friends. If your vibe is more on the dating end, that's fine too.

Let's be kind, inclusive, and respectful. I've already met some of you in person, looking forward to meet more folks here!

Got a date with a girl I've admired for a while this weekend, where should I take her? Best romantic/fun date spots, ideally with great food or near great food. She has no dietary restrictions as far as I know. Thanks

I'm curious how many 🐠 actually manage to date new people when travelling 4/5 days each week?

Say I had a “friend” who gained 15 Covid lbs but is still on dating apps with old pics. Is that considered catfishing? She’s not overweight, but not fit anymore. Still good looking...she suspects. Is it best to update the pics? Or get on a BBW dating app? Definite fear of rejection at meeting. Thank God I’m asking for a friend because this shits embarrassing to type.

Grinder is so much more convenient for hookups. Anything similar for straight men?

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?

Up late working on a pitch. 5 beers in. AMA.

New boss is way too serious and can’t take a joke. What to do?

When I downloaded Fishbowl over a year ago I had impostor syndrome and was worried all the successful people here would look down on me. Seeing so many people with high ranking titles relate to my everyday life made me more confident to just be me.

We're all insecure, meme loving, pot heads just figuring out life together 🥹 ❤

Can I over boil my pasta water?

What do consultants do? I see Consultant titles pop up on here all the time and wonder what do y’all do? What are you consulting on? Seems interesting but i I googled and am still confused.

I was about to talk trash about my truck driving friends and blame them for my heatwave related problems. Then I remembered that I drive an SUV, not zero emission, and I'm not doing much better for the environment than they are. I'll just ask them what if the climate change believers are right and see what they say.

Question: do guys like glasses on women?

I think I’m ready to be a housewife. So tired of this 9 to 5 grind 😩😵‍💫🤧

AITA: Everyone waves or says good morning at the park I go to on the weekends to run/bike.

The last few weeks I’ve started to avoid eye contact (looking straight/down/away) to not have to awkwardly smile at random Susan and Harry while I’m working out.

We’re at the same park at the same time, why do we have to greet each other 🤷🏻‍♀️

Am I regretting offering to stay back to monitor this data? 🤡

This is a pretty weak confession, but didn't know where else to post it. Made a little LinkedIn faux pas, I thought I was clicking on a button to accept someone's request to connect, which I was happy to do. But, LinkedIn tricked me and I was clicking to request they connect w me, which I just would not have done... Didn't see a way to undo that.

I bought 5 lobster tails today and a 2 pound bag of shrimp and just went to town dunking everything in melted butter. AMA

What work/life event (if any) made you arrive to the conclusion “this is just a job”? How old were you? At what point in your career / How many years of tenure?
How did your attitude towards work and work-life balance change?
Have you ever revisited or regretted your conclusion? Why/why not?
