I wouldn’t detail that in the dating app if you’re a guy, even if girls are open to something casual, it can come off as sleazy and rub us the wrong way — leading to a left swipe. Just be transparent that you’re not looking for something serious on the second date. If you’re a girl on the other hand, then I’m sure guys are all for that sort of thing on a dating app.

You haven’t invested all that much after one date... things are still casual, so yeah I’d expect someone to be cool with that. A lot of people date casually, so you’re making a lot of assumptions if you’re already looking for something longer term after 1-2 dates.

I think it’s better to be upfront so people know just how much emotion to invest. Also, I find that when this happens, both parties are more organic in their mannerisms + conversations.

So I have been seeing a guy for 4 months. We have a pay disparity.. he earns less than I do (by quite a bit). He has mentioned a few times that he’s worried I’ll get bored of him when I know he can’t afford the same things I can. I think we are beginning to move past this, but now he’s starting to mention things like ‘I am really broke this month’, and last weekend he told me his mum has lost her job and he’ll have to probably pay her rent. I have a lot of sympathy for his situation … tbc

Question that could belong here or in the Relationships bowl:

How do women prefer to be turned down if the guy they’re pursuing is not interested. I know men have the capacity to deal with rejection poorly, and I’m not suggesting otherwise. But in my anecdotal experience , women take the gentle “no thanks, not interested” poorly.

Hey, another question for y’all. How should I reach out to a recruiter who offered me a full time position but I rejected for a better offer?

Now, a year later I have experience being in a role with limited over site (not as scary as I initially thought it would be) and feel confident I would excel in the role I rejected. How would you approach this situation? Thanks in advance!!
