Trying to date while in biglaw will be the death of me. Can’t believe another talking phase is going down in flames and I have to try to bill 8-9 hours today instead of getting under the covers to cry

It’s okay, my last boyfriend told me to call when I had time for a relationship. It’s just another litmus test of who is the right one and who isn’t.

We’ve been making good time for each other! It just isn’t working out for other reasons. A shame bc I really liked this one. And sorry to hear that, I hope you’ve found an amazing person since then

It’s a talking phase. Get some perspective.

Thank you guys :) Really appreciate it. I know I’ll get over it. But yeah I’m just so tired at this point. And I really liked this guy. And I also have a dog so trying to juggle my high-energy dog, dating, BL on my own.

Married mine at 10 years after delaying bc I was terrified of the planning overwhelm. Highly recommend signing the papers sooner for the tax savings, then doing the big event when you’re ready! The tax savings paid for our actual wedding!

Sending love and support! Tell your friends and family to set you up. I have multiple BigLaw work friends I’m always looking out for.

My friends don’t know any single ppl alas

Never talk to just one guy while in the talking phase. That way you never get that attached to any of them and the right one clearly outshines the others. 😎

Ah. I get the time crunch thing but it doesn't have to be an hour long date each time. The first date is just a vibe check. It could be 20 min over coffee and bagel in the morning on the way in to work. It's a numbers game. How can I see the most people to weed out the ones who can't cut it the fastest?? Don't focus all your free time/energy on that one person either. They can feel it.

I feel the same! 6th year in big law so I’ll just focus my energy on buying a house this year lol

I moved back in with my parents almost a year ago to keep saving $$. It’s about 30 mins from work, and the drive is getting to me. With rent at where I live (I’m in San Diego), it doesn’t make sense for me to rent again if I move out… I currently live in the suburbs and with my DP, likely can get a reasonable mortgage in a 2b2b place closer to the beach. Unfortunately, buying a house in this almost impossible market appears to be a more attainable goal than finding a hubs ugh 😩

Has anyone here moved from advertising to tech?
Would love to hear from a marketer about their experience getting into Google.

Interviewed for a sr. PM last Thursday. Was scheduled for 30min but we went to an hour and had a really good conversation. The questions I got asked I was told the answers were perfect by the hiring manager. I felt really good coming out of it but then followed up with an email thanking them for the time the next day and I never received a response or next steps. Am I thinking too much into it or is it not a good sign?
