I (34F) started going out with a guy (33M) from my Bible study. We've been on a couple in person dates having lunch and doing outdoor activities. He just told me he's going out of town for work so unfortunately we won't be meeting in person for a while. He did bring up zoom dates so we could keep meeting and such. However my question is WHAT DO YOU EVEN DO ON ZOOM WHEN YOU'RE DATING EARLY ON? The end of the last date got a little "interview-y" when he started asking a barrage of questions and asking "why" / "can you give me an example" / "how so" for almost everything I answered. It kinda killed the vibe, but I do want to give him another chance since it's early on and we're both nervous. He's also told me he's had trouble in the past making connections with people outside his family. I want to get to know him and have fun (cause dates are supposed to be fun, right?). I'm willing to give anyone a chance, bu...

I don't mean to sound pessimistic but almost every single person I've talked to has unironically told me that I might have a harder time than the average person when it comes to finding someone compatible for dating because of my lifestyle and I legitimately want to better myself (not in a "new year new me then gives up" way, I genuinely want to make the effort count). I am open to new ideas and want to end this on a positive note since having an optimistic mindset is pretty important too. What do you suggest?

So, I M26, am looking to sort out my dating life next year. I am from the UK and live in Canada, and my last girlfriend was prior to moving to Canada (which happened in the spring of 2023). I have found the apps to be so artificial and difficult to build substantive connections on. So far for the most part, dating apps have allowed me to get laid, however not build any connections and be a bit flakey at best. I have now deleted my hinge as I feel it has not led to anything, for the reasons stated above. I have quite an active social life, such as going out on the weekend to bars, but what other ways can I maximise the pool of girls that I can find be compatible? I am part of running clubs, but what were some of the other ways that I can fix my dating life? Submitted January 01, 2024 at 12:13AM So, I M26, am looking to sort out my dating life next year.

The girl (F24) I'm (27 M) currently dating has self image issues, self confidence issues, anxious attachment style has been suicidal before, went through divorce 1 year ago. Based on the story she told me the thing that shocked her was her ex husband telling her to go have sex with other guys. They were not intimate for 2 years prior to divorce. We've been getting intimate lately and closer, she's kind and caring, doing things that nobody has done for me before. What s bothering me is that she makes jokes such as her wanting to have sex with other guys, guys I know, guys from work or having sex with multiple guys. She s a great person but these jokes hurt me, I am a naturally jealous person. How should I deal with this?

So I (m27) met this girl (f21) one month ago and I am lost. At the beginning of the night/party we met, she reached me out and asked me if I remembered her. I told her no, because I couldn't remember her name or what discussions we had had, but I did remember that we had briefly met and that we had spent a while chatting in a kitchen with some other people. She reminded me her name and I apologized, as I was slowly remembering who she was and what we had talked about. The party continued and finally we kissed each other. Just after the kiss she ordered an Uber and we went to her home and had a hook up. The day after, I felt extremely happy and couldn't take her out of my mind despite a hard working day. So I decided to send her a message to thank her for the nice moment we had spent together. We chatted a bit and I told her I was not comfortable with having sex with someone and just forgetting them afterwards, that I wanted to know if we could meet again. She kindly answered...
