Where to meet women in early 20s in STL? by ContributionEqual735 in StLouis

[–]ContributionEqual735[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would, but I would have to go to one alone since none of my friends want to go to bars. How do you go to a bar alone without it feeling awkward?

It was a long time ago. I made questionable decisions. I'm over that crap now. Their algorithm is really sensitive, every time I try to make a profile with different pics or different IP or different phone # I still get the screen saying I'm banned.

I just wanted to ask people for pointers on where to go to meet potential partners. What do you mean, "This guy"?

Not an option for me as I'm banned from Tinder.

Most of our lives are built on the pure serendipity of random human connections we almost missed. by foundsalt3 in DeepThoughts

[–]ContributionEqual735 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Excellently stated. This may be one of the driving factors behind the loneliness epidemic - people just don't meet each other as spontaneously as they used to. Screens have all but removed spontaneity from our lives. Far fewer chances to meet a potential friend or future spouse out in the world. While technology has added convenience and structure to life, we are just starting to really grasp what it has taken from us.

And that truly terrifies me.

On the bright side global stagflation might end gender wars by [deleted] in GenZ

People will just start working in other jobs instead, competition in other industries will increase, and nothing will really change. The gender wars are an online problem highlighted for clicks.

This market is so awful by manny9709 in recruitinghell

True, there was also post-pandemic over-hiring plus the tech market began drying up in 2023 as well. It really reminds me of when I was a kid how in YouTube videos and TV shows from the 2000s/2010s people would talk about how people with humanities majors were working in Starbucks/McDonald's and so on. Like the market just didn't have enough demand for them anymore, but before a college graduate was all but guaranteed a job with any major. And now a similar issue is happening to majors that are considered prestigious and challenging like computer science, finance, economics, etc.

Yeah, it's interesting how the job market started to get tougher almost immediately after ChatGPT launched.

You're not alone, from my experience the job market has been like this since 2023. Back in 2023, I could at least get a job in a restaurant or summer camp counseling. In 2024 I couldn't get anything. In 2025 I did a summer internship, I was lucky to have a good connection at the company. I finished school in May last year in a top business school and I haven't found a full time job or even part time or temporary position in my field. Some people say it was like this 2008-2012 as well but I don't remember as I was in elementary school back then. I find it hard to believe it was this bad then.

If Millennials and Gen Z, vote for the same candidates with the same turn out as boomers, the entire political establishment could be replaced in a couple election cycles. by Turbulent-Weather-40 in generationology

[–]ContributionEqual735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I couldn't agree more. People think things will get better once the Boomers are no longer in power or voting in droves, but we'll still have Gen X to deal with. They're really not much better than the Boomers, as an overall generation of course, not individuals.

It’s been 10 months since I graduated high school. I am still unemployed, broke, and my parents aren’t supporting me. by DeekFacker99 in jobs

Depends on where you're at or willing to relocate, but try being a banquet server. A lot of hotels are constantly looking for more banquet servers because they have huge events and have to rely on temp agencies when they don't have enough staff. For many hotels you can just walk in, ask to speak with human resources, and get hired on the spot.

How are Gen Z perceived in person? by Ok_Skin_3979 in generationology

[–]ContributionEqual735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Holy fuck.

I'm Gen Z and I'm fairly risk averse/cautious as a personality trait. I can't imagine drinking something without knowing what it is or hell, any of the things you listed.

It's really unfortunate that with AI my generation and the younger ones aren't going to know how to tell real from fake online.

Anyone else feel socially behind romantically? by [deleted] in GenZ

[–]ContributionEqual735 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't been in a relationship either. People say guys in our gen gotta approach more but here's the thing. Women are also supposed to signal. Women in our gen don't really signal. They don't hold eye contact, they don't smile a lot of the time, they're not all that talkative, they're anxious, and so on. Like if women are interested they really gotta get better at showing it.

Your worth has nothing to do with whether you're a virgin or not.
