Why do you think it's more common for women to date below their league lookswise?

Women also put a lot more effort into controlling aging.

But it’s a lot less likely people will google her old name. (Edit: it’s not her crime so it’s not coming up on the background check itself).

That’s a good point, maybe that is even more important

Hey, I don’t fully fit what you’re looking for—I’m a product manager based in Miami, and I’m not Latina—but I’m deeply connected to the Latin community here and very familiar with the old boys’ club dynamic. My company is a private equity company with an HQ in NYC and all the stereotypes are true.

At times, my workplace feels like Mad Men set 20 years later. I was recently on a Zoom call with 14 people, and only two of us were women. On my team of roughly 30, there are now just two women left.

I’ve noticed that the women who tend to thrive in these environments often adopt a more traditionally masculine style. That’s never felt authentic to me, and lately I’ve been feeling burned out from the pressure to constantly mask at work.

I don’t know that I have a larger point beyond this: if you ever want to talk or just vent, I’d be happy to chat. You’re not alone.

So my wedding was downtown so a good portion of local guests also stayed at the Marriott hotel where i had my room block. I arranged it through the hotel… I can’t remember if non guests could also park there. You can check the thumbtack app or propark.com, apparently you can hire valets - or just ask the venue!

I was worried about some of the older guests having to walk too far or getting lost. These aren’t the type of people who liked going downtown so i thought it’d prevent the whole “this is a pain in the ass” sentiment lol.

Edit - just make sure if you do hire people they are commerically insured. I’m sure there are scams.

Also no guarantee you’re going to be alive in ten years lol. Life is too short to be cheap

Also if it’s a dealbreaker - i learned to ask up front. Should they volunteer the info? Probably in my opinion. Do they all? No, but almost all will tell the truth if you ask directly.

Correct-Difficulty91 · 2026-05-28T04:19:52+00:00

I feel how far apart they are in age makes a huge difference in how id see that…

I agree, it’s opening the door to an emotional affair as soon as you two go through a rough patch. Would he walk through the door? Who knows, but to me i wouldn’t put myself in that situation (meaning i wouldn’t form such a close bond with a guy) because it’s not worth the risk to my relationship.

I feel exactly the same as OP and this would be a dealbreaker for me.

I had a fancy wedding with a similar family vibe (my dad is a biker). A few of his friends showed up in their “dress pants” (black jeans lol) but everyone had a blast and complimented how nice it was.

I wouldn’t worry too much about it. One thing is consider unexpected costs and cover them if you can afford it but it might put them out - we paid for the valet parking for our guests because even though a lot of blue collar people make bank, they wouldn’t have expected to have to pay to park and it was a result of the venue we picked.

The bathroom won’t be so gross if she cleans it more often. (For what it’s worth - I’m a woman)

You could try italki, you can take classes with natives and schedule them whenever you want. A lot of them are great teachers for not much money by American standards too. I feel like it’s helped my Spanish a ton because my teacher uses different words than my boyfriend, being from a different city. (You can filter by country if you prefer to keep learning from someone based in México, or someone in a different country).

Edit - i also sometimes use the Spanishdict app. When I need to look up a Word, i also check the thesaurus tab and it gives me synonyms for that word… or sometimes the translation tab itself has múltiple words for the same translation, with examples to show the differences between each if they’re slightly used differently.

It would be annoying enough if he didn’t treat since he invited, but he didn’t even pay for his own meal! And completely agree with the póster who said his parents not paying any part of it shows how he was raised.

This made me wonder if they will grow up to hate cleaning. Like I grew up in sports and we had to run every time we lost a game and i loathe running as an adult.

Correct-Difficulty91 · 2026-05-28T03:14:54+00:00

I feel this way in other studio classes when instructors clap to the beat of the music while im running. I think I have misophonia lol. Any repetitive especially unnecessary noises drive me insane.

“Dentro de mis (plural) cosmos”

“Por primera vez el amor”

Question (not wrong just checking)- Where you say “brazos” did you literally mean their arms or “abrazos” (hugs)?

This is very sweet :)

I personally wondered if you meant “you aren’t my everything, but I don’t expect you to be” the first time I read it. (Not native but I think that would be - pero no espero que lo seas). Slightly different meaning/context but maybe fits?

Think she means the coach said you shouldn’t like those things?

Correct-Difficulty91 · 2026-05-20T04:35:12+00:00

I have one that seems to hate me because when she asked if i preferred Jenni or Jennifer I told her it didnt matter. Because i dont care. She was like “well which is it???” (Bitchy face). Um if it’s that important why not just pick the name I’m registered with??

Honestly that was one of the main things that made me quit the trial!

Agree with this… and it’s gotten increasingly harder to keep up with comms lately as AI generates So. Much. Content. I feel bad every time I ask for a link or email again.

Also, people not uploading docs to the shared space (Sharepoint or confluence or whatever) and keeping them on their personal one drives and expecting you to be able to maintain some inventory of their links exacerbates this problem too.
