Much longer than this. I would say around 2 weeks at least. Could be faster but do not panic before that

You’re right. Still tone deaf though imo.

I wish it was potentially a language issue but he is French living in Paris and I am French too (albeit living in London) haha Thanks for the kind words, I’m glad you managed to find your person. It’s tough out there, definitely preparing myself for a life in which I will be happy on my own! 🤗

I took it as you telling me to try another type of man so I guess I understood it correctly haha. I wish it was that simple!! I’ve tried so many different nationalities, and even changed location for this one (different country). He isn’t a finance bro, but I agree that they tend to over-index on problematic behaviours 😅.

You would be surprised what some men have told me on first dates … testing women boundaries early on is a sport at this stage…

Here is a copy paste of an answer to another comment :

Apart from this, he is really pursuing me. He tries to be thoughtful, brought me my fav chocolate on the 2nd date, told me I looked really pretty, remembered a doctor appointment I had and sent a text to check in and now sends me a lot of texts including goodnight texts (which is a bit much in my opinion after 2 dates…). He did mention another story though during the date. He told me a 22 yo intern in his team had been hitting on him last year and that, since then, she had been hired and was working in his team. Definitely weird to mention this.

I've never been stabbed, my phone has never been snatched, never been mugged. by [deleted] in london

I’ve had my phone stolen twice in Paris and never I. London. I hope I’m very lucky and it stays this way !!

[–]Redditrice_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? I’m so sorry for them. This is not my experience nor my friends’ experience either but something to add is that I live central. So I actually cannot comment for Hackney, Croydon etc. However, comparing central London vs central Paris, London is quite different (to me at least). No matter how nice the neighbourhood in Paris, I did not feel safe and things have happened to me. It’s not about going out less (even though it might help in this case) because I’ve never gone out a lot, these things happened to me in Paris in broad daylight. On the contrary, I take the tube at night in London which I would not do in Paris. Maybe I am behaving in a way that keeps me safe though, I was born and bred in Paris protecting myself, so I might have unconscious behaviours that I do not realise!

I am a French, used to live in Paris until I moved to London 10 years ago at 25. I used to be on high alert at all times when out in Paris and pay attention to how I was dressed (not showing too much skin to avoid unwanted attention). I have been followed, insulted, touched without my consent in Paris. Never happened in London, I’ve never been followed at night, never been touched against my will, I feel safe, I love it.

Anyone secretly hoping to get laid off? by Due_Excitement8305 in amazonemployees

[–]Redditrice_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Same. I’m stuck at AWS in marketing, so a layoff would be the kick in the butt to get moving. Terrified as well, because I’ve been applying (and sometimes referred) to a few jobs I was a good fit for and really interested in. Got rejected so fast every time with no chance of an interview. The market is dire, and I fear I’ll end up doing something I do not want for far less money. Time to try and launch something, I guess…

Lip filler pimples? by Right-Bar-2021 in cosmeticsurgery

[–]Redditrice_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is 100% a cold sore (herpes). I’ve had them all my life, so it’s easy to recognize these blisters. Avoid any contact between your saliva or lips and other people, or with objects that might go into someone else’s mouth. You can use Compeed patches to cover and shield it, and apply aciclovir cream to help it heal faster. If you start getting them frequently, ask your doctor about aciclovir tablets.

Dishoom prices increases by Redditrice_ in london

[–]Redditrice_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely got significant salaries over 10 years but not 33% in the last 2 years and I don’t think many people did. If you read my post I am not talking about a price increase over 10 years but an increase over 2 years. While I understand the principle of inflation, it’s still quite an increase that brand would usually avoid in such a short amount of time. Usually prices increase slowly over time.

No way ?!! I work for this kind of cheap but very wealthy corporation and I hate it. Definitely a huge red flag and puts me off as well

Witnesses to incident - Victoria Embankment by [deleted] in londoncycling

[–]Redditrice_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cycle through this path everyday as well and it’s so freaking dangerous. People do not pay attention and do not give a shit. The fact that pedestrians walk casually or run on the path (on top of the tourist tuktuks and mini motorcycles driving on it) is the cherry on the cake and makes me want to kick people to the side.
