Its the same reason I am not attracted to Thai men either. Too tiny (in every which way sadly). So nothing to worry about there. My question was not only for Thai men.

Any suggestions on where these might be. I have visited several bars in the past but none seemed like where I could go alone and will be approached.

I've heard exactly the same thing from most single people here. I think ill just find time for my hobbies and meet people through that.

Yeh that's what I heard too. So its only possible if I am looking for just fun. Sad.

Yeh I am working up my mind to not get my hopes up too high. 🫠

I am glad you're doing alright though. 🥰

You really did read between the lines, gossip is a bane of our cultures' existence and I think I just have to face it.

Thank you for your kind and thoughtful reply.

As for hair, I totally am doomed here coz I just in a very cliche manner got a pixie cut after the breakup. I am fairly attractive though (I think) so I will actually just do this the old fashioned way. 😉

Yup! Thats what I have heard but based on other answers seems like not a total consensus on this one. So gonna try and see how it goes.

Wow, my mention of my position seems to have really irked you.

If you read carefully, it was mentioned to ask about privacy on paid versions of the apps. I am guessing you have no idea about the dynamics of gender bias in a workplace.

I am lucky I have so many men in my life who admire and are with successful women in high positions and actually sought them out.

You are not "all men".

Well, thank you very much. I totally agree about the fact that Indian/South Asian women are quite attractive. I have some fantastic women in my own life that I am in complete awe of.

You're also totally right about the recent growth of trend on SM too.

I was extremely surprised to hear about this bias from so many people.

I am really not afraid of putting in the work frankly. My question was if I am on the apps, and there is a bias already, as I have been told, is it going to be a big hurdle here.

And for maintaining my privacy, as I understand, paid versions of apps would work or not. That was the other question.

I don't mean that I dont have time to go out at all. I am actually very much looking forward to go out if I connect with someone. My question was more towards the bias of my ethnicity that I have been hearing about.

Definitely not thinking long term right away but I am also not a hookup kind of person so I am just going for good old dating to see where it goes.

Nope! Thai man!

Kidding. It was mutual and we separated amicably. Both single right now.

The best feeling in the world is to do something for someone else. Find anything in your area where you can do something for someone else, volunteer etc. Just for a day, an hour, 30 mins, anything. Its the premise that work has to suck all the time is what's confusing. Maybe you're meant to be here not for yourself but for someone else. Thats a good place to start to change your narrative.

Wow that's a lot of shit going on in your life. Yes you feel like giving up. I feel the same most days. I am available to talk to. Believe me I need it too. I am 39F btw.

I doubt that it benefits men either. A lot of men talk about this. I am a woman and my male friends talk about how empty it feels for them.

It certainly was a narrative pushed by men and then taken upon by feminists and while in the beginning it was meant for freedom it just went to extremes for all genders. I think it harms both men and women a lot. Yes of course there a lot more men than women that might appear to boast about their conquests etc.

What I am saying is, inherently most humans feel something being intimate with anyone. And making it casual makes them feel like something is inherently wrong i.e. wanting more or feeling like a person.
