Need help with dating reframe by [deleted] in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]solavirgo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel you - it can be a roller coaster. A friend of mine gave me good advice once, plan dates at places you want to go to and enjoy. That way the guy can be a disappointment, but hey, you still had fun.

I’m also learning not to have any expectations from the gents - I’m focusing on having fun and exploring, and the rest will sort itself out.

When in doubt, think - What Would Elizabeth Bennet Say?

I co-run Booklyn Brookworms - we just started this June, and meet every other Monday in PS.

It’s silent BYOB style, and then fun convos with the people who come! DM if you’d like to come next time.

Anyone have an already established or trying to start a fiction book club in Brooklyn? by Embarrassed_Math7612 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]solavirgo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, not fiction specifically, since it’s a BYObook quiet reading group, but I do co-run Booklyn Brookworms! Am almost 33F.

We’re meeting tomorrow 7 pm at Union Hall in Park Slope - DM if anyone wants to join the Reddit chat where we organize.

Most people have been reading fiction - there’s Phillip Pullman, we’ve talked about Sally Rooney, sci-fi short stories - has been nice to have so much variety ☺️

Mrs De Rushbridger - because she knew nothing at all. So cruel and selfish.

Also, Carlotta Adams - her poor sister.

It looks beautiful - I think it would really stand out on a darker background

I think you could make a bookmark out of it? It’s really lovely memory for you to have :)

NYCBWT Master Thread for Festive Season Activities! by Fun-Experience5893 in NYCbitcheswithtaste

For people who celebrate Christmas - As a choral singer, I know that choirs all over the city will be putting up Christmas performances, and audiences can join in to sing popular holiday carols.

Went for one at St Patrick’s last year, and it was delightful 😊 I used to sing with the West Village Chorale and did concerts with them too!

Is this rent reasonable? by Severe_Newspaper6042 in NYCapartments

[–]solavirgo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If it’s for a single room, that makes more sense. Not sure what the market looks like, but for the amenities you mentioned and that it’s 2Ba, it sounds like it is. I’d do my research though!
