Why date marketing/fashion girls?
I've seen a lot of memes and posts abt finance bros going for marketing or fashion girls and am curious why that's the case. What's the appeal over a girl in banking/consulting/law/medicine that would make more and understand your hours and lifestyle better? No shade to marketing girls, I just don't...
Am I dumb for leaving NYC? / Dating / friends pool
Backround: 27 year old single male living in NYC (been here 3 years). Originally from a tier 3 city in middle America. Do not have an MBA. Currently in a toxic IB role I’ve been wanting to leave. Just landed a killer offer with a growth equity shop in Texas (where I went to college). I'm really...
How do you get dates? Age range?
So I really hit my stride the last semester of B school, along with a couple of my good buddies. Just felt really good, in good shape, fits were good, and felt like I had really little responsibilities having had landed the job and all. We were in the bars/clubs 2-3x a week, and I was also having a...
Crush on a colleague - advice needed
I am an Associate 2 at a BB in New York (male). Last year I met an Analyst (female) via my company's A2A networking event, and she turned out to be from the same university as me. We chatted for a while, but did not contact each other since then. Last month, she reached out to me asking for advice...
Rate Yourselves out of 10
I've been noticing lots of posts here related to dating and attractiveness and I'd like to see how we evaluate ourselves in this regard. My pet theory is that we all overrate ourselves, largely because we've developed big egos from being successful from an early age. Please consider everything that...
Women playing hard to get?
My early / mid-20s are coming to an end, and as many others do, have become increasingly sick of laying chum (shoutout Frank Reynolds) at the bar and the meaningless hookup that sometimes follows. Have increased my activity on dating apps recently as a result. I live in a HCOL city with a large...
Dating a Co-Worker (!)
Whats up everyone. Not an analyst like tag says, I am an associate (may or may not matter as you read the post). After the shock and awe of reading the title, I have a question about dating a co-worker at a big bank. I am not asking for advice as to whether I should, but rather, what kind of...

Why Have I Been Dating for Free When I Could've Had a Sugar Daddy?
Why Have I Been Dating for Free When I Could've Had a Sugar Daddy? I hate this, on so many different levels, and yet it seems like such a logical conclusion to the trends going on in society right now.
Dating high maintenance women
Came across this article today on high maintenance women. I can see the argument of the author that women need to "shrink themselves" so they don't seem high maintenance by people they are trying to attract. I know there have been countless threads on women in finance/alpha women but I don't think I...
Discovering my emotional problems through a relationship
Completely unrelated to finance, just needed somewhere to get this off my chest. From a very early age - and from the few times I even saw my parents together - I knew that my parents were in a completely loveless marriage. My father had multiple affairs (that I knew about) and was never home. My...

What is a healthy, loving, lasting relationship like?
I’m 23. Although I want a great relationship with strong marriage potential, the few experiences I’ve had have been mutually obsessive, jealous, controlling, possessive, and toxic whirlwind romances that imploded after a few years. I have considered being patient for a bond to materialize with...

Dating in Trading
As I seek out more trading opportunities, I also seek out dating someone. But most people I meet with on Tinder, Bumble, and all the others seem to offer lower quality mediocre people. I will be transferring to New York in less than a year and I wonder if it is even worth the time to seek out a...
Dating during corona

Hi all - I'm new here. Stumbled upon this site and I'm here for some advice (as a girl...though this might be a bad idea lol) I guess my question is for all those bankers out here, am I supposed to continue making the effort or from your perspective, because of your job, most of you are not...
Where do you meet girls?
For all those that are busy and dont have time to go out, where do you meet girls? I hardly ever time to go out and my logistics are also bad for going out so I have been cold approaching girls a lot during the day. I used to think the night club was the only decent place to meet girls but now I...
Tinder for Wall Street?
Is there a tinder for Wall Street people/finance types? Because if not, I'm seeing a market opportunity here. I'm envisioning something along the lines of a cross between LinkedIn and Tinder- like, if I'm going to date someone, I would do so solely based off their resume anyway. My issues with...
What would you think of an attractive woman with braces?
So I had braces when I was a Freshman in high school until my junior year but I later lost my retainer on a vacation and my teeth have since shifted. I am now, at the ripe age of 25, considering getting them again. I am an otherwise very attractive woman (it's true). I considered Invisalign but...

Dating Ugly Girls
A few nights ago, I stumbled upon a blog where a guy claims that sleeping with ugly girls is a better option than focusing on the hottest ones. The site was http://www.animusempire.com/do-ugly-girls/. I suppose he has some great points. Getting sex from less attractive girls may be less of a hassle,...
International Dating (Turkey)
So I met this Turkish girl who is super hot and super rich (pretty rich--family is probably worth $~25 MM) and really well educated (she's a secular, non-practicing Muslim). We're sort of dating now, but she's moving back to Istanbul at the end of this year. Does anyone have any insights into dating...

Getting a Normal Woman in Wall Street, Quality of Women in Wall Street

Types of Girls You Will Go On A Failed Date With: Part I
The days of college over. A college campus in Southern California was the best place to be in August/September. Blonde girls walked around with almost nothing on, with those oversize sunglasses, talking about which sorority they were going to join. Over those four years, I have gone on some dates...
Best b-schools for single straight men
Yes, I know that b-schools in general are not great for guys due to the gender ratio and the fact that a lot of women come in already committed to serious relationships. However, from my own personal experience and talking to numerous buddies at the top programs, I think some schools are just a lot...
