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 lot of success with the extended friend circle. 

Do you still use apps? I'm west coast but I find it to actually be pretty easy to get looks, since most of the guys are bums in flip flops even if they make twice the money I do hourly.

Define "dating app"  Depending on that I might or might not have used one to find my SO.*  We're currently getting a place together.

*Those of you terminally online here enough may be able to guess what "not exactly a dating app" I'm referring to. ;-)

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.

Before I met my gf.

- through friends (easiest)
- at the gym (works, after seeing each other for a few weeks you just say "hi")
- through hobbies and activities
- events at college, work, or business trip
- more rare, but also possible in certain locations (museum, a certain cafe, or other retail types like malls)

I was also based in L.A., now more East and Europe.

If you don't mind me asking, why have you had so many? Haven't found the one I guess

10 dates isn't a lot. Many chicks in big cities go on a few dates per month or more.
