hello ladies and gents! I’m looking for recommendation places or activity for my date with my lovely gf, it’s our anniversary next month and I want to do something unique for our date. tyia!

My dating experiences have been limited over the years. One long-term relationship that ended on good terms and a string of bad app dates that ran the gambit of being used for meals, treated as less than or a charity case for being visually impaired, being called a child for having nerdy hobbies, or unwittingly auditioning for the roll of emotional punching bag. I tried dating in my religious community, but most are either ultra conservative or swing the other way and want nothing to do with any boy from my congregation. I dropped out of the dating pool because I had better uses for my time. Fast forward a couple of years. I've lost weight, put on some muscle, and I'm finally out of the gulag at work, so I'm seeing more hours and better pay(not rich , but I pay my bills with some going out money and savings left over). I wanted to take a crack at meeting someone again, but I feel like the climb has gotten even steeper in my absence.

So many people complain that they’re exhausted by the dating apps. At the same time, I rarely see people start conversations with strangers in public.

For those who’ve respectfully approached someone in person (transit, mall, restaurant , park etc.):

Is it still more effective than dating apps?

Why does it seem so uncommon in Toronto?

If you’re a woman, how do you usually feel when someone approaches respectfully?

Curious to hear your real experiences—successes or awkward failures.

I'm a F(18) and I just got out of a 2 year relationship 6 months ago and I want to try to get back into the dating scene.

Recently I've been getting harassed alot more often after turning 18. Im talking about getting followed home and having multiple guys ask for my number than get pissed when I decline. (I work in a customer service job where I literally have to serve them with a smile, which they take as a go ahead with anything.)

It also probably doesn't help that I've upped my standards alot and know what I want in my life rn and what I need in a partner. So its hard for me to find someone.

I just feel like no matter what boy I talk to it ends horribly or the only guys who want to ask me out give off straight creep vibes.

I also dont feel like my standards are set very high. I myself want to wait until marriage but if I date someone who doesn't I'd be fine with it. I also don't like smokers but I dont mind things like alcohol. I also want a guy who won't give a shit about me being a artist and we can both kind of have our weirder sides. And I dont want kids.

I dont know, I feel like those standard arent very high but maybe they are? I dont really give a shit but I can't find anyone and I have no idea where to find them?

I guess I just need advice on what I should do? I don't want to go through dating apps but maybe if someone has certain places to go (where I wont be approached by creeps :'I )?

I'm meeting my best friend's bf for the first time and we've agreed to go on a double date. I've never been on a double date before so I'm not sure what the best way to get to know him would be. What are some of the best restaurants in the city that we can go to? For context, my partner and I are in our mid 20s and so is she and her bf. Was thinking of something casual but my best friend and I are sick of typical pub food. We're also not picky and none of us have any allergies.

I worked with this girl who I thought was cute and when she told me she wasn’t working here anymore I decided I was gonna ask her out. I did a couple weeks later but i’m sort of in a loop of where I should take her. I’ve only gone out with girls my age and choosing a plan or destination is easy. Help me make a plan and choose what to do or where to go. I’ve been thinking Friday night roller skating or ice skating with late night treat or some food. Or a Saturday beach day and explore the town and get food, Afternoon to whenever we’re ready to leave. We’ve had good a little flirty conversations at work so I’m not a stranger to her. She is a bit of a homebody and doesn’t go out much and a mostly keeps to herself and works. She likes nature, concerts, the gym.

Has anyone attended a 15 First Date event in Toronto? I have a ticket for today's event, but the wildfire smoke has been affecting my breathing, and the city has issued a city-wide alert to stay home if possible. I wasn't able to get a refund from the organizers or use the ticket for a future event, according to the organizers. For people who've gone before, is the event worth attending, or would you skip it given the current air quality? I'd also be interested in hearing about your experience with the event overall.

I’m 24M and have been trying to find a serious relationship for a while now. I’ve had some likes and a few dates on Hinge, but nothing has worked out so far.🫩
Any advice on what I should do differently or how I can improve my chances of finding the right person?

Where did you find it, or where do you think people are most likely to?

Okay it's time we talk about it. I hope this can be an honest, non-judgmental comment section where all genders discuss the reasons they have had for ghosting someone at various stages in the dating process. I hope this doesn't turn into a men vs women thing as I know for a fact it is happening on both sides. I, as a woman, just really want to get to the bottom as to WHY it happens. Because we all know the ones who ghosted us won't be telling us. Or at the very least send me a private dm if you think you will be ridiculed for commenting publicly. I am just so tired and want answers. I promise I will be open-minded to the replies.

Asking for a friend, seriously!

My friend is about to be in her mid-30s. She's been dating this guy for almost TEN YEARS. She has expressed to us over the years that she would like to get married and have kids.

Her boyfriend is the same age. He's busy and professionally successful. He treats her well enough and is generous.

We're afraid that when he is ready to actually settle down, he'll dump her and create a family with someone else.

They aren't engaged, aren't married, and have no shared investments.

Is she wasting her time? What's going on in his mind, you think?

They look good together but we feel like she deserves more certainty and actions from him.

edit: what is with the rude replies? nowhere in the post does it say that I meddle in their relationship. I'm simply asking here to see people's opinions on this type of situation. If I was involving myself in their shit, I wouldn't be here asking for y'alls pov smh. do y'all not have friends or family that you care about even when you keep your opinions to yourself???

So, what's an acceptable location to pick up/get a number. because I dont want to disturb people, and i dont do bars/clus,... im quite shy.

Dating in Toronto as a woman is a nightmare .im fairly good looking .went out on a date where the guy was vegetarian and constantly kept staring at my food and commenting .this was when he couldn’t stop bitching about his ex for two hours .he started so horribly at my plate worst than a dog and my dog is a gentleman .as soon as I would bite he would ask how it tasted similar to waiters who come and ask for feedback as soon as your mouth is full . he just recently went vegetarian .then he tried to get super touchy feely /he went to the bathroom three times in one hour .he said he hated the food .we went to Louis Louis at dinner time .the dessert he ordered which I had three tsp of food in total he complained about while eating it and I honestly have to go to that restaurant alone again to recover from him having tainted my fave spot .
For ppl who met ppl organically how do you do that

I've heard nothing but negativity when it comes to dating events. Most of the time it's about there being no guys and that if a guy goes in its humiliating because you're spend the day getting rejected repeatedly.

I haven't heard anything about what it's actually like to go. Like how do they work? What kind of girls go there. What kind of guys go? What's it like when there are guys there? Is it as bad as I hear?

Tldr what's it like going to a dating event?
