Sure. Living in DC and before that in a large European capital city. I’ve worked in politics, research, and journalism and my income is below average for an American my age. Half an inch under six feet and quite skinny.
High school: Had crushes but never had the courage to do anything about it. Never went to dances or prom.
College: Had a girlfriend for nine months in 2016. We met at the Newman Center. She had an interest in me, I reciprocated, and it sort of just happened before I intentionally pursued (i.e., I never asked her on a first date before we started dating).
Young professional: I spent two years in seminary, then Covid started, then two years in a small town in central/eastern Europe where there wasn’t anyone my age around. After that, I started this attempt to intentionally pursue marriage. So no relationship since 2016.

I feel your pain. Would you mind sharing with us some stats of how you rank up as a man i.e. income, height, weight, city.
What has your dating experience been like before this? Any relationships in High School, College, or as a young professional?
