Squid Game Season 3's Ending (Spoiler)

What are your thoughts on Squid Game S3's ending? I was really rooting for 456 to leave this game with the baby 😅 The star that carried this entire season was that transgender. Hated 333 for killing her. It would be more interesting if that tranny made it all the way to the last game so that we can see 456 n her having a hard time deciding who should jump frm the tower.

Do guys still expect their partner to cook?

I noticed that the guys that I've been chatting with don't ask me if I know how to cook anymore. Just curious if they've finally accepted the fact that most girls dunno how to cook/ don't want to cook 🤣 or guys would rather cook themselves as a lot of guys know some basic cooking skills these days. Would love to hear yr thoughts on this.

Shifted Energy on First Date

So I got to know this guy frm a dating app n we've been chatting with each other for the past 1 week via texts. Eventually he asked me to meet up but I told him that I wanted to talk to him on the phone first to familiarise myself with him. We had great chemistry on the phone with a lot of bantering n we flirted a bit. Based on these good vibes, I thought it'd be OK to meet up with him.

However, the energy totally shifted during our 1st date... It felt more like a friendly meet-up. I felt no sparks at all n the way he talked to me gave me a platonic feeling. He's told me that he's an introvert so I'm not sure whether he was shy, nervous or just wasn't into me at all. And somehow I also got the "ick" when he told me that he's in a talking stage with another girl. I do understand that we're free to talk to other ppl but I couldn't help feeling that way.

So that night I asked him if we're better off being friends since his energy had shifted. Then he told me he's normally like that when he's meeting new ppl. Finally he told me that we should just be friends. Was he wasting my time or he wanted to take his time to get to know me better?

Don't Wanna Be A Manager

Was reading an article about Gen Z not wanting to be managers these days as the rewards/benefits don't commensurate with the stress n responsibilities that come with this job.

I'm a millennial but I can empathise with them coz when I became an assistant manager a few months ago, I didn't know just how it'd take a toll on my mental health. Had to attend endless meetings that left me very little/ no time to meet urgent deadlines daily that nearly made me wanna jump frm the 14th floor coz I didn't have any subordinates helping me (my company was still considered new so didn't have the budget to hire subordinates for me).

This experience taught me that no amount of money in the world is worth this kinda stress. Would rather be an exec forever as long as I can have work in peace. Has anyone of u passed up the opportunity to become a manager because of this?

Do you mind if your gf/ wife earns more than you?

Recently watched a video of this guy conducting a survey among Msian men on whether they mind if their gf/ wife earns more than them n about 80% of them don't mind. On the surface, it shows that we're more open minded now. However, some guys did confess that they don't mind coz it means they can split everything with their partner 50-50 🤣 I do think it's OK to split 50 50 but it shouldn't apply to everything right? What are your thoughts on this?
