So there I was at Balthazar in SoHo, second date with a hedge fund guy who’d been nothing but decisive about everything—the reservation, the table placement, even which side of the booth I should take. Then the wine list arrived, and he slid it across the table with this expectant smile: “You choose.” I froze. … Read more
Look, I’m just gonna say it—when a guy you haven’t met yet starts asking for intimate photos, it feels like a test. And honestly? Sometimes it is.
