Preparation
Read the following texts:
- Coupling for Decouplers - Jacob Falkovich
- Markets in Dating - Jacob Falkovich
- Dating: Accordions Vs. Sitars - Aella
- Nice Guy Anti-FAQ - Damon Sasi
What will we do?
We will split into small groups and discuss the above texts. Then we will share dating and relationship experience and give advice to people who want advice. If you want, you can bring specific scenarios, stories or text messages to share and discuss.
Given that the topic can be very personal we will try to create groups where everyone feels comfortable with the other people. This means that re-mixing groups may be hard and that people who seldomly come to meetups may be at a disadvantage, so please take that into consideration if this applies to you.
Organization
You are worried you have nothing to contribute? No worries! Everyone is welcome!
There always is a mix of German and English speakers and we configure the discussion rounds so that everyone feels comfortable participating. The primary language is English.
This meetup will be hosted by Omar.
There will be snacks and drinks.
We will go and get dinner after the meetup. Anyone who has time is welcome to join.
