Perhaps if you interacted with them and engaged them as individuals instead of as a monolith, you might find that each individual woman you’re speaking with or having dinner with might have unique goals, aspirations, wants, needs, and expectations. But what do I know? 🤷🏻♂️

I think you’re missing my point. Just like your male friends and acquaintances are individuals, so are your female friends and acquaintances. The venue doesn’t change that, although I’d recommend not mixing personal with business. A business lunch is completely different from a dinner date. A woman you work with may not want to get personal if she draws a clear line between her work life and personal life. I’m saying that as a man who happens to do that. I have never dated a coworker, and I never will. Many people (both men and women) keep clear boundaries separating their professional lives from their personal lives. The fact that you keep lumping together business gatherings with personal gatherings tells me you might not have those boundaries, but you should respect others who do. If you’re making advances on women who simply want to work, that might be part of your problem. @KA9ha
