This story is from Sam, a 27-year-old student in L.A., as told to Raz: Wedding’s are a great place to meet girls, right? I say, wrong. At a friend’s weddings, I tend to assume that everyone is awesome because they’re also friends with my awesome friend. That’s the assumption that lead me to my experience […]

  Back by popular demand (and because I’ve received so many bad OkCupid messages that I’m starting to think these men know I’m collecting them), here’s a compilation of some of the best bad emails I’ve received lately. They are unedited, they are unfiltered, and they definitely didn’t get a response. 1. “So when are […]

I met Aaron on Hinge, my new favorite dating app. For those unfamiliar, Hinge sets you up with your Facebook friends’ single friends. It’s awesome because it feels less random than other dating sites. After all, you already have a friend in common! Anyway, Aaron seemed normal enough, and he was Facebook friends with a […]

This story is from Eliza, a law student in NYC, as told to Raz: It was the beginning of my first year of law school, and, in some of my more boring classes, my girl friends and I played a game where we made lists of those in the room we’d be willing to sleep […]

This story is from Sofia, a premed student in Seattle, WA, as told to Raz:  I have to admit, I was looking for a one night stand. I met Ryan on OkCupid and he seemed pretty cool. He was a computer science and applied math double major at Berkeley and I definitely find intelligence attractive. […]
