Navigating through 20s

You're 23-26, you're busy building your career, figuring yourself out, maybe finally getting your life together after the chaos of college, and somewhere in the middle of all that, you're also supposed to find someone? So I'm curious: How are you actually meeting people? Hinge-Bumble shenanigans? Through friends? Random encounters? Has anything genuinely worked for you or does everything feel like a grind? What makes someone a good date to you? Not the generic "be yourself" stuff, what actually made you think "yeah, I want to see this person again"? Was it how they talked, what they asked, the energy they carried?

Women, how do you actually want to be approached? What's the line between genuine interest and being weird about it? What's something a guy did that actually made you feel comfortable rather than on guard?

Men, same question flipped. Do you even get approached? If not, how do you deal with being the one to initiate? What would it look like if someone showed interest in a way that actually landed?

And the bigger one, how do you go from learning to love yourself to actually being ready for someone else? Because I feel like "work on yourself first" is solid advice, but nobody tells you when you're done working on yourself enough to let someone in.

tl;dr: How are you figuring out your relationships mid 20s
