Bumble Boost, meanwhile, costs $9.99 per month and offers users the ability to extend the shelf-life of matches past the 24-hour cutoff point, as well as the ability to see who has liked you. 8 points 1 year ago. My first and only bumble date was terrible he wanted me to pick up him and his friends (I am not an uber) and then they started doing coke in my car. I dropped them off at a hotel walked inside with them to some party and then said I had to get my phone from the car and bolted. No walking dates. So from my previous experiences, guys who asked to meet at the park, last minute drinks, walking dates, etc. All told me they don’t want anything serious and they are just looking for casual, friends with benefits, no strings attached relationship. One guy told me he wants something serious and we met at for a 15 minutes. 8 points 1 year ago.

All you can do is keep rolling them and try not to beat yourself up second guessing. I get her number, and a time+place to meet up within the first 10 messages. That's usually 4-5 messages from me and 4-6 messages from her. If it's taking you longer, you need to hit the gym.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell re-emphasized the long path to economic recovery that still remains, saying that while the unemployment rate is nominally 6.3%, the true unemployment rate was probably closer to 10%.

These comments weren't enough to phase the Dow Jones Industrial Average, however. The blue-chip benchmark rose 61 points, or 0.2%, to finish at 31,437, a new closing record.

Dating app Bumble going public on Thursday. The popular online dating app Bumble is going public on Thursday, having outlined updated numbers on what it's seeking to raise in its IPO on Wednesday.

Bumble is offering more shares at higher prices than previously estimated; if Wednesday's numbers hold, the company may raise around $1.8 billion on Thursday, well above the roughly $1 billion it had planned to raise in older filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Bumble's initial valuation looks to be around $7 billion, which, although large, makes it just a fraction of the more than $45 billion price tag rival Match Group (ticker: MTCH) currently fetches.

Reddit turns to pot. It may be happening again. A contingent of traders on Reddit's r/WallStreetBets page have turned their focus to marijuana stocks. Tilray (TLRY) shares jumped 50.9% on Wednesday, just a day after roaring more than 40% higher. Other leading weed stocks like Aphria (APHA) and Canopy Growth Corp. (CGC) also advanced on Wednesday, adding 10.7% and 6.3%, respectively.

Twitter earnings impress. Monetizable daily active users on social media giant Twitter (TWTR) rose 27% year over year in the fourth quarter, driving revenue growth of 28%, far better than what analysts were expecting. A flurry of analyst price target hikes followed the report, helping push Twitter shares to 13.2% gains on Wednesday.

Use this next time you’re chatting with a cutie on the app!

I don't know about you, but to me, the hardest part of online dating isn't the matching, or even the actual dating. It's what happens in between: The messaging. Sometimes it flows and feels natural, but other times... yikes. The struggle is real. What I’ve learned is that having a few go-to questions to ask your Bumble match to kickstart the conversation if it starts to stall out can really help keep the conversation going naturally and save the potential match. Chances are, the person on the other side of the conversation is feeling the same way as you are, and will be happy you're taking the conversation in a unique direction.

Not only does it help to have a few back-pocket topics help keep the conversation going, but it’s also a great, subtle, and above all, fun way to find out if someone really is a good match for you. You can learn what their lifestyle and interests are without being all 'job interview' about it, which allows you to decide if their interests mesh well with yours. The same goes for their beliefs and values, which are also pretty important. Like, if someone hates cats, I need to know that from the jump so I can peace out before we meet face to face. (Sorry, not sorry, but not loving cats is a dealbreaker for me.) Best of all, it takes what could be an awkward, stressful part of dating apps and makes it actually enjoyable!

So, the next time you’re chatting it up with a cutie on Bumble and sense an awkward silence coming on, try a few of these questions to get the conversation flowing again.

The key with asking questions on Bumble is to get the person thinking and engaged, but also to ask questions that actually give you a chance to get to know who the person on the other end is. Just make sure to save a few of these for when you do go on that first face-to-face date. Just sayin’.
