So basically I (27m) finally went through my bloody PhD and got a decent job with a close to 6-figure salary, plus series of hobbies or skills i developed during my phd time, and i guess i am ready or have to get down to really experiment dating now.

earlier in my life i hardly ever dated (at least not in the modern sense like through dating apps, bar pick up, followed by make out, sex etc.) and only had a handful of romantic experiences, so i would really want some insights along this stream and see how i could get in the "game" and play around a bit.

i have done my resesarch, so physical appearance i could hardly change much now but generally i think i am above average (confirmed by several friends and colleagues as well); financially i think i am in pretty good shape compared to my peers.

i have hobbies, have fun, though might be a bit introverted or close to demisexual or sapiosexual bc of my education background lol.

i tried to go out to the bars or pubs recently thou found it hard to approach and actually made my shots twice by giving out my sketchings to the girls but did not ask for anything in return lmao.

so ladies and gentlmen, may i ask as a kinda old man to the game, if you might kindly provide some advice ?

thanks .

TLDR: 27m with little experience trying to get into the game after his phd, any suggestion ? thanks
