25 Miami Bachelors You Need to Know: The Ultimate Guide to Finding Your Perfect Match

Hi, Friend! Jen Glantz here. I’m a bestselling author, the first ever bridesmaid for hire and have been hired by hundreds of brides all over the world. Let’s talk about miami bachelors.

Miami’s dating scene is absolutely wild – over 2.7 million people creating one of the craziest bachelor pools in the country. I’ve been navigating this mess for three years now, and let me tell you, success requires way more than just showing up at trendy bars hoping some gorgeous guy will buy you a drink.

When I first moved here from Chicago, I thought dating would be a breeze. Miami has perfect weather, successful people everywhere, and endless places to meet someone – what could possibly go wrong? Oh honey, everything. After countless awkward coffee dates and cringe-worthy encounters at South Beach bars where guys were more interested in their reflection than conversation, I realized I needed to actually figure out what I was doing.

What You Actually Need to Know Before Dating in Miami

Before we dive into the types of guys you’ll meet, let’s get real about what you’re actually looking for. Miami isn’t like dating in other cities – this place has its own rules, and if you don’t understand them, you’re going to waste a lot of time on the wrong guys.

Money talks, but it also lies. Let’s be honest – dating in Miami is expensive. If a guy can’t afford the lifestyle here without stressing about money, it’s going to create problems. But here’s the catch: that guy with the Lamborghini might be leasing it and living with three roommates. Miami is full of guys who look rich but are actually broke. The real financially stable guys? They’re usually the ones driving normal cars and not posting bottle service pics every weekend.

Understanding the dating landscape here is like how to meet someone at a wedding – it requires strategy and knowing how to read the room, not just hoping for the best.

What Matters Most	The Stable Choices	The Maybe Choices	The Risky Choices
Actual Financial Security	Doctors, Finance bros, Established lawyers	Senior consultants, Real estate (if they’re honest)	Artists, Students, “Entrepreneurs”
Cultural Fit	Latin American executives, Diplomatic guys	International business types	Local party promoters, Influencers
Available for Actual Dates	Government workers, Teachers	Corporate lawyers, Consultants	Restaurant owners, DJs
Planning to Stay in Miami	Real estate guys, Medical professionals	Local business owners	International students, Contract workers

Lifestyle compatibility is everything. Miami’s party culture attracts certain types, but you’ll also find guys who prefer quiet beach walks to club scenes. I learned this the hard way when I dated a music promoter who thought 2 AM was dinnertime. Amazing guy, but our schedules were from different planets.

Take my friend Sarah – she spent six months chasing entertainment industry guys at South Beach clubs. After dating musicians and promoters who kept vampire hours and had unpredictable income, she realized she actually wanted someone with normal human schedules. She started going to medical charity events and 5K runs near hospitals instead. Now she’s dating a cardiologist who actually texts her back during daylight hours.

Cultural differences can be amazing or exhausting. Miami’s international vibe means you might date someone whose family expectations and communication style are completely different from what you’re used to. This isn’t necessarily bad – some of the most interesting relationships I’ve seen involve cultural exchange. But if you’re not up for learning about different traditions or dealing with language barriers with his family, stick to the American-born guys.

Ask about their Miami timeline early. So many attractive, successful men treat Miami as a temporary playground rather than home. I can’t tell you how many friends have fallen for guys who were just here for “a few years” before moving back to New York or wherever. Save yourself the heartbreak and figure out their long-term plans before you get attached.

The Miami bachelor you choose should actually fit your real life, not just look good in your Instagram stories. I’ve watched too many women chase the wrong type of guy because he seemed impressive, only to discover they had nothing in common besides zip codes.

The Guys Who Live for Work (But Make Bank)

These are Miami’s business-obsessed bachelors who see opportunity everywhere and work like their lives depend on it. They usually have money and big ambitions, but good luck getting them away from their phones during dinner.

1. Tech Startup Founders

These guys (ages 28-38) are trying to make Miami the next Silicon Valley, and honestly, some of them might actually pull it off. You’ll find them at WeWork Brickell, startup events, and coffee shops in the Design District, always on their laptops looking slightly caffeinated and stressed.

Their whole world revolves around building something from nothing. Expect them to cancel dates for “emergency” investor calls and to talk about user acquisition metrics while you’re trying to enjoy your meal. The upside? When they’re not completely consumed by work, they’re actually fascinating to talk to and genuinely passionate about solving problems.

I once dated a startup founder who was so stressed about funding that our “romantic” dinners turned into pitch practice sessions. Sweet guy, but I needed someone who could actually be present. If you’re into ambitious guys who might be millionaires someday (or might crash and burn spectacularly), and you don’t mind competing with their company for attention, this could work.

Meet them at Tech Beach events or just camp out at Panther Coffee in Wynwood on weekday mornings. They’re all there pretending to work while actually networking.

2. Real Estate Moguls

Miami’s property boom has created a whole class of real estate guys (ages 30-45) who either have serious money or are really good at pretending they do. These men know every neighborhood, every development, and exactly which buildings have the best amenities.

They’re deal-focused and surprisingly good at relationships – probably because both require reading people and knowing what they want. You’ll find them at property showings, real estate networking events, and expensive restaurants where they’re “meeting clients” (which may or may not be true).

The tricky part? Some are legitimately wealthy property moguls, others are struggling agents driving leased BMWs. My friend Maria dated one who kept taking her to “his” listings for romantic dinners until she realized he was just using empty condos because he couldn’t afford actual restaurants.

3. Restaurant & Hospitality Entrepreneurs

These guys (ages 25-40) combine business sense with creativity, and they usually know how to show you an amazing time. Miami’s food scene attracts entrepreneurs who understand how to create experiences people crave.

Here’s the reality: their world revolves around nights and weekends when everyone else is relaxing. Your “romantic” dinner might happen at 2 PM on a Tuesday, and weekend plans often involve their venues. I dated a restaurant owner who was charming and generous, but I basically never saw him Friday through Sunday.

You’ll meet them at restaurant openings and food festivals. They’re great if you’re flexible with schedules and don’t mind dating someone whose stress levels are directly tied to Yelp reviews.

4. Finance Professionals

Brickell’s financial district is full of guys (ages 28-42) who are smart with money and usually have plenty of it. These investment bankers, hedge fund managers, and private equity professionals are analytical, goal-oriented, and comfortable with pressure.

My friend Jessica married a guy from Brickell’s finance world, and honestly? Best decision ever. Yeah, he works insane hours, but he’s brilliant, great with money, and their kids will never worry about college tuition. Just don’t expect him to be available for random Tuesday night dinners.

Find them at financial district happy hours and charity galas. They respond well to women who can discuss current events and appreciate good wine. Warning: they might analyze your spending habits like they’re reviewing a portfolio.

5. Import/Export Business Owners

Miami’s position as Latin America’s business gateway attracts internationally minded entrepreneurs (ages 30-50) who navigate global markets and speak multiple languages. These guys are culturally sophisticated, well-traveled, and usually financially successful.

Their lifestyle involves constant travel, multicultural business relationships, and strong connections to their home countries. They’re fascinating conversationalists who can tell you about business customs in twelve different countries, but good luck pinning them down for consistent date nights.

You’ll encounter them at international trade events and cultural celebrations. They value intelligence and cultural awareness, so brush up on your world events and maybe learn some Spanish.

The Creatives Who Keep Weird Hours

Miami’s arts and entertainment scene attracts guys who combine artistic passion with business savvy. They’re culturally interesting and usually fun, but their careers involve unpredictable income and schedules that would make a night shift nurse dizzy.

6. Music Industry Executives

These guys (ages 26-38) shape Latin music, EDM, and hip-hop trends, and they’re connected to everyone who matters in Miami’s music scene. They’re working when everyone else is partying, which creates interesting dating dynamics.

I’m not gonna lie – dating someone in music sounds glamorous until you realize your “date nights” are actually work events where you’re standing in VIP sections watching them network. But if you can handle that, you’ll have access to amazing experiences and meet fascinating people.

My roommate dated a music executive for two years. The perks were incredible – backstage passes, exclusive parties, meeting famous artists. The downside? He was literally never available during normal human hours, and she spent most weekends alone while he worked events.

Meet them at music venues and Art Basel events. They appreciate women who understand creative industries and won’t get jealous when they’re surrounded by beautiful artists all the time.

7. Fashion & Modeling Industry Leaders

Miami’s fashion world attracts visually sophisticated guys (ages 25-35) who understand aesthetics, branding, and image creation. These photographers, agency owners, and designers are image-conscious (which isn’t necessarily superficial – it’s literally their job), social media savvy, and connected to Miami’s glamorous circles.

Their lifestyle involves fashion shows, photo shoots, and events where looking good actually matters professionally. You’ll find them at Fashion Week events and Design District galleries, usually dressed better than everyone else in the room.

Just like being single at weddings requires confidence and social grace, connecting with fashion industry guys demands self-assurance and understanding that image matters in their world.

My friend Jessica found success in Miami’s fashion scene by volunteering at Art Basel and Fashion Week events. Instead of trying to compete with models for attention, she positioned herself as a creative professional who understood the industry. She met her current boyfriend, a fashion photographer, while helping coordinate a gallery opening in Wynwood. Their shared appreciation for visual aesthetics created an instant connection.

8. Film & Television Professionals

Miami’s growing film industry attracts directors, producers, and creative professionals (ages 28-40) who combine storytelling passion with business skills. They’re project-focused, creative, and usually have fascinating stories from their work.

Here’s the thing about dating someone in film: when they’re between projects, they’re completely available and attentive. During production, they disappear into their work like they’ve been abducted by aliens. The feast-or-famine nature of creative careers means their availability and income fluctuate wildly.

Meet them at film festivals and industry screenings. They value creativity and intelligence, and they need partners who understand that sometimes passion projects pay in exposure rather than actual money.

9. Art Gallery Owners & Collectors

Miami’s art scene attracts culturally sophisticated guys (ages 30-45) who combine aesthetic appreciation with business acumen. These gallery owners and collectors are intellectually curious, well-traveled, and usually financially successful.

Their lifestyle revolves around art openings, cultural events, and international art fairs. They often have extensive knowledge of art history and can give you fascinating insights into contemporary culture. You’ll encounter them at Wynwood art walks and Art Basel events, usually engaged in intense conversations about artistic movements.

They appreciate intelligence and cultural curiosity, so brush up on your art knowledge before approaching. But don’t fake it – they can spot art posers from across a gallery.

The Fitness Fanatics and Athletes

Miami’s year-round outdoor lifestyle attracts guys who are seriously into fitness, sports, and physical achievement. These men are disciplined, motivational, and usually look amazing, but their careers often involve physical demands and competitive pressures that can be intense.

10. Professional Athletes

Miami

Miami’s professional teams house some of the most disciplined, competitive guys (ages 22-35) in the city. These Heat players, Inter Miami CF soccer stars, and Dolphins create unique dating opportunities if you can handle the lifestyle.

Their world revolves around training schedules, team commitments, and performance pressure. The upside? They’re disciplined, goal-oriented, and physically impressive. The downside? They travel constantly, every woman in Miami is sliding into their DMs, and their careers can end suddenly due to injury.

I have a friend who dated a professional soccer player, and the experience was wild. Amazing perks – great seats at games, team events, meeting other athletes. But the constant travel, media attention, and female attention made the relationship exhausting. She said it was like dating someone who belonged to the entire city.

You’ll meet them at team charity events and upscale gyms. They appreciate partners who understand professional athletics’ demands and can handle public attention without getting weird about it.

11. Fitness Industry Entrepreneurs

Miami’s health-conscious culture has created successful fitness entrepreneurs (ages 25-38) who’ve built businesses around wellness and training. These gym owners and personal training studio founders combine business skills with genuine passion for helping people get healthy.

Their lifestyle centers on early mornings (like 5 AM early), physical activity, and helping others achieve fitness goals. They’re typically positive, motivational, and genuinely interested in helping people improve their lives. The challenge? Their schedules revolve around when other people want to work out, which means weird hours and weekend work.

Find them at fitness expos, health food restaurants, and beach workout groups. They value partners who share their commitment to health, but don’t expect you to become a fitness influencer overnight.

12. Sports Medicine Professionals

Miami’s athletic community relies on sports physicians, physical therapists, and sports psychologists (ages 28-42) who combine medical expertise with athletic understanding. These guys offer intellectual depth and genuinely caring personalities.

They’re science-minded, detail-oriented, and fascinated by human performance and recovery. Their lifestyle involves working with athletes, staying current with medical advances, and usually maintaining their own fitness routines. You’ll encounter them at medical conferences and athletic events where they provide professional services.

They appreciate intelligence, health consciousness, and partners who understand that medical professionals work demanding schedules. Plus, they actually know how to take care of injuries instead of just telling you to “walk it off.”

13. Marine Sports Professionals

Miami’s waterfront location attracts guys (ages 24-40) who’ve built careers around boating, diving, and fishing. These yacht captains, diving instructors, and charter operators combine outdoor expertise with business skills.

Their lifestyle revolves around water activities, weather patterns, and seasonal tourism demands. They’re typically adventurous, outdoor-focused, and incredibly knowledgeable about Miami’s marine environment. The catch? Their income and availability depend heavily on weather and tourist seasons.

Meet them at marinas, boat shows, and fishing tournaments. They value partners who enjoy water activities and can adapt to weather-dependent schedules. Just don’t expect consistent income during hurricane season.

The Suit-and-Tie Professionals

Miami’s growing business environment attracts highly educated professionals who offer intellectual stimulation and financial stability. These guys have demanding careers that require understanding partners, but they also provide security and sophisticated conversation that many women find attractive.

14. Corporate Lawyers

Miami’s major law firms house some of the city’s most intellectually accomplished guys (ages 28-45). These M&A attorneys, international law specialists, and corporate counsel are analytical, well-spoken, and usually financially successful.

Their lifestyle involves brutal hours, high-pressure situations, and social events that are basically networking disguised as fun. They’re detail-oriented, intellectually curious, and can argue about literally anything (which can be fascinating or exhausting, depending on your mood).

You’ll find them at bar association events, legal conferences, and expensive restaurants where they’re having “business dinners” at 9 PM on weeknights. They appreciate intelligence and professionalism, but don’t expect spontaneous weekend trips – they probably have briefs to review.

15. Medical Professionals

Miami’s renowned medical institutions attract accomplished physicians (ages 28-50) who combine scientific expertise with genuinely caring personalities. These plastic surgeons, cardiologists, and emergency medicine doctors offer both intellectual stimulation and serious financial security.

Here’s the reality: their schedules are insane, they’re constantly learning new medical advances, and they deal with life-and-death situations regularly. But they’re also typically caring, intelligent, and committed to making a difference. Plus, they’ll never stress about money, and they actually know how to help when you’re sick.

My friend who married a cardiologist says the hardest part was accepting that emergencies don’t respect date nights. But the stability, intelligence, and genuine caring nature made it worth adapting to medical schedules.

Meet them at medical conferences, hospital charity events, and professional association gatherings. They value intelligence, empathy, and partners who understand that saving lives sometimes means cancelled dinner plans.

16. Management Consultants

Major consulting firms place talented professionals (ages 26-38) in Miami to serve clients across Latin America and the southeastern United States. These strategy consultants and technology specialists are analytical, adaptable, and comfortable with constant change.

Their lifestyle involves frequent travel (like, a lot of travel), problem-solving challenges, and working with diverse clients across various industries. They’re typically smart, well-traveled, and great at adapting to new situations. The downside? Good luck maintaining a relationship when they’re in a different city every week.

You’ll encounter them at business conferences, airport lounges, and MBA alumni events. They appreciate intelligence, flexibility, and partners who won’t freak out about their travel schedules. Video calls become your best friend.

Their lifestyle involves project-based work, creative collaboration, and staying current with design trends and building technologies. They’re typically creative, detail-oriented, and passionate about creating functional beauty. The challenge? Their income and availability fluctuate based on project cycles.

Find them at design conferences, architecture firms, and construction industry events. They value creativity, intelligence, and partners who appreciate good design and understand that creative work doesn’t follow normal business schedules.

Miami’s position as the gateway to Latin America attracts internationally minded professionals who bring cultural sophistication and global perspectives. These guys often offer unique cultural experiences and family-oriented values, though language barriers and cultural differences may require extra understanding.

18. Latin American Business Executives

Miami houses regional headquarters for major Latin American companies, attracting accomplished executives (ages 30-48) who manage US operations. These men typically combine business success with strong family values and cultural pride.

Their lifestyle involves international travel, multicultural business relationships, and often strong connections to their home countries. They’re usually family-oriented, relationship-focused, and culturally sophisticated. The challenge? Their families might have very specific expectations about relationships and marriage timelines.

You’ll meet them at Latin American business associations, cultural events, and international trade conferences. They appreciate cultural awareness, family orientation, and partners who respect their heritage while embracing American opportunities.

Miami’s universities attract accomplished international students and visiting professors (ages 24-35) who bring intellectual curiosity and global perspectives. These MBA students, PhD candidates, and researchers offer stimulating conversation and cultural exchange.

Here’s the reality: their lifestyle revolves around academic pursuits, research projects, and often uncertain long-term location plans. They’re typically intelligent, curious, and passionate about their fields. But many are here temporarily, and their financial situations can be unpredictable.

Meet them at university events, academic conferences, and international student organizations. They value intelligence, curiosity, and partners who appreciate academic pursuits. Just ask about their post-graduation plans early on.

The Luxury Lifestyle Guys

These guys usually have sophisticated tastes and great relationship skills, though their careers often involve serving wealthy clients which creates unique lifestyle demands.

The Real Talk: What to Actually Expect

Okay, let’s break down what you’re really getting into with each type of Miami bachelor. No sugar-coating, no fantasy scenarios – just the honest truth about money, time, and relationship potential.

The Money Reality Check

The Actually Wealthy: Doctors, established lawyers, successful real estate moguls, and finance professionals usually have real money and job security. You’ll never stress about rent, but good luck getting them away from work for a spontaneous beach day.

The Probably Comfortable: Senior consultants, successful architects, luxury service managers, and established international business executives typically have steady income and can afford Miami’s lifestyle without stress.

The Wild Cards: Tech startup founders could be the next millionaire or living on ramen noodles – it’s literally impossible to tell until their funding comes through (or doesn’t). Real estate guys are either loaded or pretending to be, and it’s surprisingly hard to tell the difference at first.

The Feast or Famine Crew: Artists, musicians, actors, and entertainment professionals can have amazing months followed by broke months. If you need financial predictability, this isn’t your category.

The Probably Struggling: International students, emerging artists, and guys who describe themselves as “entrepreneurs” but can’t explain what their business actually does. Proceed with caution if financial stability matters to you.

The Time and Availability Situation

Good Luck Seeing Them: Medical residents are basically married to the hospital. Restaurant owners disappear Friday through Sunday. Entertainment professionals work when everyone else wants to have fun.

Somewhat Available: Corporate lawyers and consultants work long hours but usually have some schedule predictability. Finance guys are busy but can often plan ahead.

Travel Heavy: Management consultants, international business executives, and diplomatic professionals might be in different cities (or countries) frequently. Hope you like FaceTime dates.

Weather Dependent: Marine sports professionals, yacht brokers, and outdoor fitness entrepreneurs have schedules that depend on Miami’s weather patterns and tourist seasons.

Relationship Intention Reality

Marriage-Minded Types: Medical professionals, lawyers, Latin American business executives, and diplomatic professionals often come from cultures or careers that value stable relationships and family building.

Career-First Phase: Startup founders, young entertainment professionals, and medical residents are often so focused on building their careers that serious relationships take a backseat, even if they don’t admit it.

Exploring Options: International students, younger entertainment professionals, and some athletes may be uncertain about long-term plans or still figuring out what they want in life.

Cultural Expectations: Some international professionals have families with specific expectations about marriage timing, partner characteristics, and cultural compatibility that you should understand early on.

For those interested in multicultural connections, understanding wedding etiquette tips from different cultures can help navigate diverse dating scenarios with international professionals.

After getting ghosted by three different guys who turned out to be “temporarily” living in Miami (aka here for a good time, not a long time), I learned to ask better questions upfront. Now I always find out someone’s actual timeline and intentions before getting emotionally invested.

How to Not Lose Your Mind in Miami’s Dating Scene

Look, Miami dating can be brutal. This city attracts people who are beautiful, ambitious, and sometimes completely self-absorbed. But here’s what I’ve learned after three years of trial and error, heartbreak, and a few success stories that give me hope.

Stop trying to be the girl you think Miami guys want. I spent my first year here trying to look like an Instagram model, pretending to love bottle service, and acting interested in conversations about crypto and real estate investments. Guess what? I attracted guys who were only interested in surface-level connections. The moment I started being authentically myself – including admitting I prefer dive bars to clubs – I started meeting men who actually wanted to know me.

Develop your social intelligence strategically. Miami’s social scene rewards preparation and positioning, similar to how to find the right plus one where strategic thinking about compatibility matters more than just grabbing anyone available.

Ask the right questions early. “How long have you been in Miami?” “What brought you here?” “Where do you see yourself in five years?” These aren’t interview questions – they’re relationship-saving conversations. I learned this after falling for a gorgeous consultant who failed to mention he was moving to Chicago in six months.

Understand the social dynamics. Whether you’re meeting someone at a Miami bachelor party event or navigating the circles where successful men celebrate milestones, knowing how to handle group dynamics and social situations with grace makes a huge difference. Professional guidance can help you read rooms and position yourself strategically.

Get comfortable with Miami’s cultural complexity. This city’s international flavor means dating someone whose family expectations, communication style, and life goals might be completely different from typical American dating patterns. This isn’t necessarily challenging – some of my friends’ most successful relationships involve cultural exchange – but it requires awareness and flexibility.

Consider professional support if you keep hitting walls. I’m not talking about desperate measures – I’m talking about strategic guidance. Miami’s competitive dating environment rewards women who understand social dynamics, know how to position themselves in the right environments, and can navigate cultural differences with confidence.

This is where services like Bridesmaid for Hire become valuable. Their experience supporting over 150+ weddings has provided unique insights into what makes relationships successful and how to navigate complex social situations with grace and confidence. Their expertise in 5 tips from a professional bridesmaid emphasizes preparation, social awareness, and authentic connection – exactly what Miami dating requires.

Focus on compatibility over impressiveness. The guy who looks perfect on Instagram might be completely wrong for your actual life. Maybe your person is the doctor who texts between surgeries, the artist who makes you laugh until your stomach hurts, or the business guy who remembers your coffee order and asks about your day.

Trust your instincts about red flags. If he says he’s “between startups” and has been for two years, run. If he suggests expensive restaurants but gets weird about paying, that’s a sign. If he’s posting shirtless pics with bottle service every weekend, he’s probably not looking for something serious right now.

But here’s a green flag to watch for: the guy who’s taking care of his drunk friends at those Miami bachelor parties, making sure everyone gets home safe, and treating service staff well. That’s relationship material.

Final Thoughts

Miami’s bachelor scene is wild, diverse, and sometimes completely overwhelming. But here’s what I want you to remember: the right guy for you isn’t necessarily the one who looks perfect in photos or drives the fanciest car. He’s the one whose life actually fits with yours.

After three years of dating disasters, awkward encounters, and learning experiences, I’ve realized that success in Miami’s dating market isn’t about luck – it’s about knowing yourself, understanding what different types of guys actually offer, and being strategic about where you invest your time and energy.

Whether you’re drawn to the intellectual stimulation of finance professionals, the cultural sophistication of international executives, or the creative energy of entertainment industry leaders, success comes from aligning your approach with your authentic goals and values.

The most successful women I’ve observed in Miami’s dating scene don’t just hope to meet great guys – they strategically position themselves in the right environments, develop the social skills needed to connect authentically, and maintain realistic expectations about different bachelor categories’ unique characteristics and challenges.

Success in Miami’s dating market requires the same strategic thinking as always a bridesmaid never a bride how to respond – it’s about reframing your approach, building confidence, and positioning yourself strategically rather than leaving things to chance.

I’m not going to pretend Miami dating is easy. It’s not. This city can be superficial, expensive, and honestly kind of brutal sometimes. But here’s what I’ve learned: the right guy for you is out there, probably dealing with his own dating frustrations and hoping to meet someone genuine.

Stop trying to be the girl you think Miami guys want, and start being the girl who knows what she wants. Trust me, confidence is way more attractive than trying to fit into someone else’s idea of perfect.

Your Miami love story is waiting to unfold, but it requires more than just showing up at South Beach clubs or hoping for chance encounters. Take time to understand which bachelor category aligns with your lifestyle, values, and long-term goals, then develop a strategic approach to meeting and connecting with these men in environments where authentic relationships can flourish.

Whether you’re navigating the social scene around Miami bachelor party celebrations or learning the dynamics of where successful men network and socialize, the key is approaching this market with intention, strategy, and professional support when needed.

And hey, if all else fails, at least you’re single in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. There are worse problems to have.

P.S. – Remember, the guy posting shirtless bottle service pics every weekend probably isn’t looking for something serious right now. But the guy taking care of his friends and treating people well? That’s your green flag right there.
