Dating as guy in his late 20’s

It sucks.
Have had multiple long terms relationships and am beyond the hook up era mentally. I recently went back to school and have a job waiting for me with a respectable salary and a solid career trajectory in front of me. Having that has pushed me to reevaluate my personal life.

Im well respected by my peers, a decently good looking guy, I’m nice and kind. Here’s the problem-

I’m attracted to woman that are mentally stimulating, minimally materialistic, and that have traditional values. Mind that my schedule is hectic restoring me to using dating apps.

It’s hard to get back out there. I’ve gone on dates, good dates, and it just hasn’t happened yet. I’m coming to the realization that “my personal relationship filters” have narrowed drastically—I don’t think I’m the only one.

Additionally, every other girl is “plural” just by their “profile pronouns.” …. Hard to not lose faith in the process.

I feel like I’m cornered into being attracted only to conservative woman but attract liberal woman.

I don’t know what I’m looking for. I’m just curious if anybody else out there is going through something strangely familiar. I want to get back my mojo back and enjoy this chapter of my life.

Rising 3L - Bar Prep & Timing

Going into my 3L and am planning to take the bar in Arizona in July 2027. I’m planning on filling my course load with bar tested subjects that I haven’t already taken. I’m a good (not great) student, struggled with the LSAT, but have always excelled when working as a legal assistant, paralegal, and summer clerk. That in mind, I’m looking for some advice as it comes to bar prep.

I’m curious of when I should start studying for it as well as which prep course to do. Looking for any and all advice and/or things to do/avoid ✌️ appreciate any helpful tidbits
