    Imma be real guys, it can happen. My girlfriend, whos currently sleeping next to me, finally got frustrated enough with me not making a move to knock on my door one night and tell me her feelings. Been almost a year now. So like, it’s not impossible.

    I’ve been recently suddenly smitten. Been awhiiiile. And of course she’s my coworker. On a team of three. At my new job of only three months. So yay person of interest, I guess, but of course there are now 3,000 potential new issues/stressors.

    Lmao me. Best part is even if I went out, the person I’m looking for is sitting in their room reading a book and wont be out where I am.

        I tried the library, but unfortunately my local is populated with people whom it would either be illegal and/or undesirable to date, it’s mostly kids and olds (like, grandma/grandpa old. I’m an old but not that old, I’m looking for something in a decade-size 30s), or unfortunately houseless people (and while that in and of itself isn’t necessarily a dealbreaker, it often comes with things that are in my experience, can’t be dating addicts anymore for my own health, it is what it is.)

        Bookstores maybe, and I’ve seen people in the store that I totally would love to get to know (who knows how it’d go y’know but I’m down for some coffee or something to determine compatibility beyond attraction yadda yadda), however it is my understanding that it is never appropriate to approach a woman in public and talk to her while she’s just trying to go about her business shopping, or god forbid working, anywhere.

    I occasionally do all of those things and have achieved nothing, so you’re not missing out if that helps

    Same, wanting someone to hangout but getting very anxious about just going outside.

    If only there was a way to make connections on some type of forum… Too bad that’s never gonna happen!

    The world as it sits, the right person probably doesn’t exist. They were co opted and are instead a selfish, violent, hate filled, and above all stupid, product of a wiccan system.

    Meeting humans is intolerable, but my hope is that with AI technology advancing as rapidly as it is, soon I will be able to assemble the right robot for me…
