    This was my logic. The type of girl I’m into, I’ll not meet because of this logical fallacy. I was beyond lucky, the probability were so low, yet I found her.

      Being single and horny tends to get people off the couch from time to time. Then you meet people you vibe with and you get to sit on the couch together because you’re no longer lonely or climbing the walls with hormones.

        Don’t worry the hormones die off around 35 so plenty of uninterrupted couch time

          You’d like to think so, but I’ve heard some stories about what folks at the senior living center get up to. It’s only “uninterrupted couch time” in the JD Vance sense.

            I think that might also be because of boredom. When there is nothing else to do people tend to do that.

            For example, in a place I know they were struggling with not having enough electricity for the population. So each day there’d be no electricity for hours and hours. That resulted in a clear population boom after a few years. And went away after the power problem was solved.

    Or! The person you fall in love with wont be “just like you” and you’ll meet them if you get off your ass and look.

    When I was a young boy
    My mother said to me:
    "There’s only one girl in the world for you,
    and she’s probably watching TV."

    I met my wife as she swore off dating apps. So did I.

    You know those parades during holidays and people of a specific organization walk through with costumes? Well, one for my hobby had a call for parade participants. After 3 months of practice, I finally had the nerve to ask her out.

    Now we’re married. Going on 12 years.

    I agree with the image. There are good ones who aren’t on the app.

    Just look for a Gilmore Girls Repeat-Binge Watching Support Group and go from there.
