Some general questions:

• What is your age and sexual/romantic orientation?

• What part of the world do you live in?

• What is the size, gender balance, and relationship success rate of your friendship group?

• Are you actively attempting to find someone, or planning to in the near future?

• What dating methods do you intend to use?

• What are your political views e.g. in terms of economics, government, and progressivism (particularly gender equality)?

• What are your free-time hobbies, and what topics do you enjoy chatting about, both for small talk and deep discussions?

• Do you have any neurodivergence?

• Do you find it difficult to enjoy the company of, compassionately care about, and trust people you meet?

These questions vastly affect the odds in my opinion

Good luck :)

@TheAllMemeingEye

• 31, heterosexual

• SF

• Large I guess? It's the SF friendblob, hundreds of people interacting across a number of house parties or other events. Most date within this scene.

• Yes

• I think all? (Apps, including more obscure ones like cuties.app, continuing living life where I have a reasonable exposure to new people, I have a date me doc etc)

• I'm not very vocally political, but lean libertarian in general

• I spent most of my free time socializing, going to house parties, etc. I also go social dancing, ecstatic dancing, read books, sometimes I write, go to restaurants. I like to talk about work, both my own and the other person, as well as our life stories, recent happenings in our lives etc

• Not diagnosed. I don't have ADHD (I have high executive function without need for drugs!l But probably I'm into the 'tism to some degree

• I don't! People are nice

@JoseLuisRicon Sounds like you're in a pretty good situation for all the factors :)

Kinda surprised you haven't already found someone tbh, what do you think is the main limiting factor?

Would you care to share the date-me doc link?

Do you own chinos?

@NivlacM yes

@NivlacM ChinovlacM returns, the people rejoice

Are you using any dating apps or frequenting places with mixed groups (e.g. yoga or dancing classes)?

@Soli yes to all!

@JoseLuisRicon good luck then :)

@tftftftftftftftftftftftf I admire your optimism hah
