People keep telling me that dating today is a war zone, facing all kinds of challenges.
Dating apps don’t seem to be directly trying to help solve the problem as much as generate revenue. In fact, they are very directly motivated to not make great long term matches.
Some people seem think that just getting out there and hoping for the best is the answer. Maybe that’s true, but it’s still very random. I was wondering about a hypothetical alternative:
What if you could go to an agency of some kind get rated through a thorough evaluation process? Would that be helpful ? It’s not perfect, and many things are hard to measure. But maybe it’s a less random starting point and can escape the exclusively money driven approach of dating apps.
Hobbies? In this economy?
Sure. You just need to find cheap hobbies, like hiking (depending on where you live).
So I can get murdered and have my body dumped in the woods?
Yeah, that would really ruin the dating outcome we’re kinda shooting for I feel.
If that’s your dream, I won’t stop you.
But there are groups that do hikes together. And typically murderers aren’t interested in audience participation.
When I was thinking through the challenge of entering dating, little did I realize that we’d soon be exchanging murderer dodging tips.
Valuable knowledge no doubt but damn 😂
