I’m already 35, and I don’t think I could get anything at this age, especially in an area with almost no third places, almost nonexistent mental health system, etc.
Yes I know, friends do exist, but it’s just not the same (unless you happen to regularly have sex, cuddle, etc. with your friends).
8 billion people on the planet. There is certainly a partner out there for you. Just make sure you love yourself before you ask someone to love you. Loving yourself means making the effort to search because this bothers you and you’re the only one that can fix it. It also means being honest with your expectations in terms of reciprocal value.
How many of those are within okay-ish distance, especially without me being able to own a car for health reasons?
