    Uneventful. I dont pursue it tho. I really dont see a need for a relationship. Like ive never met anyone who i thought a relationship with them would make my life better than being single. If i ever did meet someone who i thought that about id go for it, but idk if they exist. I find other people are best in small doses.

    Nonexistent! Here’s to hoping that there’ll be more approachable queer people in university!

    Twice married Gen X here. I feel for you all. Genuinely. Had to pop-in and leave a virtual hug for you all.

    None of you are commenting on the whys, which tells its own story (and I’m not asking, just noticing).

    Met my current partner at work. The funny part is I had given up completely, after going on dates with enough people, but just not really connecting with any. My previous relationship was haunting me, and I carried a lot of damage from it. I just couldn’t overcome it, so, I gave up. Then, out of nowhere, this gorgeous, kind, bubbly, and incredibly intelligent girl just showed up in an IT orientation I was leading. We started talking eventually, and we’ve been together for 2 amazing years. I know it’s cliché, but sometimes you find what you’re looking for precisely when you’re not looking.

    Before that I dated on apps, and I can confirm it was hell. It’s probably changed in the 3 odd years I was using them, but Bumble was by far the best app, at least in my area. On that app, it felt a lot more meaningful than Tinder or Hinge.

    How has your dating life been, OP?

    Found someone nice. It was sheer chance, really. Met with a new neighbor and she had a crush on me. Was friends for a while. Years later decided to get into a relationship with her.
