I guess it gets down to whatever whoever is ready to do to reach their Goal X.
Of course - in this case - it could require much less work to find a one-night stand partner than a serious relationship partner.
.
And - Online dating isn't the only option!
If you get tired of the digital files and the algorithms and the profiles, go outside and meet new folks!
I like lists and spreadsheets.
I made one spreadsheet for going through dating profiles in OKCupid.
I don't remember many details from it anymore - maybe my current girlfriend I've been with for more than a year now was the about 200-300th profile I crashed upon. And maybe there was a 15% chance that a profile I liked answered my message once and never again.
.
Finding a partner may also need persistence.
I was determined enough to find someone beside me. I worked with my goal and with that spreadsheet for months, having pauses here and there.
Why the spreadsheet? Cos (I like 'em plus) I wanted to know and MEASURE, how much work my goal needed to for it to be accomplished (in my case, under these stars and circumstances).
(I didn't pay for the service.)
.
How determined are you?
I dig how we nowadays can (start) come (coming) up with solutions that can aid even people with worse diseases and symptoms!
Cool!
I have a Fitbit smartwatch. It has a stopwatch too but it's not as convenient for me than the stand-alone stopwatch.
Beware...
A stopwatch!
I can measure time used in exercising and in my challenges-considering-time-spent!
I remember seeing those books in the library when I was a kid!
The fly change was the most fearful of them all! 😬
Would dating be easier outside the Internet?
