    This but unironically, I would meet the wrong kind of people through those old-school approaches anyways.

      This is exactly my issue. I don’t drink anymore and I don’t party so anyone I met at a bar would be totally different than me and we’d more that likely not even be into each other at all, all my friends moved away anyway so there’s no party to go to annnnnd I’m already 40 now lol. While I’m not the ugliest person on earth, in photos I turn into Smeagol so online dating is completely out of the question. I wasted 10 years destroying my self worth using those sites. In 10 years I had 5 dates…

      Yearn it is! Lol

        Same advice, but in a place that does share your interests. A library, or a board game store.

        I would be at least equally as interested in a woman I met in a bar as someone who I met trying to borrow a copy of The Lesser Key of Solomon, or someone who absolutely destroyed me in a Warhammer match with her army of candy-pink Tyranids.
