I’d agree with this but it’s hard to explain to a potential romantic partner why you seemingly have no friends of the same gender.

why are people so judgemental about this? especially at this age and in these times. like oh no, a 30-something who doesn't have a bustling social life, how unusual and certainly worthy of scorn and not compassion or understanding. do people actually view their potential partners like this?

and here I am wishing I could even find someone who wants me at all, even if it was only for my body

Welfare/Disability has to go up as well accordingly.

yeah we pretty much need to double welfare/disability rates
