“Put yourself out there! You'll find your match - you're soulmate is waiting right around the corner! Where do I find her? You just have to look around, keep meeting new people! I've tried that, I've got out for days on end going to countless bars and clubs - I've gone all the way to the other side of the earth and still nothing. Well it'll fall into your lap when you least expect it. Really? Yeah you can't be looking for it - well I'm NOT looking for it. Adn where on earth am I supposed to find her? In the bushes? On the street corner? In the cafe where everyone is looking at their phone and has airpods shoved into their ears? In the library where there are empty tables? In the bar were everyone is drunk and foolishly polluting their own bodies? In the churches that young people have abandoned? On the dating apps that are shown to be ineffective for men? Wil she fall out of the sky onto my lap? It got to a point where I was happy to be alone. It was to much vain effort trying to find the right person. Anyways who brought the wine? And it better be pino grigio!”
