My conclusion from the conversation is that dating / partners is just so fundamentally different. Emotions, needs changing over time, etc.

Good point, it's certainly not a static set of considerations. It's annoyingly hard / impossible to find good advice on how to find & keep a great partner. Most people say "I just knew" or "I couldn't live w/o this person." Not helpful. CC

@rivatez claims she has a way of deducing people's telos and hooking them up. (I can do it professionally btw but not friends/romance.)2 replies 0 retweets 1 like -
