Godspeed GNU, hope you find yourself a place that works for you

You sound very adventurous! Thanks for the perspective!

It’s more to vent than anything! Though I have read the responses so far and I do want to understand how it works for others. Realistically, my questions and uncertainties are something that would take many conversations with a therapist for me to understand how to navigate so I don’t expect to learn much aside from curiosity here. I think I would like to find a partner that I’m compatible with perhaps… but I am not ready and may never be. The dynamics TERRIFY me. Absolutely TERRIFY me.

“Is there something you don’t understand about dating and want to share your frustration?”

Literally all of it. I do not date full stop. I haven’t gone on a date in over a decade, and before that experience it had been another decade. It’s almost certainly never going to happen again. I don’t understand anything at all about dating. How do you meet people? How do you enjoy time with them? What is even going on?

Well I hope we can engineer better spines because it makes no sense for our brains to just finish developing a few years before our backs give out
