What foods are OK/NOT OK to eat on New Year's day?

I felt bad about waking her up so I made her a pillow fort. I think she likes it.

It’s different than I expected.

Some of the sounds that Pica makes, I like to imagine what I would think were I in the woods alone and heard such a sound.

I would think "this is a very silly forest, you have go to be kidding me"

What would you think if you heard the sound of your pet out in the wild?

I agree up to a point. This can be a trap: people will think that just by doing things they care about with other people they will eventually "naturally" just meet someone. It was only when I leveled with myself about what I wanted "I want to get married, a life long relationship" that I started making any real progress.

I knew many nice people but not enough to meet someone like my husband.

Started to think there was something wrong with me since it didn't just magically "happen"

I literally ran the numbers and realized I only met about 3 new people in my age range as friends every 5 years or so.

My husband and I had zero friends in common, did none of the same clubs or activities. We would have never met in NYC if not for the dating app.

#fedihired ?

What if we started #fediMarried? Bad idea? probably.

I still think there ought to be some kind of introverts matchmaking service. And obviously it couldn't be a paid service as that gets the incentive structure wrong.

I found my husband of 18 years online before "match.com" was totally broken. IDK what I'd do today.

I know 6 people who kind of want to get married but none of them match. Gotta cast a wider net. They are introverts so this will not happen. How many have you got?

Lots of people don't want to get married and that's fine. I just think if people want to find someone they should be able to. Being married can be awesome.
