Jeff Swann on Nostr: Sometimes just examining the fact that you feel the need to ask a particular question ...
Sometimes just examining the fact that you feel the need to ask a particular question can reveal something about what you may already know on a deeper level.
As someone who has done it & was always honest with them, it can be fun, but it won't bring any sort of real satisfaction, & it won't really make you feel less lonely. And either you hook up with people who are completely broken (not smart for all sorts of reasons) or you eventually have to hurt all of them because they will all want to be the one you choose & none of them will be. You can certainly learn things in the process, but the biggest lesson or realization for me was that I actually wanted to find someone with whom I could really connect & build a future with, & that it was stupid to waste so much time not actively looking for her.
Post covid, I don't want to fuck anything that got jabbed so I think quality would be my primary focus either way.
