    When I was looking for a partner just someone that would listen to my crazy ramblings about things I enjoy and constant changing of topics (ADHD or whatever). Basically just show an interest in things I find interesting.

    I’ve completely stopping looking for a partner in the last few years, fell into a depression hole and don’t see any light at the moment. Just keeping my head above water mostly these days.

      That’s one of my favorite traits in my partner. She’s great at keeping the conversation going, which is important, because I’m terrible at it lol

      When we get high together, there’s usually about an hour period, that I call her Wikipedia time, where she finds a random topic, and has to talk about it at length

      You have to get out of your daily cycle to find someone. Dating apps suck. Meetups are fantastic to meet new people and develop new friend circles. It’s how I met my best friend, and my life evolved from there. Don’t give up. You’ll find someone eventually.

          Well, for starters, there are hobby related meetups. I did boardgames and made several friends through that. There are also Singles meetups for certain age ranges. Where they go to go to bars, breweries, or other activities - essentially somewhere where they can meet and talk. My best friend met his current wife at one. Check them out. You’d be surprised what’s available. There are book clubs, sports leagues, etc.

          Find something that interests you, and maybe you’ll make a connection with someone.
