      So how are people getting together? Or are they just not anymore?

      And there’s element of it being s young people’s game too I suppose.

        Real life. Bars, clubs, gigs, general public. You’ve got to be self aware and perceptive.

        I don’t approach anyone who’s not already showing interest. And you have to be polite when rejected. No one wants to deal with a fuckwit.

      10 years out and I believe it! What I’ve heard of the apps now is swipe garbage. They didn’t often read profiles back then, I’m not sure you even can now

        I am so incredibly grateful that “meeting on the Internet” was still a bit weird when I met my wife. I just missed the whole Internet dating thing, and there were no smartphones/apps.

        I would be utterly lost, today.

          I had a uni lecturer who had a wife he met online in pre 96. That was genuinely weird! Meeting Boyo online was more a matter of: we’ve been at all these same gigs and know the same people, how the fuck have we not met without the net?
