An infallible dating strategy
(lemmy.world)
Introverts make friends by letting an extrovert adopt them.
Can confirm, my cousin adopted me and introduced me to their friends.
reminder to my fellow extraverts to treat their introvert extra well today, they might need it

LMAO what is this from? It looks hilarious!
It's from the movie Animal House. :) One of my favorite scenes ever (because who hasn't been that kid? lol).
Worked for me! Roommate was throwing a party and my now-wife got dragged along to it by her friend
Same, but it was my cousin doing the dragging.
Same, but it was my cousin... doing the dragging.
Y'all got set up.
It's really hard to meet people because all the people I want to know are hiding from humanity.
I don't want the type of person I'd meet at a bar and there really aren't many events for things I'm into around me. The people I'd like are more than likely like me, hoping I'd teleport into their living room just the same.
I'm also in a terrible place for my personality. It feels like I'm in materialistic asshat conservative HQ, so there's that too...

A buddy of mine got his first girlfriend in college after a family friend noticed that his single niece also liked manga and anime and introduced the two. I was very jealous of his attractive, nerdy girlfriend-turned-wife for several years until I finally got on a dating site and found love for myself.

I saw The Secret in high school and I've just been following its advice of wishing really hard. 🤷🏻♂️
I thought my problem was not going outside, but I recently saw a post about how most people meet online now.
So it turns out I just suck. That’s helpful to know
Tbf that is helpful info
I remember being surprised to realize/remember that there are (were?) totally kids that will knock on a new neighbor's door to ask their parents if they could come out to meet them and play
Imagine.. taking action to put yourself out there and meet friends. That's kinda wild

Quantum physics proves the chance of this happening isn't 0. Maybe if they wait long enough?
how else would i meet commander will riker, if not a transporter accident?
That post's gotta chill with the personal attacks, geez.
Ew, a stranger appearing uninvited in my house?
No, they can teleport to the driveway like a normal person, thankyouverymuch.
I mean, we are not 100% unfindable, we comment here on Lemmy! Normalize finding love through Lemmy (/jk).

Ive been going out more and looking at it as practice for when I meet someone I actually like. Id hate to run them off because I'm some kind of cave creature who can't interact right
Have you not considered that you might run them off because you're a socially adroit cave creature that's out of their league?
You're right, I'm defeating my own cause. Better get back to the cave and start chanting
teleports behind you Nothing personal, kid.... But would you like to be the love of my life?
teleports behind you
gives you the hug you desperately need

My SO was appointed directly into my room by a mutual friend, so it's not far fetched.
My spouse is a former roommate who more or less teleported into my living room.
...Along with 5 other people in a 2 bedeoom house.
But while it worked out for me I do not recommend it as a reliable strategy. We were lucky.
Nah. I'll just wait till I meet some other introverted, nerdy person. I already met a few.
Is there another option?
You wouldn't like the sound of it if I told you.
Sounds like it's more hassle than it's worth.
This actually works, but only if you are willing to sponsor a green card.
I'm fucking waiting!!
(Yet still need a notice, written notice, days ahead)
Ouch this one hurt, that's so fucking true 😔😔
I have seen many anime with this premise exactly
[off topic?]
Wonderfully cheesy 1970s movie "Logan's Run" had a deal like that. Instead of just swiping on an image, people teleported to your house. If you liked each other you'd step off the platform...
[The movie has a brief appearance by Farrah Fawcett, which gives it high 1970s nostalgia appeal]
