    just spitballing here, but we gotta bring back the custom of setting acquaintances up with each other. if you got single friends out there, play a bit of matchmaker.

          It has very low odds of working out and high odds of making things super awkward for the matchmaker friend.

          Dating apps are awful and mostly ruined by thirsty, pervy dudes, but at least you stand a good chance of having something in common with the person when you finally get a date.

      I feel like there were a lot of aspects of dating that needed an overhaul, mostly because most of them were based on long gone social structures and just straight up patriarchy. Dating apps seem to be the new thing that's replacing everything else and sadly good things like setting up acquaintances seem to be going away. I don't know anyone who does that anymore....

      This seems like it could be woven into some kind of app somehow. Like instead of the app playing matchmaker, your friends can anonymously feed you profiles for people they know who they think you might like or something
