thanks to the modern economics, it's not like there's many parties anyway and a drink in a bar costs more than my food for the whole day. plus we let big tech psychos convince us that the paid online dating trap is the way to go. the only people that cold approach me are street shysters and crackheads in the train station, and i like to be left alone in public, so i assume everyone else does too. you're probably out because you have stuff to do and not just walking around aimlessly, right?
then everyone in college already has their friend group, barging in feels like intruding. if you find someone you have stuff in common with and you don't have mainstream social media, you're likely dead to them. then you start a job and get locked in an office cubicle forever.
if you choose to play anyway, make sure you're not homosexual, or heavens forbid, trans or asexual. you'd be playing the game on hardmode!
