    Be interesting, do cool things and invite someone in to join you. Thats damn solid advice.

    People often think their hobbies are boring or to niche and think that no one will care about them. But passion is infectious and by sharing things you think are interesting you will eventually find someone who wants to share it with you.

        You will enjoy fishing a lot more if the company is good, and the beer is cold.

          I like fishing, I just think it’s quite unpopular with women.

              What’s the implication? Am I naïve? I just thought it was traditionally a man’s hobby with little interest from women, just as most men mostly aren’t very interested in crochet.

            I see a surprising number of women standing on a boat holding a fish in their Tinder profiles.

              Maybe it’s different in your area. Where I live the local fishing spot is nearly all men.

        Cold weather fishing alone with an audio book is the best experience. Now how do I invite someone to that…

    Taking dating advice from a divorce attorney seems like taking swimming lessons from a shark. Maybe he has good points but I can’t help but wonder about his intentions…

      At the same time though, he sees where people have routinely fucked up. He sees exactly what critical incompatibilities get missed until it leads to a divorce.

      I’d say it’s more like an ER doctor teaching people how to use a chainsaw. They may not necissarily know what to do, but the sure as hell know what not to do.
