My wife was taking a shortcut through the boys' dorm (back when there were such things) and I was standing outside my door, using an extra long phone cord (bwtwst) while ordering a pizza with my shirt off (back when I regularly ran and lifted for fitness) because we didn't have air conditioning (bwtwst), and as she was wandering by she gave me a serious once over and smile in passing, getting a raised eyebrow from me. We met entirely accidentally a few days later at, well, a local pizza joint and laughed about the whole thing. That was 48 years ago and we still like pizza, though I have to spend a butt-sore load of time on the Ergatta these days to make up for it.

Advice? Think about and do more of what makes you happy and gets you out and about and go do that. Maybe you'll meet someone to share it with and maybe you won't but it will help your own perspectives.
