I get that too. It does seem like an odd thing to happen. I wonder if most people get that or just some subset.
I was under the impression most people got that, but I'm realizing now that was more due to famous quotes to that effect rather than any more direct or reliable evidence.
Open to anyone, single or otherwise. What do you look for in a relationship?
A few questions to narrow down the responses:
1: What traits are most important to you in a prospective partner?
2: What kind of role would you want your partner(s) to play in your life?
3: How much time would you spend together, ideally?
4: How important is it to you that you share similar tastes?
5: How important is it that you be ideologically similar?
6: What, if anything, are your dealbreakers?
