One more point that I haven't seen brought up -- listen to Queen:

Can anybody find me somebody to love?
Each morning I get up I die a little
Can barely stand on my feet
Take a look in the mirror and cry
Lord what you're doing to me
I have spent all my years in believing you
But I just can't get no relief,
Lord!
Somebody, somebody
Can anybody find me somebody to love?

Personally, I'd recommend a dog or cat to this person.

Children as match makers when you're too old to stand on your feet? ;)

That's an interesting interpretation :-) it was also fun to watch it evolve :-D

I was calibrating political correctness.

Entirely within your own mind? I don't think you got any external feedback to base calibration on :-)

I got plenty of feedback from the intensive simulations I ran.
