Still thinking of online dating as luck
Reality: meeting reliable people online
is even less probable than offline
Write walls of text
get rejected and feel bad—why bother
Looking for trouble
A mark of maturity
is not betting on luck
Don't dodge thinking and practice
If you're lazy in mind and action
don't expect luck to deliver good results
Wanting both ways
Want to protect your idealism
then actively build that kind of circle
enter that kind of environment
Shared consensus is the baseline
not a filter
Cut the fantasy of casting a wide impractical net
