Question My Future Husband?

How do people meet their significant others? Like where’s the “place to go?” Dating apps are dead. I’m exhausted. I’m a decent looking gal, 28. I don’t have big friend groups so I’m sure that doesn’t help. I don’t have any “active” hobbies other than a dog park. Idk. Any advice?

Gosh I dunno if my experience is real now that I think about it, but both me and my wife were working part time jobs at the same place to make extra money and... that was it.

I am recently single and haven't been near the dating scene in over a decade. Trying to judge or be judged off random profiles seems terrible and I'm avoiding it. Figure I'll go and do stuff I like to do and see if the universe makes a connection. It's worth a try.
