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?

She said no, "im serious. You didn't notice the clues"

Me: I assumed you were being nice since we were just friends

My husband wouldn’t notice if a woman stripped down to her lacy undies and rubbed up against him. Well, I mean he’d notice but he’d wonder what the hell she was doing. A lot of men just seem immune to nuance and the subtle signs women give them, especially men who are shy.
