That is one of my favorite angles when trying to lift up someone who is discouraged about dating or friendship. Our minds are not equipped to really understand just how big the world is. There are a functionally infinite amount of people to meet. Even if you filtered humanity down to fluent speakers of your language, your preferred gender, close in age, you’re probably looking at more introductions / blind dates than you could ever possibly accommodate in your lifetime. It sounds trite to say “there are always more fish in the sea” but you can always keep trying.
