    I’m not saying this doesn’t suck, but

    “commute”, if public transport, is 2 hours to be on dating apps (or to say hi to people if you’re so bold), “bathe” is 1 hour, “get in bed” is probably 30 mins. So 3:30h daily in your specific example to possibly be on dating apps.

    But apart from that… I live alone, and daily chores are 0-5min. Making and eating food is 20min. 1h Bathing you don’t need every day, 10min shower is fine. How can you take 1h to go to bed, takes 5 mins for me. That would theoretically free 3:20h for relationships, which is fine each day.

        I mean that’s what this post is about right? There are ways to connect with people, however it’s “euagh” to do them. Completely understandable.

      I can only speak for the bedtime, but for some of us, it sucks. My partner can fall alseep within a few minutes. For me it can take anywhere from 10 minutes to a couple of hours, even if I’m absolutely exhausted. So one hour doesn’t sound wild.

        I’m not disagreeing there. I would have ranked that under the “sleeping” point, I thought “going to bed” was other rituals people do, undressing, removing makeup, brushing teeth, reading part of a good book, etc.
