You give me hope bro.

The clicking and always being able to find a new profile creates a brain chemistry reaction. It's constantly reaching for something unfamiliar.

I would agree with this!

PP here: clinical depression and anxiety, general misery, and a bad attitude towards people and life. I'm sorry, but I've seen these people online, and I always think, "Well, THAT profile will make mine look pretty good!"

I wasn't looking for someone from a particular nationality or religion, but I am pretty discriminating, and I was looking for someone who would fit into my world. And I was surprised to find people who did - people who had mutual friends with me, or other mutual social connections.
Anyhow, no, I never felt like I needed to take a break. It was kind of fun!
