Regardless of the marketing term "anti-bacterial" on the label, there are quite a few specific ingredients in this area that are banned in the EU but in wide use in the US.

Ok, 0 matches or striking out early

For real. Matches have much less to do with appearance or age than they do with bad profiles, poor chatting skills, or unpleasant personality traits

You want a GF to lock her emotionally away from the rest of your life?

Wow, that was a huge leap there. There's absolutely nothing wrong with not wanting to seek an intimate relationship with someone in your established circles. Like dating someone at work, this can come with significant social risk.

Nearly half the investors who have applied hail from the US, representing 85 applications, followed by China, 26, and Hong Kong, 24. Residents from countries across Asia and Europe make up the rest of the applicants.

"Flock" lmao

They're not the best, but there isn't a reason not to try if it interests you. A good friend of mine in his mid-40s was divorced from his wife and went on Bumble about a year and a half ago. He went on a handful of dates and only a couple months in met his new girlfriend. They've been together a year now, they're doing well and she's great. Point is there are lots of success stories.

We do live in a decent sized city, where there are a lot of fish in the sea.

Was Desert Storm World War 3? Or the Vietnam War? Or the Korean War? Or Russia's invasion of Ukraine? Or the US's invasion of Afghanistan? Or the US's second invasion of Iraq? People constantly claiming "here comes World War 3!" makes it sound like you're excited for that, which is depressing. The reality is it's not World War 3, and world geopolitics do not portend another war on the horizon of the same magnitude as World War 2.

The US Navy can try their very best to keep that strait open, but they simply cannot stop 100% of commercial vessels from being attacked when there are hostile groups on both sides of the strait with significant missile capabilities. US naval vessels themselves will become targets, and there would likely be some costly US losses. Regardless, the increased risk of traversing the strait will have an immediate impact on oil prices, even if no ships are actually blocked
