I am now on Day #21 after reading this story when it appeared in my feed the day before Valentine's Day.

My own experience has not gone the way that you described. I will likely write about it someday, but I am at the opposite point of what you wrote.

I have been sizing up every woman I see for the past week: old, young, middle-aged, black, white, LatinX, Asian, chubby, skinny, and even finally made (verbal) contact with someone who I've been admiring for years.

I am working on a story about that although, Yes, I am a long-time married man so probably shouldn't.
