When I was in dating apps, my opening line to men on bumble was “hey, I’m looking for a good book to read, what’s your favorite?” because my ex hated reading and I wanted to date someone who wasn’t like him.

I’m not kidding, in Los Angeles, 99% of men I matched with said The Alchemist.

I finally read it a few years ago and was blown away by how mediocre it was. So now if I ever find myself single and wanting to date men again, I’m screwed lol
