A male friend of mine is 5'3" tall, no college education, and sells pottery for a living - and didn't make much money doing it, based on his apartment. He's also hilarious and kind. Anyway, he met and married a 5'10", attractive woman who is a principal at a PE firm and semi-professionally competes in salsa dancing competitions.

Happy for them, this should happen more. But an exception does not negate the broad pattern.

Sense of humor cuts right through a lot of obstacles. Plenty of women will feel attracted to you if you can make them laugh often.

But, of course, you have to meet up first, and the Tinder generation may not pass this first obstacle.

Wise words. When seeing a person in public they are so infinitely more rich compared to 3 filters in an app. But there doesn't seem to be any sign of this returning in big ways.
