Is that what you are doing, looking for "believable" ideas for a novel or screen play?

Technically hiking with a group of friends but the mutual friends were from our college church group. We both had just walked away from crazy party days and ended up finding each other at just the right time.

She would come visit her Dad and I was friends with him. We were LDR and phone pals for awhile then she started flying to FL to visit me. The last time she flew to FL she said she wished she could take me home with her. I said I wish I could go. So I did.

Personally I have never been married, but this post reminded me of a former co worker about 15 years ago (who I found very attractive but she was married). Once in a moment of light conversation non work related with a small group of co workers she related how she met her husband. They were both at gas station and met while filling their respective autos! He approached her.

So now I not only keep my eyes peeled for security reasons but I always check for any attractive women who may be single. haha no luck - yet!

So if you're supposed to meet your soul mate by NOT LOOKING and just living life, why are there 30 and 40 and older year older people on the Internet saying they've never been in a relationship, even if they don't try? Is there an actual reason? Or they just SOL?

You're in training for it.

They are atypical. Interpersonal issues prevent them from being in relationships and they have neglected to seek intervention for them. A lot of them don't care.

It's more like you are just supposed to live your live to the fullest and BE OPEN to all it presents to you - that's when you'll be most likely to meet "the one".
