    …those younger are TikTok addicted, those older are Facebook-relicts.

    You’re being very assuming with people and that’s why the downvotes.

    Not every person will be “TikTok addicted” or “Facebook-relicts”, you’re just assuming they are which is only affecting your own chances finding someone.

    Try just getting to know someone first before you start assuming about their interests or what they do.

    … and they must be an only child or have siblings within that age as well, otherwise the interests are not overlapping enough to spend time together…

    Who says you have to spend time with your SO’s siblings for any great length of time? Parties and holidays you can get through, but it’s not like you’re going to go live with the family.

    You and your SO should both have your own friends and hobbies (in addition to joint friends/hobbies). I’m not trying to crap on having a relationship with your SO’s family, just that it’s not mandatory.

    I feel like removing these two arbitrary requirements would vastly increase your dating pool. I get that people are looking for traits in a potential partner (doesn’t smoke / drinks / poly / not-poly / uses Arch) but the ones you’ve picked are just self limiting
