      Maybe they don’t attend church. Maybe they aren’t even religious. How does this help anyone?

      “Maybe they should join a crochet club and find a wholesome woman.”

      That’s how ridiculous you sound.

      The issue with Anon is not where he decided to pick the woman up, but how. What he said is basically “hey, I’m creepy enough to eavesdrop your conversation for three whole hours. Since you’re desperate you might as well lower your standards and date someone random, like me.” Of course she’d reject him.

      Maybe religion doesn’t make you a good person and churches attract power hungry egomaniacal criminals

      One might need to “underpin” their backstory a bit before wandering into a church and spitting game. Sounds like a lot of effort…almost like you should go to church for your whole life, first. Of course, Anon would be the same person - the church girls would also be rejecting him and he’d be crying about it - then people would tell him to just go to a bar.

      The moral of the story, of course, being don’t go to bars by yourself, eavesdrop, then cry when somebody you don’t know doesn’t want to spend time alone with some creep who doesn’t even know how to make small talk. Buddy would have proposed on the date.
