Here we go . D <| sep |> Thank you for this . I think you give sound advice . Online dating is definitely hard because I need good face to face conversation in order to have that chemistry . I realize that some people may be good at texting and others aren ' t . It ' s definitely hard to assess ones personality just only a few profile pictures . <| sep |> Or they could have just . ya know . said no . <| sep |> back to python 2 ? <| sep |> You ' re not depressed . your life just sucks . If left untreated , your life sucking could turn into real depression . There are lots of people who are legitimately and medically depressed , and require guidance and help to get past it .
