The people who always said "You only find love when you stop looking for it" or "Just do your own thing and the right person will come to you" or similar advice; what do they say in covid times?

I guess I get so flustered over it because I view dating as something so laid-back like it doesn’t need to be all serious I’m OK with an extremely laid-back relationship where we only text each other every three or four days I’m not into this or we talk to each other every single day and we see each other every single week and we’re all up in each other‘s lives and such and it’s like no dating doesn’t need to be that way like dating doesn’t have to be put onto a higher pedestal than friendship and I don’t understand why others see it that way. It’s like universally seen as something more than friends.

I may or may not be drunk when typing this
