So I've been thinking, Alot, about game theory as it applies to (potential) relationships. Mostly I rant about how ill-suited the social necessity of the conflation of coupling and sex applies to my existence, but today I'm going to do something a little different and consider things scientifically. What are the possibility vectors for a relationship for me?

A typical possibility vector would go like this:

  1. I have a pool of friends
  2. From said pool, I have a perceived compatability with each female
  3. I estimate each person's compatability to me
  4. Given some metric of my expectations versus estimated possibilities, I end up hooking up with one or more people from said group
  5. Life happens, making vector members 1-4 irrelavent

However, the given, 1., does not apply: I don't have a pool of friends nor do I particularly have intentions of acquiring one. So given this baseline case, let's see what life holds for me. Shall we?

[...]

  1. Lack of necessity of "doing" anything.

The cross product of all possibility vectors is the very large Hilbert space that describes the mutual affection of humanity for itself.
