You actually need to go out and do stuff. Yuck! I get it to be fair, I'm pretty glad I'm in a long term relationship. I'm far too old to be out doing stuff
. Although, she keeps telling me that I should go out and do stuff and have hobbies but it sounds pretty exhausting...

I do also agree with that, it's a major problem with the dating site mechanic even if you are going purely by the physical. People have more to them than a static image; a lot of attraction is in the way people hold themselves, mannerisms, microexpressions, etc.
Basically... You can see a picture of someone and think they're "ok" but be HUGELY attracted to them in person when you actually see them move, speak, make eye contact etc... And likewise, you can think someone looks stunning in a picture and be left totally "meh" as soon as you see them in person. Even if they look exactly like their picture. Body language is much more important.
This is why people have "weird celebrity crushes". They look at a picture of them and wonder why on earth they'd find that person attractive... But then when they actually see them "live action" on screen they are for some reason attracted to how they "are".
