#2  Not going to happen. Major spontaneous separations occurring at this time. Women will have no part of that. They want their freedom and independence. They might date but the guy has to have money. Child, then major child support for years. So men know this and they are not dating. Even at work they avoid being alone with women coworkers. Con virus has made things so much worse for any interaction.
