Multi-Dimensional Dating App

A dating app.

It’s a common service that allows you to find a partner online.

The main users range from early 20s college students to young adults and middle-aged people….

Oh, so the most important thing is the matching probability, right?

For me, it’s currently 0%.

“Come on.”

But I’m only 22 years old.

I was once again locked in a staring contest with my phone screen, still waiting for a match that never came.

But would anything change if I actually got a match?

After hearing a simple internet story about someone finding a partner through a dating app, I became interested in the idea.

Who would be interested in someone like me, who couldn’t even escape from being a pitiful F-grade hunter at this age?

People using this app don’t know me, so it’s no wonder that no one is interested in a few short sentences on the screen.

“Sigh. Forget it. This app is just a waste of time.”

The occasional messages that come through are so obviously from bots or part-time workers, and the conversations never go beyond ten exchanges.

If I want to meet a girl, maybe I should gather the courage to say just one word to them in real life, where there might be a slightly higher chance.

As I was about to close the dating app, an ad popped up.

=========

[Are you worried because you can’t find the right partner for yourself? Could it be that it’s not because there are only 7 billion people on Earth?

If you’re open to women from beyond Earth, try using this app. With this interdimensional dating app, the matching probability is a whopping 99.99%! Surely there’s someone out there in this vast universe who likes you, right?]

=========

…It’s truly a crazy world where even apps made by competitors advertise each other for money.

“Interdimensional dating app…?”

In that moment of trying to close the app, I suddenly found myself intrigued by it.

No, even if I wanted to ignore it, the name is just too comical.

The app’s recommendation seemed like a direct hit to the users who were already using the app, to the point where I started to doubt if it was a joke, but regardless, it was something I couldn’t ignore.

*Sigh.*

“…..”

And just like that, on a whim, I ended up downloading the app.

…And little did I know.

That there would come a day when I would have to seriously consider the silly joke I sometimes made about my other half not being on Earth yet.
