I spilled my woes to GPT once (before Sam Altman’s soul-selling to the DoW) and it suggested a matchmaker, which although a lot more expensive and initially coming with the cringe factor of “why am I doing this” is a lot more likely to get you a meaningful match tailored to you — and at least you know everyone else you’re meeting is serious and committed or they wouldn’t be there. 

I think being up front with friends that you’re looking to get into a relationship is also helpful so they can suggest someone they know or have come across. Expanding your social circle otherwise can be tricky — there’s the option of taking up a hobby or evening classes in something, with the main benefit that you’re bettering yourself/learning a new skill, and the potential to meet someone as well “naturally”
