Yael, as you know, I typically don't have comments on what you write; only praise. But, in reading this post, one sentence did jump out at me as deserving mention: "I find myself reliving a lot of the fear, isolation, and confusion I felt when the pandemic hit — a terrifying era in recent history that single women had to navigate all on their own." I think that single men had the same experience during the pandemic. Perhaps "a terrifying era in recent history that many single women (and men) had to navigate on their own."
