I'm not the one meeting people on a superficial level. I'm the one with the open mind getting burned at every step of the corner. Just when I meet someone and I think "hey, this person could be an 'amazing multi-dimentional person'" red flags get thrown in my face. This post of mine was more of a rant against society than a cry for help. So take it as such, regardless of how surprising it may be to you that I have a girlfriend.
If you took offense to what I said then you should remind yourself that all I had to go on was your original post. Although my post wasn't intended to hurt anyone's feelings, I can only call it as I see it.

But now that you've clarified the situation, I've run into the same problem quite a few times. I find that it's best to remind myself that although there might be red flags a person can still surprise you.

Keep an open mind, let a few things slide and do whatever it is you do. The situation will sort itself out but if all else fails there's always this.
