Plot twist of the century: your dream programmer girlfriend ALSO never leaves the house because she's busy refactoring her codebase at 3 AM in a hoodie. She's not at the bar, she's not at the gym—she's in her cave with three monitors, debugging her life choices just like you!

The dating pool for programmers is basically two hermit crabs trying to find each other while both are hiding under rocks. You're both optimizing algorithms instead of optimizing your chances of human interaction. The irony is CHEF'S KISS—you can't meet because you're doing the exact same thing that makes you compatible in the first place.

It's the ultimate catch-22: the person who would understand your lifestyle is living the same isolated, screen-lit existence. Maybe the real solution is a dating app that only works between 2-4 AM and matches based on commit history? 💀
