Too annoyed with people to even care about dating. Some advice?

Quite honestly, you have to recognize that you're not as well-adjusted as you imagine.

It's one thing to claim that you're happy and confident, but that isn't the same as saying that you're in the right headspace to be dating (or be in the social sphere).

I think cultivation of compassion and genuine interest in the subjectivities of others is ideal for you. Cultivation of actual care for those you're interacting with is integral for dating and making new connections.

Branch out your interests. I used to be quite similar to you, and have since realized just how myopic my own view of myself was. I didn't know what I didn't know with regards to my social limitations and how that was hindering me.

If you want something actionable, maybe you could start listening to podcasts (the Tim Ferriss podcast helped me to cultivate more diverse interests) and perhaps begin with a meditation practice. Loving kindness meditation may be a useful thing to learn specifically for your own ends.

Both are tools.
