One of the most important things for people of any age is to feel successful career-wise. Most people sacrifice things like relationships or friendships in favor of financial stability and prosperous working life. But there are situations when, even within work life, a partner is needed. Parties or social gatherings often require a plus one to be brought, and not bringing a date is usually frowned upon. Of course, you might not bring a date just because you do not have time for it; between spending most of your day working a nine-to-five and then spending just a few relaxing hours at home all on your lonesome, you might find dating an impossibility. So, what you need to do is to find a short-term alternative.
