What's the point of meeting a random person and spending the day with only to never see them again?

You decide what the point is and if it’s worth it or not.


Not everyone needs to be a permanent cast member of your life.
Some people just guest-star.


I do agree with the sentiment that sometimes it’s a wasted day if there’s no end goal.


But sometimes the goal could be very quickly resolved: easiest example is sex.

pleasant memories and learning experience

... and if people don't perceive that as entirely understandable, that's a major difference between themselves and myself, which I've always found interesting.

[midnightmoon05]

I generally don’t.
no point. If I meet them at a party/event and chit chat and connect well… i have no prob. Seeing them again.

Sometimes living for the moment is essential.

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

It is valuable only if you value the here and now? If today is important enough then tomorrow may be interesting, but in an optional way

[jshm2]

LOL, so... you'd rather spend the day with your mother or sister instead.

But expect a spouse to magically appear?

[Abbycado]

Something to do for a day? I’ve never had this happen. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[AviatorTom]

That makes the day unique, and memorable years from now.

[WhitneySnow]

Not sure there is one. What are you thinking of?

[rgb008]

To see if you wanna spend the rest of your life with them

Maybe people think the getting to know a total stranger thing is more fun and new and exciting than people you already know

[AngryCarl3]

I suppose you get to know them well enough to know you never want to see them again.

[duntoldya]

It's a human experience.
