“Self-domestication” for wolves is no different than the incentivized lab rat riddle of “push button, get treat/don’t push button, stay hungry”.
“Self-domestication” in humans is far different.

Side note: I once asked a local in a certain small, tourist-favorite island community what the “dating scene” is like (mainland only via ~2hr ferry or private air/water craft), and they replied: “Well, some ‘ship it in’ with visitors ferried over now & then, but mostly? We just wait our turn.”
I’d lived on the island for several months by then, and I noped the fuggout mere weeks later. Ain’t nobody gonna find Love fishing in that mud puddle — especially if it’s still warm from the last go. 😶

Honestly? It sounds like you’ve cultivated genuine caring for (and in turn, care from) those you hold a deep love for: your chosen family, “ohana”. The whole “next stage of life” thing is a packaged product that was sold to you (and all of us) from birth and I, for one, feel that your earnest, meaningful efforts to not only establish but personally tend to those close relationships deserves a kinder critique than always comparing it to the Happy Meal that never turns out like “as seen on TV!” — sorry, spoilers! 🤪
No, but seriously. Fuck that dream-sapping bullshit. You are the universe experiencing itself. Breathe that in. ✊🏼

NGL, at first glance, I read that as “Byzantine” and didn’t see much difference in the end result - other than it feeling a mite obtuse? 🤣🤦🏼♂️

Keep putting in the work. You’ll get there, and we all will too. Or, we won’t, and everything’s fucked, but either way: you’re doing great. Just keep swimmin’!💙

Are you assuming microtransactions? If you’re right, I’m with ya, but what’s the over/under there? Sans such bullshit tactics, I’m tentatively optimistic, NGL.
