Hey, late 40s woman here. Used them all - honestly they’re all pretty much the same as in the same people are on them. The League makes you feel like it’s a bit more exclusive and seems like you get slightly better picks, but again those same folks were also on Bumble which was quite a bit cheaper. I would try one of those first and see how it goes before you commit a lot more money on it.

Honestly my experience wasn’t terrible except for some awkward moments when one of senior directors in the office tried to match with me.

The dates themselves were fine - for me I mostly just didn’t click with most romantically; didn’t have any nightmare stories. Some folks look a little different in the pictures, some were just flat out boring, but nothing too crazy. Ended up dating a couple for a while.

I would suggest going into it without expecting much and to have fun. Know quite a few people our age who ended up finding their person on line, so stay positive.

Good luck!

So last time I tried this was maybe 1.5 years ago and I was amazed how few professional type men I found. Most were more along lines of high school educated blue collar. I’m not tied to any one profile and there are things about blue collar life that are very attractive (and complementary to partner life) but the balance was wayyy off.

Anyone else find this?

Referrals are a great idea but haven’t had luck over the years. I’d assume at my age the pond is starting to get restocked :). My child is elementary school so most peers from there are about ten years younger/ very few split up yet

Me. Female, city dweller, ski, travel, cape, family time. The usual :).

I’ll have to check for a singles bowl :)

Tell me more…. Did you make partner and walk away?

Tell us about yourself & what you are looking for etc. what’s the X factor? What’s your personality type 😃😃
