Met my husband at 35, married at 36, popped out two babies, and my life is more blessed than I could have ever imagined. Best wishes!
King! An affair during your 60s is so messed up!
Met on Bumble at 36 and 38!
My tip: I stopped looking for high attractiveness and started looking for people who were at least a 5, who I thought I would enjoy talking to you for an hour. It made dating more fun and significantly increased my hit rate.

This! Attraction comes from love and love starts with chemistry. You don't see chemistry from a photo!! Give those people who aren't 100% your visual type a chance because people get way hotter when their personality is amazing and you share memories and history together. Why do you think people (like me) who have been married for 20 years and kids, life, etc have dragged our bodies through hell still find each other as hot as day 1? Chemistry, history, and love increase attraction!
Met my husband at 40, he was 38. Married a couple years later, during the pandemic. It’s a first marriage for both. Currently pregnant with our first (a boy!) at 46?! I loved my life leading up to when I started this next chapter and even though it’s “not what I wanted”, I wouldn’t change those years! Having a (first) baby at 46 seems ridiculous but it is what it is and we are so excited!!
My personal advice is love life where ever you are and whatever it is you are doing. Be your best self. Do the things you may not get to do later (for me, that was traveling- been to 65+ countries, biked across Europe, hiked across Bhutan, lived in South America, etc).
For me, the key to the next chapter was not dating people that didn’t want the same things I did. I loved some of the guys I dated but the timing was wrong and, at the end of the day, I wasted time on people that just weren’t right. I regret that maybe but then it all worked out and I loved every minute so maybe it was meant to be that way? Love whatever time you have. The right one will come along when the timing is right.
I met my Wife when she was 32 and I was 38, she turned out to be the Love I didn't know I needed.
Two different couples I know met after 35 (in one case the husband was nearly 40), got married, had two children, still going strong! So yes, 100% possible.
Met my husband on a blind date when I was 40. Worth the wait. 😊
Don’t lose hope! Met my fiancé when I was almost 36, he was 40. At that time in my life I decided to be open to any date or opportunity to meet someone new. So I said yes to any friend who wanted to set me up, even if it was someone outside my “norm” on the dating apps.
Met my now wife in May 2020 when I was 37 (turned 38 in June) on Plenty of Fish. Married on Jan 2023 when I was 40 and she was 36. We are celebrating 16 months of marriage today in Paris! It’ll happen, just focus on yourself, become the best version of yourself and the right one will come your way. Good luck! 🥰
Yes my aunty was like 38 I think . I must admit she is the only person I know that got her fairy tale at 38 .
You see it all the time with men .
I do feel for you I couldn’t imagine trying to date . Dating seems like it changed a lot
Met my wife at 48 and have been together since. That was 16 years ago and still going strong!
Yes my flatmate in London was 38 and gave up putting pressure on the situation and started embracing living her own best life. Moved out of the city during covid, found love and now 40s with baby.
Meet met second wife at 48 after a long bitter divorce to my first wife of 14 years. It can and does happen finding your true happiness later in life.
I met my husband when I was 43, he was 50. We married when I was 46. First marriage for both. Don't settle just because you're getting older. 35 Isn't old, I was still figuring out life then - I had my own house, I had my own money, I was self sufficient, all was good. I wouldn't change a thing.

Why do you need a wife to be happy tho?
