You’re swiping past them. Or you’re older 🤷🏼‍♂️

I gotcha. And yeah you are, my parents met when they were around your age.

FWIW, the apps suck for me too. It’s really hard to match with women I’d actually be interested in.

Apps are a super slim view at the market out there. I feel being out there with the people (bars, clubs, fitness centers, ice cream parlors, parks, etc) is best given your requirements.

There is practically an infinite number of single men on the apps. You must be only swiping on the married ones.

If I were to guess, I’d say:

1. Many men in your age range are already divorced and are swiping on younger women

2. Or you have unrealistic expectations in what you’re looking for and are swiping past the single ones

I relate to ur frustration at this state of my life

I’d say apps are just a tool for cheating on
Have u tried referencing , i knw it is challenging of finding genuine people but knowing through connections
Interest etc may be more effective and try to play smartly

Currently in a committed relationship and just came to the realization that I have actually never been single in my life. Sometimes I wonder what the single life is like.. just dating and doing whatever I want without having to think about a partner. Any one else ever felt like this? Or been in this situation?
