I'm married so probably not.

Seriously though,I couldn't get into a relationship with s 30 yo. She's got years left for kids, growing her career and finding out who she wants to be.

There's a risk that those don't bring you closer, and you find out just in time for her to be almost 40.

On the other hand; Have occasional fun with a 30 yo and resist anything serious... Maybe.

Women answering the question likely skew to no, Men likely skew to yes (even if, as D1 says, it would never lead to anything serious)
My response - good God no, but some of them sure are cute! But no - not even for fun. Most men are barely any good in the sack before 40.

Yes, and most men do not know how to be intimate/talk before 40.

No. Because they feel like children (my daughter is 30, may be that colors my perspective )

No. I want someone who has similar/shared life experience. I once dated a guy 14 years older than me and realized one day how we were at completely different life stages that were somewhat incompatible

Sure if it’s nothing serious. Let them rock your world. Just make sure they are not in it for the money!

Not sure. But it would be nice to give it a try and find out!

No but I am 60! 😳. Even though I feel and look like I am in my mid 40’s

I'm 21 but I graduated college really early and I'm a analyst on track for promotion next year. Most guys my age are still in school and the ones older than me are hesitant because I look really young and I'm 6-7 years younger than most of them . Has anyone navigated dating in a similar situation

M here. I don’t know what it is genuinely that I’m doing wrong. I get barely matches on dating app; I don’t have the shiny muscles to show off on the apps, a 7 or 8 looks wise, great personality, and can easily to talk to anyone. I don’t know how to take the conversation out of the friendly zone to make a girl realize that I want to be sexual with her. Especially F 🐠s, would love to hear your POV on this as I’m sure you’ve encountered guys like me before. M 🐠s, let me hear your take too.

Haven’t done the dating thing in a while so need advice! (F here) Met a guy at a party on Sat, followed each other on insta, then I dm’ed him my number saying “lmk if you want to get drinks sometime”. He then texts me and says something along the lines of “yeah let’s do it” but doesn’t offer any concrete plan. Does this mean he’s not super into it? Or am I overreacting and I should initiate the plan? I initiated the insta follow and the dm so I feel like it’s his turn…?
