    I find it much easier!

    • People are less shy
    • They have more experience
    • They know better what they are looking for
    • Their fantasy marriage/life has been renounced
    • People are much more chill about sex matters
    • Their romantic histories are quite telling
    • Most people have their own place
    • Careers are mostly stable

    /

    Cons

    • Much smaller dating pool
    • Many have kids already
    • More difficult to make friends/meet people in general

      speak for yourself. i have found dating as a 30+ adult to be way more dramatic and miserable than it was in my 20s.

      nobody in my 20s was having a temper tantrum at dinner because the restaurant isn’t expensive enough for their ‘brand’.

          nah it’s multiple dates. it’s also a common attitude that men need to ‘impress’ dates by spending a lot at restaurants otherwise they ‘devalue’ a woman. asking someone out on a cheap date to get to know them isn’t the point… the point is to win them over by spending money on them.

          basically a lot of people see dating as prostitution with extra steps. and wonder why they are single.

            Dude, I’ve been on many, many dates in my 30s. I have never experienced this in the least and I am a frugle date. I recommend reevaluating your “type” of women if this is a recurring thing.
