35, recently single. Having way less luck with the ladies this go round than I was before.

It's been 5 years, so I know I'm older, but I'm actually improved in every way since the last time I was single. Health wise, financially, mentally, etc.. but none of that has helped my game it seems these days.

Idk, did covid throw a monkey wrench in things?


It's pretty easy to get discouraged. I'm not exactly the man of anyone's dreams but I feel like I have enough going for me that it shouldn't be this hard and yet here I am. Lots of competition and as others have said women can afford to be very picky now so unless you check every box they don't need to bother.

I'd be interested in hearing from a woman's pov though because so many of the complaints I see are from guys. Maybe it's never been a better time to be a thirtysomething woman? I don't know.

Women can only afford to be picky while younger, but eventually they lose that power. Don't give women power over you like that because everything changes as time goes on.


If they wait too long they lose on everything.

Get off of Instagram and TikTok. I know what you're seeing, but it's not real life. If you get a date off of sliding into some woman's DMs, she had 20 other dudes trying it this week.

Meet women in real life, it's much easier. It'll help build your confidence back up, too. A lack of confidence is probably the number one attraction killer for women.

I find the opposite, there's never been a better time to be a divorced man in his 30/40/50s. Women are fitter than ever, they've been sexually "liberated," they're OK with people knowing there is wine in their tumbler at the baseball game, etc. Target rich environment. In person.

I know females in their 30s who are unbelievably picky. It’s nuts.
