I get you, I’m the same, I guess my advice sucks, honestly. Of course, just looking for hot singles is part of the problem. As an old man I can tell you looks don’t last but personality tends to.


Personality definitely fades. People change, become less fun, grow into different people.

Everything fades, so just get the best you can now and hope for the best.

Tinder Platinum sounding like a better value proposition now?


Not really, I’m married so I don’t need those, but everyone I know has had poor luck with them and I never had good luck with the previous generation of dating sites. The two rules of dating sites basically preclude my ugly ass from getting decent results anyways. Don’t listen to my bored crappy advice, clearly you know what works for yourself.


I’m curious, if you had to start dating again what would be your strategy?


I probably will soon the way this year is looking. I have no idea honestly, but apps are at the bottom of the it’ list for me, personally. Maybe I would join a volunteer organization or go to a match maker and pay actual money to them. Maybe go to places where I can do hobbies I enjoy and just talk to anyone. Ask other friends I know if they know anyone, things like that.
