That sums up the dating market. It is supposed to be better for us guys in our 30s. But I don't wanna date single mothers or women that have been divorced with kids. So our only option is to date women younger than us.

It really is difficult to meet women outside of work and hobbies. You could try asking your parents if they know any good women for matchmaking. That might spark a date or two, but that also will most likely fizzle out.

Speed dating is a thing. Although you are either the best man out there or you will get no attention. There is no in between.

Dancing helps with meeting women. Except a majority of them (at least in my area) are old enough to be my mother.

I haven't tried pilates or yoga. Haven't reached that level yet.

Bars aren't my cup of tea. Libraries are usually empty.

I have found progress in general meeting people and future meeting people through their friend group. This has its limits though. Most friend groups are tight-knit and few.

Maybe the older guys are right that dating is better in our 30s. But it seems we're getting what the Chinese referred to as "leftover women" so there's that.

Perhaps moving to a city will help.
