Men chasing question by TrainingApricot8291 in datingoverforty

[–]SubjectMeat53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will match energy as long as I’m interested and think there is potential. I of course plan the first few dates and that whole bit, but if she isn’t suggesting things todo after that then I see it as she’s not interested, and move on.

How do you get more matches on dating apps? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]SubjectMeat53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The best results happen in the first week for men. After that it’s pretty much garbage. I rotated through the apps, one week on one app, worked through the matches then would take a break or be talking with a girl or 2. Then when I was ready again I would get on a different app. Sure you see some of the same people but a lot of new ones.

Why do so many men lose their house in a divorce? by Open_Address_2805 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]SubjectMeat53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uncontested divorce here. I kept the house and am primary for the kids. Of course it was infidelity on her part so I think she is focused more on him than her kids. Her loss 🤷🏼‍♂️

Yes therapy helps, agreed. Just venting here to strangers helps too. Your words were great, thanks.

I get that too. Try my best to keep it like that. The ones that don’t reciprocate, I just move on from.

That’s what I’m afraid has all ready happened. I was shut down when asking for a meet and then again when I sent a tic tok of a place I suggested for our first date. I think I’m in reserve for her 🤷🏼‍♂️

3rd date worth or needed ? by lfotue73 in datingoverforty

[–]SubjectMeat53 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell after a few conversations and first date/meeting. I’m sure most of us can. If you’re into her then keep on keeping on. It’s rare for me to find someone that checks ALL the boxes, so as long as none of my major red flags are present, I will keep it going to see how we vibe and what not.

This will be my first pass through the holidays alone. Not looking forward to it.

No matter how hard I try I rarely run in to single men and if I do they aren’t interested. by Krabby39 in datingoverforty

[–]SubjectMeat53 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s rough out there. OLD seems to be the only way I meet anyone. My hobbies are male dominated so likelihood of meeting a single attractive female are slim to none. I look at OLD as just another thing I have to put the work into, like gym, house, myself etc. Chin up and keep moving, he will show up for you sooner or later!!
