I'm a 43 year old male, divorced for 10 years. I'm thinking to trying to find someone special. Any thoughts on Tinder? Is there another service that might be better?
Success on tinder relies 99% on your looks, because that's the only information you get about the person there. It's generally more suited for young people who are looking for something less serious ( though not necessarily just hookups)
OKCupid allows for more focus on personality.

From an oldfag to a youngfag, can you offer advice to someone with a broken heart?

Start with sufficient time, and then start with being happy with yourself. During this time, I became a planner too.
>>18296179
>divorced
the first failed. what makes you think the second wont?
match is popular among people looking for something serious. plenty of fish is too i think. bumble can go either way, tinder tends to be more casual but like anything can lead to something serious with the right person.
the fact that you're actually looking for someone special is going to help you get dates no matter what you use.

Why don't you just use an escort service OP?
I'd be a lot cheaper in the long run.

OP here...
the first never was... there is a difference between a marital relationship and a legal marital status. I probably should not have mentioned the divorce as it is not relevant. There definitely will not be a second marriage. I'm just looking for someone to share quality time.

I'm not looking for sex; besides, escort too risky
>>18296363
>someone to share quality time.
*someone to have sex with.

you; yourself, don't even believe that op.

As a younger woman, how much younger would you be willing to date? Just curious.

OP here.
maturity is the real measure to be considered
>I'm not looking for sex
Well, women don't usually like being around liars so just drop that shit.
Fetlife is a great community to be a part of where like minded people can be found.

>Fetlife
OP here
That's funny... that is probably the biggest problem. They probably will not believe me when I say no sex and then get extremely upset when I reject their sexual advances.
Have you ever told a woman no? That's when you see the true woman inside. (I'm trying to not say the b-word).
>>18296458
Obviously you've never been to Fetlife or successfully talked to a woman before. Women don't just throw themselves onto your dick. And by some miracle it comes to the point where she wants to have sex with you and you tell her no, well no shit it's going to make her feel horrible about herself. Maybe you should actually tell her the reason you don't want sex. Fuck, no wonder you're divorced
How long were you married for
Was it a good run
Do you have any children
What did it feel like having a wife who loved you
If not, what did it feel like having a wife who didn't love you
What is the best advice you can give about women and marriage
What is your favorite anime and meme
Favorite video game?

OP here
no, I've never been to fetlife but will check it out. thanks.
I've never had a woman literally throw themselves onto my dick, but I have had women pursue me and make it clear that they were available if only I asked. I would say that it's because I'm just that quality of a man.
Sex complicates relationships.
I'm divorced because I finally listened when she told me her boyfriend was more important then me. The reality is that we simply had conflicting perspectives.
My point in establishing this thread was to gain more information about tinder or find a different service for meeting women. I don't drink alcohol either and have no interest in bars or clubs. So, I'm looking for a particular type of woman.
Good luck to you. I'll be signing off soon.

>a literal cuck
Hahahah, oh wow
Try okcupid, tinder is SHIT SHIT SHIITTT
Fetlife is full of unloyal/disfunctional women, but you could try that as well, its great for knowing new people quickly
>>18296478
>How long were you married for
legally, 13 years, but were only together or 5 years
>Was it a good run
no, horrible from start to end
>Do you have any children
2, both adults now
>What did it feel like having a wife who loved you
>If not, what did it feel like having a wife who didn't love you
I don't believe she did. it was horrible. no trust, no partnership, no love,
>What is the best advice you can give about women and marriage
too much needs to be said here. my fault was marrying someone I didn't know; married in a month. people view marriage differently. oh, some really good advise is to _really_ talk and listen to women. I'm probably going to write a book so that no one will read it. :)
>What is your favorite anime and meme
I like American dad, check out S02E16, 16:08. that would make a great meme.
>Favorite video game?
I don't like video games. I code for fun and read current events/news. I'm trying to figure out 4chan. perhaps someone can explain how to avoid the captcha every darn time. ;)

>plenty of fish is too i think
As a faggot who is currently using POF in Arizona: From my experiences i'd say that it is NOT for serious people.
The pool is large but the ghosting is heavy and a fucking shitload of girls make it astronomically difficult to both meet and talk with them. In the best case scenario where they actually respond to you they'll either keep their answers agonizingly short (Ex: "Awesome" "I can" "idk") or make it difficult and awkward when you try to get a date going (EX1: "I have to check" or "I'm out of town") (EX2: "I'll tell you later" or "At my place" when you ask where you'll pick her up) which is just met with ghosting when you try to defend the plans and yourself. Plus chances are high that you're even going to have to remind them of the date else you'll get "OHLOL I FORGOT!"
Also a LOT of the girls are considerably ghetto and are substance users. Molly,Weed(the biggest),cocaine,you name it and you can find a girl who is into it.
