What dating tips/advice do you have?

For me, who hasn't yet dated strangers I'll be meeting for the first time. I've only ever dated one guy since I was 22 and we were acquaintances for a while before dating. That relationship lasted 14 years. It's over now, I'm 36 and new to the app-based dating scene.

I have an upcoming date with this guy I've never met in person and I'm kinda scared.

Just relax and have fun. Times change. Karma doesn’t always throw the ideal man in front of you. The app allows you to cull through the crowd a bit and, at least, have a reasonable introduction.

I met my current wife on Match in late 17’ and was married in July 23’. I think using a paid site helps weed out those that aren’t serious, at least that was my logic. It seemed to work.

@Adogslife thank you. Yes I'm experiencing that culling, one of the more convenient features of the apps for sure.

Inspiring. You give me hope. I understand your logic. I'm glad it worked out for you💜
