Is it just me??

I'm 39 and am online/dating.
I'm looking at men up to 47ish, purely because a lot of profiles of guys my age are looking for younger women or children and that is a total no no for me (been there, done it).
I think you just need to not set brackets or expectations, it's meant to be fun.
I've got 2 dates this week with 2 different guys, just drinks/dinner and plan on having a good time.
Until I end up in the bedroom with someone I would not expect to stop dating other guys and vice versa (if that makes sense? )0 -

He asked me out, we hadn't even gone out and he text to say he'd taken someone else out. I'm not narrowing the field, I just think why tell me!0 -
I'm 25, and have been with my bf for 2 and a half years.
I'd had a bf in Uni, we were on and off for a few years but when I came home after uni we were completely over. I used online dating apps for a while (not tinder!) and had a few dates, and had a 6 month relationship with a guy that made me feel like sh** We broke up, and I was just in that stage of s*d it I'm gonna go out and enjoy being single. That night I was invited out by a guy friend who'd been down the pub with some of his mates that I'd not met before. I went down there, my friend went to the back of the pub for a while and I was left with his friends. Incidentally, one of his friends was in the same friendship group as me (knew my female friends etc) but we'd never met in person. I'd seen him around on FB and liked him. He felt sorry for me as I'd been left on my own, got me a drink, we got chatting, ended up snogging in the local club and that was it from there! :rotfl:
He told me he'd seen me out a few years before but he was so super shy that he couldn't find the confidence to approach me. To be honest, we probably only got together that first night because he'd been day drinking and felt good. But, it has developed into something where he is my absolute best friend and I can't imagine life without him.
I suppose my point is, I'd actually given up on finding anyone and then that night I found someone. It's so cliche but it happens when you least expect it. And so often it's someone that you already know, whether directly or indirectly.0 -
There's a guy in MSE Arms who's moaning about the same thing.

Where are all the 25-35 year old single men hiding?
Try xbox live!
Im in that middle of that age bracket and the single people my age seem to all be at a gym according to their facebook status.
I know a few single people who have taken the opportunity to go travelling, seems to have worked well for most either finding someone and staying abroad or bringing them back. Certainly forces you to meet people.0
