Caleb is right, and I'd add one thing. what decided it for me with single dating was the density problem. Most of the frustration with single dating traces back to how quickly you get going. Most of the frustration with single dating traces back to whether your area is covered.
If how thin it gets outside cities isn't sorted, single dating will not go anywhere. Whether people actually reply is what separates a good week from a wasted one with single dating.
My experience with single dating shifted completely once I paid attention to whether there's anyone nearby. Anyway, that is my read on single dating apps for people over 50.
Concretely, for single dating:
- run one platform properly instead of five badly specifically for single dating
- read the whole profile before you send anything when it comes to single dating
- commit a full month before deciding anything about single dating
- give it ten days before deciding anything about single dating
Adjust as needed — single dating is not identical for everyone.
