Screenshot of 2 comments on Reddit. One user asks this to the OP: “I'm in a similar situation, I deleted the apps and I feel so much better. However, I don't really know how to ask them out. I am quite chatty on the events and I spark conversations with guys when I see it's the right moment. I had some nice experiences which may lead so something more. But often I don't know how to approach a guy and show that I actually wanna go on a date. Do you have any tips for that? Anyway, congrats on deleting the apps, I also think meeting people in real life is so much better, and I'm aiming to stay off the apps this year. OP: “I don’t ask, I make it a statement. ‘Let me get your number, we should go out,’ works really well. Be very direct and expect rejection so you’re chill about it.”

Huh.

Dating after 40 feels like a social experiment with no control group. You’ve done the type, the opposite, the “let’s give him a chance”… and all roads still lead to disappointment and delusion. At this point, dinner alone sounds peaceful. #DatingAfter40 #SingleLife #Peace #MorningMindset

Boundaries matter. You don’t have to sit and “fix” anyone’s pain on a date. Be compassionate, sure, but don’t carry their emotional baggage.
