    tldr: it’s when you stop reaching out that new relationships stop forming.

    I’m about ten years older and just started up a relationship with a woman a few years above me, so you certainly still have time.

    i was ghosted a couple months before i net my current girlfriend, it just happens with online dating, i think it’s scary for a lot of people to even try out relationships.

    plus, if they had red flags, I’m glad to hear it didn’t work out tbh.

    stay patient and determined, don’t compromise on what you want from the relationship, try different apps or even offline, but don’t get discouraged by any means.

    every time I’m single i feel exactly like “I’ve become too old for making friends or dating” and then every time I’m in a new relationship I find out I’m not.

    people do have a more difficult time forming relationships the older they are, friendships or otherwise.

    It seems many people get more invested in their own world and tend to branch out less the older they get, but I have still been making friends and being in relationships at a decade older than you so there’s no cutoff line for forming new relationships and I don’t see any cutoff line in the future either.

    it’s when you stop reaching out that new relationships stop forming.
