[quote=Anonymous]The experience on the dating apps will be different, for sure. I'm not 60 yet but am over 55 and get a much lower match rate already than I did when I last used the apps as a 48-50 yo. I get plenty of likes but not that many matches with the men my age that I find attractive. I get more likes from younger men presumably looking to hook up with an older woman and from men that I consider too old for me. I've been on a few dates and am currently kind of seeing someone a few years younger. It's not a complete bust. But, IMO, at this age the apps no longer work very well. If you're open to a broad age range you might do better. I have tight parameters for age and tighter parameters for distance because all I want is someone compatible to go out every now and then. I don't care if I don't get a lot of matches. I'm not using the apps to pair up for life at this point.

I think that past 55, it's better to meet people IRL than on apps, where a good portion of the men in our age group are focusing on younger women and won't even see you because of their settings.[/quote]
