[quote=Anonymous]I'm divorced and in my 50s. I've done OLD both recently and back in my early 30s. The quality of the men is about the same, TBH. But I found it much easier in my 50s because I no longer cared about finding someone in time to have kids with him, and I was much clearer about what characteristics really matter in a partner. Half the battle with OLD is not wasting your time on men who aren't worth it and that's easier to discern with a mature man. To find a great man, you need to screen out all the losers. Only chat with men who say they're looking for a LTR and who state they no longer want kids. Any man over 50 who says he wants or is unsure about kids should be avoided. Screen for men who are seeking women with at least a college degree. Avoid anyone who has children still living at home. If you're in DC, expand your geographic boundaries to include the suburbs because that's where divorced men who kept the house are located. Don't meet anyone in person till you have his full name and place of employment so that you can do a check to make sure he's legit. If he doesn't ask you out within a week of "meeting" online, drop him and move on because he's not serious and is likely just feeding his ego and might be married. Get a Google phone number so that you can text off the app without giving out your cell number. [/quote]
