[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It depends on what sort of relationship you're looking for. Finding men who are emotionally and financially stable and truly available for a LTR is hard for everyone. It's easy to get men to go out on a date with you if you are not choosy and if you have a half way decent body and face. And it's even easier to have hook ups. No matter what, you need to be visually appealing if you're going to do the apps, and the apps are generally the best way for busy working parents to find someone. For LTRs, the fact that your kids are grown adults will be a plus. That should send the message to men that you aren't looking to have another baby with them and that they won't be expected to help carry the parenting burden. As a PP said, it matters where you are carrying the weight. I am the same height and weighed 185 at my heaviest. But I retained an hourglass shape even with all that extra weight, which helped a lot. Some people gain weight and it all goes to the abdomen and makes you look like a big block and really ages you. No matter what, I'd focus on your Ozempic weight loss and toning your body for at least 6 months so that you can look your best when you take pictures for the apps. I also think you need to address your low libido before starting a new relationship. Having low libido would really obscure what you're feeling for a man, and I imagine it would really confuse him or be a turn off. Hopefully, the weight loss will fix most of this. But I'd see a doc about menopause ASAP. [/quote] This is a good advice. I also recommend OP to go deep in therapy and understand her main issues behind the last break-up. Those issues could be from when you were a kid, previous marriage etc and need to be dealt with before you start another relationship. It is very easy if you only want to date and sleep around but I felt that to be hollow at your age. Being a female, I never got the same satisfaction for intimacy as I would get in a relationship.
