Is It Worth It To Still Try To Date/Find Love After 40?

[Mac Brown]

I already accepted the fact that "love" isn't in the cards for me. Some of us have terrible luck in the romance department.

This right here!


It never came easy for me. I’m just gonna buy ho’s or look in the 5 to 10 yr younger range. ( but really I gave up)

 

[Balla]

One only to be honest. I talk to girls for a minute, I feel like it's going somewhere, and then they move on or we just stop talking. From 2017 to 2018 it was a carousel of that and I gave up. Love ain't for everybody man.

Oh got you bro. You’ll find a chick one day.

I'm 38 and I've all but given up. Also on antidepressants like Cig and I've lost all of my motivation. Ah well, I tried.

Thats sad asf

 

[Balla]

Reading this shyt makes me feel like I might have to have a kid soon to get it out the way.

I don’t wanna be a real old nikka with no kids or nothing, but I’m not gonna be ready to settle down for a while and who knows if I’ll find the right one by then.

 

[tuckgod]

Nah, just buy hookers and play video games.

Date women in their 20s? Maybe you can mold them.

Interracial dating breh, it will make you feel better trust me. You gonna feel a way looking at your own knowing you couldn’t do what other dudes could.

interracial dating will make you feel better, find a conservative spot and visit once in a blue moon.

very important for older dudes. Half my team met middle aged non black womenswear and wife’s them up. We were broke for years when we were young and no one wants the older black women especially if you couldn’t get the fine youngin.

My situation exactly man. Time after time. shyt be going well, I feel we’re vibing and working towards something meaningful, and then. Boom. Ghosted out of the blue for literally nothing or they give me some BS reason why they don’t wanna talk anymore (I.e, they met someone else with more money than me). shyt keeps happening too and my homies tell me it happens to them too, as well as dudes at work, my neighbors, etc. So I know it isn’t just me. I guess that’s just women and dating in 2020. I got tired of the same tired ass cycle. Got tired of setting myself up for disappointment so I just gracefully bowed out and started focusing on myself and learning to enjoy my own company. If someone real comes along who values loyalty and values being real and consistent, then I am open to possibilities. But that’s so rare and hard to find nowadays, that I ain’t holding my breath. Looks like solitude and the single life is my destiny

Gotdamn this is such a depressing fukking thread...

I don’t even know where to start with this and I recall having a similar convo with @Rawtid a year or two back...

Happiness starts within. When it comes to finding a mate, I believe it only isn't "in the cards" if you've never matured the toxicity, cancer, or ugliness that causes you to be undesirable. Which is a reality for some people, some of you guys really need to be looking harder at yourselves and why, by your own admission in this thread, "this keeps happening"...

Other than that, there's someone for everyone. Finding a mate isn't supposed to be easy, people enjoy different things and personalities vary. You have to find your match but you also can't force it...

 

[Yo Mama]

That's kinda my attitude towards my situation as well breh. Women are mad distracting and annoying, not to mention a perpetual drain on time, resources, and peace of mind. I get so much more accomplished and my mind is so much more at peace when I'm unattached and uninvolved. I suppress the random pangs of loneliness by listening to music, reading, watching TV or working out. It usually passes after a few days

Lol. Dont know why this made me laugh.
Making the rest of us reconsider possibly being single.

Pangs of loneliness?

 

[Yo Mama]

OP 40 isnt that old unless you are 40 and look 55+...

Lots of single financialy well off good-looking childless women over 30/35+.
