  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.
  6. Absolutely no NSFL content.
  7. Be nice. Don't take anything personally. Take political debates to the appropriate communities. Take personal disagreements & arguments to private messages.

I'm 40 now (married and have a son). My younger family members in their late 20s are having such a hard time with dating that they're opting in for arranged marriage (which is common for Southeast Asians).

yeah. plenty of fish / ok cupid era I had a date every night for two weeks at one point met some great people, a few relationships, then met my wife "organically"

Tinder only worked for the 80% m4m hookup, occasional m4f at like festivals or big events.

Fuckin a man. Sometimes I'm envious of people still on the dating adventure, but I feel really sorry for my friends that are dating and dating and can't find mutual love. I've been married for over 20 years and I feel so fucking lucky.

Love that you did not capitalize the A in the first phrase. Leaves room for interpretation.

I’m divorced and bottom part of GenX, but I’ve just been so busy building stuff I never went seriously looking for a partner afterwards. How bad is it out there… after I get management lined out on my current pet project I might want to start dating again.

I've seen too many horror stories about dating today

Feel kinda bad for the younger generations. At this point they can't even go to other countries to find a significant other because they'll just plague those other countries too with their degenerate social culture.
