How to find Mr Right or at least a decent man ? Hello all Can you share tips on finding the right partner or a decent man ? What to look for and what you would see as immediate red flag ? The pool of men in their 30s or early 40s seems shocking. Or is it me ? Trying OLD, not got much chance to meet anyone the old school way due to very limited time. Can you share your success stories of when you thought you weren’t going to meet the right partner and they came along ? Fed up woman 🙈 OP posts: See next See all. Prinnny · 13/09/2024 19:54. My friends have had success on the OLD sites that you have to pay for, seems to attract men who are more serious about meeting someone rather than a casual fling. Claire903 · 13/09/2024 19:58. It’s very, very difficult once you get deep into 30’s and into 40’s. I wish you good luck though! OldTinHat · 13/09/2024 20:01. Ask yourself, why do you want a man? Companionship, sex, someone to empty the bins? fluffiphlox · 13/09/2024 20:01. I would have thought the decent ones have stayed with their partners. By the time anyone’s in their forties, they’ve probably already been married and got children. If they’re now single there will be some baggage. Doggymummar · 13/09/2024 20:03. Try Laura Buckley, you will find her in Linkedin or Google. She’s from Brighton and is an excellent matchmaker. Currently in Bali, but working. Secret Alchemy is her company Edited.

I’d like a full package to be fair. I feel I’m quite close to full package and very versatile. I don’t seem to find anyone that matches my energy 😪 OP posts: See next See all.

I think it was the match.com one but the paid version, two have had long term relationships from there and one is recently engaged! All lovely fellas. Whereas my other friend has been doing hinge and another free one I can’t remember the name of and she’s had nothing but timewasters! GreyCloudsAbove · 14/09/2024 10:25. Prinnny · 14/09/2024 10:23.

Thank you, hinge, Bumble and the rest are really full of time wasters ! Such a shame. I might give Match a go 😎 OP posts: See next See all. WitcheryDivine · 14/09/2024 10:29. Be very very fussy about the red flags and quite open about more general things. Eg you might want to be more flexible in either direction on things like age, on what kind of job they have etc – but no second chances if they seem lazy, unkind, unreliable etc Edited. AllyPally7 · 14/09/2024 10:31. I think it’s best to start by having a really clear idea of the fundamentals of what you value in a relationship, and also accept that love can take time to grow. Maybe focus on kindness, mutual respect and friendship rather than looks and romance, which can easily fade. I found someone on an old style dating site when I’d given up! So perhaps focus on enjoying life as it is, expanding your horizons through travel, learning or hobbies but be open to possibilities at the same time, rather than a quest to find ‘the one’. alpacachino · 14/09/2024 10:33. The key is volume. Date many. Reject as soon as you lose interest. Decide if you’re the sort of person who can be a step parent or not early on. Mrsttcno1 · 14/09/2024 10:41. I think as others have said, when you’re looking at 30’s/40’s you’d be best deciding how you feel about certain things or what you are looking for in a relationship early on to weed out anybody you’re incompatible with. So as an example, decide how you feel about being a step parent, or being with a man who has kids. In that age bracket many will be divorced/separated from long term partners, so there will be some baggage there, decide what your hard lines would be on that early on. As an example a man who is divorcing but still cohabiting with his ex, everyone has a different opinion, you need to decide what yours is. And in general what you want out of a relationship, you haven’t mentioned your age but think about things like do you want kids? Are you looking for someone to start a family with? Are you looking for someone you’d want to buy a house with etc? I have a few friends in the online dating game who have been in it for awhile and it can be ruthless so I know what you mean, lots of people who want dates/sex but not so much long term relationships.
