I'm a catch.
Good looking. Own house. Decent Savings/Earnings. Interesting career. No children (which is a sadness for myself - but I can see the benefits for a potential partner). Educated. Well-Spoken/Travelled/Cultured. I'm Witty, Kind & Generous. I'm independent, can cook, drive, do diy, I'm stylish, happy, strong, worldly, compassionate, no health issues either physical or mental, I have close friends Etc etc etc.
(I'm sorry if this comes across big-headed, I'm actually modest in RL and actually all of the above would apply to all my female friends - but they are all coupled up).
Unfortunately I'm in my mid-40s.
I've been on the free apps on and off since my married ended in divorce a year ago.
I don't live a big city, but I'm not too rural.
I'm sorry, I've been on a few dates, and had a couple of short flings, but the men on these apps aren't worth my time.
I'm sure there are lovely ones on there, but I guess I'm looking for a life partner, and I want an equal, these men don't appear to be that.
I know I'm going to have to make a name change after this post because I'm coming across as a bitch, but I'm just saying it as I see it.
I work in a tiny female only environment, I'm not changing careers or where I live, I love them both too much.
I'm not into 'male' hobbies or the gym, I do exercise, but mostly alone as that's my down time. None of my friends/family know of any men of my age who are single and dateable.
Where am I going to meet a guy? I miss sex, intimacy, cosy chats, kisses, human contact and love.
Someone at work suggested Match or Eharmony are they worth signing up for?
Do introduction agencies still exist?
I'm losing hope and I have so much to give to a relationship, I'm fed up of being single!
