Is 35 too old to find ‘the one’?

[Scarlettfeather]

I’ve had a series of bad relationships, including with the father of my child.
He’s now 5 years old and I’m single.
I want to find someone who is in love with me for who I am, who wants to be with me and wants to spend their life with me, for better or worse.

Is 35 too old to believe I’ll find that person? I don’t even know where to start

Nope, found mine in my forties (after a couple of practice runs).

Stop looking and they'll find you.

I met my dh at 41. He was 31!! Been together 10 years this year. Been married 7 this year and have a ds.

Definitely definitely not too old .

Of course not ❤️

I hope not!

I’m the same age as you, DS also 5. Been single since he was 6mo.

I don’t believe in “the one”, as it goes. I believe in “the one you meet at the right time and stay with for as long as it makes you both happy, which will hopefully be forever but might be 5,10, or 20 years.”

Takes some of the pressure off

Definitely not

I was almost 35, now 43 with two small children and a pony

Definitely not too old at all :)

I was 34 very nearly 35, married after 10 months and very very happy

I hope not. Or at 41 I'm screwed

Still young enough

And to the pp with the crap about stop looking and they'll come to you - that shite is never helpful

I was 44 and wasn’t even looking for a relationship - quite happily single.

Of course you're not too old.
Maybe work on the issues that led you to have a series of bad relationships, rather than looking for an elusive ideal to 'complete' you.

You are still young. I met my dh when I was 40.

I hope not!!!!

Of course it's not, many people have and do. One of my very good friends fell in love with her now fiance aged 39. Another friend met current beau aged 48.

absolutely not

You’re definitely not too old to meet someone like you describe.

I was 46 when I met Mr Pony, and he is absolutely the love of my life.

My aunt let the one in her 50s they recently got married aged 60 :)

Met

I was 56 when I met “the one”. Still going strong years later.
You have so much time just be more choosy (sp?) than I was in earlier years.

Not too old.

But you do have to get out and date.

Nope, I met mine at 39. We got married last year

I was 35 when I met dh after a marriage in my 20's.
At that age as well you know more what you want, and importantly what you don't want.
We got married after 7 months and just had our 18th wedding anniversary (and have a 16 yo ds)
Keep the faith
