yea to all of this; i think it’s natural to feel jealous or down about your own situation
@DollyDiamondxo but, like sprottish says, sometimes being in a relationship isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. people, especially those in newer relationships, will always show the best side of it and not the meals they go to when they’re both on their phones, the arguments, the sheer amount of women i work with who have married teenage boys in grown mens’ bodies etc. 90% of the time i’m very glad to come home to my little house. the other 10% is tricky though.
i’m lucky to still have a fair few single friends around my age. we’re all in that difficult 35-40 age bracket though where men our age want 25 year old models
enjoy your date
@Sprottish! i hope it goes well
