In a dating crisis whereist women doing better don't date down because of the conflict it causes if she can't get him into college to get him brought up to her level. Global warming threats, time poverty from work. Or just mixed match of bad!
Anyway you see it most lifespans are 75ish! If you are over 50 you know you only have 20 years to go. The "You will find love in good time" is just not real thinking. Being 75ish in a time sometime when people start migrating to a cooler climate fighting for housing, jobs, food and being 75ish trying to compete with everyone, not even to say about the high CO2 and heart stress. I know I won't make that being 75 in that time! https://www.cnn.com/videos/business/2023/08/25/urban-heat-island-effect-drones-contd-orig-nb.cnn
So as for dating, a relationship is just what you make it. No need for marriage, open for Polyamory, Cicisbeo, Lovers to make a better life for both, it's just what both agree to do. Live now! I'll take the highway not the dirt road so I don't show up with workers comp to the finish line!
This is a time for action than to play in dating. No time for that!
