Single Rachelw8j3 From New York

About me

Hello there! I’m 2 year’s out from a divorce (42F)and ready to try OLD. I’ve tried Bumble, but find that it is limiting in the amount of information I can provide. I also find it limiting in that men cannot initiate a conversation with me-odd since that’s supposed to be it’s allure… 🤭🤷🏼‍♀️

That being said, I have friends that recommend Hinge, but they’re about 15 years younger than me so I worry their advice won’t translate well to someone my age. 😬 my question is: what OLD platforms have you successfully used? What were its strengths and limitations? Any advice for this clueless gal would be GREATLY appreciated! 🙏🏼😅

Thanks for reading and have a great day!
