Come out of long term relationship and took time out. It's completely changed , women ask you out etc etc. So easy nowadays and no pressure.

Alright, no one likes a show off!!
Fair play to you. I'll be setting out on that journey once I've taken that time out you mention. It's a tough slog so, genuinely, well done to you for moving on and up.

Well I haven't had much choice! So it is what it is and I've got to just get on and make the most of it one way or another, with 3 kids to think about too.
Completely get your point, it's pretty damn far from a bed of roses!

So many people doing this these days.
All a bit sad if you ask me.

Interesting, I am not quite at your age (late 40s) but have seen it differently since I took up the single life.

Yes women are definitely more open to making the first move, but what I have found is that people are much easier to flake on you as the opportunity is everywhere. Dating apps are a minefield, with access to an unlimited amount of potential, but you have to remember that's the same for everyone. There is an interesting study on how dating apps have changed the game for women and their perspective. I am not one to rank people from 1-10 but in this video they basically outline that woman now chase the 8, 9 & 10s due to their perceived availability. These men has a field day on these apps. It skews the perspective on what people are willing to settle for. I am not against people punching higher than their level, but it does mean that there is an awful lot of men who just don't get anywhere due to this, which leads then to giving up on dating and go their own way. Which then leads to the question "where have all the men gone?" Some very interesting psychology and scientific research behind it, backed by nearly 20 years of data.

Overall I preferred it when I was in my 20s and 30s and things tended to move slowly and there wasn't so much opportunity to catch somebody elses eye.

Of course if you are a bronzed Adonis then you are not going to have this problem

For every good one there is a nutter they probably say the same. I find the best way is a relationship holidays nights out meet up a couple of times a week, But don't live with them have ur own space a lot to be said for it. I've been doing this for nine yrs.

Now are you talking dating with an aim to find a new LTR, or are you firmly back into 'playing the field' territory?

I agree different kettle of fish. You definitely have more options but loads have issues etc. Single life is definitely good but no rushing into anything.

No being open and honest see where it goes. Everyone different I guess.
