Dating 40+ in south Jersey.

[u/SpareEducational5920]

Seeing all these South Jersey dating posts from the 20-somethings made me realize… where are the 40+ people at?

Surely I’m not the only one whose ideal date now includes decent conversation, no games, maybe tacos, maybe a Target run, and being home before midnight because lower back pain is undefeated.

South Jersey has to be full of people who still like music too loud in the car, random late night Wawa trips, horror movies, tattoos, sarcasm, and pretending we’re “just browsing” at HomeGoods.

Single, divorced, separated, emotionally exhausted… whatever your status is, how are people over 40 actually meeting anymore around here?

And yes ladies, there are still some normal straight dudes around. We’re just harder to spot now because we blend into brewery crowds and garden centers.

Imma delete this unless you're interested in making it the monthly dating thread. Some other dude was doing this and disappeared. Don't want this community full of dating posts. Want it all in one place... or another subreddit altogeter.

Like repost it monthly? Sure!

Yes, just a general dating thread no age limits (like obviously no under 18). If you could do that, it would be super helpful for me and the subreddit! I'll pin this post to our highlights 😄

But that defeats the 40s target!

A recommendation: /r/WoW does individual posts under the main thread for different classes and people reply to that. Maybe do posts underneath like 20-29, 30-39, etc etc?

We don't need ten thousand different dating posts. I was gonna make it NO dating posts, but was ok with one big dating thread a month. Would you rather there be no dating posts at all? This is the compromise.
