I'm same age and a woman (but lesbian). My perspective is different though but I do understand.
My advice - don't focus on the end goal. Which seems to be multiple:
- Be married
- Have kids
- Be in love
Those goals are all achievable by themselves and each one leads you toward the holy trinity.
Meet people that you can connect with. As a nerd who loves data analysis, you have 120 dates of data you can look into to determine trends. What was the good/bad parts of each date? That might help narrow things down for the future dates.
A lot of men are looking for atleast one of those (sometimes all of the above), but I've seen my male friends get overwhelmed for a lack of a better term when faced with all of them at once.
I know that's not the quick fix advice you want but I think that's the honest truth. There's lots of men out there.
Freezing your eggs is a possibility but I can understand the challenges/reluctance in that.
Good luck and I hope you will come back to this post in a year and add "PS. I found the love of my life and we're having twins!"
- actfrench 4y agoThank you for such a kind and encouraging note. I do think I get a little hung up on the order of these things . And I love the idea of looking at these as data points as opposed to , I’m so frustrated and defeated. I think I also get overwhelmed by the number of options on dating apps. I did freeze my eggs (thanks mom for the grand kids investment ) One thing I’ve learned as a tech entrepreneur is there aren’t quick fixes, not when hiring, not when building a company or finding love. I really appreciate you and your kind, warm words. I plan in trying everyone’s suggestions and I will circle back ! Many blessings , good vibes, big hugs or whatever you like in terms of positive intentions your way
