But there is. It's all the people aging into the dating apps. That's how it works. The rate of people leaving is balanced by new people arriving.

- chongli 8mo agoNo, they aren't. If you're in your 40s you aren't looking to date people in their 20s. Where's the influx of other people in their 40s to date?
- crazygringo 8mo agoWhat do you mean? From recently divorced people, of course, if you want to look at that age bracket. But it's the same principle.
- echelon 8mo ago> If you're in your 40s you aren't looking to date people in their 20s. My building is full of divorced 40-somethings dating younger. You see it all over media too. Leonardo DiCaprio is famous for this, and he's hardly the only one. Women date younger too. My wife's TikTok is full of women empowerment videos; the number of videos on her feed that talk about this is not inconsequential. Plenty of people to date.
