I’m only 24


Should I start searching for a girlfriend now? I hear dating gets much harder when you’re older.

reply

The longest-lasting marriages start when a person get married between the ages of 28 to 32. Just a statement I heard somewhere.

reply

If you're sincere and not trolling, I recommend you go out in the real world and met other people doing things.

As Winnie the Pooh said, It's friendlier with two.

reply

Son, you're already too late. Become a priest in the Himalaias or something.

reply

Yeah, there's something seriously wrong with this picture. He claims to have an ex-girlfriend that he's still on good terms with yet needs to come here to solicit advice on just now, how to begin dating? 🙄 The suspicion of trolling has been mentioned several times in this thread and that's what it is.

I sense sockery!

reply

Be nice to fat chicks - they all have slutty girlfriends.

reply

Pursue a career in professional wrestling and the girlfriends will follow.

reply

Definitely date now. By 24 you should already be doing it.

reply

Thing is, finding a girl ain’t easy. I think I might be the only single person at my job.

reply

It ain't easy!??? With social networks and dating apps I think it got way easy, also I've notice that a lot of girls seem to be proud about whoring around

reply

Can’t get any matches on apps

reply

Impossible

When I was on active duty, I'd go to Algarve (Portugal) and it would be a sure shot

Depends how rich you are.

reply

Yup. I had a girlfriend in my 50s who was an obvious gold digger. I once described her as, having a Red Lobster appetite but living on a McDonald's budget. We were always at odds because of our views on how to handle money. She eventually found her mark, a retiree with money and engineered a conflict to end our relationship. She had him waiting in the wings. They dated for a few weeks then hurriedly married. That marriage lasted only four weeks. She completely startled me one night by knocking on my door and announcing it was over. He had booted her out, going so far as to take her wedding ring. Life's lessons are teachers.

reply

Most certainly!

You're only 24?

What are you doing here?

Go out and have some fun. Play basketball, work out, party it up, get a girl...

You are wasting your time on social media if you really are that young.

Cuz this you can count on, once your prime youthful years are gone, they are gone for good.

Live it up while you are there (if in fact you really are).

reply

What happens if I don’t get invited to parties.

reply

Oh brother.

C'mon man.

If you really are a young man (which I continue to have doubts on), create your own fun.

You can always HAVE a party. And you can always, as I did on Friday nights, go out clubbing and dancing.

And guess what - girls go to the clubs, too.

Sunday morning go out and play football with your friends. In the summer you can play basketball or softball. The point is this - all of this fun stuff I'm talking about, it will end, not because you want it to, but because your body no longer allows it.

Not too much left by the time you reach your 50s - this is when it's a good time to be on social media.

reply

I don’t have any real life friends

reply

What do you like to do? Just do it outside the house so you're meeting people.

Do inexpensive activities where you can meet young women. Take classes (my library has free ones), go on group trips, church (some have single groups), volunteer, hobbies, meetup.com groups, tour groups, art class, neighborhood ballgames, neighborhood activities, etc..

Look through your local newspaper to see which activities interest you.

Maybe some people you know can set you up on a blind date because they know someone who is looking too.

reply

You can stop being a whiny boy and just show up at parties.

What the hell are they gonna do?

Show up with some wine or a case of beer, fuck ‘em, if they act up fake a face punch and when they back up scrunch their balls very violently.

You may not be allowed into any
party again but they’ll NEVER forget your name.

reply

I’m not being a whiny boy. I’m telling the truth. The only person who talks to me is my ex girlfriend who I’m still friends with. Everyone else I have to talk to first or else they’d never talk to me. (Which is fine because I’m at least lucky they reply to me)
