I'm in my early 50s in a big city. I divorced three years ago. I've been on the dating apps for a few years with some success. I had a one-year relationship which I truly miss (I wasn't healthy enough to hold on) and a few three-month relationships that didn't work for me.

I've been back on the apps for about six months and I'm striking out left and right. I think I'm reaching too far out of my lane and coming up empty. All the girls seem to have turned super model on Hinge. Dunno if it's an algorithm thing or not, but they're 9s and 10s and put me to shame.

Has anyone tried speed dating? Better or worse?
