24 Hard Truths About Dating After 30: Reddit Thread

Dating in your 30s is a whole new ballgame compared to your 20s. Think of it this way, all the rules have changed, all the characters have aged, and the plot - well, the plot did not thicken. When dating in our younger years, we're fuelled with a sense of adventure, passion, and willingness to take risks. But as we get older, we realize that adulthood responsibilities outweigh the risks. Suddenly we have bills to pay, cats to feed, and houses to save up for. 

But hey, dating in your 30s does come with a whole lotta advantages too. After all, with age comes wisdom and the same applies to dating. When we dive into the dating pool after our 30s, we become more picky and selective about who we want to let into our lives. And that, friends, is the true definition of self-worth. 

When we dated in our 20s, we had to do a lot of risk-taking in order to swift through the f8ckboys. But now that we're wiser, we know better. We know what to look out for and what to avoid. With that being said, we present to you a Reddit thread with 24 hard truths about dating after 30.
