First time writing a story in this sub, please be gentle (that’s what *I* said).
This happened about six months ago, I was still 30 at the time. I was fairly recently divorced (the divorce was final about 6 months prior to this experience) and just looking to take my mind off of things and kind of assess if I was ready to get back into dating or not. Like any normal-thinking gentleman, I turned to Tinder.
Having not used Tinder before, I wasn’t sure what to put in my bio, so I just wrote something dumb like: “Seeking a long, fulfilling relationship with the woman of my dreams. Or casual sex. Whichever comes first.” I put up some decent photos and set my filters for women around 30-45 within a few miles of my home town.
I should preface this by saying I’m not a model by any means. I have a slender build, but I am 6’3″, which in the world of Tinder gets you bonus points for some reason. I would say I’m very slightly above average in terms of looks, but I try to keep myself active and in shape. Anyway, the matches weren’t coming in all at once. A couple here and there, but nothing that really fit my interests. That is, until I matched with Susan.
