    I married at 25 and was divorced at 34. Then met the absoloute love of my life. We had a baby together when I was 36.

    The time since I met him has been the best and most exciting part of my life. We have been together for around 28 years and I wouldn't change a thing. He is my rock, the person I cling to when life tries to drown me.

    I never expected it, I wasn't looking for it. Having our son was the icing on the cake as I had been told it was extremely unlikely that I would ever become pregnant.

    Things happened fast for me but sometimes you just have to be patient. So just chill out, relax, enjoy your single life, there is nothing more attractive than a woman who is enjoying her life and having fun as an independant woman.

    Our son, who is now 26 is dating a woman in her early 30's she is so lovely and we have no problem with the age gap. They are buying a house together and are very much in love.

    So absoloutley yes you can find love at ANY age :)

    Not me personally, but a close friend of mine's wife left him and their two children when he was 36. Fast forward two years and he is engaged to his soul mate of the same age.
    Love can happen at any age.

    Hell, I hope so!

    ETA: I hope 30s isn't too late to find love, but I do NOT want a spouse

    Good to know. I divorced at 37. Approaching 40 and no prospects. Perhaps I will never find anyone

    That’s amazing! How old was your wife if I may ask? How did you meet?

    Same. I've kind of already given up.

    Not quite 30, but I met my husband at 29 on eHarmony. We got married when I was 32. Outside of one really religious couple, all my friends married in their 30s. My friend's sister got married at 41 and she just had her first kid at 42 this year.

    I would not worry about your age. Love can happen at any time. :smile:

    Over 60% of divorces happen between 30 and 39. There’s still hope.

    This post made me cringe a bit because it puts the wrong flow out. If marriage or coupling is what you want then put yourself out there and don’t focus on age. 30 isn’t the geriatric wing

    There's more going on in the geriatric wings than you might imagine. People's bodies age but their feelings don't. I know people who got together in their 80s and 90s who are happy as can be. I met my hubby at 29 at a hardware store (he was 35). 24 years now.

    Not my intention! I was just looking for solidarity.

    I found the love of my life, or rather, he found me, in my mid-40's. 💟
