I’m a 54-year-old man, recently separated from my wife of 31 years - just earlier this month. Honestly, I’m already feeling bored and lonely, so I’ve been considering trying out dating apps (I’ve never used one before). However, my sons (30 and 28) tell me it’s a waste of time and possibly even a scam, and I’ve seen similar opinions online. So I’m not sure what to think.

    Yeah. they’re horrible. Find your local library, they have tons of things going on, usually. Probably have something you might find interesting involving others.

    Otherwise, there’s plenty of other 3rd spaces, like community centers, or things more directly dedicated to your interests.
