Met my person at 38 after giving up on dating apps
Zara Ahmed · September 5, 2025
I deleted every dating app in January, joined a pottery class, and met the most incredible man at a friend's dinner party in March. We've been inseparable since. I know "stop looking and you'll find it" is annoying advice, but for me it was literally true. Sometimes you just need to live your life and trust the timing. To my 35+ crowd — your person is out there.
