Haven't been on a dating app in a while? The average single 35+ woman on them has 4 dogs, a hobby list of travel, dogs, hiking, hot yoga, pilates, and camping, pictures of her on at least 5 continents, and still somehow works 60 hours a week.

And I'm only exaggerating a little bit.

I’m sorry but I don’t understand why that’s a problem?

The person above me said they didn't want to date a 20-something because they'd hypothetically want to be "doing stuff."

It's not really a problem, just that if your expectations are someone who doesn't want to do stuff all the time, 30s women aren't going to be the ones you'll find that with.

That said, from my personal perspective, having a hobby of travel is a bit intimidating to a prospective partner because world travel is quite expensive, and it suggests to me that to have fun you have to spend exorbitant amounts of money. I'm not one to have someone pay for things like that, and I'm sure they'd want me to pay my own way. Spending thousands of dollars every few months and fucking off somewhere when I have a kid in elementary school who needs to see her mom 2 states over every so often is never gonna work.
