Is 20 too young for online dating

"Brainiac sites like Ok Cupid, which tend toward math-based equations to find you romance, are good choices for people who think they fall outside the norm to some degree and want a geek who might get lost in the cracks of a bigger site," Masini says.

Ok Cupid isn't the best choice for people who are looking to get into a long-term relationship; the vast majority of users are under 30 and not necessarily looking for anything serious.

Some forums can only be seen by registered members. Take your age and cut it in half, then add 7, and that would be your lowest acceptable dating age. It's pretty disgusting, so you have to be careful when dating girls who are older than about 25 because then they start getting all serious on you and that just saps the fun out of the whole thing.

I’ve noticed after my last birthday (I turned 54 in June) that the response I get on has dropped to almost nothing.

It’s as though moving from the early 50s to the mid 50s is some kind of death-knell for a dating life.

Best for Dating Around: Volume sites like are perfect for women who are interested in expanding their social circles and dating around. It's sprawling, super established, and like a massive department store, it's got a department for everyone: millennials, seniors, single parents, people looking for fun, and those looking for something more serious like marriage," Masini says.

Every day, the site sends users six matches based on compatibility, but it leaves much of the matching up to the user.
