👩🏼‍💻 Dating After Divorce? How to Stand Out on the Apps…

Dear Sarah,

I’m recently divorced and dipping my toes back into dating. It’s been a long time, to say the least. Online dating feels like a different universe than the last time I was single and I’m totally overwhelmed.

How do I make my profile stand out on these apps? I don’t want to play any games, I don’t want anyone just looking for a hookup.

Any tips on how to spot red flags before wasting time on bad matches?

Signed,

Hopeful but Hesitant
