Women of Australia, I need help. 46M here. I have tried dating apps and tried social groups. Do women in their 40’s-60’s still date single fathers nowadays or is no kids preferred?

Brisbane and Gold Coast area. I am not sure if it is the geographical location I am in or if it is all over Australia. What has happened to the dating scene ? Online is tough as I don’t even know if the person is real and online dating is good if you can meet early and see if you click, but no one seems to want to meet (in public of course).

I am at an age where I can get back out there and socialise now and go out during the day or night, but everyone honestly seems so busy. Parent life and work make it so hard.

I am male obviously and I was wondering how the women of Australia manage dating around work and kids and or just kids or just work etc.

I have been trying to get back out there since my kids have become older and it just seems so wildly different now to 20-25 years ago.
