Looking forward to getting back on dating apps at 38

Look, I did it at 47. Take the time to make a good profile, ask for help on pics and be an authentic you. It’s a mess out there, for those that never try.

ask for help on pics

I would like to second this point, especially if you're not practiced at taking selfies. I've seen some fine looking men IRL whose profile pictures looked like potato.

It doesn't have to be this way. People like to help, and most would be happy to see you meet someone special. Might as well ask.

Thirded. People like to think that their match will be deep enough to look past something superficial like a bad photo, but that's not how most of us work. People see a decent photo and then check the rest.

You don't have to be a model or movie star. Good lighting. Clothes that fit. A background that's not, like, a dingy bathroom or your car.
