Is it worth trying to date as a mid-30s M if you have basically zero disposable income?
I bought a house last year which has wiped out the monthly spending money I have, and my employer is giving very little in the way of salary increase opportunities. Bill increases have already overtaken this year's minimal raise. I have children from a previous marriage as well.
Is it even worth putting myself out there on apps if I have to disclaim that 'times are tight'? I can't go out for meals, I can't go on holidays, I can't spend my money on fun stuff for a long time. Is there any point in me trying? Or should I just wait until I have money to spend on that fun first part of a relationship?
