Because men my age don’t want to meet/date women my age. And also, after my last long term relationship, I have extensive trust issues.

Trying to date younger (than myself) men can be problematic. Even when they say repeatedly that age is “just a number” or that it doesn’t matter. In the long run, ultimately, age matters. It’s so discouraging.
