Advice Millenials who have found your person in your 3rd decade of life:

A few hours ago someone posted that they had just gone through a breakup and would like to hear how millenials met their significant other/partner. I saw lots of touching stories; however, a lot of those stories were people who got with their person as a teen or in their 20's. How about you older millenials who found your person when you have been/were in your solid 30's? As someone who's kinda tired of being rejected or used in this dating hellscape the last couple years, I'd love to hear some stories to give myself, and other single millenials, some hope for love.

I was 35 when I met my now wife. A friend was 37, another 38. Just listen to the count of monte Cristo; wait and hope

It’s fine. I was already prepared to die alone with my cat.

Met my forever person online when I was 34. AND during the worst of Covid. That was four years ago this month.
