Most people over 30 already know this. We keep ourselves busy in order to distract us from thinking about our futures as spinsters.

Basically, it's one more article to instill a false sense of optimism when the men our age are hitting up 20-something hotties and leaving us 30-something women to troll AARP meetings.

To think of the whole dating thing as a game or a prey/predator thing is wrong to start with.
Just being oneself and loving oneself first is a better way to find a partner.
