Mum-of-two Anita Naik has been an agony aunt for 30 years
I meet awful men on dating apps Q I’m 50, divorced, and would like to meet someone but dating apps just pair me with men who either expect sex right away or are just awful and rude. One man I chatted to (aged 59) told me women like me should be grateful for attention, which hurt. Others send naked pictures. What do I do? A You’ve had lousy luck dating, but that doesn’t mean you should give up. The problem with apps is they make people think they can say and do anything they want. In life, 99% of them would behave better. Take a break from apps and try to meet someone by harnessing your interests, join clubs, put yourself in situations where you meet more people and tell your friends you’re looking.
