Katreen Hardt says the dating app isn’t just for millennials.
Swiping my way through pictures on my phone, I pause at one. It’s of a man with kind eyes and a cheerful smile. I swipe right and to my delight, we’re a match.

At 51, I’m not interested in all that. In my experience, it’s best to be direct.
Throughout my 20s and 30s I had a couple of serious relationships. Back then you met people at work, on nights out or through mutual friends. I was with one man for three years and we had a house together and a happy life, but in 2012, we began drifting apart and decided to split.
