40 and over
Forty and up: experience, patience, and no interest in playing games that aren't the agreed kind.
Tribes are new: the first people to add this get found first by everyone who joins after.
A lot of people find the scene, or come back to it, after forty: after a marriage, after the kids leave, after years of knowing and not saying. They arrive with something younger members often don't have yet: a clear sense of what they want, patience, and no interest in drama that isn't negotiated.
On a card, "40 and over" is a filter both ways: for people who want a partner with that experience, and for people over forty who'd rather not be the oldest person in someone's inbox. Age-gap dynamics are their own thing (and have their own page here); this is simply the tag for people who are forty or more.
What people over forty say they look for: discretion (careers and families make it matter more), people who keep their word, and spaces that aren't a nightclub. Munches, workshops and smaller house events suit that, and the city pages say which are which.
