Biggest hurdle? My husband.

Joking! Really, I never dated when young, just hung out in groups, right? And there would be hookups and then eventually that leads to some relationships. So I never got the hang of the one-on-one dates.

Even after my big breakup with my ex, didn't really date because while I intended to, my now husband had other ideas, he had been dating for some years and said he knew when we met what he wanted so it got serious pretty fast.

But as you say it's hard to meet people - I understand that, I don't know how young people find people if they aren't running around in packs like we used to. That network of people who know you, and also know other people, and might introduce you if they think you'd like each other. Dating apps are more like job searching.
