Search Results: dating an older man

29F, I’ve been on and off the dating apps for years. I’m under the impression that I want a relationship as I install apps on and off. I’m at the point where I get drained when they’re installed & when I’m not in the mood to reply to messages or swipe on profiles, I end up actually using it every other day or every couple of days. When I’m at the point where I notice I’m not getting as many matches or likes after a couple of months, that’s when I delete & likely going on hiatus. I think deep down I must want something other than validation right? I like men but I haven’t been in a ltr yet, I saw someone for a few months in my early twenties & haven’t seen someone since bc I refuse to settle. I get interest from guys but it only seems to be on dating apps which I take with a grain of salt, I’m told I’m cute/attractive but never get noticed by guys I like in person (as in actually approached). I’m always told I haven’t found the right person & this may hold truth, I’m reserved & not affectionate/don’t have a sex drive really but feel like that could possibly change if I meet someone. I just worry I’ll feel regret as I’m getting old & still haven’t been in a ltr, I don’t want kids but open to marriage

Especially after having several bad experiences with them?

PORTLAND, Maine – Jeffrey Buchannan, a 36-year-old man from Massachusetts, has been sentenced to 40 years in prison for the brutal murder of his girlfriend, Rhonda Pattelena, on a beach in Maine. Buchannan pleaded guilty to one count of murder earlier this month, avoiding a trial and securing an agreement with prosecutors that capped his sentence at 43 years. The judge, abiding by the terms of the agreement, handed down a 40-year sentence on Wednesday.

The killing took place on March 26, 2021, publicly acknowledged as a daytime attack. Buchannan and Pattelena, who was the mother of Buchannan’s toddler son at the time, had a troubled history and had been dating on and off for seven years. In 2017, Buchannan was convicted of felony kidnapping and assaulting Pattelena and her two older sons. However, at the time of the murder, many friends and family members were unaware that the couple had reconciled.

During the sentencing hearing, the court was shown the rock used by Buchannan to beat Pattelena to death, while prosecutors detailed the injuries she suffered.

According to witnesses, surveillance footage, and court records, Buchannan attacked Pattelena while she was in the process of sending a Snapchat video to a friend. Multiple cameras captured parts of the attack, including Buchannan repeatedly striking the victim. After the murder, Buchannan was seen walking away from the crime scene and attempting to hide the victim’s body.

With the judge’s sentencing, Buchannan will spend the next four decades behind bars for the murder of Rhonda Pattelena, a woman loved and cherished by many.
