Not sure where to even start. Considering dating after being in a relationship for 15 years.

39M and based in the UK. Having come out of a 15 year relationship, I’ve started to consider the idea of dating again. However, I genuinely have no idea where to even start? Dating apps weren’t even a thing before I was with my now ex.

Can anyone share previous experiences and/or advice on where to even start? Should dating apps be the number one option these days? If so, which ones are good to consider, considering I’m UK based too if that makes a difference in terms of apps?

Singles night events? Do people do these? Are they are a reasonable option to consider?

Any help would be hugely appreciated.

Thanks
