hello, please can I ask if this site is just for young people or older people too? If I ever pluck up the courage to chat to someone I would prefer it to be with someone of a similar age, sorry if that is ageist it's not meant to offend anyone :(

Although it may seem like this site is overrun by younger listeners there are plenty of older listeners around here too! People of all ages are welcome here.

As a younger listener I competely apreciate that older guests and members may want to talk to someone closer to their age and I'm happy to help them find someone if they need!

I hope you find you're able to chat to someone soon :)

I am 32, not terribly young or terribly old (though it doesn't feel so at times). I get the desire to talk to someone your own age or older. You want to talk to someone who is more likely to have the life experience to help you sift through your problems. The up side to talking to someone younger is there though for those who want to vent but don't want advice. Younger people can be incredibly compassionate.

I'm 40 and it is difficult to find listeners of a mature age but it is possible. I wish 7cups would add a searchable age range when browsing listeners. Eg. 18-25, 26-35, 36-45, 46+

That would be great if they did that, I think I would have more confidence to contact a listener if I knew I was talking to someone of a similar age.

Hi there. I expect that it is rather relevant to advertise that I fall into the age bracket that you mention. If you have no luck with teeing up a listen via Browse Listeners, I am happy to listen :)

Hi. I support this idea too. I think it would be more helpful to have more age groups because people of the same age relate better? And it would make 7 cups more specialized!
