Of course it's changed. Be insane if it didn't. I find as I age, my list gets more restrictive, not more open. I used to be very open with dating, willing to try lots of different kinds of people, money didn't matter, age didn't matter, education didn't matter, type of sexuality (in kink. I was open to tops, switches, bottoms etc), class didn't matter, ethnicity didn't matter, if they drank or smoked pot didn't matter... I was open to all kinds of non-monogamy. Distance didn't matter. Lived with people, lived in communal houses of genderqueer community, alternative community, punk rock, musicians etc. Got married. Had triad relationships.
So, no, actually it's different for me. I find I'm a HELL of a lot more restrictive.
But then I seem to be living my life backwards to most people. I find most people as they get older realise they want more freedom and want to start traveling etc.
I've done all that. I've experimented with being a top, a domme, a bottom, a switch, lived in several different countries, dated men, women, transmasculines, genderqueer, bigenderded. Had four different careers, been to school three times.
So, no. I find my life is now becoming more focused. I know what I can and cannot do. So my dating list has become far more strict and narrow. I know what works and what doesn't. I know what matters and what doesn't. I know what things make me sick (mentally broken down, fatigued, depressed) and what things are mentally healthy for me.
