5 Must Know Secrets for Jumpstarting Your Dating Life After 50
Secret #1 Begin by making your own happiness a priority!
What does your happiness have to do with dating?
When you’re happy, you glow.
And when you’re happy you can attract a man who is happy in his life.
Remember you can only attract from your own mindset.
If you’re miserable being single, you’re more likely to attract needy men or scammers.
So how do you start feeling happy even when you’re feeling lonely?
Get your inner mojo fired up by finding things to do on a daily basis that make you happy.
This can be as simple as buying a new book you’ve wanted to read, or taking a bubble bath and watching a movie on TV with your favorite takeout food.
When you do things like this for yourself, get in touch with the feeling in your body that happens when you feel happy.
Secret #2 Create a Single Girlfriends List
When my 24 year marriage ended, I wasn’t ready to date.
I recognized I needed some time to heal.
Yet I didn’t want to spend every Friday and Saturday night alone with my dog and the TV.
So I began asking friends if they knew other single women that might be interested in going to dinner or a movie sometime.
This was one of the best things I ever did.
Not only did I have fun on the weekends, but when I began dating, I had amazing support from my new friends who understood what it felt like to be single and dating again.
This week, think of all the single women you know.
Ask friends about single women they know too, and then create a Single Girlfriends List.
When you want to do an activity and don’t have a date, call these friends and do something fun together!
Secret #3 Accept yourself where you are today versus competing against an earlier version of you
I know how hard it can be to look in the mirror and see the 50+ version of you.
You start judging yourself, wondering what man is going to love a woman this age.
To set the record straight…you’re not old!
Today, 60 is the new 40!
But you feel old because you’re comparing yourself to how you looked at 20.
Men don’t do this when they look at you.
Their only point of reference is what you look like right now.
And many men will love how you look today.
Attracting a good man starts with loving you first.
Find 10 good things you love about you and use this list to start reminding yourself about how awesome you really are every day!
Secret #4 Learn from your past mistakes.
When I work with clients, we take a look at the men they’ve attracted into their life in the past.
Doing this exercise gives these women huge Aha moments about their dating patterns.
They begin to see they’ve been unsuccessfully dating the same type of man over and over again without realizing it.
Using the patterns they discover, we create a Red Flag List.
This is a list that helps my clients see they are once again attracted to the same type of man and if they go there again, chances are, it’s going to end the same way the last one did.
The reason you’re attracted to the same man over and over again is because he feels comfortable to you.
It doesn’t mean he’s good for you.
Take a look at the men you’ve dated in the past and see how many of them are really the same guy with the same issues just in different clothes.
Secret #5 Do what it takes to make your dream of finding Mr. Right come true!
Do you remember the last time you looked for a place to live?
Think about your mindset and the time you committed to interviewing realtors, checking out houses or apartments and even looking online at Zillow so you could find the right place.
Dating is like this too. It requires a full commitment to doing what it takes to Find Mr. Right.
You want to be working on your dating goals everyday, whether it’s favoring men on a dating site, flirting with men in the real world, or meeting men for coffee or a drink.
Unfortunately, men don’t fall out of the sky (even though it would be so much easier if they did).
Since they don’t, it’s going to require some effort on your part to make your dream come true.
If you’re not sure how to make this happen, I’d love to be your coach and help you go from single and alone to having fun dating and attracting the man of your dreams.
Dating doesn’t have to be as hard as you might be making it.
