5 Steps I Followed To Find Love After 50
You can read the blog below or watch it on YouTube by clicking here.
Back in your teens or early 20’s, you probably didn’t date all that much.
Chances are, you hung out together, playing, talking and really getting to know each other before you fell in love and chose to marry.
Fast forward to today where 1 out of 4 over 50’s marriages is ending in divorce.
The judge bangs the gavel declaring you officially divorced, and your friends want to make you feel better by telling you what a great catch you are and that it won’t be long before another man comes into your life.
What they can’t do is tell you exactly how to attract, date and keep a man at this time in your life.
And that’s why I’d like to share these 5 steps I followed to find love in my own life after 50.
Whether you’re a newbie at dating or you just need a push to get you out of a dating rut, I know these 5 steps can help you too!
Step 1 – Rediscover Your Inner Glow
The Law of Attraction states that we can only attract someone based on who we are and where we are right now in our life.
In dating, this means you’ll attract a man who will love you only as much as you love yourself.
Sometimes we don’t feel so lovable anymore.
That’s why it’s important to take the time to get back in touch with how incredible you are . . . And YES you are even as a woman in her 50’s, 60’s and 70’s!!!!!
You can do this by finding your inner glow.
It’s there and you can start to find it by making a list of all the things you love in these 4 areas of your life.
- Your body
- Your personality
- What you love to do or what are you interested in
- And last but not least, your greatest passion in life.
I think you’ll be pretty amazed at how special you really are once you do this exercise.
Step 2 – Rediscover the Art of Flirting
Whether you are meeting men online or in the real world, flirting is the best way to get a man’s attention.
Online, you can flirt by favoring men.
In real life, smile and make eye contact for at least 5 seconds.
If you’re on a date, lightly touch his arm.
These are all signals that let a man know you’re interested in him.
Step 3 – Have 3 “Go To” Dating Outfits In Your Closet that you LOVE
When I first started dating, I had absolutely no sense of style.
I’d go rummaging through my closet minutes before I had to leave looking for ‘the perfect outfit’.
Nothing felt right because everything in my closet consisted of jeans and black t-shirts or tops.
Over time, with help, I developed a sense of style and I bought clothes that brought out my feminine side and made me feel good and look good.
I created 3 dating outfits that reflected the inner glow I was feeling inside – I could put together in a moment’s notice when I had a date.
Now it’s your turn….you’ll want to create 3 outfits you love to wear.
Check out your closet and see what you love then head to the store and fill in the missing pieces with clothes that make you feel amazing.
Because when you feel amazing, you glow . . . and men are very drawn to a woman who feels confident in who she is.
Step 4 – Date To Date
A man may not be your next mate, but he can be a great date.
He could even turn out to be a great friend who might be perfect for that wedding or party you don’t want to attend alone.
Or he can be fun male companionship on a Saturday night where he buys the tickets and you pick up the popcorn.
Go on dates to have fun meeting someone new and interesting.
Then decide how a man can fit into your life whether he’s going to be a friend, a date or a potential mate.
Step 5 – Use The 4 Magic Words Men Love To Hear
Ever see men stepping over themselves to help a woman?
The reason is she knows how to make a man feel both important and needed.
When you do this, men want nothing more than to make you happy.
To make this happen in your life, consider using these 4 magic words, “I need your help,” then watch how this changes your life with men.
Just be sure to thank and appreciate all he does for you.
Now for some inspiration that you too can find love with a good man after 50 . . .
Lisa – just wanted to let you know, I am really having a good time online. There are so many nice men out there! I am going out of town next week but when I return I have coffee plans with 5 men and I am walking tomorrow with the fellow I met at the coffee shop. Met another guy tonight and we are having so much fun bantering. I feel so, so lucky. Thanks for all the guidance and encouragement – I’d be so lost without your training and advice! P.S. Found my guy and we are so happy! Thank you Lisa. Debbie, California

May I add something here? It works for both men & women, but since you’re writing from the female perspective, we’ll stick with that. Jot down somewhere, a dozen (more or Less), qualities/traits you will NOT tolerate under any circumstance. He can be the most amazing lover, but if he’s shows a trait you will not tolerate, you must move on. It can be major, or minor. Sometimes it’s the petty stuff that drives you nuts. On the other hand, make another list of a dozen or so traits that makes him a keeper. Last make one final list of traits that you can put up with, assuming there’s enough good points that you can overlook some faults. Remember you have your ideosincrasies too. In regards to the list of bad points, ask yourself do you find yourself constantly meeting/dating them? I recently had a discussion with a few women of Facebook, and each one said they would rather be single then put up with an unhappy relationship. I would too.
We have a tendency to date the same person over and over again without realizing it. And people that are different who might be a better fit for us, we have a tendency to ignore them. The question is what constitutes a bad relationship based on your comment Jack.
