Step #1 Stop Making Excuses about the Reasons You’re Not Dating over 50!

Do you tell yourself and everyone around you that as a woman over 50, NOW just isn’t a good time in your life to date? If so, you’re likely to be alone for a long time. Just like you schedule important meetings for work, you want to schedule your dating life as well. Start by finding about 20-30 minutes a day to spend either online or in the real world meeting men.

 

Step #2 Decide Why You’re Dating!

Would you like a male friend you could take to an event or to a movie or dinner from time to time so you don’t have to go by yourself?  Or do you desire a husband to share your life with?  You need to know why you’re dating so you know what type of man and relationship you are looking for.

 

Step #3 Be Realistic About Men 

Are you looking for the cutest and coolest guy out there to be your boyfriend just like you did in high school?  We’ve all aged, so cute is probably not the same as it was back then. But, a man can turn cute in your eyes literally overnight as you bond with him. So give Average Joe a chance when you can. He is more likely to make a better boyfriend than Mr. Hottie will any day.

Step #4 Be Visible in the World So Men Can Find You

Do you stay at home every night with your cat watching TV?  If so you aren’t going to meet a lot of men. Sadly, they don’t just fall out of the sky onto your doorstep-although it would be nice if they did. So get out there now and look for activities in your area or check out dating sites that involve the type of men you’d be interested in.

 

Step #5 Flirt and Have Fun!

It’s probably been a long time since you’ve flirted so it may take some practice on your part to do it well again. Start by smiling at every man you see. Most will smile back at you. Both online and during dates, be playful. Use the type of conversation and flirty behavior you’d use at a cocktail party.

 

Step #6 Commit to Going After Your Dream Man

Dating can get hard.  When you find yourself rejected by a guy you really like or you feel you’ve seen every man there is to see online, you may want to quit.  Don’t!  Keep at it and do what it takes to find your Mr. Right.

 

Step #7 Get Dating Help and Support When You Need It

Women quit dating and miss out on meeting the man they are meant to be with because they just don’t have the skills and techniques to deal with the dating challenges that come up. When you think about it, we weren’t taught how to date back in our youth.

In fact, most of us just sort of fell into relationships and ended up marrying that high school or college sweetheart. Don’t be embarrassed about getting help if you are struggling in the dating arena. Look for dating programs or dating coaches and get the tools and skills that will make your dating journey so much easier for you.
