Are you making these 3 Dating Mistakes Trying To Find Love after 50?
At the age of 45, I found myself single for the first time since my teens.
I started dating but truthfully, I had no clue what I was doing!!!!
I ended up making huge mistakes that shook my confidence and led me to a doomed 2nd marriage with the wrong man that lasted exactly two years.
Back then I thought I was the only one suffering when it came to dating.
Today, as a dating coach, I help women every day overcome these mistakes so they are able to find the perfect man for them.
That’s why I want to share three dating mistakes that that can doom your love life if not corrected ASAP.
Mistake #1 . . . You believe ‘he’s out there’ and when the time is right, ‘he’ll show up’
This is a belief based on the Law of Attraction that goes like this . . . if I focus on it hard enough, it will happen.
Hey, I’m a huge believer in manifesting what you want but I know the only way it really works is when you take ACTION to make your dream come true.
If you just hang out waiting for your guy to show up, you could end up alone for the rest of your life.
Your Action Step for finding the perfect man for you is to create a Dating Blueprint.
Start with Online dating.
You want to craft a good profile with pictures that show off the best you.
Browse dating sites to see which ones have the types of men you’d like to meet.
Then join the ones that you think will work for you.
Next, make a list of at least 10 places in your area you think single men our age hang out.
Get your flirting skills in place and go meet them.
Lastly, write out a list of people you know from business, activities you participate in, classes you take, people you work with plus friends and family.
These are your Dating Fairy Godmothers, the angels who can fix you up with other single people they know.
It takes work to get what you want in life but if you’re persistent and consistent at working your Dating Blueprint, you can meet a lot of good men.
Mistake #2 . . . You must feel the spark right away
The “Spark” is how I used to judge whether or not a man was right for me.
Then one day, I had a date with a man who was nice but I felt absolutely no spark.
He kept pursuing me and because he was nice, I kept giving him a chance.
Well, something happened on that 4th date.
He reached across the table and touched my face and that set off the big bang between us.
Turns out we had what I call slow-burning chemistry.
It’s actually the best to have because you have the opportunity to get to know each other.
I’ve seen lots of relationships fail even though a couple had an immediate attraction and great chemistry because the relationship was so focused on this connection that the friendship aspect was missing.
If a guy is nice, keep going out.
One day, he could reach across the table and tenderly touch your face in a way that causes the sparks to fly for you.
Mistake #3 . . . Dating to Mate on a 1st Date
When I first started dating I, too, was guilty of trying to figure out if he was the one before my cup of tea was even finished.
Here’s the problem with this strategy . . . meet and greets are awkward.
I always urge my clients to go on dates for the sole purpose of meeting someone new and interesting.
It takes a ton of pressure off of you by not having to figure it all out in 30 minutes or less.
Keep in mind, the only purpose of a meet and greet is to see if you want to go on a second date. That’s it.
It’s worth giving a good guy a chance cause you never know, he could turn out to be the one and you don’t want to miss that do you?
Now here’s something fun when you’re trying to figure out if a guy is right for you.
My friend and colleague, Carol Allen does these cool Right Man Reports.
With this report, you’ll find out how compatible you are, why you feel the way you do when you are together, and if your relationship would be a positive, fulfilling one in the future. It’s a no brainer at only $19.97.
