5th miserable first date….Well. I’ve lost count. But do not get discouraged. I changed my photos. I rewrote my profile. I modified my approach. I personally prefer something much more lowkey for a first meeting. My preference is coffee because I personally don’t care for bars. I look at it as meeting someone. My quality of men I’ve met has gone up considerably. Right now I’m seeing a great guy that many ladies would pass over. He’s short, but so am I. He could lose a few pounds, but active enough to play tennis for a couple of hours at a time a few days a week. More important, he values and respects me and we have a wonderful time when ee see each other. It’s still very new, we have only been dating two months. I started telling myself ‘There are many great quality men my age just looking to meet me’…and it worked.

Hi Lisa,
With regards to the phone pal, I just had a chat pal that I met online for people over 50. Almost every night we would chat for hours for 2 weeks. I talked to him once, so I knew he existed. Mentioned to him we should meet for coffee. First the answer was, after Christmas, then it was after New Years. I finally thought I would ask one last time when I received an email saying he was going on his 3rd date with a woman and was going to pursue that and btw it was fun chatting with you. WHAT? Really? I should have known since I received a lot of hesitation, in spite of all the generous compliments mixed in. Lesson learned…again.
