Senior singles and tips for successful dating.

Posted by Patrick Woolmer on Fri 27th April 2007 at 05:00 AM, Filed in Tips For Dating

Starting back in the dating as a senior can be as exciting or as daunting as you like. Often it’s the latter and understandably. You may have had a traumatic divorce, lost someone or generally not been tied down for some years.

So what advice can I give you to provide you the best chance of success?


• Use the wisdom you have developed and be very casual about dating in the early stages. No doubt you have hobbies and interests, and finding a partner willing to try something new isn’t that hard. Even if it’s a lazy afternoon golfing, a outdoors concert of music you both enjoy, or a relaxed picnic in a hideaway you know. Stay clear of long formal dates in the early days such as dinners and family reunions.

• With time on your hands (if retired) try something new, join a salsa club, running club, golf course, or something you’ve always wanted to do but never had the time. As soon as you find something you are comfortable doing you will instantly become more attractive.

Whilst times may have changed, people certainly haven’t, especially from your generation. If anything they have chilled out some what! Lose the anxiety and remember that you are mixing with people that have been there and done it already so almost always nothing is new apart from emotions.
