Here are steps to dating success in your 60’s and senior years, and, well, ALL ages!
It can be said that life is all about meeting new people and sharing new experiences. As the senior years descend, let’s face it. Things can get lonely. Sometimes, people end up alone because they don’t take the time or the initiative to talk to others.
The good news is this: it’s not too late to start over again for singles – whether you are widowed, divorced, or never yet married. Today is a new day! Your sixties and up can be especially sweet if you have the right person beside you.
Dating, long term relationships, companionship, or new friendships can be a challenge to find, especially if you have been “out of the loop” for some time. Here is some expert advice from Chrissy Bellofatto, a matchmaker for many years and owner of Perfect Partners with offices in Bethlehem, PA, and Denville, NJ.
- Be open to meeting new people with the attitude of having fun! Whether you think you will enjoy yourself or think you will not, you are probably correct. Your attitude has a lot to do with the results.
- Be open minded about people. He/she may not be Mr./Mrs. Right for you, but may very well turn out to be a good friend and companion.
- Don’t sweat the small stuff. We all have different quirks. That’s what makes it interesting.
- Smile! It brightens your face as well as the atmosphere. It may even make your eyes twinkle.
- Show interest in the other person. Ask open-ended questions that cannot be answered with a simple “yes” or “no”. And save the highly personal, sensitive and depressing topics for later.
- Dress in something nice that makes you feel good about yourself. Comfort is great, but, guys, show your date she is worth the effort of dressing up for.
