7 Essential Dating Tips For Women Over 40

Dating in your teens and dating when you’re over 40 is a whole different kettle of fish. While you might be feeling rusty (if you’ve been out of the game for a long time), you do have one very strong point in your favor – You know what you want out of a relationship or date.

Still, most single women over 40 complain about not being able to find Mr. Right. It doesn’t matter what situation you might currently be in. The fact is your Mr. Right is out there somewhere and following the tips below will increase your chances of finding him or being found by him.

1. Attend Family and School Reunions

It’ll amaze you how some of your high school buddies have changed over the years. A reunion is a place to meet someone you share something in common with. Past memories or events are an excellent springboard for a conversation and maybe a date if he tickles your fancy.

2. Join Local Charity Organizations

Every city in the Western world has charities that need volunteers to help them with their mission. Don’t you think someone (who is single) who shares your passions will be more willing to an invitation on a date?

3. Ask People You Know

A great man once said “Ask and it’ll be given to you.” So don’t feel shy asking your family and close friends that you’re back in the dating game and welcome their recommendations. The truth is people who know you will love to see you happy and will take great joy in introducing you to potential dates.

4. Join an Online Dating Service

Believe it or not but countless stories abound of couple who met, fell in love and are still together. There are also niche dating websites that cater specifically for over 40s.

5. Take an Activity Class

Have you ever wanted to learn how to dance Salsa or become proficient at digital photography? Then joining a class in your town will expose you to other like minded and interesting singles.

6 Go to Corporate Events

Perhaps you own a business and keep putting of joining your local chamber of commerce. Well, the people you’ll meet at these events will have a good understanding of your lifestyle and appreciate your drive. Plus, even if you don’t find someone you fancy, you can always ask them to introduce you to someone in their circle of influence who’s single.

7. Have a Regular Habit of Going Out

This could be to your local coffee shop, library or shopping mall. The point is that if you’re not out and about, how can you find potential fun and interesting single men? So get off your blessed assurance and start mingling.

In a world containing at least 2 billion men, I believe there’s someone out there who’ll make a great match for you. You only have to seek and keep seeking and very soon you’ll find them…or they’ll find you.
