When you were younger, you probably took it for granted that you would be able to go out to a bar, nightclub, or some community event and meet someone—especially if you are in your teens or early 20s. After all, you’re young and you’ve plenty of viable options for dating partners. However, when you look at the sad statistics that one out of four marriages where the couple is over 50 years old will end in a divorce and you’re faced with the reality of having to date again… It takes some getting used to.
It’s understandable that once the ink is dried on your divorce decree, your friends are going to want to take you out and try to help you feel better about your now single status. They may ply you with liquor, tell you how great of a catch you are and bash the ex-spouse for breaking your heart. Be that as it may, for all their good intentions, they cannot tell you how to find a partner, date them, and keep them in your life.
We’ve discovered five steps you can take to find love in your life at this particular stage.
Step 1. Find that Inner Glow – The laws of attraction suggests that you attract someone based on the kind of person we are and where are we in life. So, this means that although you may not be feeling the most lovable at this time, as soon as you start believing that you are, this is when you will find someone who can appreciate you 100%.
Step 2. Rediscover the Art of Flirtation – Flirting is the most effective ways of getting a man’s attention. If you are flirting in real life, all it takes is a smile and making eye contact. If you’re online, show favoritism toward one particular guy. Whatever you do, you want to make sure the intended guy sees your attempts to flirt and reciprocates favorably.
Step 3. Have 3 Date-Worthy Outfits in Your Wardrobe – Sometimes when you’re in a relationship for so long, you lose your sense of style because you get comfortable. However, now that you are dating again, you will want to rediscover that style and be prepared for anything. Make sure you have at least three outfits in your wardrobe that accentuates the assets and make you feel amazing.
Step 4. Date to Date – Too often singles at this stage in life feel like they have to rush to settle down. When you approach dating at this stage in your life as just something fun to do and a way to meet someone new and interesting, you may find that you are more open to the idea of having a companion rather than rushing for life partner. Sometimes, a guy is better off as a friend than a partner anyway.
