Dating at Midlife/Expert Profile
Expertise
My answers are to women only! The truth is, Women are from Venus, Men are from Mars! A woman will not get the same answer from a man as she will from another woman. Life is totally different for the "Baby Boomers" of today and dating is not what it was 30 years ago.
Experience in the area
Being a woman over 50 and facing a new life challenge of being single and dating for the first time in over 36 years was an eye-opening experience! I made it a "Quest" to research, "Dating"! After interviewing hundreds of both men and women in the "New Age of Dating" after 50, I have complied my study data into a systemized plan of "Finding Mr. Right". If you're over 50 and dating---I have the answers to your questions. I promise, my plan will help you make better choices in the men you date and eventually find Mr. Right.
