Date #9 tomorrow night with the same guy. How the time flies buy. I'm looking forward to it. Enjoyed last Friday at the dueling piano bar in New Haven.
If you are on the fence about whether to date again, or to start at any age, let me tell you--it is fun--if you make it that way. Boomers need to have a positive attitude (of course we do. We've got too much negativity going on in our lives right now! Can't retire when we wanted/planned to. So, why not go to dinner with an adult and have some adult conversation that does not involve: finances, you did this, you did that, kids, finances, ex-mates, kids, finances, kids etc!!!) about the process. If you go on a first meeting (I don't consider this a date) then make the most of it even if you don't "click" with the person. Enjoy the process!!!!

I love the idea of "boomerating"--I have quite a few clients who are getting back in the dating game, and they're experiencing sheer terror. I really like your advice about making the most of the first "meeting," even if you know you haven't found your soul mate. Excellent advice, as always, Lori!! mary kennedy
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the process...and the food! (You know, all I can think of is Reba dating herself on the sitcom as an excuse to get out of the house and away from the kids.)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Mary! I wish I could hold everyone's hand as they sign up for an online dating service to get started!
ReplyDeleteLOL John. Go, Reba! Any excuse to get away from the kids!
