Okay. I got a female friend of mine to sign up for Match.com This Sat. she has her first date! See, kids, it can be done. She's 47 and hasn't dated in years! This means you can do it too. You can boomerate! (Boomer Date!)
I "encouraged" her to go online, worked on her profile with her, and she got a few interests.
This invite is to a nice restaurant! So, now the planning begins. How to look thinner. How to dress to look thinner. What to eat to look as if you always eat that way since you are much thinner than you used to be! lol
By the way, always remember the "that is why the make chocolate AND vanilla ice cream." Not everyone wants thin, blond, brunette, bald, beard or not (well, maybe if you are a woman) etc. My motto is there is someone out there for all of us but like the lotto: You can't win if you don't play!
This is the fun part too. The anticipation. The waiting. The "something to look forward to!"
Go for it.
Send me some emails of your dates good or bad! Send to: datinggurulori@yahoo.com

I signed up for match.com - but definitely need a new pic. However, I keep getting "matched" up with these guys who are my age or older who are looking for someone younger - or who are into their motorcycles and hunting. sigh
ReplyDeleteI'll keep looking.......
You should earn a comission! I will say that Chelsey and I "met" online, though it wasn't a dating service. This was the whole my-girlfriend-has-a-girlfriend-that-you-should-instant-message thing...
ReplyDeleteMitzi! Don't give up. A new pic is probably a good idea. No one wants to meet someone who doesn't look like their picture. I laugh when a guy has a picture of himself with a little boy then in his profile mentions that his son graduated from college! How old is that picture???
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about guys and age, but I disregard that and wink away and email away not caring what they put down for age choice. Most of the time it doesn't matter. Give it a shot after your new picture is up!
