There’s still hope for those dating over 50

D ating over 50 may seem such a daunting prospect, especially if one comes into it from a divorce or equally traumatic long term end to a relationship. Add to that, one doesn’t possess the same level of enthusiasm and vigour for dating at that age compared to the younger days. So it is perfectly understandable that people in this age range meet dating with more than a sceptical eye. Yet there is not so much different in dating when you’re in your prime compared to dating over 50 insofar as the fundamentals are concerned. There are still hordes of singles in their 50’s looking to be paired up, just like there are in the younger generation, with the only difference being that those singles over 50 are less open to the prospect of meeting a new partner at that age than are singles in their twenties, thirties and forties. Furthermore dating over 50 presents the same levels of anxieties regarding meeting someone new as does dating at any other age, as such there is just as likelihood of finding a mate over 50 as any other age. All that’s required is focusing on dating methods that zone in on one’s personal needs when dating over 50, which is not too dissimilar to those dating when younger if they’re serious about meeting the right partner. Age is thus less of a factor when dating over 50 than is the willingness of the singleton over 50 to put themselves out there in order to attract suitable prospective partners.
