Dating Over 50: A Cheat Sheet

 


Hi there!

Here we are in the Golden Years diving into dating with the zest of a teenager (sometimes with the same awkwardness ). Whether you're freshly single or have been wading in the dating pool for a while, navigating the waters after 50 can be intimidating. Fear not, though! These questions from my most recent YouTube video will help you keep the conversation going so you can move on to a second date and beyond! 

When dating a woman aged 60 and above, it's important to ask thoughtful and respectful questions that show genuine interest in her experiences and values. Here are some questions a man might consider:

Personal Interests and Hobbies

1. What are some of your favorite hobbies or activities?

2. Have you picked up any new interests or skills recently?

3. Do you enjoy traveling? If so, what's the best place you've visited?

Life Experiences

4. Can you tell me about a memorable experience from your past?

5. What is one thing you’re most proud of in your life?

6. What’s a piece of advice you would give to your younger self? 

Family and Friends

7. Do you have children or grandchildren? Tell me about them.

8. How do you like to spend time with your family?

9. Do you have a close-knit group of friends? What do you enjoy doing together?

 Values and Beliefs

10. What values are most important to you in a relationship?

11. Are there any causes or issues you are particularly passionate about?

12. Do you have any spiritual or religious beliefs that are important to you? 

Lifestyle and Preferences

13. What does a perfect weekend look like for you?

14. Do you enjoy cooking or dining out? What's your favorite cuisine?

15. Are you a morning person or a night owl?

Health and Wellness

16. How do you like to stay active and healthy?

17. Do you have any favorite ways to relax and unwind?

18. Is there a particular health or wellness practice you swear by? 

Books, Movies, and Music

19. What’s the last book you read that you really enjoyed?

20. Do you have a favorite movie or genre?

21. What kind of music do you enjoy listening to?

 Companionship and Relationship

22. What qualities do you appreciate most in a partner?

23. How do you like to spend your free time with someone special?

24. What does companionship mean to you at this stage in life?

 Future Aspirations

25. Do you have any goals or dreams you’re still hoping to achieve?

26. Is there a place you’ve always wanted to visit but haven’t yet?

27. What are you looking forward to in the next few years?

These questions can help foster a meaningful and engaging conversation, allowing both parties to learn more about each other and build a connection based on mutual interests and values.

I hope you find the partner of your dreams!

Coming out of the Closet

I'm really struggling with my writing, like I never have before.        I'm terrified of talking about my faith ----  and yet it's everything to me.          How do you get people to understand how big  and how un-be-lieve-able-ly  it changes everything in life?       How do you get people to understand how,  if they just pay a little  attention they will quickly see that every moment in each of our lives is uniquely designed in a most wonder-filled way?         How do you write about that without sounding trite?          I know it's possible.  I'm just facing a wall of fear right now.         Mostly about what people will think about  my faith.           My God is real, and he is present in every moment.         I have no doubt.         I have plenty of real life examples to prove it.        I have to share them with you,         because something in me won't let me not.                 So, for e

The Trtl Travel Pillow: It's the Best Travel Pillow which isn't a Pillow At All!

Image
I’ve tried various brands and types of travel pillows ---from the inflatable kind that you have to inflate prior to every flight to the squishy bulky kind that is less than inconvenient to keep clean and available during your travel day. But, the first time I tried the Trtl travel pillow I knew my search was over. Think about it. How much does your head weigh? Most estimates say about 10 pounds. That explains why my neck is so sore after I sleep on an airplane. Ten minutes into my nap my neck muscles relax and forget their job of keeping that 10-pound noggin of mine in place. That’s when the painful snap of total relaxation sends a shooting pain down the base of my neck and instantly wakes me from my resting experience.s What is the best way to sleep on the plane? In first class of course. But even if you do splurge and buy a first class seat, you’ll still need to figure out how to keep your head and neck aligned for rest and comfort. You’ll need a pillow of some sort.
