    I am an 81 year old widow and very active in the dating and relationship world and I highly recommend Steve Harvey's book ACT LIKE A LADY--THINK LIKE A MAN. Every woman should read!!

      You would be surprised how older women can enjoy a romantic relationship even more than when they were younger . Those women can look better and the maturity helps them to be able to handle a relationship better than when they , too. I have found that dating is the same at any age.

      I do find Mr Harvey to be sexist and rather crude. Sorry but I am not interested. And women and men aren't that different but our warped society makes us think so sadly. I think that it's great that you date and so do I at seventy. Time goes too fast

    1. What your love language is?
    2. Where do you see in 5 years from now?
    3. What you can stand in your life?
    4. What is your financially status now?
    5. What is your greatest passion and joy?
    Amen.....

      A man wouldn't ask what my "love language" is. No man I've ever known talks that way or would even know what "love language" is referring to. As for "What you can stand in your life?," what does that mean? What you can stand....hmmm. Nope...I don't know what that means. Men I've known have asked, or tried to ascertain on their own, what my financial status is. Men determine what a woman's passion/joy is by spending time w/her doing different things, asking what she does for fun in her spare time. No man has ever asked me where I see myself 5 yrs from now...even the man I married years ago. A man MIGHT ask what my plans are for the coming year or two.

      @@Honeycombe88 My thoughts exactly. Especially 1, 3 and 4. First one - if you have IQ larger than your shoe size and you are willing to stay around long enough to figure that one out yourself, you wouldn't ask for digested manual. Third one is alarming, to put it mildly. What is he planning of putting you through if inquiring about your tolerance/endurance levels? Number 4. is red flag. I get men get rip off in divorce process and through financial breaks, however, no man with stable income (not great, just stable and sufficient) would ask this question, unless he is dating a woman with 6 minor children without income and alimony. Even than is easier not to date her than to ask this question which is always a red flag regardless the gender of a person asking.

    So far any men who asked me about my love language and any other digging questions like these, was a narcissist who wanted a shortcut to my emotions so he could use and abuse me faster. It was weird when they tried faking giving me everything I said i desired or showing me my love language giving me what i wanted way too fast early on.

    More and more children, people are growing up without parents or parents that didn't care or who were on drugs who never got any of their emotional needs taken care of let alone their healthy needs food clothing clean clothes, so this is what we run into once society breaks down, and people don't care about each other anymore. The only thing they care about is themselves that their needs are being taken care of. Which means to me that somewhere in there growing up years they were never taught or they didn't get their needs met.

    I'm on my way on loving myself for many years now, and I enjoy every day being me. Connecting with my inner childs and taking me as I am today, really took it's time - it took seven years.
    And I didn't date for seven years as well, whitch was my own decision, because I wanted to feel comfortable with myself first and I wanted to get to known to myself.
    Not long ago something changed. I changed the way I was really seeing myself and started to love every part of being me.
    Now I'm ready for dating again.

    Aenna Burda.was the creator of sewing patterns. "The stones that were thrown at me I used to build a wonderful staircase." Starting as a employee in her future husband's family publishing business, she had revolutionary ideas about sewing. That publishing house later served as a vehicle to print her patterns. In those times women were literally forced into marriage. Going it alone was financially impossible except for those who inherited a fortune. Aenne Burde had many a nut to crack. Her husband was against her ideas although he was facing bankruptcy after WW2. She just didn't give up! Many of her quotes are still used today. "Love takes time to grow". This is a case of love which moved mountains.

    I think that because things are too accelerated now and people "are not asking the right questions, could be , on the woman's part, we don't want to come off looking like a "prude" for stating our boundaries to wait for the sexual level. Also it is a fear that the guy will think or pity us by saying something like "Oh, I see. You must have been really hurt in the past." That is a red flag since it is not considering our waiting is for other deeper reasons. Anyone agree?

    I have been in a relationship for several months. We’re taking it slow. We are both divorced with grown children, were single for a couple years and are building trust, balancing family, work and activities. His job is going to be ending. I took your advice and offered space. I waited for him to contact me. He did at least once daily. This past Friday, my son was admitted to a hospital for depression and anxiety. I tried others but no one answered their phones. I reached out to my man. He said he’s on his way. He saw me drunk, ugly crying, transparent and authentic. I’m pretty certain he said “I love you”. I sobered up quickly and asked him to repeat because I wanted to make sure I heard correctly 😂 I know I love him. Do you recommend I wait for him to say it or volunteer my feelings?

      That's heart warming. Sounds like you're on a winner there. I am pleased for you....
      My man said I do really love you - (he doesn't bandy lovey dovey words lightly). It was on the phone so I nearly fell over backwards. I should have asked him to repeat but I pussy footed in my response. He was in Andalucia at the time and had had a drink.
      I get that sometimes he puts his many other lady friends first in Mojacar & he's making a life for himself out there. He said he comes back to Dorset to deal with his place here but he has nothing to come back for....obviously I don't feel I am a priority. Then he said recently "we have our ups and down" what does he mean by that? I have opened up to him and tried to be mature about my feelings but I don't think I'm a priority. He blows hot and cold.& It leaves me agitated and down despite my being an optimist sometimes he seems to want to take away my happiness? I am confused.
      He lives in Mojacar most of the year and I live in England. He tells me he has visiting lady friends but they sleep in the guest room! Then he asked when I was coming over. (Followed by "you'll have to pay your way") I always do.(he is very parsimonious) I buy him presents and drinks but it's a struggle as he is financially stable with two homes. I am generous but he extracts things out of me. I have never had a birthday or Xmas gift. So I am finding it going nowhere - yet when he's had a drink or over in England three times a year he's attentive.or is that because I accept so little. I feel I am living in a fools paradise. I am feeling cut off !
      Like I am taken out of the cupboard and then put back when it suits him. I also haven't met his friends and family. I went to get him a card at his sister's shop and introduced myself! In the end! She was surprised him being a private person he must think of me as a fool. I was assertive for once! Then I saw his brother at the beach.
      But I wasn't invited to his birthday recently he said it's family only. But it was Frances (long time women friend whom he said was like family! ) and another two friends a couple, they with his siblings spent birthday at a restaurant. I was hurt badly. We made a meeting on the beach and I took wine and a picnic but it was somewhat of a damp squib. Esp when he asked me to bring everything as he'd turned his freezer off ready to go back in two days to Spain and he had no food in the interim.
      The only good thing is I am not giving into demands of his for sex. Then I'd feel really bad. It's been a long time but I have to break free. I invested too much time. Hoping I was getting an extended family & some joy....
      I had asked him two weeks previously to leave his Aug birthday free I would take him out. He never answered. So then said it's all arranged & has been for some time. You can take me out another evening. Soul destroying. I feel I am with a narcissist. But naive I am unsure I shouldn't be as my mother was that way and I put up with really bad treatment I don't know why.
      Gosh I didn't mean to be so long winded but in my heart I know it's a no no. But he then gushes super love and says he wants more intimacy (I withold) bit difficult 2000 miles away! Help. Any advice would be welcome. Peace ☮️ out

    I agree with you on all points! I’m so glad I found this channel because a lot of things you say I have always felt but I’ve been accused of being old-school. It’s comforting to know that I’m not on the wrong path. I lost my husband nine years ago. By the way I am sorry for your loss as well. I know how gut wrenching grief can be. It’s something that really never goes away , your loss as well as my widowhood will be part of my every day for the rest of my life. With that said I found the dating sites to be depressing. I was on them a year and a half after my husband passed because before he died of a catastrophic illness he told me that he did not want me sitting home alone for too long. Trying to navigate my way through the grief and dealing with the dating site just compounded things for me so I’ve been off them for quite some time. I haven’t found anyone yet but while I’m waiting and manifesting and trying to circulate I am educating myself. I think if a lot of people and please don’t take this personally it’s not just women or not just men but people need to take the time to learn about things. And that really means anything. After my husband died I read 10 books on grief and loss to try to learn about it. When I went through menopause lol I read all these books, And listened to podcasts to try to educate myself on what was happening to my body so I could navigate through it as best as I could. I think if people just got off of TikTok lol and research some things which is so much easier today! Because of the Internet we could learn so much. Whenever man comes along on my path I know I’m gonna be ready because I’ve been reading and researching and focusing on aspects of my behavior that I can smooth out so when my encounter comes I know I will be ready. Keep the great material coming coming! You and John Gray are my new ’go to’ 🙏🏻😀🍁

      Dear widow, I 'd like to give you my view being in the same position as you are. As soon as menopause is over, men only see you as "nurse or purse". They haven't got any genuine interest in you anymore. You don't need to believe me, just be watchful and honest to yourself. That being said I wish you the very best future you can obtain. Good luck, God bless!

Do women tend to have dating and/or relationship expectations of you because of your background? What have you found to be frustrating in the dating game? What is the craziest dating experience you have had? How many valets have you paid for? Lol...

    I agree with you with a lot . Fact is a child predator is more incline to go after a child with no male or father figure around. A man today who preys on women goes after your vulnerability and later uses it against you. If a man truly ignores your pains or stressor goes straight to how hey let's have fun is out for himself. The credit thing is yes a critical question. I have learned all to believe everything your saying by being played and the heartache was I TRULY THOUGHT I WAS SMARTER MORE INTELLIGENT, I worked in a federal penitentiary volunteered for domestic violence. Believe me it can happen to anyone, I thought I was smarter now wow 100,000 taken from me. Now ladies gaurd yourself with redflags . Your gut never ever lies. You can never be too careful. God bless
